Christmas Card Club - Layers

 Good morning and here is another card for the Christmas Card Club.  The theme this time is "Lots of Layers" and it was chosen by Lorrraine.

My Card

My card is almost, but not quite, an A5 card but I chopped a bit off the side for symmetry. As you can see there are certainly plenty of layers .

I used matte and mirror silver card stock, from Crafter's Companion, which makes it very difficult to photograph but at least it doesn't look black which sometimes happens.

Dies used: John Next Door - Frame from Calling Angels and snowflakes are Baroque Snowflakes.

Presscut- Notched Rectangles

Sue Wilson - Let it Snow die.

The weather has been quite autumnal for the last few days. I do hope you are all well and enjoying life.

Take care.

Bouquet of Flowers at MAWTT

 Good  morning and it's time for a new challenge at MAWTT. The theme has been chosen by Jenny and she wants to see bouquets of flowers. Who doesn't like to see flowers?

The sun is shining and looks like the start of a fine weekend.

My Card

 

This card looks quite washed but in real life it is not quite this pale.I used two small toppers from a Hunkydory pack which was a freebie I think from one of the craft shows I attended some years ago. I matted the toppers and card with silver mirrror card and diecut the Crafter's Companion butterflies from the same silver cards.

Please pop over to the blog and check out the cards made by the rest of the DT.

Take care and have a good weekend.

Sentiments for Christmas Card Club

Good morning and apologies to Rachel and my CCC friends for being so late with my card. The theme this time is Christmas Sentiments.

Card #1

 

Recipe

7" x 5" card - made from Limetree Crafts card stock

acetate - Limetree Crafts 

sentiment paper - unknown digital from stash

snowflake die - The Works

This was the most difficult card to photograph! From the front I caught my own reflection, turning to one side I got the reflections from the hedge outside, turning it the other way I got the reflection of the trees, (we have two very large windows), I was also catching the reflection of the vertical blinds, when I closed them trying to stop the reflections, making it look striped! Arrgh! Ready to scream at this point. I really cannot believe I actually managed to get this with no reflection in the end having moved things around the room into various positions. If at first you don't succeed try, try, try again - and again, and again and again ....😁😂

Card# 2

This one is an extremely simple card.  The image is from a 12" Christmas paper pad which I bought from Crafters Companion a couple of years ago. There are four lovely images on the page. I just matted it onto turquoise card stock, attached it to 7" base card and added pearls. Easy peasy.  Two very flat cards to post.

Say It With a Sentiment at 12 MoC

Hello to you all.  I am back with my card for the 12 Months of Christmas Link Up.  As always you can make whatever you like for our challenge as long as it is Christmas. However, we do have a twist each month and this time the twist is to use a sentiment or word art as the focus of your card. You are welcome to us an image too but the sentiment must have top billing, not the image. If you want the chance to win this month's featured paper pack be sure to follow the twist. Our sponsor is Decosse's Dynamite Doodles.

Cute Christmas at Winter Wonderland

Good morning and I hope this finds you all well. We've had a couple of days of really heavy rain, but that's not a problem.  I didn't have to go out so just curled up in front of the log burner.

It's time for another challenge at Winter Wonderland.  Our sponsor is Imagine That Digi Stamp.

My Card

  Recipe

5" x 7" blue base card - Hobbycraft 

white card to mat - from stash

silver glitter card - Crafter's Companion

digi backing paper - from stash

sponsors image - Christmas Owl

I used a pre-coloured image and superimposed it onto the digital backing paper and they were a good match for each other. Lots of glitter - well it is for Christmas - and some clear gems to highlight the stars.

Kris is offering the winner a $10 dollar coupon to spend instore - so what are you waiting for?  Why not pop across to the blog and see which images my teamies have used on their cards?  There are some great creations to give you inspiration.

Take care and have fun.
