Stepper card blank is from Crafter's Companion

Dies and stamps are by Paper Discovery, we added acetate and sequins to make a shaker card.

 

Rose Gold Christmas

This card was inspired by one I saw on Pinterest, unfortunately I can't figure out who the original creator is in order to credit them properly.

I've used pale grey card (colour not showing accurately here due to my poor photography) and splattered it with white gesso.

The poinsettia dies are by Sue Wilson and are a mix of pale grey, white shimmer, and rose gold cardstocks. I've also used rose gold glitter card, with foliage dies by Crafter's Companion, in real life it's a beautiful colour.

The sentiment stamp is by Chloe, stamped and heat embossed with copper embossing powder on a pale peach shimmer card. Finished card is 7 x 7 inches.

Purple birthday

I used white embossing powder and an Inkadinkado swirl stamp on some plain lilac card.

The sentiment stamp is by Hobby Arts

I think the swirl stamp is Crafter's Companion

 

Birthday Wishes

A card I made last month for Val's birthday

I used alphabet dies and sentiment stamp by Crafter's Companion, blending inks, and ombre paper (I think this was Hobbycraft)

Flowers are Prima.

 

Baby

Same alphabet dies as previous post.

This time I tried plain card but edged each letter with glitter.

Other alphabet is Sizzix

 

Craig

Card I made for my brother's birthday.

I bought a set of alphabet and number dies from Crafters Companion recently. I didn't exactly need another alphabet set but this one was a bargain £12, and it's slightly different to all my others.

The set does not cut the whole piece out, it scores down the left-hand side. I wanted to try it out on stripey paper because I needed to make sure each letter was level, and this seemed the easiest way to do that.

 

Happy Birthday

A card I made for one of my card club ladies, Margaret.

I used Crafter's Companion patterned paper, and I think the sentiment die is by Tonic.

 

Mum

UTEC

I bought a cheap pot of Ultra Thick Embossing Crystals from Craft Clearance.
I've added three layers to a piece of thick card, then pushed a script rubber stamp in while the top layer was still hot.

Embossing folder is by Crafters Companion and I've added Nuvo drops.
Sentiment die from AliExpress.

Large Butterfly

To try and keep my card club ladies motivated during lockdown I decided to set a challenge every week.
This was easier said than done because I had no idea just what sort of craft stash and equipment they have at home.

One week I drew a quick sketch so the challenge was to make a card matching my layout idea. After I'd sketched it out I made a sample card myself. It was at this point that I realised I didn't like the placement of the two strips (top left) and should have dropped them down to the next square, never mind!

I used patterned paper and a large butterfly die set, both by Crafter's Companion. To give an idea of scale the card is 8 x 8 inches so the butterfly really is quite big.

Merry Christmas

Image is a recycled one from a card I received a few years back. I know the person who sent me it used SU products.

It was too nice to throw away so I re-mounted it on an embossed panel. The embossing folder is by Crafters Companion and I've added some Liquid Pearls.

Embossing folder is Crafters Companion
All dies are Bright Rosa

Storybook

A bit dark for photographs but never mind.

I've used Crafters Companion Storybook die set. The sentiment die is also CC and I suspect some, if not all, of the snowflake dies are too.

The top layer is white pearlescent card that I've stamped using a Chloe snowflake border stamp then heat embossed with white powder. It's not very visible here at all but I've used pale blue and teal Colour Cloud inks to lift the stamped snowflakes and also the edges of the white card.
