First of Two Today

The first challenge I managed today is for Penny Black Saturday Challenge. Over there the challenge is Christmas for the Guys. This is my effort

I used distress inks to colour this image and I was really pleased with the result. If you click on it you can see it clearer. It is glittered with Dazzling Diamonds from Stampin Up. The paper is My Minds Eye and the sentiment is from Woodware. The ribbon is from my stash. Hope you like it.

2 Challenges Today

This is the second challenge I managed today which is amazing for me.. This one is for Passion for Promarkers, they had a sketch made by Ida. I follow her blog and her creations are amazing, have a look. Here is my card following the sketch

I used a stamp designed by Gillian Roberts and the paper is My Minds Eye. I used my Martha Stewart Lattice Punch on the brown card behind the image which is hard to make out because of my photo. The gems are from my stash.

Papertake Weekly Challenge

Over at Papertake Weekly Challenge there is a lovely sketch to follow and the stamps that are up for offer are absolutely gorgeous. Go and have a look you won't be disappointed. Now on to my attempt.

I have used an image from Little Claires Stamps and the papers are My Mind's Eye. The ribbon is from my stash and the sentiment is a rub on from American Crafts. Santas hat has also been glittered. Hope you like it.

Cupcake Craft Challenge

I decided to follow the sketch over at Cupcake Craft Challenges which was designed by Caryn. This is the sketch

This is my effort

I have used Kars papers and the christmas bauble stamp from Papermania. I have used red glitter embossing powder which doesn't show up well in the photo. The poinsettas are from The Hobby House. Hope you like it.

Penny Black Saturday Challenge

Over at the Penny Black Challenge the challenge is White on White. You are only allowed to use colour on your image. I used the snowmen image coloured with Promarkers and stamped on a layered nestability. I embossed the background card with the cuttlebug snowflake folder. The charm is from Whiff of Joy and the snowflake is also Cuttlebug die embossed with Heat n Stick and then Dazzling Diamonds on top. The snowflake punch on the corners is from Fiskars.

Hope you like it.

Its hard to see the punched corners in my card as I still haven't figured out how to take good pictures for my blog.

Create4Fun Challenge

Over at Create4Fun they have a lovely sketch to follow and the prize is Octagen Nestabilities which I would love to own, so I had to try the challenge. Here is my effort

Holy Christmas Card

At Christmas a lot of my Mum's friends ask me for holy christmas cards so I made one today. I will have to make a lot more but at least this is a start.

I used Anitas 6x6 papers and silver ribbon. The saying is from Craftwork Cards. The decoupage is from my stash, I can't remember where though.
