Slinky Tart - Merry Christmas

Hi all!

Today I would like to share a project I made for Slinky Tart! This week was team B's turn to post, and since I am now managing team A and B, I also made a card. I am in need of Christmas cards, I decided to use my favorite Christmas image ever, and luckily, she is in the Slinky Tart shop!!

To create the shape of my card, I used a template from Dutch Doobadoo. The papers I used are from Little Yellow Bicycle, and I think these papers are ancient, lol. I have them in my stash for over 6 years now I think! I inked all edges with Distress Ink Walnut Stain.

Like I said earlier, I used my all time favorite Christmas image. This one is called Snowman CPR, and can be found here. I used my Copic Markers to color her up, and I used the following markers.

Skin: E000, E00, E21, E11, E13

Hair: C5, C7, 100

Eyes: E55, E57

Lips: R22

Coat: G40, G43, G46

Snowman: C00, C1

Nose: YR15, YR16

Hat and Scarf: R35, R46, R59

I used some Crystal Stickles on the furry edges of the coat and hat.

 I used some Wild Orchid Crafts flowers, and some pine cones from my stash as an embellishment.

The sentiment I used is made with a die from Noor Design, and I just can't stop using this one!

This was it for today, please pop over to the Slinky Tart blog to see what the other girls made!

Hugs, Sandra

Merry Christmas (again) Robyn's Fetish #136 Tic Tac Toe

Hi all!

The titles of my blogposts are getting a bit monotone! It looks like the last 3 or 4 posts are called "Merry Christmas"
Well, guess it is the time of the year or so! :)
It is sunday again and time for a new challenge at Robyn's Fetish!
This week we are sponsored by Di's Digi Downloads.

Click on the banner to go to their shop.
They have lots ans lots of wonderful digi's, but the DT didn't use their images. We actually did not use any digital stamps at all!
This weeks challenge is a TIC TAC TOE challenge, and here is the grid

For my sample I used to top line, Red + green, embossing and lace. Here is my card

The paper I used is by Little Yellow Bicycle, and it is called the Magic Christmas collection. The baubles I used are die-cuts that comes with the collection.

I cut a panel of creamcolored cardstock, and embossed it with my Swiss Dots embossingfolder in my Cuttlebug. I inked the embossed parts and the edges of all papers with Distress Ink Peeled Paint.
I used 2 different twines to "hang" the baubles.

The sentiment is a clear stamp, stamped with Memento Tudexo Black ink on the same cream-colored cardstock. Cut 2 slots in it for my lace, and that was it!

I hope y'all like it, and join the fun at Robyn's Fetish!
See you next time!

Hugs, Sandra

Merry Christmas!

Hi all!

A few posts ago I mentioned I started making my Christmascards and for today I would like to show you all one!

Last year I was a bit late with my christmas cards, since I started about half November, and I really got stressed when I heard I had to be in hospital for 2 weeks! I heard that on december 5th, so less time, and lots of cards to make!
Evenothough I am not planning on going to hospital this years (last years wasn't planned either, but hey, anything can happen) I started creating early this year! I already have about half the amount I need, and I am pretty proud of it!
For this one, I used a Magnolia image from last years, she is colored with my Copic Markers again.

I used the following markers to color Tilda.
Skin: E0000, E00, E11 and R20
Hair: E71, E77.
Dress: R35, R37 and R59, E31 and E33.
Cone: E31, E33, UG63, YG67, E37.

The sentiment is a Dutch one, it says Happy Holidays. I cut it out with my circles N estabilities and matted it with a scalloped circle. The paper I used is by Little Yellow Bicycle, The Christmas Magic Collection. All edges are inked with Distress Ink Walnut stain.

The lace I used is from my stash, just like the flowers, brads and rhinestones!

That was it for now, hope you all like it!
Off to create some more christmas cards!

Hugs, Sandra
