Dashing deer swirls Christmas card

Dashing deer swirls Christmas card

Today's card is inspired by a sample in the Autumn/Winter catalogue (the one on page 8, lower right corner) but as usual I've switched mine around a little. I was so thrilled to see the return of Shimmer Paint in the Autumn/Winter catalogue and I can't believe that...

Tropical chic pink birthday card

Tropical chic pink birthday card

The Tropical Chic set has some great thank you sentiments but today I've teamed it with Perennial Birthday to create a birthday card. The paper used on the card front is a very subtle pattern from the Tropical Escape DSP pack. It's actually just a simple wash but it...

So Santa scooter Christmas card

So Santa scooter Christmas card

Some colouring therapy for me today as I worked on this card. The So Santa images are so cute! The colour combo is Poppy Parade, Pool Party and Mango Melody. The card base is an A6 landscape of Poppy Parade, matted with Pool Party and then more Poppy Parade. A card...

Painted Glass birthday card

Painted Glass birthday card

Today's card uses the Painted Glass bundle. The gothic style script works so well with the stained glass effect. I was taking so much care to get the placement of the second rectangle die just right, that I didn't notice that that the first section was overhanging the...

Dashing Along Merry and Bright

Dashing Along DSP (free when you host a qualifying workshop by end of September) is used as the background for today's Merry and Bright Christmas card. The stars from the DSP on the front are echoed by the stamped stars on the insert. The traditional colour combo of...

Toil and Trouble smile card

Toil and Trouble smile card

In the same way that our Dashing Along DSP isn't just for Christmas, our Toil & Trouble DSP isn't just for Halloween. Most of the sheets in the pack have a great plain patterned side to them that can be used for any occasion. As soon as I saw the cute frog papers...

Dashing Along DSP Christmas card

Dashing Along DSP Christmas card

Yesterday I shared a birthday card made with the Dashing Along DSP (free when you host a qualifying workshop). Today's card uses the leftover DSP and the same layout but with a change of sentiment to create a Christmas card. Same as yesterday, the colours used are...
