Fairy kitten


This is the fairy kitten from 'A Day For Daisies'. Such a cute image and for dog lovers there is a cute sausage dog with wings. I've had both the images for a long time but I noticed they are still available. The kitty body is plain so you can add stripes or patches as you wish. Artistic licence is a wonderful thing so my kitty can have a pink nose and ears.


Butterfly challenge 190 Fairy time again -  The yellow paper has butterflies which I thought would be fun as your challenge usually features butterflies.

black 'n' white wreath






 I was trying to get a better pic of the glass shapes I have stuck on this card but when they are clear it's very hard. Some are square and some are round. The wreath die is old and reminds me of stag horns, I seem to have thrown away the package it came it but possibly kaisercraft.

a gloomy day



I use a small red canon camera for my pics and the gold card has picked up the reflection from the camera and my hands. I did make a second card with a larger bauble and no gold card which is in a previous post.






 a little santa die - I made 2 of these cards as  I loved the bauble paper .

December is the start of Summer here in Tasmania and whilst mainland Australia has extreme temps we don't do too badly here. When we have a really hot day we usually get a storm to cool things down . Today is one of those days and the storm has taken out the power . I had  started cooking a beef rendang for dinner but that will be put on hold until tomorrow as I have to go out this afternoon  . Maybe a  quick chicken stir fry if the power is back on by 8pm.


Embossed bauble


Sometimes simple is best. I love the white and gold ( but not too much gold ) . The dies were still out from making other cards so another quick card came together. Are you like me I find making festive cards a breeze but anything else and  I struggle to come up with ideas. 

Allsorts challenge  week 758 - I spy something beginning with "B". A pretty snowflake bauble.
 

a snowy christmas


 a quick card in the making- Die cut trees, house and a sentiment- the snow mound is embossed with snowflakes. The house and one tree raised on sticky pads the sentiment cut out 3 times and stacked. I added a few sparkles to some of the snowflakes in the background paper.  I made a few of these as they came out better than expected.


Simon Says Stamps -   Monday challenge .Use dies in DieCember - The little house die is from Sizzix , the sentiment is a die from Hunky Dory . I don't have the packet for the trees so unsure of origin.
