Molly's card

This is the Christmas card that Molly will be sending out this year. It is a Mo Manning image coloured in copics and sparkled with Diamond Stickles. The background paper is a glittered MME - Sweet Dreams. The bow is a double bow that I tied with the Bowdabra, love that bowdabra!

Frosty

This image is from Mo Manning. Coloured with copics, sparkled and mounted on sparkle paper. I am covered in sparkles. I am starting a series of Mo Manning christmas cards.

Frostwood Trees

I picked up my StampinUp order today and wanted to play in the 411 challenge. I used the sketch from the challenge and created the folded trees from Connie's website. The trees are made from the Frostwood Lodge designer paper. The sentiment is from the curly cute set.

Post it

I paper pieced Raymond the Golfer to play along in the Krafty Kimmie challenge this week. I made up the image in a post it note holder. The holder was a make and take at last years Kimmie Krafty Day. I am so looking forward to this years krafty day on October 16th. The paper is from Basic Grey - Oxford.

Tree Fairy

This image is Tree Fairy by Kraftin Kimmie stamps. The challenge this week is a "Blast from the Past". We are challenged to use the first stamp purchased from Kraftin Kimmie. Although she may not have been my first stamp she is definately one of my favourites. The beautiful butterfly and the leaf scroll are dies cut from Cherry Lyn designs. The butterfly is actually two pieces with the dark purple wings lifted off the page. I found that the dies punch much easier once my wonderful husband brought me home a metal plate that I run through the cuttlebug with the dies. I added additional flora bling and of course highlights with stickles.
