Challenge #88 Christmas Carol/Song

We have a new challenge at IAAS. The theme is to make a card based on a Christmas Carol or Song and it was chosen by me.

My Card

This is one of my favourite Christmas stamps and I use it a lot.  It looks so different depending on the colour and embellishments used.  It is Midnight Clear by Our Daily Bread Designs (now called Divinity Designs).

Why not pop across to the blog and check out what my teamies have produced.  It's quite inspirational to see the different songs/carols chosen and the various methods used to depict them.

The sun is shining here although it is quite chilly. Hopefully you are having some sun too.

Have a good day.

Christmas With No Image at IAAS

Good morning.  The theme for our challenge at IAAS is Christmas with no image although obviously diecuts and embellishments are welcome. Apologies again for being a day late with my DT card.

My Card

Recipe

5" x 7" base card

Stamp " Midnight Clear" - ODBD (Now Divinity Designs)

Pearlescent blue ink pad

poinsettia die - Marianne

twiggy leaves - Spellbinders

A2 Bracket Borders 1 - Spellbinders

I love this stamp and it suits the style of card so I use it often just changing the  colour and slightly different bracket border.

Why not pop over to the blog and check out the gorgeous card from my team mates? If you still have any Christmas cards to make you might take some inspiration there.

That's all for today so take care.

Hot Colours At OSAAT

Good morning to all my friends and fellow bloggers.  Thanks for stopping by. It's time for challenge # 262  at One Stitch At A Time.  The challenge is Anything Goes With Hot Colours. Now I am definitely not one for hot colours or bright colours.  Ask for pastels or purples and I'm your girl!  So as you can imagine I did have a bit of a struggle.  I'm not totally happy, but it is what it is I'm afraid!

Please scroll down to the previous post if you are looking for my CCC card.

Winter Blossoms at Winter Wonderland

Good morning.  We had a couple of glorious days and then wham! Back to cold and windy.  Ah, the good old British weather!

This is my DT post for the Winter Wonderland challenge "Winter Blossoms" which was chosen by Marie . This isn't the card I planned to make.  I have a lovely John Lockwood poinsettia stamp set I got last year but could I find it?  Of course I could - but not until I had gone with Plan B!  Instead of being in the box with my Christmas stamps I had inadvertently put it with the sentiment stamps.  Never mind, this is one of my favourite Christmas stamps anyway and so I added the poinsettia die cuts and holly to fit in with the winter blossom theme.

Our sponsors this time are Bugaboo Stamps who are giving seven  images from their online store, and the Craft Barn, who are offering a £10 voucher to spend in store.

My Card

I used the bracket border to shape the base of the card and coloured a border with the same ink I used for stamping. I'm sorry that it's not a very clear image.

We would love you to join in so please pop over to the challenge blog and check out the fabulous inspiration from the rest of the DT. Please remember that we only accept Christmas projects!

Have a great day.  Take care.

Anything Goes ... With Fancy Borders at OSAAT

Hello to all my friends and fellow bloggers.  Thanks for dropping by to visit.   Hope all you UK mums get thoroughly spoiled on this Mothering Sunday.  Well the snow eventually disappeared yesterday.  In fact once the thaw started it  actually happened very quickly but it was bitterly cold and carried on with snow and hail showers most of the day but didn't lay at all, thank goodness.  Unfortunately it is snowing again this morning although not so heavily today.

Mr Blogger is really playing me up and over the last few days it is not allowing me to leave comments.  Rather, I can type out the comment and press the enter button but then nothing happens.  I can reload, retype  but still nothing. This is happening on the majority of blogs but not all so if you have had a comment from it is a miracle.  I just wanted to let you know that I am really visiting your blogs but not able to leave my comments!   I will keep trying.

Please scroll down if you  are looking for my Christmas Card Club entry.

It's time for OSAAT Challenge #257 which is to use Fancy Borders.  So get out all your dies and punches and see what you come up with.

My Card

Recipe

7" square base card - Anne Marie Designs

Sentiment - "Just Between Friends" from Stitchy Stamps

white card stock - Papermania

Pink pearlescent card stock - Pennies Worth

A2 Bracket Borders One - Spellbinders

Oval Bliss - Spellbinders

Beautiful Borders - Our Daily Bread Designs

Ribbon and pearls - from Stash

Apart from die cutting all the pieces this card just made itself.  The Just Between Friends sentiment pack has five great sentiments and some graphics too so well worth taking a look in the store.  We would love you to pop over to the blog and see what the DT have produced and if you want to join in you can win a coupon to spend in the store.

Well that's all from me today.  Keep warm and well!!

Good morning to you all - and an incredibly cold and frosty one it is too.  I think winter has arrived brrr!

A male card today and one which I take great pleasure in showing because the message is just great.

base card - platinum pearlescent card  Brothersleep

white ribbed card - Brothersleep

Spellbinders - Resplendent Rectangles

Marianne Craftables - Tiny Trees
stamped image - Keep Climbing from Our Daily Bread Designs

sentiment - computer generated

The base card is just short of a C5 card.  5 x 7" was too small and C5 was just  a wee bit too big/  The backing paper is a digital one which started life as brown and orange plaid and I digitally altered it to match my card. I have just realised that I have no black/grey design/backing papers at all so I will really have to remedy that.  I typed the quote (an internet find) onto parchment paper and then fussy cut  a banner for it.

Just a very short post today. Hope you are all coping and keeping warm  The only place to be is in your craft room today I think.

Scenic View

Good morning to all my friends, fellow bloggers and anybody who just happened along by chance.  If that is the case then I hope you like what you see and I would love for you to leave a comment.  Happy St Patrick's day to any Irish bloggers - and Happy Birthday to my brother!

My card today is for a young man who needs a little love and encouragement.

Our Daily Bread Designs Sentiment - Rubber stamp "Keep Climbing" 

Creative Expressions - Rubber stamp "Scenic View"

Creative Expressions die - Auverne 

Die'sire Embossalicious folder - Argyle

Oak leaf and maple leaf punches 

Green pearlescent card from stash

Base card is a 5" x 7" tent fold card made from Papermania card stock. I used the letter press technique with the embossing folder and Brilliance Pearlescent Ivy ink pad.  I used the same ink to stamp the image and sentiment and then die cut it with Sue Wilson's Auverne die from the French collection.  I really like the monochrome look of this card. I still struggle with male cards but I'm happy with this one.

Hope you are all keeping well. 

Christmas Card Club # 17 - Anything But A Card

Good morning to all  my friends and fellow bloggers. Hope you are all doing okay and feeling well.  If not then please take care and I hope you feel better soon.

 Goodness me, I cannot believe just how quickly these two weeks fly by.  This time it was Lizzie's choice and she asked us to make anything but a card!  Well, I initially thought I would make a couple of gift tags but then decided on a Christmas candle.  So now I have one less card than I thought I would - but I have my first Christmas present instead!   Yay!!  Now that is definitely a first for me to have a Christmas present so early in the year.  I have heard that some people buy their gifts in the January sales but I'm not that organised.  I dislike shopping at the best of times so the thought of battling the sales crowds makes me shudder.  Ugh!

My Project

(It's weird because the sentiment looks very wonky in the picture but it doesn't on the actual candle!)

I bought quite a few candles a few months ago,  from Asda I think, so that I would have some available if I decided to decorate one, so that was a good thing.  I also bought the little glass stands at the same time so I am certainly well prepared.  I should have been a Boy Scout!

 I used Little Ivy stamp from LOTV and coloured the image with Promarkers.   The sentiment is from JustRite Elegant Christmas Swirls which is by my guru Becca from Amazing Paper Grace.  The gorgeous red border is from Beautiful Borders by Our Daily Bread Designs and the little poinsettias are from Wild Orchid Crafts. They were finished with green pearls from Hobby House. Last year when I made these I fastened them up with cellophane and ribbon.  This time I think I will make a box for it so watch out for that in the not too distant future.

I am off to the Great British Craft Festival at Stoneleigh Park  this morning where I will be meeting up with Ang - Mrs Duck - and hopefully John Next Door.  Should be fun!  I was going to say that if anybody else is going to be there just  follow the noise and you will find us - but I forgot that Planet Susie and Ollie's Mam will not be there and  they are  the ones that make the noise, definitely not Ang and I!  No sir! (Sorry Sue's - you know I love you really!!)

I will pop round your blogs this evening and see what everybody has been up to.

All Crafts Challenge - anything but a card

Sunny Yellow

Good morning to you all.  I think my mojo decided to take off - maybe he enjoyed the couple of weeks break when I didn't do anything and doesn't want to start back again! I have started a few cards but not managed to finish anything until now.  So I now have a finished card to show.

My Card

My card is 7" x 5" tent fold made from Anna Marie Designs card stock.  I matted it with yellow pearlescent card and then layered up with SB Elegant Labels 4. I die cut the centre with the largest die from Labels 4 and ran it though the bottom part of M-Bossabilities Framed Petite Labels to get the striped effect, and then ran a Narcissus ink pad over the raised stripes before popping it back.  The sentiment is from ODBD Little Things stamp set and die cut with SB Tranquil Moments. The striped ribbon is from my local haberdashery shop and then a few pearls finished the card. A nice sunny card to reflect the lovely sunny weather we are having.

Hope you are all well and enjoying the sunshine - although I think it is not quite so nice in Scotland I'm sorry to say.  For such a small island we certainly get way different weather from one end to the other, don't we?

Take care!

CCC Challenge - # 15 - Christmas Teddy

Good morning friends and fellow bloggers.  I'm sorry that I have been AWOL for the past two weeks but there were things going on here that meant it was difficult.  I haven't even done any crafting either.  However, hopefully things are just about back to normal now so I am back with my card for the Christmas Card Club challenge. Today it was Sue P's (Planet Susie's) turn to choose the theme which is Christmas Teddies.

If you would like to see what the rest of the girls have made then you will find them in my right side bar.

My Card

Click image  to  enlarge picture.

My card is 6" x 6". It was matted and layered with red card and paper from Papermania "Home For Christmas". My topper is an image from my Greeting Card Factory programme and I think he is really gorgeous.  I love that he is actually clutching his own teddy.  As soon as I saw Sue's subject I knew exactly which image I wanted to use.   The red border across the centre is "Beautiful Borders",  which is an SB die for Our Daily Bread Designs.  The poinsettias are WOC and the ivy corners are a Signature die.  The sentiment was a Polkadoodles magazine freebie stamp a few years ago. And then, of course, some glitter (naturally) and a few pearls from my stash.

Hope you are all well, and if not then I hope you will soon be feeling much better.

For Somebody Special

Good morning.  Hopefully it looks I'm getting back on track a little so here's a card I managed to make yesterday in some snatched time.

Click on image to enlarge picture

The card is for a man so I rummaged in my bit box and came up with these pieces from Papermania Capsule Collection and matted them with black paper also from my bit box.  I'm not sure where the silvery-grey backing paper came from I'm afraid - it was just in there too.  It always feels good to use it doesn't it?  I must admit that sometimes it's much easier to just reach for some new paper or card.  

The stamp is from Our Daily Bread Designs "Bird and Butterfly Labels" which were designed to work with SB Labels 18,  and the sentiment stamp is also ODBD from the "Keep Climbing" set.  I used the mountain stamp from the set a couple of weeks a go.  Both were stamped with Memento black ink. The butterfly is another Fly Sticker and the pearls are from my stash, but both from Hobbycraft I think.

Well the weekend is just about on us so enjoy it, and all you people out there who work - I hope you manage to get some time to relax.  When I was working I found that my weekends were totally tied up with housework, shopping etc.  When I first retired I found the weekends very strange because I wasn't used to having time to myself then and I kept thinking that I should be doing something. Lol!

Highest Mountain

Good afternoon folk.  Well, a mixed bag of weather today.  Extremely heavy frost first thing then very cold and showery, but heavy rain is forecast.  John hasn't taken down the scaffold yet.  He wants to see what happens when we have very heavy rain with the wind blowing in a particularly direction.  In that way he can see whether his repairs have worked.   Since he did it we have had no leaks, but having said that, the rain only comes in with the wind driving the rain.  So it's wait and see.  I have everything crossed! Lol!

My Card

Click on image  to enlarge picture.

My card today is for a young man who is going through a particularly trying time and I think the sentiment is fitting.  I love this ODBD stamp and have used it often.  It was stamped with Brilliance  Pearlescent Ivy onto white card stock and  die cut with  SB Resplendent Rectangles. I then cut the next size die with pearlescent green card.  I used a snippet of green plaid paper from my snippets box and also used a snippet of parchment paper to computer generate the sentiment.  I cut the banner shape by hand because I don't have a banner or pennant die. The pearls are Hobby House white pearls coloured with a green Promarker.  Otherwise I left it quite plain.

By the way, does anybody know who stocks Quietfire Design Stamps in the UK?  I bought one  earlier in the year but cannot remember where I got it from.  I'm hoping that one of you stampers out there can help me.  I don't really want to have to go all the way to Canada to get it - well not literally, although I could go and visit Maureen aka Scrappymo! Lol

Hope this finds you all well and finding time to craft.

Another Mountain

Hi!  Here is my third offering for Darren.

My Card

Click on image to enlarge picture

I cheated a little and used the mountain stamp again from Our Daily Bread Designs  but it just seems so perfect for the occasion.  This time I stamped it in Memento Tuxedo Black and die cut it with SB Resplendent Rectangles.  It just fit the die almost exactly.   I then die cut the Bazill Bling black card stock with the next die up in the set.   I computer generated the quote from Sr Edmund Hillary about his Everest climb and printed it onto parchment. I then hand cut a pennant shape frame and attached it with tiny foam pads . The frame actually looks wider at one side than the other but that really isn't the case.  The fact is my photo is wonky, which makes everything look slightly off.  The striped card is some I  bought from the craft fair at the Motorcycle Museum from a company called "Pennies Worth" and I bought a few different colours because I must admit to liking stripy card/paper.  A few black gems finished it off.  Again, I can add another quote inside when he decides which card he wants.

Yesterday really was an extremely wet day until about 5pm when the rain cleared and it brightened very slightly.  Still, the gardens (and my well!) needed it.  Wonder what today will bring?

Well that's all from me. Hope you all have a great weekend.

Love and hugs from Christine xx

Keep On Climbing

Hello my friends. Yesterday was a beautiful day and so John and I decided to have a day out. We really just wandered around the Cotswold villages, stopping when we felt like it and having a walk round, had lunch and then ended up in Cheltenham - where I just had to pop into Hobbycrafts and the Range. Well, it would have been rude not to!! However, I didn't really see anything I couldn't do without so I just bought a few necessities. I thought I would have a trip out to a "real" craft shop next week where I'm sure I will be able to lighten my wallet. Lol!

My Card

Click on image to enlarge

This is the second card for my nephew to choose from. I did a similar one last year but have changed the sentiments and the dies, although the layout is pretty much the same. The sentiments and the mountain stamp are from Our Daily Bread Designs "Keep Climbing" set. I love this set and use it a lot. The main sentiment is very apt because it is from the book "Kilimanjaro And Beyond" by Barry Finlay. I used SB Resplendent Rectangles and Radiant Rectangles to frame the main sentiment quote. I'm not too happy about the punched leaves in the bottom corner so I think I'll be taking them off and just popping a pearl in the corner. What do you think? The flower and leaf stamps at the top and bottom are Stampendous "Wildflower Sprigs." If  this is the one he chooses I have found a few more quotes about climbing, so I thought he could then choose one to put inside the card.

Now I just have to rack my brains to come up with one more card. Considering making male cards is not my favourite thing I don't think I've done too badly so far.

Well that's all from me today. I hope you all have a good day.

Love and hugs from Christine xx

Matching Card Set

Good evening friends and fellow bloggers!   My poor garden has been sadly neglected what with the bad weather, and then when the weather was reasonable I was out cycling.  So I decided to spend the last couple of days trying to sort it out and make it look neat and tidy again.  The gravel drives and walkways still need quite a bit of weed clearance, but I'm getting there slowly but surely.  My vegetable garden is very much behind this year.  Anyway, enough of that!

My Cards

Click on image to enlarge pictures

I decided to make a set of cards to go into the easel drawer card I made in my last project. In order to mimic the easel card  I used SB Grand Labels 1 to make the card bases and the next layer, and then used  SB Lace Doily.   I used the same ODBD stamp sentiment as the easel card but the rest I computer generated and die cut with SB Classic Squares.  Apart from dotting some pearls on with Cosmic shimmer I decided not to add any further embellishments.  My pearls aren't brilliant, but at least I am getting better.  I used the coloured card stock in the opposite way to make them look slightly different.  So it now makes a nice little gift set.

I have only been out on my bike once this past week for a fairly short ride so I'll have to try and make up for it this coming week.  Tomorrow I am meeting a group of friends I used to work with.  Every three months we get together for lunch and a good old chin wag, so I'm sure we'll have a great time again. Hopefully I will get some more crafting done later in the day.

Have a good day everybody. Love and hugs from Christine xx

Easel Card With Drawer

Good morning everybody. I decided to have a couple of days playing hookey. On Monday I was very tired - thought I would sleep like a top on Sunday night but I guess I was overtired and also had lots on my mind thinking back over the day. Apart from my knees being a bit creaky I was otherwise fine. Other parts of my anatomy were okay too - thank goodness for padded shorts! Lol! Thanks Sue P for the offer of a rubber ring but luckily I didn't need it!  I must confess to not being the world's best sleeper so the tiredness builds up. Anyway, I had a really good night's sleep last night and feel great today!

My Project

Click on image to enlarge picture

 I decided to make an easel card with a drawer since I haven't done one for a while. The actual drawer part measures 14 x 14 cms. I then used Grand Labels 1 to make an overlapping top and base to finish it off nicely. The easel card also measures 14 cms and I again used Grand Labels 1. I used SB Lace Doily Motifs for the centres of the top and base of the easel card, decorating with pearls from my stash. A rose from Wild Orchid Crafts acts as the stopper for the easel, together with some leaves from SB Foliage. The drawer handle is a punched white flower with a a dotty ribbon covered brad. The stamped sentiment is from Our Daily Bread Designs. I do love to use quotes in my work.

I thought this would make a nice gift with some note cards in the drawer. I'll show this in another post since I haven't actually done them yet.

I thought I would also give you a quick peek at my medal! The cheeky little badge was given to me by mum after the very first London to Brighton Bike Ride I did 26 years ago. I put it on every time I reach Brighton !!

I pinned the ribbon so you could see the wording

Well that's it from me today. The sun is shining so I think I'll go out and do some gardening.

Have a good day everybody.

Borrowed Dies -

Good morning dear blog friends. I wouldn't have this card to show at all if it wasn't for a very special lady - Marie-Louise of   Welcome to my World. who very kindly loaned me her set of SB Enchanted Labels 28. Thank you so much Marie-Louise!!

My Card

Click on image to enlarge picture.

I made a hinged card using the enchanted labels set and Centura Pearl card stock. The sentiment, from Our Daily Bread Designs "Little Things",  was stamped onto the same card and die cut with SB Classic Squares Large and mounted onto SB Lacy Squares in pale lemon to tone with the spotted backing paper - from a very old Papermania set. The spots look white in the picture but they are in fact creamy yellow.The pearls and ribbon are from my stash.

You can find a video tutorial for the hinged card on  http://www.amazingpapergrace.com/filigree-hinged-card-tutorial-and-a-giveaway/ and also on http://flowersribbonsandpearls.blogspot.co.uk/2013/04/new-video-tutorials.html.

Yesterday was the most fabulous day and we visited a National Trust property. It was lovely to wander through the gardens - without a coat on !!!!! Let's hope it lasts for a while yet.

Well, that's it from me. Hope you all have a great day!

Enjoy The Little Things

Hi, just a quick post this morning. I had intended to post it yesterday evening and it just went completely out of my mind. I took the picture then I had a phone call - and forgot! Ah well here it is.

My Card

Click on image to enlarge picture

I stamped the Kanban image in black,  heat embossed with clear embossing powder and matted it onto black card. There doesn't appear to be a name on the stamp, or if there is I cannot find it. I have a feeling it is simply called Florals, but I'm probably wrong. By contrast I stamped the sentiment stamp from Our Daily Bread Designs in Versamark onto black card, heat embossed with WOW Opaque Bright White powder, and matted it onto white card. Because the background is quite striking I decided against adding embellishments - but I was tempted!

I hope you all have a good day. We are going to Dunstable to pick up something that John has bought so we will visit a National Trust property whilst we are out. May as well kill two birds with one stone.

Love and hugs from Christine xx

Encouragement

Happy St Patrick's Day to any of my followers who may be   Irish - and particularly to my brother Morgan. Today is his 60th birthday but I always send him a St Patrick's day card too. We call him a hybrid - he's English, born on the Irish National Day and christened with  Welsh names,  Morgan David. I'm sure my parents could have fitted in a bit of Scotland if they had tried! Why not Andrew instead of David? LOL!

Considering it is only the middle of  March it has been a pretty rough few months. Yesterday I had some news which knocked me for a six. A very good friend (her husband was in our wedding party) has just been diagnosed with an extremely aggressive form of leukaemia.   She has just had her first chemo so the sentiment on my card is perfect for the situation I think. She is a fighter.  I thought I would make her a card at each treatment so here is the first.

My Card

 Click on image to enlarge picture.

I have used these two sets of stamps from Our Daily Bread Designs before, but they are particular favourites of mine. The sentiment is from the Keep Climbing set, and the image is from Bird and Butterfly Labels. I stamped them with Tsukineko pigment ink Pearlescent Crimson and die cut with SB Labels 18. The patterned backing papers are Forever Friends and the others are from my stash, together with the pearls. The 3D butterflies are Hobbycraft Fly Stickers.

Well that's it for today. Hope the snow stops soon; it is a real white world here again today!

Black and White

Good morning! I am scheduling this post for tomorrow and looking  out of the window onto a beautiful cold, crisp day. The sky is blue and the sun is shining. But the weatherman says that will change tomorrow because they have forecast snow. Ah well, it is winter after all.

Click on image to enlarge picture.

For my card today I have used stamps from Our Daily Bread Designs "Bird and Butterfly Labels" which is one of my favourites, and the sentiment is from the "Keep Climbing " set.  It is diecut with Spellbinders Labels 18. The backing papers are Dovecraft "Charcoal Prints". The pearls and butterfly are from my stash. I'm a bit unsure of this now because it seems a little busy. I  debated taking  off the stamped image and  putting on something different  and using the image on something else but in the end I left it. 

Well that's it for today. I hope you all enjoy your day and manage to do a little crafting.
