Angel Card

I love to color!

So, today I am sharing a card created with a lovely angel image from

Stampers Delights! 

If you like to color you'll really like these!

She is just one of the 25 coloring pages from the

Angles 2 Adult Digital Coloring Book.

I colored with Prismacolor Pencils and a little bit with glitter gel pens.

The border and sentiment were die cut out of a

pretty coppery metallic card stock from CutCardStock.

The blush colored card base is also a metallic card stock from CutCardStock.

I added a fabric flower with a pearl center to coordinate.

3 white pearls were added to the border.

Here's a closer view.

Thanks so much for taking a look!

Peace and Light

Hello there and Happy Monday!

I hope those of us who celebrate Thanksgiving had

a nice time with family and friends.

We certainly did! It was nice to have our 2 kids, their

spouses and our little grandson here with us for the day!

Now, we are all gearing up for Christmas.

It seems like we just celebrated, but, it's

been almost a year! How is that possible?

Time flies when you're having fun, I suppose, but enough of that.

The real reason I'm here today is to share 2 cards created for

Beccy's Place.

I have used one of this month's new releases,

Peace and Light.

DIGITAL STAMP SET

When you purchase this digital set, you will receive a zip file containing:
- 2 black and white line drawings
- 2 full colour images

- 4 word images / sentiments 

I colored both digital stamps with Castle Arts Soft Touch Pencils and fussy cut.

The patterned papers in the background are from Crafter's Companion.

I used some pretty specialty card stock, metallic and glitter, from CutCardStock.

I printed sentiments from the set and die and hand cut into a circle on the 1st card and

a banner shape for the 2nd card.

I hope you'll check this set out along with all the other products at

Beccy's Place.

And, be sure visit the Beccy's Place Blog for more inspiration, tutorials and challenges!

Have a great week!

Polkadoodles Ornament

Happy Saturday!

It's time to share my DT project for this week's

Polkadoodles Craft Challenge!

I've created an ornament for my project this week, as the DT was asked to create something other than a card. The focal image is Santa's Suit - Winnie North Pole, which I colored with Prismacolor Pencils and fussy cut. The base of the ornament is a scalloped circle die cut. I fashioned a rosette for the next layer using one of the

printable papers from the Christmas Joy Digiscrap Download Bundle. Two more layers die cut circles were added. I die cut a tree using Layering Trees Cutting Dies and placed it behind the focal, which is popped with foam tape. I added a piece of sparkly twine to finish.

Won't you join us this week?

The challenge theme is

ANYTHING GOES!

We'd love to see your creations!

Poinsettia Card

I think Christmas cards are my favorite to make! Do you have a favorite holiday or occasion to create for?

Hey there! I'm here today with an elegant poinsettia card project created for CutCutStock.

Materials

Card Stock – Cougar White Smooth CardStock, Classic Linen White Pearl Card Stock,  DCS Gold GLITTER Heavyweight 12×12 Discount Card Stock, Lessebo DAWN MAROON 83lb Cardstock, Lessebo HUNTER GREEN 83lb Cardstock, Pop Tone GUM DROP GREEN Discount Card Stock

Poinsettia, Foliage, Frame and Sentiment Dies

Glitter Glue, Pearls

Adhesive

Card Base

My card base was made from the cougar white card stock to measure 5 x 6 1/2 inches with a top fold.

Cut a piece of glitter card 5 x 6 1/2 inches to cover the base. A piece of red card was cut to 4 3/4 x 6 1/4 inches to mat a piece of 4 5/8 x 6 1/8 inch piece of the linen pearl.

Die Cutting

The die cut pieces were cut. They consist of a frame, foliage, a sentiment and enough pieces to construct 3 layered poinsettias.

I assembled the poinsettias. Gold glitter glue was added to the flower centers and pearls were to some of the foliage.

Complete

To complete my design, I started adding the die cut pieces. The frame was added first and the sentiment adhered to the center. Placement of the poinsettias was decided.

Foliage was added last.

I ended up with a little of the gold glitter glue on the flowers, but don’t mind at all!

Thanks for stopping by and having a look at my Poinsettia Card project!

We would love for you to connect with us over on the CutCardStock Facebook Page and the Facebook Group Creating with Card Stock for more inspiration.

Nutcracker Ensemble

 Hello!

How's your Tuesday going so far?

Mine is going well. I think I'll be doing some work on DT projects!

But, first, I wanted to share another of my DT projects done this month for

Conie Fong Art & Design.

I shared a card a few days ago using one of the digis from the new

Christmas Nutcracker Ensemble Bundle.

That card featured the Nutcracker King image.

This card uses the other 2 images, the

Nutcracker Soldier and Nutcracker Drummer.

I colored the digis with Prismacolor Pencils and, of course 

as the norm for me, fussy cut.

A fancy tree was die cut, with a die from Crafter's Companion, out

of green glitter card stock. The sentiment was also die cut with a

Crafter's Companion die. these, and the nutcrackers were adhered

to the 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 inch card base which was covered with a

tone on tone card stock from Crafter's Companion. The metallic gold and

red card stocks are from CutCardStock.

I added some green, red and gold sequins to the tree.

I do hope you'll check this digi set out along with all the other

fabulous digis available in Conie's Etsy Shop.

Also, I hope you'll join us over on Facebook at

Conie Fong Art & Design Group.

You'll find lots of inspiration there and we welcome you to share your

creations using Conie Fong products!

Angels 2 Coloring Book

Hello there!

Have you seen that there are 2 new coloring books at

Stampers Delights?

They contain beautiful angel images.

I am sharing a simple card made with one from the

Angels 2 Adult Digital Coloring Book.

This digital colouring book contains 25 high-resolution printable coloring pages in PDF format.

These angel coloring pages feature beautiful chibi designs.
The resolution is 300 dpi ensuring that your finished artwork will look sharp and vibrant.

You'll receive two PDF files containing all 25 colouring pages, one is grey scale, one not and available for instant download after purchase.

I colored this page with Castle Arts Pasteltint Pencils and glitter gel pens.

A little gold glitter glue was also added.

The page was trimmed down to fit my card.

The frame was down with 2 dies, cut twice each out of

gold glitter paper. This frame was layered over a white card stock

that was added to a metallic purple card base.

If you love coloring, like I do, you'll love these books!
