Twisted Thursday cards

 

The Twisted Thursday challenge over at the Outlawz has started and I want to show you what I have created, I have to say I’m sorry (again) for not getting them out right away but we have had some not so good things happen and I really do not want to get into to it and I really do not think you want to be upset and I know that is what it will do. So we will talk about creating cards but this is a tag… I seen this image and I just fell in love with it, I think it is adorable it is one by Aurora Wings and it is called  Christmas Tree Spirit with a Gingerbread man. It was so much fun to color and add some decorations to it and to make it 3D. That is our Twist for this challenge WINTER SPARKLES AT CHRISTMAS. 

Not sure if you can see but I added Martha Steward train edger across the tag.  The paper I used is from DCWV winter solstice stack. I loved the blue so I added blue and diamond gems.

These are the copic markers I used to color the tree. My stickers are from EK Success.

 

Here is the close up od the image and I printed 3 of the little tree and cut all 3 out. Added a little star dust stickles and just a little snow.

These tags are so much fun. Have you seen the tags over at the Ellen Huston Blog they are having the 12 days of Christmas tags going on. I just love most of the tags, I really love Day 7 Paula Cheney, Day 9 Teri Anderson, Day 10 Sharon Harnist, Day 4 Kittie Caracciolo, oh my I could go on and on I guess I love all of them. Why do you check for yourself.

This is what is called a Tent card. The sentiment is called MERRY CHRISTMAS HOLLY #2 and the ornaments CHRISTMAS ORNAMENT #1  are from Stitchy Bear.

Everything is colored with Gelly Roll star pens and Wink of Stella pens.

Spellbinders standard circles large to cut the circle out. Memory box pine needle border die. Added some Aleene’s true snow. Flower punch 6 petal. This is how the tent card look from the sides.

Added 3 holly leafs and some seed beads in red to the ornaments.

Close up of the ornaments.

Punched out some tiny snow flakes and added them. My ribbon is from the Christmas section at Hobby Lobby.

The flower punch is the 6 petal one and added some seed beads color red to the center.

Close up of the sentiment.

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family.

I cannot believe it is time again for Scrapy Land challenge #6, those two weeks went by so fast. So today is the start of a new challenge from Scrapy Land and the theme is to add texture plus use any brand of die that Scrapy Land sells at the store I have been posting this list so you can see all the different brands of dies that Scrapy Land carries. I hope this help you. The die cut I used is from  Spellbinder and it is called Branching out. You can find it here. You can win a $15.00 gift certificate to Scrapy Land!

The texture I added was Magic mesh in white and gold, Pink organdy ribbon and added a button on the top. Some pink fibers under the magic mesh. A line of pink roses.

Here is another view of how the card looks.

I have never made a card using the die cut as the card itself, I guess it worked pretty good and I used double sided paper it is from Heartfelt creations daphne stack. These are the copic markers used to color the image.

Here is the close up of the image. My images I used is the adorable PPink by Chrishanthis shop image and she is called “Pinky with flaffy Kitten”. I just love her images they are so darling. I added some sparkle to her wings.

Around the scalloped oval and both sentiments added krylon gold leafing pen. I had the perfect ribbon called celestial offray to add it is one I got at Michaels store.  Added some stickles glitter glue in gold and midnight blue.

These are the copic marker used to color the image. This time I finished off the inside. I just loved these colors together.

Whispering Trees

Hello everyone it is time for The Outlawz Twisted Thursday challenge and for this week the Twist is “GIVE THANKS”. We have a sponsor for this month is Stitchy Bear and the image I’m using is called “WHISPERING TREES” and you can fine   

                                        

 

    

I printed out the image and the inks I used for the background are Marvy Matchable colors salvia blue, pale orange, sunshine, azure seas, green green. I punched out a 1 inch circle and put it where I wanted the sun to be. I used Eclipse paper for that. Love the paper it always works so good.

I used some thick paper and made a a line across the paper where I wanted to have the darkness horizon and from their I added the sunshine and a little of the peach. Once the sky was done I removed the circle and added more sunshine color.  

This card is really easy to make and I would of loved to have added something more to the inside and I think I will, but I have not been feeling very good so I have been taking it easy so the inside really has nothing special. I will chance that.

These darling tiny flower are from cherry lyn designs called tiny flower kit B376. They are so much fun to use.

Here is the close up of the scene. The butterfly is from Martha Steward. Almost forgot about that. Thanks for stopping by and I will get caught up so I will be by and see all your wonderful projects.
