Technique Junkies Tri-fold Christmas Card

I have had so much fun so far with my Christmas Cards, I decided this year to make motion or fold cards. This one was featured in the August/September 2009 Newsletter, easy and quick to make...

Mask

I have had so much fun making this mask, it started out white and I painted with Lumiere Indigo, gold glitter, blue glitter, stick on flowers and plumes bought from Spotlight and the silver clip and beads of a necklace bought at the two dollar shop. Every year we have a staff photo taken for our Christmas card and of course this was ideal for me, making a mask.

Wedding Card

I love weddings and we are off to one in Christchurch. I had a bit of difficulty with making a card, couldn't decide how to colour the image. I decided after several attempts on alcohol inks and then highlighted some of the images with copic pens, pleased with the final result.

Cuttlebug BG

Have just completed another card with a cuttlebug BG, another Impression Obsession Stamp and look, how exciting have used my new punch again. This Card is on its way to USA for a member of Technique Junkies to encourage her during a difficult time. Do hope she likes it!

Waterlily Card

Finally I have located a slot punch and this is the first card made with it. I made a couple of these cards cutting with a scalpel but was never happy with the tidiness of the slot, look how neat this one is. Stamp by Impression Obsession, coloured by copics and I used two different cuttlebug folders on the BG which was coloured by Kaleidacolor Carribean Sea.

BEREAVEMENT CARD

I had a bereavement card to make for a cousin who lost her husband recently. The BG I coloured with Kaleidacolor Riveria then cuttlebugged with two different folders and covered the middle with a cuttlebug cut out. The image made by Impression Obsession was coloured with copics and the sentiment in silver, a sticker. I used a few mini beads on the flowers and the plumes, and put a small heart under the sentiment.

BDay Card

This card was done with a brayered BG, coloured with one of my kaleidacolor stamp pads and put through my cuttlebug. The coffee cup was coloured with copic pens and amazing glaze gives it the shiny glossy look, a bit of glitter gives it zing. The sentiment was a happy birthday sticker and I cut the scalloped edge with my spellbinder die. Happy Birthday Howard!
