DCD candy/sweets

This week at Die Cut Dreams the challenge is Candy/Sweets. Loads of ways to interpret that =).

I made a gift box and the candy is stamped, glossed and I put a large glue dot under to make it bulgy. Template for the gift box I found here.

Allsorts monochrome

This week at Allsorts the challenge is monochrome (to use only one colour on your creation, it can be various nuances but only one main colour).

My colour is green and it's a card I made for my daughter's boyfriend who turned 20 recently. I really like the accordion flower, so easy to make and such a lovely effect - especially on male cards to get away from all those girly roses =). I put glue on the ends of the string, rolled it around a stick and let it dry to get those curly ends. Distress ink used: Forest Moss.

DCD anything but a card

This week at Die Cut Dreams the theme is Anything but a card. And... well... this is not a card =)


I used a piece of stone I found this summer by the ocean. Glued a candle holder, fastened a tag and some flowers and I have a living room decoration =).

Golden card

Yesterday I went to a craft fair and sold all my match boxes, loads of gift boxes and most of my Christmas cards. What was I thinking? Now I have no cards for myself...
And I promised to be on the Christmas market my sister has arranged the first weekend of December...
And the expansion to WoW comes out December 7...
I'm guessing it will be slightly hectic during next week =)

So I've started building up my Christmas card stock with this project.


Challenges:

Totally Tilda - gold and glitz

DCD Christmas club - anything goes

Simon says - sparkle

A spoon full of sugar - distressing

Just Magnolia - white plus one

Allsorts lace, ribbon, charm

This week at Allsorts we have a recipe for you: lace, ribbon and charm. I took a horrible picture of this cause the sign has a very pretty ribbon bow on top but I managed to cut that out of the picture...
It's a wooden sign for the downstairs bathroom, using a Meljen image, coloured in Pumice stone, some flowers - the newspaper one is home made - some punched paper lace from MS and a pretty little angel charm.

SFTW Winter

This fortnight at Stampin for the Weekend the theme is Winter.

I solved that by making a card using the adorable penguin digi images from digistamp boutique. I embossed some snow flakes on the TH paper and the alphabet is banana split. Distress ink: Tumbled glass.

WoywW

Today I finally have the new stamp kit from Stempelglede - Vintage garden. It's absolutely gorgeous and I love it. So right now I'm stamping on anything and everything just to admire them =)

DCD using staples

This week at Die Cut Dreams we want you to use staples on your work. And staples really are the coolest thing cause you can use them all over the place AND they fasten things at the same time =).

I made this year's family wish list to hang on the fridge. Stamped and distressed background, TH flower die (using tulle every other layer) and the alphabet Supermarket.
