Colour Challenge at 52CCT

By
I think the heat is getting to me a little as I was not feeling too good yesterday. Too ill to craft even!!! So my post for the 52 {Christmas} Card Challenge is late - sorry!
The challenge this week is to use these fabulous colours


Now we do have some very strict rules when it comes to our colour challenges so please do check them out before you link up - of course we would never delete a card from our challenge but if you would like to be considered for an Honorable Mention (and who wouldn't?) you must follow the rules.

Ok - enough talk - here is my card


This is my favourite style of card - I love squares and repeating patterns so much! My ribbon is seam binding and I applied my double sided tape to the card first and then ruffled my ribbon as I went along - love this effect too.

Materials - Stampin' Up
Stamps: Pines & Poinsettias
Ink: Cherry Cobbler, Early Espresso, Always Artichoke
Card Stock: Very Vanilla, Early Espresso, Cherry Cobbler
Accessories: Seam Binding Ribbon
(To order any of the above current items or items from the Annual Catalogue please e-mail me on deezinesart@gmail.com - a catalogue pdf can be found in the side bar. Items can be delivered direct to you - just £4.95 p+p any size order. Also see the special offers above in the top tabs - thanks).

    The pine cones and holly fit the color scheme perfectly! I really like the ruffled ribbon, too. I hope you are feeling better by now!

Beauty of the Deep

I do love my nature stamps and I also love stamps of the sea whether it be above or below the waves. I have taken possession of a new set from the catalogue called Beauty of the Deep. I have made a card with this set as it lends it's self perfectly to the the new Boho Blue In Colour. It also has a gorgeous little fish which I couldn't wait to use - take a look Although I've mostly used blue ink I had added white highlights with a gel pen and then to finish it off a little sparkly blue gem. Thanks for stopping by today - if you wish to place an order or request a catalogue please drop me a message at  jacquelinenm68@gmail.com

 I have decided to try and get on top of my Christmas cards early this year and so far it’s going well!!! Here is a card that has been made using the Sweet Gingerbread set - I love gingerbread houses and the stamps and matching dies are really cute. I used the sketch from  52 Christmas Card Throwdown  - this is a brilliant Christmas challenge blog (I started it many years ago with Mynn Kitchen) and it’s a perfect way to get organised with Christmas crafting. Thank for stopping by today - see you soon - J xx

In The Frame.

Yesterday was birthday and my lovely husband bought me some crafting stash. Unfortunately he duplicated an ink pad (Distress Ink - Tea Dye) but the craft shop where he bought it were very kind and let me exchange it for something else. That something was a fab little Crafty Individuals stamp. So I raced home, turned my craft room upside down looking for my EZ Mount, and made this card for this week's Less is More  challenge. This week the girls wanted a one layer card with the theme 'In the Frame' Here is my card I made this by first masking off an area in the center of the card - directly on to a 5" x 5" white card blank. Then using my brayer I added some yellow, blue and green ink to the card. The masks were removed and the image was stamped over the brayered square. Thanks ladies for another fantastic challenge - Jacqueline xx.
