The heating is on and football is cancelled....

Hope everyone is well. Its so cold today that I put the heating on as soon as Adam left to play football.  Next thing I know he's back because the game is cancelled but luckily he headed straight for the thermostat and turned it up some more which is not like him so it must be cold.....

I started this first card a couple of weeks ago and no, I don't really want it to snow:


The words have been cut out of red card using my Cameo and then I glued Christmas paper to the back of the card. The little penguin is also a Cameo image. Snowflakes added and glittered although you cannot see the glitter at all on this picture.

This next card I have not added a sentiment to so that it can be used as a Birthday card or Thank you card etc:



This is a Tumble Tizzy digi image which I coloured using Promarkers. I may add something more to the card as I am not completely happy with it but I will leave that for another day.

Another Christmas Card

I thought I was doing well starting Christmas cards a few months ago but then things came to a stand still and I cannot believe how little time is left (for me anyway). So here is another card:


I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:
Crafty Hazelnuts Christmas Challenge Challenge 94 to include snowflakes
Challenges 4 Everybody Challenge 5 Anything Goes

The gorgeous penguin digi image is by Alice Smith from Clip Art and I coloured this in using Promarkers. The embellishments have been cut using various designs on the Cameo and glitter added.

A few more....

I love the Tumble Ted & Tizzy digi images and plan to use them a lot more. This one is Tizzy dressing up.  I used promarkers to colour the image and simple cut outs to embellish



This next card has been made using a beautiful image from Saturated Canary which is a really great site and has gorgeous digital images. (The image was a freebie when I downloaded it).

Sorry that the picture isn't fantastic - it makes the card look bowed but it isn't. Anyway, I used promarkers again to colour in and on the brown coloured card I used glitter to highlight the skirt and on the pink card I used tiny stones to highlight the skirt.

I just love how the two different cards look and both are destined for people I know whose birthdays are soon:




Keep Fit Fanatic

This was a card I made for a keep fit fanatic who I work with but it I think it expressed my feelings  more than hers.....

The image is a rubber stamp from the Murray & Ethel Set 1 and I used promarkers to colour it in.
