Snow Lady Christmas

Good morning everyone!!

How are we all today?

I thought I would share my latest creation with you all.

I bought this lovely and adorable stamp from NGCards and I thought that it was about time she was getting used!

The card has been layered with vellum papers and normal paper, embellished with some coloured twine I found lying around one of the embellishment boxes, wild Orchid Crafts flowers and candi dots.

The flowers in the lower left corner are left from Mum's stash and are made of fabric. I have no clue where she got them from!

The image was stamped in Momento ink and coloured with Promarkers.

Today's new card! :)

Been messing around making cards today and this is what I came up with.

The main image is a Fairy Doodles stamp which has been stamped in Momento Tuxedo Black ink and then coloured using Promarkers.

Flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts.

Various papers used and perfect pearls also.

Penny Black Christmas

Well I decided to get the promarkers and the new fine liners out to try out a new penny black stamp!

I just adore this stamp and I can see me using it time and time again! :D

Next two Christmas cards.

Morning all!!

These two cards were made yesterday but this is me just getting the chance to post them here!!

The blue card:

Paper edges distressed with the Tim Holtz tonic thread cutter.

After these were shown on Facebook, I have had three offers, one from a shop to sell my cards for me.

Something to ponder.

Late night colouring.

I couldn't sleep last night because of the pain in my back and foot so I ended up colouring with promarkers!

Promarkers and stamping.

I couldn't face getting paper all over my just hoovered carpet last night so I ended up colouring with promarkers some stamped images!

No idea where this stamp is from as it is not labelled!!

Thanks for looking!

Late night crafting!

Well I could not sleep at all during the night, so here are the results of a sleepless night!

Three pretty Christmas cards!

Various backing papers used with Anita's glossy accents on the red noses and the snow in the stamped images.

Embossing done with the cuttlebug and winter border folders.

Late night toppers!

I really could not sleep at all through the night, so decided to be very mature and grown up and grabbed my pens and a blanket and coloured in for a few hours!

Here are some of the things I finished!

Home made Promarker storage!

Hi all!

I have noticed a few people asking me how I store my promarkers and my various pens that I use on every card I make.

Well, until I received all of Mum's craft stash, I was storing them in the official letraset storage cases that hold 24 pens in one case.

I had about 60 colours, so this meant individual cases which became a pain in the backside when I was crafting away and needed to see all of my available colours at once!

I was also limited for desk space, unless I worked on the floor!

When I received Mum's stash, I discovered where all of her promarker pens were stored!

Here is a nifty, compact and most of all, PRACTICAL way to store all of your promarkers, or indeed copics or any pens you use.

This box holds one of EVERY promarker available and still has some space!

Mum used a small flower punch on sticky backed paper to put on the end of the pens once she had coloured them so that you can see clearly at a glance what colours you have! :D
