hi guys me again, I'm really late with this post, but its been such a crazy day...
this is my Dt card for Vintage Elusions this weeks challenge is Fantasy, and we are being sponsored by Fresh Brewed Designs offering 3 digis of your choice, and Gingerloft Digi Stamps offering 3 digis of your choice .
this is my card, i have used muted colours to reflect stars at night...there is a little glitter but i don't think i picked it up in the pic, i really need to practise my photography.

i made the flowers from velum to give a soft delicate feel, added some lace a touch of ribbon and a moth , ok its a butterfly but they don't fly at night so its a moth ! lol.
anyway i hope you like it and will come play along with us at Vintage Elusions .

hi guys
well here we are Monday again and another DT card for Visible Image stamps, this time i have gone for a muted gentle card, (yeah yeah i know that's odd for me lol) .
i have used paper from my stash, i think its molly blooms, then i took the Grunge Flourish and used it on opposing corners, i then turned it around and used the bottom of the image to stamp around the rest of the border, i love the depth it created. i then used the sentiment stamp Live the Life you've Imagined. and finished with a thin matching ribbon and a knot...
what do you think?

now onto some exciting news , there are some new stamps launching on the 3rd November , beautiful stamps believe me, there are 2 new releases already on the website, and the rest will be there on the 3rd, make sure you check it out seriously they are fab ...

i used an image from one of our sponsors, Smudgtastic digis they are offering 5 digis of your choice to the winner, we also have Stamping Dragon designs offering 4 digis of your choice.
so this is what i came up with, (you may need your shades ,lol )

hugs xx

ok so the hair was driving me crazy so i redid  it lol
i wonder how often we pull apart a finished card and redo part of it? anyway her she is with her new hairdo LOL



Morning all,
hope everyone is well today, here is my DT makes for Visible image, first is another vintage Santa card.
i used the Vintage santa stamp, the backing paper is a brown envelope i cut open and used the inside, i used the beautiful Gaudete background stamp  in the centre, then went down each side with the snowy background  stamp.  Then using more of the envelope i cut out an oval and stamped the Vintage Santa, i made a banner and stamped the Vintage Merry Christmas this was all embossed in copper,i finished off with a gold ribbon bow, and embellished this in the centre with a snowflake from the snowy Background and a single gem for just a touch of bling......
 
then in complete contrast i made a bright tag using the Stunning Corset , i love this stamp... i used a pretty backing paper from my stash for the tag and printed a coordinating blue paper for the corset, added lots of lace to the tag, this is a beautiful soft feminine lace so went with the corset perfectly.

i stamped the corset twice to give depth and cut one stamped image, then very carefully sewed the corset with a sliver of satin ribbon to give the lacing effect. to finish i added lace to the top and bottom of the corset.


Don't forget you still have time to enter the Autumn theme challenge at Visible Image there are some great prizes of , £20 worth of stamps for the first prize, £10 for the second and £5 for the third, and you get to chose the stamps!.
hope you like these makes and will come play along with the challenge you have till the 4th November to enter....
