Friday Sketcher Challenge'

This card is for Friday Sketchers. I used a beautiful Penny Black stamp (my dear friend Yvette's property) which I coloured with Promarkers and I added a glitter finish. I used a Marianne Design die. Papers are from my ever growing craft stash.

I made my flowers using a Marianne Design flower die, and to finish them off I added a glitter detail and a jewel. The roses are made using clay and then painted with red paint. The red paint on a white clay makes the flowers pink which is a perfect match to all the other embellishments. Leaves are made using my dear friend Yvette's Martha Stewart punch and emboss system.

do crafts weekly challenge entry card

This is my take on do crafts sketch challenge. I hope you like it.
I stamped a greeting, and die-cut snowflake embellishments and blue squares. Then I attached three ribbons to a white card and voila. I can't bear to part with my Christmas craft stash just yet.

Crafting afternoon with my son


I spent an afternoon crafting with my 4 year old son. We were both busy at work, and enjoyed ourselves very much. He has caught the crafting bug as well.

Sarah Kay Christmas card

The Sarah Kay stamp used in this card is one of my favorites. I have coloured it in with Promarkers, and put glitter on (my very first go on Quickie Glue pen). I decorated all the panels with flowers, swirls and a Christmas sentiment (cut with my trusted Cuttlebug).  I had a pack of oriental card blanks (a screen I think), and tried something different ie. making a shaped Christmas card. I hope you like it.
