SD Deer Easel Christmas Card

Hi! I'm here to share my  Scrappers Delight Design's November Monthly Facebook Challenge . This month's super cute image is called Deer 6 . It's such a beautiful  Scrappers Delight Design  digital stamp. I've made a easel card which I plan on giving to a close friend. I've coloured the deer using Watercolour Pencils. I added homemade texture paste in small blobs to create 3D snow in the background. I've added several die cuts of a doily, snowflake, foliage and flowers. I hope that you like my card. I'd like to enter this card into the following challenges Scrappers Delight Design's November Monthly Facebook Challenge Scrappers Delight Blog Challenge - #72 Anything Goes Creates And Makes - #17 Anything Goes Crafty Card Makers - #201 Animal Magic Creatalicious - #128 Anything Goes With Optional Flourish Thank you for stopping by.

CDD Space Cadets Cards

Hello I'm back with two space birthday cards. I've used a Craftin Desert Diva 's wonderful digital stamp set called  Space Cadets  (this link includes my Affiliatly link.) I've made two digital scenes using the set and the matching sentiment came with this awesome set. I've coloured the first card images using mainly Rembrandt Aquarell Pencils and I've simply framed the image. I've added stars with white gel pen to finish of. This is the first card. The second card has been coloured using a mix of Distress Inks. I added white gel pen to create stars. Using the same digital stamp set in a different way. I coloured them using different techniques to see which I preferred. I'd say for me I think it was easier to build up the layers using the pencils on the first card. This is the second card. I will be sharing my card over at the  Craftin Desert Diva's Gallery Facebook Group . I hope they you can pop over to the group. I

Harvest Night Tag

Hi. So at the beginning of this month here in the UK we celebrated bonfire night. This image called Harvest Night made by Shell Becker .

I figure if I wanted to make a scrapbook it would make the perfect tag within a page to talk about our experience of the event. I've coloured the image using pencils and coloured ball point pens (for the fireworks.) To finish of I shaped and added a die cut tag to the top. I'm going to enter my tag into the Outlaws October Monthly Progressive Challenge . Thank you for stopping by my blog today.
