Christmas Craft Creation - October theme: Christmas Music, with video

For the Christmas Craft Creation October theme: Christmas Mucis, I've printed the CC Designs Carolers digistamp.

I've colored it with Copics, Triblend and Spectrum Noir markers, then added it to a cardbase with tape runner.

Can't say any more than that ;-) easy peasy, but cute card.

AAA Cards Challenge #176 One Corner + cosy, with video

This fortnight the AAA Cards Challenge is:  One Corner + Cosy as the optional twist.

Our sponsor is Stamplorations.

I  used the Clearly Besotted  Knitted with love and Laugh out loud Christmas.

The sentiment says "...put on that ugly sweater...", now my bear didn't have one, so I added a few lines to give him one. I think the coral red/pink is very ugly, the scarf and hat are quite taste ful, but that sweater...lol..anyway the sentiment makes sense now. I could have used another bear from the set, but I didn't fancy the challenge with all those small small small details.

Also the bear looks  nicely tucked into the corner with the scarf leading your eye into the panel and onto the sentiment.


I stamped image and sentiment with Gina K Amalgam ink and coloured  with my alcohol markers.

Autumn Birthday


 After my goof up on Wednesday with the Male Room Challenge, I combined  the Less is More with the Male Room challenge.

The Less is More is a CASe challenge, the Male Room is being inspired by an Autumn Quote.

For my card I've used the My Favorite Things Snowdrift dies to cut the kraft panel, like the  inpsiration card from Sharon. applied Distress inks on the cardpanel for that autumn feel.  My fox is from a dieset from  Love 2 craft and the Mushrooms and treestump are from Elizabeth Craft Designs (Forest Accessories)

Sentiment from My Favorite Things Bitty Birthday Whishes and I stamped it on white


card with Versafine Clair ink and then cut it to size and mounted it with foamtape.

A party without cake



Theres an Anything Goes challenge at the Mo's Digital Pencil blogspot.

For my card I used a quote from Julia Child: a party without cake is just a meeting.

I feel that's correct ;-)

I've used a digi from Mo's digital pencil ( Happy Purrfday) and coloured it as my cats. My cats don't like cake, but I do! So the best of both worlds.

Cut the panel 1cm smaller all around and mounted it to a carbase

Libra month


 The AAA Birthday Challenge this month is a photo inspiration.

I've used many of the colours, or so I'd like to think.

October is the month of the Libra and I've used oranges, red, yellow purples to match the photo.


The image was from Craftin Desert Divas, sadly they're closed, the sentiment is from My Favorite Things (Old Friends).

I've coloured the image with Copics and added the dots with a gelpen, then mounted it with foamtape.


The sentiment is stamped with Versafine ink. The Bacground is Distress inks wilted violet, candied apple and spiced marmalade, through a diy stencil.
