Unhappy Santa - Sassy Cheryls

When the very talented Cheryl Alger (artist of Sassy Cheryls) asked me to do a little project for her I jumped at the chance, I simply love her work, if you havent yet found her get on over there as you are missing out click here to be taken to her store.

I used the Unhappy Santa with gift and coloured it with Copic Markers, I used a deep Purple card and created the scene with white ink and sponging over torn paper then punched out a circle from scrap paper and sponged through the hole to make the moon, I dabbed the Ink Essentials white pen randomly across the sponged scene for snow and added a star with the came pen.

I added lots of crushed glass glitter for the snow topped roof and added the image seperatly with foam pads to make it a 3d effect.

Free Sheets for your Card Making

As some of you will know I have had back problems for a few months now and on Friday it all came to a head and my back took a turn for the worst, so I'm resting it and that means a break from making cards for a while, I was watching Jack and as you do with babies I was carrying him quite a lot and now I am paying the price.

I am finding it impossible to lean over my craft desk or find a comfortable position to sit or even stand so I'm hoping that it will heal at a mega speed so I can get back to some normality.

I do have a card scheduled for Monday which was a promised card and after that we will have to see how things go.

In the mean time I have made a few free sheets for you all so I hope you like them.

I Even Love the Box - Mo Manning

Things are just manic for me at the moment so you will have to forgive my none posting yesterday, work is mega busy and I was carded out yesterday.

Today was pretty much the same and then was at a theatre show with with my Mam which was really good, then raced back and started a card at 22:45 to get it on here.

So my image is called "I Even Love the Box" and can be bought here

Not only is it cute but also is is so true, I know our Jack plays more with the packaging than he does the gift..

Coloured with Copic Markers, stickles, KaiserKraft Design Papers, ribbon, diecut poinsettia and a bit of love to bring it all together.
