Fa, La La La the Angels sing....

OMGOSH the count down is on isn't it? I can't believe how fast this year has gone, it feels like it's only really June or something, but so glad it's not weather wise, it's starting to really warm up around here!!!

Today I have to show you a new release image from Crafts and Me.  This lovely Digi is called Casting Down and it's by Sara Burrier.  You can pick one up by clicking on this HERE link:-) 

So I have made another Christmas card, I counted them up and geeze I only have 16.... oops, thought there would have been a few more than that, but lucky I don't have to send out that many - so I should be ok in that department!! So here she is, a beautiful angel singing fa la la la- well I think she is anyway!!!  I hope you love her as much as me:-)

I have coloured her in my RV copic's as I wanted her to be in a slightly softer pink than what the R's give you.  Her wings are covered in Atyou Spica in Clear - gosh I love those pens!! and the raised parts of the wings is Liquid Pearls. I have also given her hair a touch up with the Gold Atyou Spica Pen. My Fa La La La paper is by Jillibean Soup, and I've used some Kaiser Craft flowers along with some Wild Orchid Crafts. I had to use some stickles, so that is around the image!! LOL   My sentiment is from SU, and I have also used some creamy lace and some cheese cloth to soften the card a bit. 

My next card I have to show you, is also by Sara Burrier, this one is called Poinsettia, I used this card in the challenge: Pearls and Swirls... I really love this one too:-) You can get your Poinsettia here

I've coloured miss poinsettia in some gold's mostly they are Y Copics with a little bit of E35 to golden/darken it up.  Her wings are of course smothered in Atyou Spica in Gold and Clear!! There is some more stickles on my sentiment which is by Dark Room Door, again there cheese cloth, laces, and wild orchid craft flowers and my Paper is by Websters - YUM YUM

So there is still time to enter into our challenge's, I can't wait to see what you girles have made:-)

Till next time (well right before Christmas actually - Christmas Eve, Eve, Eve, Eve LOL)

Good afternoon fellow crafters!! Carol here, hope you're all having a good week so far and it's not too cold where you are as it's freezing here in Worcester. Apologies for my late posting but better late than never eh lol?! The first card I have to share with you today is using this gorgeous digi image by Sara Burrier called Gpepper tree and is available to purchase in store here. I decided to go relatively CAS, just using a MS border punch, flat backed pearls made into some swirls and a rather large flower.The second card I'm sharing is the one I made for our current challenge which was chosen by me and is "Pearls and Swirls". You still have roughly five hours to enter so why not join in with us? The digi I have used is called Miss Mirabelle and she is available in store here.

For both these cards I have coloured in the images using Copics. Thank you so much for stopping by. I do hope my cards have inspired you to wanna check out the fabulous digis available in store and join in with our challenges here every Wednesday. Lotsa luv, hugs xxxx

Some Enchanting and Angelic Temptations

Hi there! This is Rose sharing a few of my recent Copic-filled images.

Hannah Lynn has created this beautiful digital image, exclusive to Crafts and Me, named Kathleen and Summer.  You can find these sweet mermaids here.  I found this image to be much like a hidden picture page as I found more and more items as I colored along . . .

This fabulous Caron Vinson rubberstamped image by Sweet Pea Stamps is named Fall Masquerade Fairy and I've used her with autumn colors.  You can find her here.  She'll look stunning decked out in any color combination . . .

You may have seen this carry all box at the current Crafts and Me Digi Team's "Pearls and Swirls" challenge. I've used Hannah Lynn's Christmas Miracle image on this fun project.  You can find her here.

A Fairy Christmas

Hi Everyone,

I'm chasing my tail again, nothing new.  I am now seriously looking forward to Christmas.  My house is a mess and my dining table is covered with cards being packaged up for a craft fair on Saturday.  I have orders to fulfil and not enough hours in the day.  Can anyone help, lol?

Today's card is a commissioned card, basically my customer wanted me to create a Christmas Card the same as my challenge card but using the Crafts and Me Belladonna image.  I'm not too good at recreating but hopefully you'll think these two look alike..... if not I'm in trouble.  I apologise for the photo I will replace when I'm home in daylight.  I have used Belladonna available HERE to create this Christmas Card.

And here's the challenge card that prompted the order, using the "Bride/Flapper" Art Deco image available HERE.

You can see this one was taken in good light.  Roll on Christmas and my new ott light.

Have a good weekend everyone.

Into the Word

Hi everyone. It's my turn to post and show you what I have created. This will be a fast post as I am just now finishing helping my kids with their homework. My youngest is really struggling and she has gotten so far behind that has so much work to redo and finish that I could make a book out of it. I am sorry I have been MIA here lately, but she has been taking up all my time. I work full time then come home and I have to be a teacher, well that is what it feels like as that's all I do anymore.

Enough about me, let me get to my creations I have to share with you.

This first one is the card I made from my Mom for her birthday. I love this image and wanted to make a card a little different than I normally do as this card measures 9 x 4.5. I even sewed on it, something I don't do that often. I used a digi image for this one called "Into The Word" by Sara Burrier and you can find her HERE.

This is the card I created for our last Rubber DT Challenge that Karina hosted " Shabby chic/Vintage

I used a rubber stamp by Hannah Lynn called "Frosted Rose".

I think this card with all the colors and paper design screams Shabby Chic, don't you?

Well I am off to get myself in bed as I am about 6 hrs behind UK time. I hope you have a wonderful day and thanks for stopping by.

Hugs:)

Angela
