Heads Up For An Early Christmas Pressie!!!

Happy Christmas Eve all!

Just a quick heads up to head on over to Dude Time Doodles!

*Nudge* *Wink*

You might find Christmas has come a little bit early!

I'd also like to take this opportunity to wish you a very Merry Christmas!

I hope that Santa is good to you & that you have a wonderful time with Family & Friends!

For those of you who don't celebrate Christmas,

Have a wonderful Sunday!

Happy Birthday

It's Christmas Eve! Yayyyy!!! Only one more sleep till Santa!

Thought I'd share this card I made recently for a friends Birthday!

I was clearly having a pink & girly moment!!!

I used an A5 card blank for the base & the DP I have used is 

a digital freebie I got absolutely eons ago!

I've matted it onto plain pink craft paper.

I've actually used the same paper twice but printed it out in two different sizes, 

I love the effect this gives!

The image is Princess Jennifer Latte Brest Cancer Awareness,

by the very talented Tracey Malnofski.

Such a versatile image & I so love her little face!

I added the sentiment to the image before printing out.

I coloured her up with promarkers, added some ribbon detail & some 

little pink photo corners!

I handmade the flowers using a patterned vellum & added some 

little matching diecut  leaves !

I also added some touches of glamour dust for a bit of sparkle!

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you like her!

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges if I may:

We're almost there!! Yay!!!

It's time for a new challenge at 

Dude Time Doodles!

This week, we want to see a project inspired by 

Your Favourite Christmas Movie!

Now, I was torn as I have so many favourites but.....

Yep, I love The Snowman!!!

I also love all the old Black & White movies!

 I opted to go monochrome to reflect this!!!

The image I have used is called

Duck The Snowman Warrior

he is of course from Dude Time Doodles

I've used him before on this card

I used a 5"x5" card blank 

The layout was the sketch from

Scrap & Stamp Sketch Challenge

The DP I have used was courtesy of Jak Heath.

She added these freebies to her blog just as I was looking for a B&W paper!

Thanks Jak!!!

I coloured the snowman with Promarkers.

 I liquid embossed the snowballs using Anita's 3D Gloss & some glittery bits

 to the snow & the snowman with my Sakura Clear Star pen!

I cut him out with a nestie & also cut out a matt of 

plain black to go behind him.

The only additional embellishments I added were 3 black self adhesive gems.

I decorated the inside of the card a little to tie in with the front.

I enjoy doing this as it's a change from adding inserts, 

it helps to balance out the weight of the card too!

Thanks for looking & I hope you can find time to play in our latest challenge at

Dude Time Doodles!!!
