Christmas Owl


It's reminder time for 12 months of Christmas challenge.

The optional theme, if you wish to use it, is Christmas Confectionary.


I have used an image from a sponsors this month which is Imagine That Digistamp
and he's called Christmas Owl.



I've coloured him using Prisma pencils. the patterned papers are from
 Décosse's Dynamite Doodles papers. I have used one for the backing paper and die cut parts of the poinsettia from another. The sentiment comes with the image and another that goes well inside the card. 

I would like to enter this card in the following challenges
Christmas Card - Christmas
Live, Laugh, Stamp - Hand coloured image
Dragons Lair - Christmas in August
ABC - N is for Noel

Floral Canvas


Late again, But better late than never.

Our sponsor this month is Stamplorations

I have used a canvas this month but I have used the wrong side for a change. The frame has been covered with torn up pages from a book and the inside edge has been painted with matt black paint.


I have then used a stencil and decorated part of the canvas using distress inks. The edge of the frame and remaining background has then been shaded using the same colours.Some of the flowers have been die cut coloured and dipped in UTEE to give them shape and shine. 


The edge of the frame is decorated with hession pieces, string and more flowers. These have also been coloured with the same inks.The works are die cut using Tim Holtz dies. 

Please visit the blog and see all the great inspiration from my fellow team mates.
