CCT Sparkle

This weeks theme at CCT is Sparkle, perfect for all your Christmas cards. I have used a Spellbinder bauble die and a Creative Expressions stamp for my card. I have stamped the image with Versamark and then used Ranger sticky embossing powder so that I could cover the image with glitter. The photo does not really show the sparkle but it is really 'blingy'. The sentiment is Stampin Up.


We have another fab prize to give away this week so I hope you'll be able to join in the challenge.
Have a good week.

CCT Spooktacular

This weeks challenge at CCT is Spooktacular. I have used one of my favourite stamps Crowscape from Stampendous. I have just stamped the image onto white card, run the corner of it through the Cuttlebug Houndstooth embossing folder and inked around the edge of the card with Distress Inks. I also added some Fran-Tage to the corner of the black card. 


I hope you'll be able to join in this weeks challenge as we have another fab prize. Have a good week.

CCT Candyman

This weeks challenge at CCT is Candyman, we'd like to see candy or sweets on your project. I struggled to find an image and eventually found this rubber stamp which I have had in my stash for years and forgotten about! I think its quite cute actually, how happy does the little cat look?  and perfect for this challenge with the little candy canes. The image has been stamped onto watercolour paper and coloured with Distress Inks, I'd forgotten how much I enjoyed this method of colouring.  I cut the tag from Kraft card and used an old piece of Basic Grey DP.


I hope you'll be able to join in this weeks challenge as we have a fab prize for 1 lucky winner. Have a good week.

CCT Neutral Zone

This weeks theme at CCT is Neutral Zone. I have made a very quick and simple card using my Stampin Up Joyful Christmas set. I have stamped and embossed the poinsettia twice onto vellum and layered up the center petals. I stamped and embossed the image and sentiment onto a kraft card base and added a few pearls to the poinsettia. I saw a card very similar on the internet and just love the simplicity of it.



It's off to bed for me in a few minutes as I've worked the past 3 nights and am in again tonight plus I didn't sleep much yesterday so I'm hoping for a better day today. If not I've got 2 nights off to recover!
Enjoy your Thursday.
