Maya and Kitty Sledging

I know it's only mid February but I'm continuing my mission to get my Christmas cards made throughout the year.  So I've got another one to share today.

This one features one of my favourite Whiff of Joy images of Maya and Kitty sledging.  I've used mainly browns (to match the papers and embellishments) but added a sprinkling of pink to give it a bit of a pop.

The Village Lamp is a lovely die that I've used for the first time today, and I've coloured it in gold, but perhaps not using something that you might expect!  That's where the make-up hint lies in the title of this post.

The gold is actually an eye-liner that I bought in a Body Shop sale a looooong time ago, and found in an old make-up bag completely unused a couple of years ago.  At that time, I decided that I had no idea what on earth I was thinking when I bought it, but I certainly don't think I would ever wear gold make-up.  So it became a crafting item instead (which might have been the original intention anyway!).  And it's laid unused until today!  To be honest I thought it would have dried up by now.  But nope!!  Still good, and the little brush applicator was perfect to paint the die cut.

I'll admit that on the make-up front, I'm a simple mascara kind of girl.  I wouldn't want to be seen dead without that.  And I do also wear a spot of eyeshadow in the week for work.  But that's it.  The whole foundation-concealer-lipstick-blusher-bronzer stuff escapes me.  I'd rather have an extra 10 minutes in bed than be under the false impression that anything I do with various pots, sticks, brushes and lotions can make much improvement!!  Plus any lippy seems to have blotted off within an hour if I do wear it for a special occasion / wedding etc.

Lip-balms on the other hand, well .. I have dozens of those little suckers!!   And I think that lip-balm is much more suited for little Maya as she goes sledging with her kitty on a cold winter's day!  :0)



Don't forget it's the final few days of The Stamp Basket Sale, so pop over there to grab your final bargains before it finishes.

Biggles

I've got another masculine card to share with you today, and it's another one using an aeronautical theme!

I've again cut out a square insert from the main backing papers, layered them on plain coloured card, and replaced them in the same place so the patterns match again, but with an insert panel.  It gives a bit of variation in the background without too much fuss, so I think it's quite good for a masculine card.

Chocolate Cake, anyone?

Today's card is using my Wild Rose Studio Vintage Rose papers again (I'm really loving this pad).  The ribbon is also a gorgeous chocolate brown, but it looks kind of black in the photo.  :0(

I messed up cutting out the image as a circle panel, so ended up fussy-cutting out the image and layering it directly on the chocolate brown panel so that it popped out of the card.

Sun Kissed

Considering I'm not really a fan of the colour green, I have made a couple of green cards lately and quite liked them.  This card is a real change from my usual pink creations, although I have sneaked some purple in there!  I really like these Secret Garden text papers and they inspired the colour scheme.

Mariella

It's Annette here today with my card for The Stamp Basket featuring Mariella from Crafter's Companion.  I've used a pretty pink and blue colour scheme to match the papers, added some blue ribbon and a blue button and also some new dies.

I've used Arianna Sprig, Dancing Butterflies and Forest Snail from Memory Box, and also my new La La Lands Heart fence which I've coloured with some brown streaks to give it a wood grain effect.  I didn't have the right shade of blue card for the flower sprig die, so I cut it out in white and coloured it with my Copics.

Birthday Bear

Hi all,

Hope you all had a fabulous Easter, Its Lyndsey here today with a little bit of card inspiration here on The Stamp Basket Blog.

Today I am using an adorable Bildmalarna image from the Little Winged Friends collection called Your Birthday. Such a sweet image and just perfect for a young girls birthday - in fact I used it for my daughter's card off her brother for her birthday yesterday. To make it even sweeter Janet has this gorgeous stamp in the sale for just £4.88.


I coloured the image with my promarkers and die cut her out with SB die. I teamed the image with some pretty papers from Bo-Bunny, added lots of gorgeous flowers, a die cut La La Land Fence, Memory Box Party Lanterns & Fresh Foliage dies & some lovely vintage style ribbon & white 11/2" flat lace just peeking out underneath the ribbon .

I hope you like my card today - I went for a very pretty pastel, girly feel and it was another of those where I wanted to use as many things from my DT package as possible lol.

Thanks for joining me here at The Stamp Basket today

Lyndsey xx

Teddy with Present

Hello everyone.  It's Annette with you today sharing a card which features a Wild Rose Studio image aptly named Teddy with Present.   It's such a versatile image, and would be suitable for Mother's day or a 'just for you' card, but today he's bringing birthday wishes.  I'm loving this fence die at the moment. The fence is cut in kraft card, and then I've run streaks of various browns to create a wood grain effect.


All items are from The Stamp Basket as follows:
Pop over to The Stamp Basket to see the lovely array of products on offer.

Your Birthday

It's Annette here today and I'm so glad it's the weekend again, and not only that, but there's only one more week until Easter too.

Today's card features Bildmalarna 'Your Birthday' but the image is quite large, so I've cut her out and only used part of the image.  It's a really versatile image which allowed me to do this, but the girl and bird seemed to be looking at something (which of course is the bear in the full picture) so I cut out the present that the bear was holding, and put it on the ground for them to look at instead!  The sewing was a challenge in itself on this project.  I tried to get it really close to the edges as there were so many small panels, and I got there in the end.
