The Magic of Christmas!

Hello! Can you believe it is September already?! Today Little Claire's release their new monthly club stamp, and this month they have a lovely Christmas set for you called 'The Magic of Christmas' :)

The set includes 3 images and 4 sentiments and really can be used it lots of different ways!

For this card I have used the Sleigh stamp and coloured it with ProMarkers. I have them cut out the image using 'Classic Circle' Nestabilities and mounted it on lilac cardstock cut with 'Scalloped Circle' Nestabilities. Both of the sentiments I have used come with the set. The circular one is mounted on card cut using 'Lacey Circles' Nestabilities. The other sentiment is cut using an Xcut die. The papers are  from Wild Rose Studio, pearls and ribbon from my stash :)

I would like to enter my card in the following challenges:
I Love ProMarkers #132- Anything Goes
Simon Says Stamp - Anything Goes

Thanks for stopping by to take a look at my card :) Remember to check out the other DT cards over on the Little Claire website :) x

Christmas Changing Tree...

Hello there! I hope you are having a lovely weekend! :)

Today I am continuing with my catch up of new Christmas designs from Little Claire's :) They have designed some lovely little stamps to go with their gorgeous 'Changing Tree' stamp. You can buy this as a complete set with the tree or just the embellishments if you already own the Changing Tree stamp.

For this card I have coloured the image using ProMarkers and cut it out using Nestabilities. The scalloped circle is cut using Nestabilities out of Kraft card and is all lightly inked with light brown Memento ink. The papers are Craft Creations, flowers, gems, button and Candi from my stash.

For this card I have again coloured the image using ProMarkers and then mounted it on red & black cardstock. This is a very simple card using papers by Echo Park, a sentiment from LOTV & some card Candi to finish off.

I would like to enter my cards in the following challenges:
I love ProMarkers #130 - 'Gardens' (first card)
Passion for ProMarkers #162- 'Shaped Cards' (second card)

Christmas Week at Little Claire's :)

Everyday this week Little Claire's have been releasing their Christmas Designs- and there are some gorgeous designs, believe me! I am behind with my posts to show the cards so I have popped by to show a couple of my cards, and I will do my best to follow this up with more posts over the weekend to catch up with all the releases :)

One of my favourite new stamps is 'Silhouette Manger', which is such a lovely stamp to use (and with no colouring!)

Here is one of the cards I have made with this stamp:

I have stamped the image onto kraft card, along with the sentiment that also comes with the stamp. I have used dark brown cardstock to mount my image and papers. The papers are from Craftwork Cards, pearls from my stash. A very simple card, but I am pleased with the outcome :)

My second card with this stamp is also a simple one:

This time I have stamped the image using brown ink, again onto kraft card. I have also used kraft card to make the card base. I have mounted the image using dark brown and light green card then added a sentiment from LOTV and some pearls from my stash :)

Here is a card I have made with the set:

I have coloured the image with ProMarkers and cut it out using Nestabilities, as well as the scalloped rectangle behind. The sentiment is also from Little Claire's, but this time the 'Sunshine Sentiments' set. I have used just one image out of the 5 included in the set, so there is lots to use! The papers are from Craft Creations and I have inked all the edges with pale lilac ink.
