A Mixed Medley

Good Morning everyone.

Today im sharing a mix of cards i made last year and didn't get around to sharing.

6x6 Ivory card base.   I used papers from kaisercraft , all matted onto a dark green cardstock.  I stamped the greeting onto a die cut oval from the same preembossed ivory card i used for the base. Flower die cut from a chocolate paper from the pad. Green pearls to finish.  I followed a sketch by a friend.

Papers are: Kasiercraft 'Botanica'

A close up on the flower.

This one uses the same flower die as the one above.  I die cut a tag from white linen card and then die cut the spellbinders die in it, i them die cut the same die from black card, added it over the top of the white version and inlaid it back into the tag.  I mounted this onto gold mirror card coloured with red alcohol inks.  Then onto black card and a white card base cut to a tag shape.

Flower die cut from the gold mirror card coloured with red alcohol inks. Black gem for the centre.  Stamped greeting die cut into a small oval to finish. 

This photo shows the mirror card up better, adding a couple of different colours of alcohol inks to the the mirror card you get a nice marbled effect. 

6x6 black cardbase.  Using a floral stencil i used blue glitter texture paste multiple times onto black cardstock.  Once dry - best left over night die cut into a hexagon.  Mounted onto orange card and black base card.

from the orange gemstones core-dinations card i die cut butterflies the green circle and white banner were also cut from the gemstones card - it has a subtle shimmer.  Stamped greeting and gems added to finish. I think the stencil is imagination crafts.

This shows the colour of the texture paste better, it really is very glittery in the light. 

A New HOme card, using papers all from the same paper pad, mounted onto a dark green cardstock, i followed a sketch by a friend.  The little houses on the main panel i cut out from a spare piece and decoupaged on top to add a little depth. 

Papers are American Craft - Amy tangerine 'Yes Please'

Another one following a friends sketch.  last year my craft resolution was to try and do different layouts, i did start off well before falling back on my old tried and tested layouts, i shall again this year try and do different layouts again.  This one uses papers all from the same pad.  All mounted on navy blue cardstock.  Die cut birthday sentiment and little flower from white linen card.  Twine and gems to finish. 

Papers are: My Minds Eye 'collectable - remarkable'

And lastly another one following a sketch - 5x7 in size.  Autumnal papers mounted onto brown cardstock and white linen card.  I die cut the focal point using a thin stitched die 3 times from the same piece of paper and lined them up again on the front so that the pattern in the paper is complete.  Twine embellishment and die cut sentiment to finish.  This one is papers from poundland - 'changing seasons'
