Unicorn Challenge 12 Add Glitter

n

Add  Gliltter

 

Well I took a step further

I did Diamond dust over the whole card

Doesn't look so  glittery on screen but it is in real life

The image is a free b through a magazine

I colored with copic

Used Stickum glue and Diamond Dust

MERRY CHRISTMAS

LCC 120 New Years

Oh WOW is it December already ?
The challenge is to do a Christmas or new Year card
I expect you will be seeing many Christmas cards so I chose New Year
The sweet Steampunk image is Stampendous
I stamped with black embossing powder  and
colored with Spectrum Noir
The mask is colored with Spectrum Noir Glitter pen
Come see what the other DT made and show us your work

CAS Trees

I finally made aa CAS  I don't hate and now I can't get a good photo

For this card I used  MFP Mini set  Tree Scene Selection

I marked of the grid with H2 pencil

Stamped the trees with Distress ink using my Misti

I then filled in a few spaces with diagonal lines

Mind you I am still tempted to put the whole thing  on a matt

Not a card

                        

                                     This is not a card and it continues all next year

I will share with

CRC 29 Winter Time

Nothing says winter like mittens

These mittens are cut with my Cricket

I don't use it much

I thought the mitt could hold the sentiment

So simple   All I did was put the white card   stock in an embossing folder
Stamped My Besties  Twins with black Memento Ink and fussy cut
                                              DONE

Lest We Forget

I just received this OUTSTANDING  card from my British pen pal

Her cards are always beautiful  and appreciated but I have never been presented with anything this meaningful

Thank you so much Alison

LCC 119 Winter

                                                  Well after all it is November should be winter
                                                 So the Challenge At LCC  this month is WINTER
                                               I stamped  nit much coloring  I used chalk on the sky
                                               The snow is Enamel Accents which I love using
        
                                                             The next card is a mystery
                                             It is my habit to make a list of the challenges in my book 
                     When I got to November  I made a Summer card  ( I swear that is what was posted)
                                            When I went to schedule it it had changed to Winter
                    Not wanting to waste this pretty card  I will own up to my mistake and let you see it

Go over and see the other DT you never know what you will find

This challenge is Snowflakes

I used an Anna Griffin folder

I put Versamark over the folder and ran it through with cardstock

I then applied Gold EP and heat set

I hope you enjoy the MERRY CHRISTMAS 

 it is vellum and the last time I will die cut vellum

I tried with  a paper layer , everything stuck in the die

I tried with plastic bag , it broke in many pieces trying to remove it from die

Finally dryer sheet was relatively helpful

Then to get it adhered well you don't want to hear the language that goes with that

Just enjoy it

I want to use more than one layer and add at least aa few embellishments

But then it wouldn't be CAS would it /?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY UNICORN CHALLENGE

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

                                                  For  Unicorn 1st birthday  
                                               decided on an explosion card


I

There are 9 surfaces to decorate  and I did each with a birthday  pop up or sticker

Unfortunately with the print card stock I used it is not showing well

Please believe me it is pretty
This will have to be hand delivered or mailed in a box
I once mailed an explosion box out of the country and the customs tag said explosion box
Guess what customs opened it for inspection and then couldn't fold  it back   My friend received  it  in  a large government  package

                                    HAPPY BIRTHDAY

CAS Birthday

Anyone who follows  me knows  CAS is difficult for me

I have to tell myself over and over it  means simple

STOP

Well I did this time and didn't have to do over

First step was to put the card stock through an embossing  folder

The BIRTHDAY  sentiment is from MFP  stamp set  Large  Blooms

and I used my Mini Misti

NOTE.. the little protector jacket my daughter makes

I used distress inks and marshmallow sponges to color the folder

I have no idea what these are called and I still have packaging ?? 

But  I will add I love and use them a lot

I bought two sets  ,,,,,,not necessary   as you can use both ends

and still have enough for all your colors

They do a nice job once you learn to dab off and use a light touch
