Winnie in Earmuffs

Did you see Walter and Winnie on TV, it was great to see the new Walter and Winnie does Christmas CD on Create and Craft this week.  The DT have been lucky enough to have had the CD for a while now and the image on my card for this weeks Willlow Sketchie Challenge - Winnie in Earmuffs - is from the Decoupagee section:


This week  Lis M has provided us with this fab sketch to work with:

I embossed some Kraft card with a Polka Dot Mask for the base and used my new Edgeabilities to cut a decorative edge on some of the lovely papers from the CD.  Winnie is mounted on a Kraft die cut shape which in turn is mounted on some more lovely papers from the CD.  The alphabet tiles have been cut from some Kaisercraft papers that were free with my Simply Homemade magazine and then matted onto some pink core'dinations card stock.  Full details of everything I have used are listed below.

This is the inside of my card, I have decorated it to complement the front:

Tools:  Cuttlebug embossing folder, Spellbinders -Labels Nineteen, Edgeabilities Classic Petal

Witch Betty

Time for another Crafting for all Seasons Challenge and this time the theme is Halloween or Halloween Colours (purple, lime green, orange and black).  I was lucky enough to get to play with images from both of our sponsors this week - Pink Cat Studio and Just Some Lines.

I'm going to show one card this week and one card at the challenge half way point next week and I've chosen to show 'Witch Betty Decorates Tree' from Pink Cat Studio first:


I decide to make a step card using one of my B-C-E templates for a change, I cut the base card from Kraft and used some free papers from Crafter's Companion.  The TRICK and TREAT letters are from Polka Doodles - Sundae of Seasons and the flowers, buttons and twine are from my stash.  As usual I used white seam binding for the bow and coloured it with my ProMarkers.

This is a slightly better view of the 'step':

   Papers:  Crafter's Companion - Member Download of the Month
Tools:  B-C-E step card template
Embellishments:  seam binding, flowers, buttons and twine from stash
Sentiment:  Polka Doodles - Sundae of Seasons

Pretty in Red

Two posts in one day, that's a first for me I think.  I'm cutting it a bit fine with my entry for Top Tip Tuesday this week so I'd better get on with it, here is my card:



The image is from Joanna Sheen's Faye Whittaker Collection and the papers are NitWit Collections Cookin' Cookies.  I matted the papers onto red core'dinations card stock and the image onto gold card and then the same red core'dinations.  The red border strip is die cut from the red core'dinations card and the ribbon was some white organza coloured with a red ProMarker.  I dismantled some red Poinsettias and re-assembled them to make one larger flower with more layers, added some leaves and a label to finish.  Full details of everything I have used are listed below.

 This is the inside of my card:

Papers:   NitWit Collections - Cookin' Cookies 
Tools:  Spellbinders - Lace Doily Accents, Classic Squares (inside card)
