Ooh La La challenge #188 Signs of Autumn



Good morning friend's follower's and visitor's
I hope you are all well this morning.
For today's card it is for the 
Ooh La La Challenge And the theme is signs of Autumn.







For this Card I started with a A5 white card base
which I cut a mat off of paper that I printed of the cd.
And the I embossed a piece of white card for my next mat.
 
I then printed off my image and I cut a mat out of white 
card and then a mat out of the backing paper that i used at
the base of this card.

I then cut a strip of the background paper and a strip of white
for the top.
I then added this just off center. Using double sided foam tape
I then added my topper to the left of the card front. 

To make the leaf I didnt have any card the colour that I wanted so
I added some destress inks to a piece of white card I used orange green and 
antique linen and it came out as a Autumn colour.
I then cut out my leaf and I must say it's not too bad.
To finish with I added two flower's to the bottom corner.

That's all for today and I thank you all for your
lovely comments that you keep leaving me I do really
appreciate them.




Many Thanks

Sally int the snow






Good morning all friend's follower's and visitor's
I hope you are all well on this Sunday morning hope you are all
having a lovely weekend. What are you all up to 
for the bank holiday. I'm going to lock my self in my craftroom
And try and catch up with My DT work. As I'm getting behind
cos I've had a couple of bad days with my back and legs
I fell down stairs one day last week and then twice while I
were getting out of bed But I'm like a kelly I keep bouncing back.

Today's card I have used a image I think it is from Hobby House
but I've had it a long time so I'm not sure..
I have used a A5 tent card which I cut a mat out of white card
And I then embossed it with Sue Wilson's snowflake
embossing folder.
I then cut a smaller mat and I then added this to the top part
of my card.
I cut out my image with a oval die and i then cut a larger mat
for this to sit on.
I then added this to the bottom half of the smallest topper.
I then tied a large bow out of deep red ribbon which I
added this just above the topper.
I then cut out my sentiment and I added this to the bottom of the card.

To finish off I added some 3D snow to the sentiment and then on to 
the topper as well.
I then added some red stickles glitter glue.

Thats all for today and I thank you for your continued support.
And the lovely comments that you leave me I do really Appreciate
them.

By Candle light






Good morning all I hope you are all well on this Saturday Morning
And looking forward to a good weekend.
What are you all up to today anything nice and exciting.

I would just like to welcome Karen and Sassy to my blog
And I hope that you enjoy what you see and that you
Can take away some inspiration.
Have you all seen the new craft channel Hochanda 
I thought it were going to be rubbish yesterday as the 
camera's and the sound were terrible but today it is alot better
but it's nice to watch a demo all the way through.
I have just seen in a craft magazine that theres another craft channel
starting on the 14th September on sky 216, So Create and Craft
are going to have some competition.

Todays card is a quick one and I am liking my black and white 
for this Christmas.

I started with a 5"x5" card this must be the smallest card I
have made for a long time but I have so Many small card which
I gor from Hunkydory along time ago when they where on special
from Create and craft. So I thought I'd better get them used.

I embossed a piece of white card with the snowflake embossing 
folder by Sue wilson.
Then I used the spellbinders floral oval die in black card.
And I cut the shimmering candles out of white card
which I added on to my black oval die cut and I them using
foam tape I added it to the centre of my card.
I used some liquid pearls to the candles so it looks like wax
running down the side and I used some red stickles for the berries.

I then cut some fern out of black card which I added to the top corner.
And the finish with I added a small red bow to the top
of the fern. I then added a red gem to the centre of the bow.

That's all for today and I thank you so much for all
your lovely comments I do really appreciate them.


Thanks all for today and I hope you all
have a lovely weekend
