Hello folks!! How you all doing? It was my birthday on Monday and I had a wonderful day which ended with seeing Gary Barlow at the Royal Albert Hall! He was absolutely AMAZING!! He sang all the Take That songs, some of his solo stuff and a few covers. I was so over-excited that I must admit I did scream a bit (a bit?!! lol) Anyway, see bottom of my post to see my new birthday stash.
Are you in the midst of Christmas panic?! I'm extremely relieved I only have one Christmas card to make now for my hubbie! Yay! So I have a couple of cards to show you today. First up is another Molly Bloom window card.
So I coloured the stamp exactly the same as with the previous card I made using this stamp (copics) and using Liquid Pearls for the snow. I didn't put the frame on 3d pads this time but I still used acetate behind the windows. I paper pieced the blind and hanging heart.
These gorgeous vintagey papers are by Basic Grey - Jovial. The sentiment is Papertrey Ink from the Love Lives Here- Holiday set and the holly die is PTI too.
I'd like to enter this into:
Creative Card Crew- tis the season
Deep Ocean Challenge- let it snow

Papertake Weekly- anything goes
One Stop- let it snow

Crafty stash used: Stamps (Molly Bloom, PTI); Copics; Papers (Basic Grey); Liquid pearls; Nailheads; Holly die (PTI)
The second card I'd like to show you is a card I made using the Papertrey Ink Love Lives Here- Holiday set. It basically comes as a mix and match set that you can create a scene with. I have pretty much cased the layout of the stamped image by Melissa Phillips so that's why I haven't entered into any challenges!
Crafty stash used: Stamps (PTI); Inks (Stampin Up); Assorted cardstock; Paper (DCWV); Buttons; Pearls
Lastly here is my birthday stash- sorry for dodgy photo. I got a load of new copics (even tho I said I wouldn't get any more!!!) A Lily Bee Head over Heels pad (can't wait to use this, it's GORGEOUS) and Echo Park pad. Then I got the fence and file tab dies from MFT and Memory Box Primo Labels die. Finally a couple of Stamping Bella stamps (who else?)
Have a fun week! xx
