Surprise

Hi Everyone,

I have used a Penny Johnson image called Surprise and it's currently on sale in the store with a whopping 40% off!  I think this stamp can be used for birthdays as well as Christmas and I really enjoyed colouring it with my copics.

Annabelle and Tree

Hi Peeps,

I'm back again with yet another creation.  I have used one of the new Wild Rose Studio Stamps, another cutie.  I've also tried a different stitch on my sewing machine and I have a new camera.  Sill getting used to it though, so I hope my photography improves over the coming weeks.  Perhaps I need to enroll in an evening class.

I have added some crystals to the corners.  If you click on the picture it should enlarge.

Hi Everyone,

Hope your all enjoying the weekend.  I used to be scared when I saw white on white challenges, but now I just love them, they are just so effective and make fabulous Christmas cards.

I have used one of the Snoesjes Stamps by Marianne Design, Decorating, which I paired up perfectly with the Christmas Tree which I have cut and decoupaged in sections to give some depth.

The image has been coloured with Copics ranging from C9 through to C00.

As always more pictures on my blog HERE.

Christmas in August

Hi Peeps,

I'm back again and this time with my first christmas card done for 2012, only another 99 to do, lol.  Look at this fabulous Christmas Tree, one of Marianne Designs new release dies. It's gorgeous.  I've added some liquid applique and stardust stickles for some added dimension.

The papers are from Marianne Designs Pretty Paper Bloc Warm Winter Wishes. The two adorable images are also by Marianne Design and if you are interested please email Nikki.

The gorgeous berries and Vintage green lace are also Marianne Designs along with the large snowflake in the top left hand corner and the postage stamps on the right, again please email Nikki if you are interested in these. I have also added some flat backed pearls into the centres of the Tim Holtz snowflake edge.

Shimmer Bean

Hiya Everyone,

A little cutie for you today. I have used The Greeting Farm image called Shimmer Bean. Doesn't she have gorgeous locks of hair? I have cut her out and mounted her onto a spellbinders beaded ovals diecut and added some Tim Holtz Victorian Velvet Distress Ink to the individual beads.

The sentiment comes with the image, I seperated it and mounted it using spellbinders circles die. The grey paper is from the new Glitz French Kiss 6 x 6 paper pad and the pink floral paper is by Magnolia. For the leaves evolving from the sentiment I have used Marianne Design Decorative Elegance LR0157. I have also added some flat back pearls, a must for anyone's stash.

Just Dies

Hi Everyone,

Tracy here and I've been playing around with my Marianne Dies and look what I created.........

First up is my little heart tin. I have covered the tin in Perfect Paper. I have had this an age and don't even know if it still exists in blogland. You paint it on and when it dry it's like handmade paper.

I have used the Marianne Designs Creatables Key LR0193 and Marianne D Roses

Next up is my Bits and Bob's Box.

I have used:-

Marianne Designs Creatables Double Frame LR0141

Mariane Designs Creatables Classic Scissors LR0194

Marianne Designs Creatables Vintage Scissor LR0195
Roses are Marianne Design too

The Paper is also by Marianne Design - Elines Pretty Paper Bloc pale pastels

I also cut the scissors out onto shrink plastic, heated with my heat gun to make little scissor charms. They are so cute.

I also made a little handbag charm too. After I shrank the scissors I added gold embossing powder and silver embossing powder.

Hugs Tracy

Ahoy There Mateys

Hi there Peeps,

I'm back again with more colouring with pencils on kraft cardstock, just love how the white pops off the cardstock. I have used "Sailor Andy" by High Hopes available from BunnyZoe.

I have again used that fabulous paper pad by Authentiqe "Comfort and Familiar" and again made a flower using the Doily and Peony Magnolia Doohickey Dies and placed a Kaisercraft Blooms (Sage) in the centre.

I also added a little boat charm made using the Marianne D Creatables Classic Boats Postmarks" on the edges of the kraft stock.

Hugs Tracy

I have used the new Kaisercraft clear stamp "Postmarks" on the edges of the kraft stock.

Val Ventura

Hi Peeps,

Today I have used a Kenny K Stamp called Val Ventura complimented by those fabulous Authentique papers called "Comfort and Familiar". They are good quality double sided papers, love using them for making flowers because they are double sided you don't end up with white showing from underneath.

I cut the image out using spellbinders Labels 10 and added some stamping around the edge using a Stempleglede stamp from the grunge collection.

I made the postcard using the new Kaisercraft "Postcards" clear stamp available HERE. I know the first order sold out but there are more on the way. I have also added 4mm and 8mm brads to the scallops of the speallbinders diecut.

I used the Magnolia Doohickey Dies Peony and Doily, sprayed them with some glimmer mist pearl spray and srunched them up. I placed a Kaisercraft latte pearl brad in the centre for that finishing touch. I also added another Magnolia Doohickey Heart Swirl.

Knitting Daisy

Hi Everyone,

Have you seen that Nikki has got the new Marianne Design Knitting Daisy in stock...... well she's a reall cutie. Take a peek at what I made.......
