Happy Christmas Dasher

Hi Everyone,

A quick share of a Christmas card I’ve made using the Mojo Monday sketch this week.

I have really been enjoying the Dasher stamp by Stampin’ Up. It’s so versatile! Here I have stamped it in Soft Suede and used my Versamarker pen with Heat n Stick powder to apply glitter to some select areas of the stamp. Of course there is glitter everywhere in this photo because I was in such a hurry to blog it that I haven’t shaken all the loose glitter off yet! lol

Here is the Mojo Monday sketch this week…

The designer series paper that I’ve used in this card is called Just Add Cake, and I’ve used matching cardstocks in So Saffron yellow, Baja Breeze blue and Whisper White of course! The sentiment is from a retired set, but it’s stamped and cut out with the Word Window punch and layered onto the Modern Label punch. I also used the ever popular edgelits to cut the Poppy Parade red designer paper and emboss the edge with the coordinating embossing folder.

Thanks for stopping by to check it out, I’ll be back again soon

Prayer Card

Hi Everyone,

A friend of mine has received some traumatic news in relation to the health of a loved one and I made this card to let her know that she is not alone.

The cross was hand cut so it’s a little wonky, but hey – nothings perfect is it? It’s been embossed with the Lattice Square Embossing Folder. The sentiment is from retired set that I fail to have the name of, but it fits perfectly in the Word Window!

This lovely Wisteria Wonder coloured paper from the  Berry Blossoms Designer Series Paper pack has been machine sewn onto the matching cardstock – gotta love Stampin’ Up for their co-ordination of colours across the whole range, it makes things so very easy!

The flower was made using the Blossom Petals Builder punch and some cardstock scraps in Wisteria Wonder and Whisper White. A few pearls added to the centre and quick misting of Shimmer Paint Mist and a lovely flower is born.

I’ve used the sketch at Freshly Made Sketches this week, well almost!

        

Thanks for checking it out and I look forward to entertaining you some more next week.

Why so long you ask? Well, End of Financial Year for us bookkeepers means I’ll be busy this week doing Payroll EOY for 4 different clients! Yep – busy, busy, busy earning some dollars in order to spend some dollars! lol

Have a great week now, I know I will (sarcasm)
