Not a christmas Turkey CCC

 Hi Everyone, my DT card today is for -

Critter Crazy

 Anything Goes but they MUST feature a critter as the main focus 

Whether Furry, Feathered, Fantasy, Fairytale, 

Scaly, or Insect, there must be a critter.

  

 

With no idea what to do this month, I went through some digis I have, and came across a chicken that I had to do. I took it into Silhouette, I added a bag design and clipped chicken wire paper to it, the bag and 2 images, in case of a mistake. I also added a made up a sentiment to the corner of the bag. They were print and cut.

 

The chicken I coloured with marker pens, I also added a piece of holly cut at the same time. It'll come in handy for one of those little gifts I give.  As you can see, they are all old images. That's the way my mind is working at the moment.

Penguin 2CCC

      Hi Everyone, I have 3 DT cards today, this is for -

our new named blog
 

Critter Crazy

although the rules are slightly different, we still have the same challenge

Anything Goes but they MUST feature a critter as the main focus

Whether Furry, Feathered, Fantasy, Fairytale, 

Scaly, or Insect, there must be a critter...

I have tried to do mostly one layer cards for Christmas this year, last year I was charged to much for the post! My cheapskate part of me took over! 

My card is using the cutest penguin, I added the lights to him digitally and deleted part, so it looks like they are behind his head and I had him stand on an ice cube. I added a background that has pale snowflakes in the image then added the sentiment. I printed it, then added clear glaze to the lights, his eyes and beak and some snowflake dies from mirror card. I didn't want to add another layer under it, so I went around the edge with a glue pen and added silver glitter. A nice light-ish card for posting.

Ellibelle's Crafty Wednesday

Chick 2CCC

I have 2 DT cards today this is the first

2 Crafty Critter Crazies

Anything Goes but

they MUST feature a critter

Whether Furry, Feathered, Fantasy, Fairytale, Scaly, or Insect, there must be a critter featured...

 We are excited to be sponsored this month by 

Beccy's Place

My card today is part of a win I had from Beccy's, I thought the set so funny I had to have it and decided to use it for the challenge here at 2CCC.

I die cut a piece of card to fit the A5 card I was using to layer the chick onto, then used a stencil to add clouds lightly onto the top of the card and use the same part of the stencil to add the grass , I printed and coloured the chick in DI's then glossed his eyes and beak, I added yellow feathers to his tail, but decided I needed to add something else. 

So - off to my files to see if I had any chicken wire I could use and found an image that I added to my digital cutting machine and cut it out, I was thrilled and felt it just right to add to the card, I 3D'd the chick on top, added the printed sentiment cut with a die with cloud stencil added to it. 

I hope you like it and that I see you at the challenge using a "critter".

Beccy's Place February Challenge

1 year old

Hi Everyone, another GNiece has her birthday, this one was the one we were worried about last year who had to have surgery as soon as she was born. Thankfully this little darling is doing well with no lasting effects. She is ONE and this is the card I decided to make for her.

I used this colourway for the bear.

Bear - Elizabeth Dulemba

print and cut Silhouette Cameo 2 x 3 times

rainbow paper - Snickerdoodles

birthday and number cut out with Silhouette Cameo 2

added some glitter to the greeting name and number

Oh! Holy Night

Hi Everyone, after a few days of absolutely no action by me, I have a card. It's for the Outlawz Wednesday sketch challenge, and I only just made it! It's a digi kit by SnickerDoodles from a blog hop in 2015, I had it as a freebie and only came across it by accident, looking for something else and it spurred me on to make it. A very unusual colour combo, but I really like it and surprisingly so did hubby. With gold Nuvo Glitter Sheen, it has lots of sparkle. The star has Uniball silver glitter pen added. All layered and fussy cut.

Tooth card!

Hi everyone, my card today is for hubby's nephew, a great guy who is full of fun. He teaches Dentists how to add his company's filling "stuff" LOL. Well it was about time I did a tooth subject card for him, I know he will appreciate it.

smile sentiment - Create with TLC

tooth - SnickerDoodles

toothpaste streak, tooth paper- Digilicious

teeth  - Digilicious, that I cut on the Cameo after tracing them and adding an offset to add gums and a mouth? I added silver glitter pen to make fillings!

I added wobbly eyes to the tooth

The insert with a joke from the web.

Books

Hi Everyone, had time on my hands and rather than do the ironing! UGH! I decided to make another scrapbook page for the digital blog challenge at Digitally Made. I saw this quote recently and made a note of it, that's what started the story on my page. 

A lot of things we read about and experience can give our lives excitement, danger, love and hate, just by turning a page, don't you just love reading? 

This page contains a lot of digital papers, elements and masks, so rather than list them, if you like the look of an image or paper, let me know and I will tell you where it's from and who by.

Hi Everyone, another scheduled post, because of my blogger problems. This is for the Limited Runs progressive challenge, I had forgotten I had this to do and it's nearly the end of the challenge. Anyhow, here it is and very CAS for me, it still took ages to do though.

Santa and his cup!

Hi Everyone, a second post today as I have a card from a new (to me) designer HN. I was introduced to him by Hetty who wrote on her blog.

JavaCardLineArt

In Monika Reeck's Etsy shop you find some wonderful

coffee images for only a few dollars. The images are drawn

by her Indonisian friend HN and he can do so much more

with these dollars in his country. Please take a look and see if you can

support him by buying a digital stamp.

Have you never used digital stamps?

Well HERE you find some more explanation what to 

do with these digital images. 

Anyhow here is one of the digis it is "Santa with a cup of coffee". I love this "modern" Santa, he could be anyone's Dad - oops! sorry Santa, I only meant he was dressed up as you!

I laid it all out and coloured it in PS following the sketch. I changed the colour of the quote to match the papers. I used my Cameo to print & cut the centre pieces, then 3D'd them. Some sparkle voila!

It's time for a new challenge at

 Digitally Sweet Challenges

the Theme is 

"Anything BUT a card or layout"

sponsored by  Lacy Sunshine

I chose "Snow Bunny Etherial Enchantress" isn't she wonderful?

My "Anything BUT a card"  is a calendar page, I think she is perfect for this, she's showing what the weather can be, beautifully.

I coloured her in PS added shading and shadows and placed her in the calendar template.

Teacher Thank you card

Hi Everyone I know I am a little late! with this kind of post, but I haven't posted a card for a while with an Elizabeth Dulemba image and remembered this one.  It was made for a friend's daughter who was leaving her school.  The card was for her English teacher the butterfly book was a perfect image I thought for this.

Thought I would show the others I had to do too.  She wanted 3 for "Special" teachers.  All had to be yellow and blue, the school colours and had to have the school badge too.  Anyhow here are the others.
