Peter Rabbit Christmas and an eventful day!!!

Hi all, well here’s my card for today. I have used my Beatrix Potter A Winter’s Tale CD from Crafter’s Companion for the Backing Paper and Pyrimage.

It’s an 8” gatefold card base and I have used snow white centura pearl card.

The pyrimage is mounted onto a snow white centura pearl and silver mirror scalloped oval which I have cut using my eCraft. I have also cut the Let it snow and snowflake on the eCraft too. To finish these details I have added some Stickles Glitter Glue.

For the inside I have printed some more backing paper and an insert. The finishing details make all of the difference.

I’m entering this card into Christmas Card Challenges.

Right then your probably all wondering what the eventful day has been. Well this morning I slipped on my kitchen laminate and fractured my big toe. It’s very sore. I wasn’t going to go to A&E but after being advised I went. They haven’t been able to strap my toes due to where I have the fracture but have been advised to rest and keep my foot elevated and that’s what I’ve been doing whilst making my card. I’ve been taking the painkillers to help too. Luckily I’m not at work until Saturday so have another day to rest it.

Well take care all and i’ll be back soon.

Vintage Floral Butterfly Tree Canvas

Hi all This is a Canvas I have created. I've been working on it over a few weeks now. I initially decorated the base of the canvas with various papers, inks, paints, texture paste and script stamps; and painted the tree but was then stuck on what to add to it. I left it for a while whilst I came up with what I wanted to do. Then I decided I wanted some bigger flowers, and found some Prima flowers and added some additional mixed media elements and smaller flowers I already had in my stash. Along with glitters and diamante embellishments. I also die cut a fancy flourish for the corner (not that you can see much of it, oops) and a quote. I did two layers for the die cuts and glued them together so that they were thicker. Well here's a picture of it I'm quite pleased with how it has turned out. This is a video which shows some of the elements in more detail. You can even see the glitter sparkling. (Sorry it's a bit shaky I used my phone. It'...
