Christmas cats

Good Morning Everyone

Today is another Christmas card.  A little Christmas window shaker card


A5 Cream card base, i cut a panel of cream card slightly smaller than the card front and die cut the window die from it - i then cut the die again from black glitter cardstock, i added acetate behind the cream frame and glued the black window die cut into place and stamped my greeting.  To the back of the acetate i added pink paint pen behind the curtains and yellow behind the house windows and white snow falling, i added foam tape around the edges. 

On a piece of white card i added aquatint inks to give a blue snowy sky feel and yellow lamp light, this is quite random how the inks dry but i was trying to keep more blue behind where the houses would be and yellow nearer to the lamp...  I added this panel to the middle of the cardfront.  I then added shaker elements and placed the window panel over the top.

I die cut another cat from left over piece of the black glitter card to finish.


Hopefully you can just make out the black glitter card, its very subtle

Christmas cat window die - hobbycraft (I think!)

The Bird House


Good Morning everyone.  I hope you had a good weekend.

Today im sharing a card i made for my dads birthday with those fun crazy birds, i've teamed them with a stepper card and window die to create a bird house idea.


I first die cut my stepper card from black pearl cardstock and folded along the score lines. I then layered on some woodgrain patterned paper.  I took the middle panel of wood paper and die cut the window die into it, i then added acetate behind the aperture.  I added a stripey 'wallpaper' behind the window and attached to the cardbase.  I then die cut the window again from the black pearl cardstock and inlaid that over the acetate. 

I then stamped the birds onto white card and simply watercoloured with distress oxide inks, i picked colours to go with the stripey wallpaper. I then fussy cut out the two birds. I die cut various leaves from left over scraps of patterned paper and inked card.  I arrange the leaves and birds onto the bottom of the stepper.  

Just a close up on the birds.  I used oxide inks in candied apple, fozilised amber, lucky clover & salty ocean.  I added glossy accents to their eyes. 


Just showing the stepper card side on.  

Items Used:
Tim Holtz crazy bird stamps (original size)
Presscut centre stepper card die
Spellbinders window die
Various foliage dies
Bobunny paperpad 'broadwalk'
Black pearl card - payper box

Thank you all for popping by once again.  I hope by bright colourful birds brighten up the day. Emmax
