Vintage Wedding Anniversary card Insert & Box

Here is the insert to the Vintage anniversary card I made, won't bore you with details, it's all pretty much the same as the outside of the card, but just in case you're wondering what die/die cuts I used for the numbers, I didn't, they're hand cut...








and here's the box I made for the card. Pretty boring I suppose, just wanted to play with that Tim Holtz mask again...

Winter Wishes

Hallo, hier ist meine Karte für heute - German for Hello here is my card for today.

I used a sketch from Magnolia vs Stampavie, it's a nice easy sketch to follow. The background paper was made by me on the computer with some snowflake pictures I found on the web, and the half circle is white glitter card. The main image is from Joanna Sheen's Dancing With Shadows CD ROM, which had some glitter added to it, and some silver border peel offs. To finish off I used two white poinsettias, Bosscut snowflake dies, white organza ribbon,some rhinestones and two Dress It Up snowflake buttons. The sentiment was a freebie rubber stamp I got from Whiff Of Joy that was stamped onto vellum/parchment with Brilliance Graphite Black. And all mounted onto Stardream white pearlesent card. I'm quite pleased with this card, mainly because I managed to finish it in one day LOL. I AM the worlds slowest card maker. There another one done for my Dad, and on to the next one...

Take care & keep smiling

The Begining and Pretty Pressings Challenge

There are two pictures, one taken with a flash and one without, and I'm not happy with either. The grey lines are actually glitter and are supposed to look like little snow mounds there is also glitter on the snowballs but you can't really see. And there are crystal snowflakes on the die cut snowflakes, again they don't show up up well. I did a bit of cross stitch to match the stitching on Tilda's jumper and gloves. The fir trees are stamped with versafine Olympic Green and then I used Sakura GellyRoll white pen on them to make it look like snow. Hope you like it :)
