Papercrafting kits

I have loads of papercrafting kits and I really should use them so I made a few cards from some of them.  Just quick cards but fun to make, all from Crafter's Companion papercrafting kits.

Two Christmas ones first from Bebunni 

One from Humprey's Corner

 

Some birthday cards

 One from Angelina

 

Two from the Fairie Poppets range

 The lovely pastel green colour of the card does not show up in this photo.

Time for stamping and colouring now, see you soon.

Princess Angelina

 I used Copic pens and Spectrum Noir pencils to colour this digistamp.  She has been cut out using a Spellbinders Floral Oval die and surrounded with flowers.  Two different spellbinder dies were used to make the sentiment which has been stamped using a Lili of the Valley stamp.

Purple Birthday

The Silver fairy from Wee Stamps, I coloured her with Copic pens and Spectrum Noir pencils.  Her wings are glittered with Glamour dust.  I cut the stamped image with the Spellbinders Lacy squares and the corner  was cut with a Marianne die and also glittered with Glamour dust.  The backing paper is from one of the Crafters Companion CD's but I cannot remember which one.  The sentiment stamp is from Lili of the Valley.

Dandelion Girl

My first challenge card for a long, long time.  I have missed entering all the challenges.

I used  Dandelion Girl from Wee stamps, she is coloured with Copic pens and Spectrum Noir pencils.  The Butterfly and stamens of the flowers were also coloured with the Copic pens to match the girls dress.  The sentiment stamp is from Lili of the Valley.

I know the flowers I have added are not dandelions but I like them and she is a cute stamp.

More topper cards

A few more cards made with the toppers hiding in my cupboard,  

Here is another window die, the Heartfelt Creations one with a Kanban 

topper behind it and Marianne flourish dies behind a Kanban sentiment.  I also cut the backing card using a Spellbinders Grand die.

Here is another card using the same window and backing card but with the window shutters closed.  Looks a bit plain in the scan like this.

and another card using the same window and more Kanban toppers and sentiments.

This time the window is cut with mirri card and the rest of the backing card from the card I made yesterday.  I like this card and will have to see if I can get anymore of it.

Terrible weather

What terrible weather, deffinately not the weather to have a holiday.

Back to crafting.  I have not made a card for a couple of weeks but I will be back to normal soon.  I have a few to show you using my new dies and some toppers I have had for a few years.  Why I bought so many I don't know as I have hardly used any but they cannot stay unused.  

The topper is a Kanban one from a few years ago and she is matted onto the Spellbinders Lacey Squares die and the Poinsettia is also a Spellbinders set of dies.  I think the Poinsettia one is going to be well used this year.  The backing card is also from Kanban.

Another Kanban topper put behind a window die from Cottage Cutz.  The sentiment is also from Kanban and put ontop of a Spellbinders die and the flourish's are cut from a Marianne die.  I printed the card used to make the base last year and I think it was from a Crafter's Companion CD.

I have LOADS more toppers and I am determined to use them this year, well maybe not all of them but I will use a good number of them.  They make good quick cards especially with the dies I have.

To celebrate my new card blog I will be having a giveaway soon.  I have three of Jayne Nestorenko's Cute Companion stamp plates to giveaway to one of my follower's.  I will post the Candy post in a day or two so make sure you pop back to enter.

 

I found a new digi stamp company, well new to me Wee Stamps  the stamps are very cute and of course I had to buy some and I know I will be buying more of them very soon.  I also found a new challenge blog     

 

 J and C Creations

 

Their first challenge is 'All that Glitters' and as I was just finishing this card I just had to enter.  Her wings and the flower centre's have glitter on them.

Battery has gone in my camera and the scanner did not want to scan this card properly as the base card is white so I had to put my A4 cutting mat behind it.  Never mind it's finally scanned.

I coloured the image with Copics and wanted to give the clothing a frabricy (is that a word LOL) look so once I had coloured it I covered the outfit with the blender pen and it does make a difference although it is not really noticeable in the scan and neither is the glitter   : (      Lots of different Spellbinder dies, a Marianne die and some punches.
