Large cards:
Used a4 card stock, folded in half like for normal card then folded front half over on itself, forming a zigzag. The red card was done using computer down load papers, misted with kids blow pens for some colour. The image is new sarah kay xmas stamp, coloured with promarkers, peel offs added to edge to give tidy look. Blue card is dovecraft xmas paper stock, image is rubber stamp brand not sure, coloured with promarkers then mounted onto matching card stock may add some more to either card latter.



Another set (green):
Used dark green cut into square card, papers were from dovecraft xmas set layered a section onto the left over card sticking the ribbon behind it to hold it in place, choose a simple plain stamped image uncoloured done in green stazon ink pad may add some snowflakes or brads later. The lighter card is using A4 card stock cut down to size as before, used scrap backing paper from the dovecraft selection, edged with peel offs to leave tidy edge, anya image coloured in with promarkers mounted on the cut off card, ribbon secured behind this before mounting on main card may add sentiment later.




Some Christmas:
Square cards I managed to make while healing after accident, Red 14cm square card - digital download spotted card, with digital stamp, finished off with some matching ribbon and a peel off sentiment. The green card was from dovecraft paper pack with peel offs layed onto green card then cut out, mounted on toppers made with card stock and scraps of the paper, glued snowflakes to corners. Red girl with holly is a rubber stamp not sure brand, red card stock with dovecraft papers from last year, still needs a little something tho but not sure what will fit.

Hey everyone, havent been doing much crafting this last month, was in a bad accident on the 3rd, ended up with a broken pelvis, not fun at all, on bed rest in hospital all I could do was colour in stamped images my buddy sent me. On the mend now, I'm home but not able to do much at the moment, managed to make 1 card with alot of help from my hubby, it was for a special nurse who just lost her mum, hope she likes the card, shes one of the most hard working nurses I've met.

Blue Accordion Christmas card:
Used 2 full size a4 sheets of good quility card stock, and 2 strips from same colour card stock to make a back join so could use all sections of the dl folds. Lined just over half each page with dovecraft christmas paper pack, then stamped out some christmas images from my see d's selection sets, I layered them on slightly darker card stock then mounted the inside images with dst and outside with foam pads, I took this photo then decided needed a bit of colour so added some colour using sukura pens and water. Just to give them a bit of a sparkle. Finished off with peel off borders and some decorative peel offs.















Cuttlebug embossed set:
New set of cards for christmas using the christmas folders in the cuttlebug, the tree one could have been better not sure why it's not embossing as well as normal, I added glitter glue to one and gems to the other 2 for some depth, then finished them off with some christmas tone ribbons. Layered onto white and cream card stock.
