CAS Christmas

Good Morning all, i hope you had a good weekend.

Time for the last challenge of the year over at Make My Monday

The theme for the next 2 weeks is

CAS CHRISTMAS
So Clean & Simple designs



A6 white card blank.  Ive gone with a completely flat one layer design, again making use of a die that cuts into the card so adds extra interest and depth.  I added a coloured insert to contrast with the ink i used. 

I first die cut the snowflake burst into the cardbase to the right side.  I then used purple wink of stella pens and the wet into wet technique around the snowflakes.  Once dry i added a white die cut angel.  A pale teal patterned paper as the insert to peak through the snowflakes, i used a strip of this paper on the front left edge with a strip of card coloured with the same wink of stella pens just to tie all the colours & design together. 

I found this tiny joy to the world sentiment stamp from Penny Black in my stash which was the perfect fit for the bottom right corner. 


A close up, you can see the teal inside peeking through, just about making out some of the sparkle.  The Echo Park Angel die is the perfect size for the middle of the memory box snowflake burst die.




2 tones of blue wink of stella pens, sadly the photos don't pick up the amazing sparkle they give.  And yellow insert


Showing the yellow shining through


orange/red version.

Snowman



Good Morning all.  

Time for a new challenge over at Cardz4Guyz  with the theme being

SNOWMEN
So Snowman/men as the main feature



6x5.5" white cardbase.  I cut a panel of white card smaller than the cardfront and die cut the memory box snowflake circle into the middle top, stamped the sentiment, then i dry embossed the panel with snowfall EF.  I lightly inked around the edges and around the snowflakes, mounted onto silver mirri card with foam tape and then the base card. 

I then stamped the quirky snowman onto white card with archival ink and coloured with alcohol markers. The little rabbit and present stamps came free with a magazine, i also coloured them with markers.  I then fussy cut them all out and arranged on the card front, i added the snowman in the middle of the snowflake. 


Close up, you can see the silver peeking through the snowflakes better here.  I added glossy accents to the snowmans eyes and 'buttons'

Items Used:
Paperartsy Zinski Art - totem
Memory box 'Snowflake Burst' die
Crafters companion snowfall embossing folder
Evergreen bought distress ink
Promarkers

So if you fancy joining in or just seeing all the other snowmen, do hop over to cardz4guyz
