New Home Strawberry Kisses


This is the card I have made for my Brother-in-Law and his girlfriend for moving into their first home together. I have used my new Strawberry Kisses Stamp and CD range from Crafter's Companion. This stamp is called Together . How cute is this image? I have coloured with my now full range of Spectrum Noir pens from Crafter's Companion and I must say I'm quite pleased with my attempt at colouring on this one. These images are really easy to colour.

I used my ECraft to cut the new home sentiment out of coordinations card stock. All of the matts and die cut matts are also coordinations card stock too. I have distressed the edges of the cardstock and backing papers. I added a ribbon and some buttons for detals. 

I am entering this card into the following challenges:


I really enjoyed making this card and am so pleased with the results. The recipient loved the card too.

Thanks for stopping by my blog

Mixed media clock

Hi all I'm back today to share a clock I've made.  I started it yesterday evening by adding the texture building stages using white crackle texture paste drying after. Then used various stencils and embossing paste. I dried this and then added a coat of black gesso and left it to dry over night.  This morning I added some colour onto it using Pebeo Dyna paints. I added die cut numbers cut out of silver mirror card. However I wasn't happy with it as it was too dark for what I wanted it for and thought the silver numbers didn't go with it. So I sat back and looked at it and decided I wanted it lighter.  Well no loss as out came my heavy white gesso and I gave it a good coating. Before adding the white gesso I sanded the numbers slightly so that the paint could adhere better and this also gave extra texture. I dried this off and added the Dyna paints again and some Art Alchemy Opal Magic in Rose Gold.  Well I felt much happier with how it was lookin

Birthday Card Trio

 Hello all, I'm back again with another post for you. This time I've got three cards to show you.  These are all made with products from Crafter's Companion. The 1st is another dragon card made using one of the Lee Holland Dragon stamps. I love these little characters :) I've had coloured this using spectrum noir colour blend pencils. I just love how much of a fun looking card you can make with these stamps.    Next is a card made using a unicorn stamp. This has also been hand coloured with pencils. I've also used some backing papers and matt mirror and glitter card from Sara's Enchanted forest collection. Finally I've made a card using my Crafter's Companion BeBunni CD. It's a while since I've used this cd but I forgot how cute these little bunnies are.   All of the cards have been personalised with die cut numbers and letters for the names. Hope to see you all again soon. Rachel
