CCT Something Fun

This week's theme at CCT is Something Fun. I've made a card for my son's birthday using these fun Die-namics high tops dies. The sentiment is from a set by Autumn Leaves which I have had for many years. I cut it out with Spellbinders nesting circles dies and decorated the strip of card with a Lawn Fawn Stitched Borders die.

CCT Anything Goes

We have a nice and easy theme at CCT this week, Anything Goes. I've decided to make a start on my Xmas cards and have used the Snowy stamp from Penny Black. I've been after this stamp for a long time and managed to buy it from a selling site on Facebook, although I think it has recently been re released. The image is coloured with Copics and I paper pieced his scarf and hat using Lawn Fawn Perfectly Plaid Christmas papers. The dies are by Die-Namics and the background paper is from the same Lawn Fawn pad. I added some Creative Expressions Iced Snow beneath the snowman and Diamond Sprinkles on his hat.

CCT In The Round

This weeks theme at CCT is In The Round. I recently treated myself to the Making Waves dies by Neat and Tangled,I think it is such a nice set. The stamps and matching dies are Lawn Fawn and I coloured the images with Copics. The circles in the background are another new stamp from Neat and Tangled, called falling Circles. The fishtails tags are a Die-Namics die.

I've ordered myself a set of Kuretake Clean Color brush pens which will hopefully arrive today or tomorrow, I'm looking forward to having a play with them. I've watched a few You Tube videos but any tips would be great.

CCT Embossing

The theme at CCT this week is embossing. I have made a card using Die-namics Blueprints 15 dies and a Penny Black image. The image is coloured with Copics and I have added some glitter. The sentiment from Mama Elephant has been heat embossed.

I have missed a couple of challenges due to my holiday in Prague which we really enjoyed and I have been doing overtime to pay for the holiday! Hopefully I'm back now.

CCT Something Shiny

The theme at CCT this week is Something Shiny. I treated myself to this super cute Mama Elephant stamp set called Arctic Penguins and they were sat on my desk so I decided to use them for this weeks card. The stars are cut out of the navy card with a Die-Namics die and I put some silver mirri card behind. The penguins are coloured with Copics and I used a Lil-Inker die for the snow drifts. The sentiment is Stampin Up.

Don't think I've ever made a Christmas card in April before!

Anniversary Card

Today is my 24th wedding anniversary, can't quite believe its been so long! This is the card I made for my hubby, using images and a sentiment from the Mama Elephant Some Bunny set. I coloured the bunnies and carrots with Copics and then cut them out with the matching die set. The frame is a Die-Namics die and the cloud is Paper Smooches. 

I am entering this card into a couple of challenges: 

Daring Cardmakers - Hand-Krafted Creations

Penny Black and More - Feature A Creature

CCT Sweet Valentines

This weeks theme at CCT is Sweet Valentines. I've made a card for my hubby using the MFT Ewe Are The Best stamps and co ordinating dies. I saw a card very similar to this on the internet and just loved the design of it so decided to make something like it. The grass is stamped and cut from MFT paper and the sheep has been coloured with Copics and Wink of Stella on the heart. The hexagon stamped on the brown card is another MFT stamp which I stamped in Versamark. The rectangle is a MFT die and the tag is Mama Elephant.

CCT Hey What's New

I hope you all had a great New Years eve. I spent mine at work which wasn't very exciting! We have another great challenge at CCT this week which is What's New, we would like to see some of your new crafting goodies. I have to admit to buying rather a lot of new stuff over the past few weeks and I really must stop now. 

I have used a Kraft card base which I used a Lil Inker die on to make the faux stitching and hand cut a tag. The dog stamp and matching die are Avery Elle and the sentiment and dragonfly are Mama Elephant. The scalloped border and flag dies are Die-Namics, the grass is a Lawn Fawn die and the papers are My Minds Eye. I added 3 gems to finish the card.

CCT Autumn Leaves

This weeks theme at CCT is Autumn Leaves I have made a tag using one of my favourite Edwin stamps and these lovely papers although I'm sure what make they are. Edwin was coloured with Distress markers and I have used quite a few Tim Holtz thinlit dies for embellishments. The word Autumn was cut with the Alphanumeric dies, the leaves are from the mini Tattered Florals and the swirls are from the Scribbles and Splats set. The scalloped edge is a Die-Namics die and the main tag is another Tim Holtz bigz die.

 I still have a few crafty items to sell but have managed to create a bit of space and I have sold more than I have bought which is good and quite surprising! I also treated myself to a new set of drawers so now have a nice crafty area which is remarkably tidy at the moment.

CCT Water

This weeks theme at CCT is water. I made a tag using some of the scraps which were on my desk from a previous CCT challenge. The papers are Graphic 45 By The Sea, the tag is cut with a Tim Holtz die and the little pennant is a Die-namics die. The only other things I've used are a piece of string and some burlap.
