It's a Crafters companion sketch 10

Morning all can't believe how fast the weeks are going were on to sketch 10 already over at It's a Crafters companion challenge blog This weeks sketch is by Rachel + there's a recipe to follow use the colours White, Red & Gold
some ribbon, gems and some Embossing it can be either.

why not pop over and have a go also see what the other DT members have come up with.
here's my card i've turned the sketch on it's side first i stamped & heat embossed the Crafters companion Christmas flower fairy stamp with gold embossing powder then coloured her using copics & Iridescent H2os for the wings then using the cuttlebug christmas tree embossing folder i embossed a piece of white & a piece of gold card and cut them out using the gold as a mat i attached a piece of Acetate to the back of the fairy at one end and the other to the back of the tree before attaching to the card so the fairy is floating in front of the tree.

Finally got one done

Hi all hope everyones well must get round to doing some blog hopping been really lapse on visiting your blogs don't know where the weeks are going didn't seem that long since my last post my hubby has been asking for a month for me to make this card for one of his workmates had to get a hold of his identity card from work with out him getting suspicious so i could scan the photo i've just got round to doing it the night before his birthday just seems so much of an effort been so much going on in the family lately that when i do get a bit time to myself my mind seems to be some where else right back to the card was made in publisher and printed onto photo paper the back and inside where printed seperately enabling me to make the pocket using acetate so the full pass is on show usually i'd laminate the pass to make it a bit sturdier but can i find the laminating pouches don't have to make the next one til september so they should of shown up by then.

Hi all just popped on with my Grandson's Christmas card found the Ben 10 image on the net took it through 3dcd2 to Decoupage it and make the backing sheet i used gold mirricard for matting with border peeloffs to neaten the edges i used Heat resistant acetate to emboss the greeting on using an embossing pen and gold embossing powder then matting it onto some green card i used a Santa key for embellishment i attached it to the card by using an eyelet and threading a thin piece of acetate through the ribbon then slotting it through the eyelet and taping it to the inside of the card i've told my daughter she can snip the acetate with some scissors to remove it from the card.

Trying a Negative Effect

Hi i've used this image which i used for my blog header loved the effect it gave when the colours were inverted so thought i'd try it on a card i took it into a graphics programme to put the background pattern behind it and printed it onto printable acetate to use as a wrap when printing on transparency you cant use the borderless setting which worked ok as its given it a silver border round the card i used two gem brads to attach it to the base card and added different coloured gems to the centre of the flowers the base card is silver Mirricard its took longer to try and get a descent photo than what it did to make the card
