Very Merry Xmas


Hi to my fellow blogging friends. Today I am sharing one of many cards for my DT post at Cherish The Memory using the beautiful new winter collections from Studio Light available in Cherish The Memory Etsy Shop.


This card uses the stunning 6x6 paper pad along with the Ephemera and Topper sheets which have super diecut components to add to your card.


Lots of layers built up on my card with foam strips for added dimension, some tuille, cotton ribbon rose and a sprinkling of chunky white powder for added texture.

Little Fawn Christmas Baubles - Craft Consortium


Hi Everyone, for my DT post with Craft Consortium I have been playing with Christmas Baubles from their MDF range which also come with a handy Christmas stencil.


I decided to use the latest paper pad on my Baubles called Little Fawn and Friends which is every bit as beautiful as all their other pads.


I started by fussy cutting out all the images I wanted to layer onto my Baubles.  I sprinkled some chunky white Embossing powder onto my trees and heat set for a wintry feel and edged my animals with a little distress ink.


I then gave my Baubles a coat of Gesso and once dry I applied a layer of Decoupage Paper onto both sides with Mod Podge Matt. Once dry I sanded my edges to make it nice and neat and added a layer of Mod Podge Sparkle for a glistening effect. I added some metallic Embossing powder at the top of the Baubles heat setting in place and rubbed some Rose Gold Gilding Wax over the surface and around the edges for a metallic feel.


Now onto the fun part of layering up all my elements with Silicone Glue to create small scenes.


Finishing them off with glitter ribbon and these exquisite little pine cones, along with lots of sparkly glass glitter.

Beautiful Day


Hi to my fellow blogging friends. Today I am sharing one of many cards for my DT post at Cherish The Memory using the beautiful new winter collections from Studio Light available in Cherish The Memory Etsy Shop.

This card uses the stunning 6x6 paper pad along with the Ephemera and Topper sheets which have super diecut components to add to your card.


I framed my topper in a white glittery snowflake frame adding on a snow flower along with foliage from the card set pads and Stickles glitter around my sentiment. 


My stars and white Christmas sentiment have been fussy cut from the paper pad. I also added a sprinkling of white chunky Frantage Powders for a snowy effect.

Oh Christmas Tree - Craft Consortium


Hi everyone, today for my DT post at Craft Consortium I have been playing with another of their newly launched MDF products.



I started by adding a layer of Embossing paste through a stencil onto all sides of my tree and once dry added a couple of layers of Acrylic paint. I then highlighted my stencilling and the edges of the tree with some Gilding Wax and finished with lots of red berries using Nuvo Drops.



On my base I added a layer of Decoupage paper and some Mod Podge Sparkle onto my top Layer. I added small felt circles into my Candle bases and some Glitter Ribbon around the edges.

I finished by adding a floral arrangement and lots of sparkly snowflakes with Rhinestones in the centres.
