CASTLE RUINS ON THE HILL


Hi, and welcome to all my very talented, and craft loving friends.

Also a welcome to anyone who just pops by to look at my work.

Now at the beginning of the year I promised myself I would use more of my stamps as I subscribe to the Creative Stamping Magazine, and I get lots of stamps with each issue.
Last month I received the stamps I used in this card, and thought they would be excellent to use for the Allsorts Challenge this week.
So I created this scene card, and am very happy with how it turned out.



This is a 8"x8" size card.
Now I hope this fits the theme as I thought the little deer looked like a baby one.
Made a mistake as I should have stamped the deer first, and then masked it off to create the scene so I went with fussy cutting it out and adding after.
I inked dusted my sky and grass, but wasn't happy with the grass result so I water coloured it with inks and water.
I also water coloured the deer, and the tree too.
Stamped some clouds in white, and the flock of birds with London Fog Ink.
I used the London Fog for the castle ruins too.
Grasses were stamped with lots of different colour greens.

Thank you so much for your visit, and precious time.
I really appreciate each visit, and comment.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

I would like to enter this into the following challenges.

WEDDING CARD AND BOX


Hi, and a big welcome to all my very talented, and craft loving friends.

Also a big welcome to anyone who just pops by to look at my work.

I have family visiting  so sorry if I haven't been able to visit just managing to do my DT comments at the moment.
Just thought I would pop on , and explain why.
While here I thought I would show you the other wedding card I made for my sister to give her Granddaughter.




This is a 8"x8" size card, and box I made to fit it.
I used Tattered Lace Shabby offset Die for the large tag.
Meade a pocket for the tag to slot in.
The lace is from E Bay.
The organza flowers are from Hobbycraft.
The ivy is a die from Sheena Douglas.
Just sprayed the card with Tattered Angels spray to get the glitz and colour then inked through the die to get the veins of the leaf with Memento Northern Pine Ink.

Service will be back to normal on Sunday hope fully. LOL

Thank you so much for your visit, and precious time.
I always appreciate every visit.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

WEDDING CARD AND BOX


Hi and welcome to all my very talented friends, and visitors.
 
Thank you so much for your wonderful comments on my last card.
I really appreciate everyone as it goes a long way with my self doubt about what I create.
 
As I mentioned yesterday I am showing my Granddaughter's Wedding Card and Box I made, was quite pleased with how it turned out in the end, mind you it was a pig to photograph because of the pearlised card.
 
 
Now because the above photo made the left side look warped, I photographed this flat for the next one.
 
 
 
 
This is a 8"x8" size card and box I made to fit it.
As stated yesterday I coloured all my peach card which started out ivory with Peach Bellini Ink.
I cut out the frame with Sue Wilson's Noble Pierced Square Die.
I then cut out 8 Tattered Lace Kensington Corner Dies for the lace inserts.
Computer generated Sentiment, and cut out with Ultimate Crafts Magnolia Lane Damask Frame.
Added some pearls to the corners and round the frame.
The larger roses came from the works, and I coloured them with Peach Bellini Ink.
The smaller roses I have had for a while, and I also coloured those.
The leaves I cut out of 160 gsm paper by hand and coloured them with green inks.
The ivy is a Sheena Die and I coloured those slightly too.
I also coloured the ribbon on  the  sides of the box, and round the box.
Sorry for such long details on my design.
 
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

The challenge runs from 8/12/16 to Wednesday 21/12/16 at 1PM, and then we have a Christmas Break till
January 2017.
This is all for perhaps a Top 3 or 5 badge, but we love to see your wonderful creations you make.
Please pop over to the challenge blog to see what my lovely Team mates created.

So here is what I made for my DT card.




This is a 8"x8" size card.
The Christmas Scene came from a Hunkydory set I bought.
I used some Gold Rainbow Mirri card for my base and then added one of the scenes that came with the set.
I decoupaged the village scene.
Then added some ivy and white poinsettias.

Thank you so much for your visit, and time.😄
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

TEAL CHRISTMAS CARD

Hi and welcome to all my very talented friends,
and  visitors.
I do hope you have all had a wonderful weekend,
and the weather has been nice for you.

Thought I would have a play with some of my
NBUS items bought a while ago, and not been 
used yet.
I wanted to make a Christmas card, and thought
Teal would look nice.
So here is what I came up with, and I hope you
like it.



This is a 8"x8" size card.
My NBUS items are the Embossing Folder, the
Ivy Die.
The Christmas Roses, and leaves are stamped
onto a snippet of card with Menmento London
Fog Ink, and I sprayed them with Crafters 
Companion Spray and Sparkle Pearl Diamond.
The ivy was also cut out of snippets too.
So I can join my playmates in the snippets
 playground with this.

Thank you for your visit and time.
I very much appreciate it.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.
