Rudolph - Christmas Card

These punched out Reindeer were such fun to make, all I used was the Stampin Up oval punch and a small dusty miller leaf punch for the antlers some googly eyes and dew drop gems for the nose coloured with Copic markers in black and red, I also used the oval punch for the body and just turned it on it's side.

I found the idea whilst blog hopping here Andrea Walford

Attention to detail...

I added white flower soft to the fence, the fence was made using the cuttlebug distressed stripes A2 embossing folder then cut into strips and distressed by dragging each strip across a brown ink pad. Stickles was also added to give the snow effect.

Ollyfants Autumn

This stamp is from the Ollyfant range and is called Autumn 2 I love the wind swept little girl and the umberella in this set.

Coloured with Copic and Promarkers.

Attention to detail...

The ribbon was slotted through the button then tied into a bow.

The top patterned paper was punched to give it a fancy edge and the diecut Nestabilities label was sponged with ink around the edges.

Christmas Daisy

The Docrafts Magazine is giving away a free Daisy & Dandelion stamp this month (Daisy in a Santa Hat) so I thought I would give it a whirl, Stamped in Momento ink and coloured in a combination of Copic and Promarkers, a couple of background papers, base card, Nestabilities, Flowersoft and ribbon were used to put the card together.

Attention to detail...

White Flower Soft added to the hat

Stickles glitter glue added to the holly paper.

I used the In Bloom PTI stamp Set to make this card.

The base card was such a pretty Aqua colour that I used the left over pieces to stamp the sentiment, flowers and leaves onto and didn't need to colour them at all.

I took a square of white card slightly smaller than the base card and stamped the largest flower all over the card in black ink, tied a matching ribbon around this then stuck it onto the base card leaving the aqua border showing.

I cut out the sentiment, flowers and leaves and attached them to the card with foam pads then a couple of pearls and a little bit of stickles and I was done.

Attention to detail...

A dot of stickles glitter glue was added to the centre of each flower and the the veins of the leaves to make them pop.

Transfer T-Shirt Paper - Review

This is a transfer paper by Photo Paper Direct and is so clever, all you do is simply print out the image you want then iron it onto T-Shirts, Bags, Baby growers(Onesies), table clothes, napkins, pillowcases Oh my word the possibilities are endless.

I made my printout onto the paper for work hence the La Pashe logo, but I also had all of the crafting Cd's in my head when printing this, Oh my! imagine a bag made with Joanna Sheen's Hollywood CD or personalised bedding, matching sheets and pillowcases from floral Cd's heavens the possibilities are endless.

All in all a great product simple to use and they also do a glitter transfer sheets to add a bit of bling.

I nearly forgot to add my plain cotton shoulder bags cost less than £1 and the transfer sheets are priced at less than 50p a sheet so I great present or even a fund raiser for less than £1.50

I did the back of the bag with a smaller design

I love this idea of taking a low priced cotton bag and personalising it as a Gift for friends and family (Ohhh Christmas is coming).

I even managed to get my daughter Natalie to model.
