I was thrilled to have my card chosen by Di in her Picks over at Pixie’s Crafty Workshop! Be sure to check it out! Thanks so omuch Di. Such an honour!
my final pick this time is such a sweet card, made by Helen F. House Meece images are a huge favourite of mine and this card is cute as can be. I adore the addition of the curls and snippets of ‘wrapping paper and ribbon’! Such a great touch.
Hello and welcome
Today it’s time for our new challenge over at Watercooler Wednesday! This week Cathy is hosting the Challenge –Anything with a Masculine Twist.
My card features House Mouse – Gifts to Tie stamp which was watercoloured with Distress Ink and fussy cut.
SSS & Memory Box – Full Card Bubbles die was cut from a pice of coffee box card that I had painted with Bronze acrylic paint.
This was added to a piece of red gloss card from a perfume package as I wanted something that would really pop through the circles.
Finally, a pice of black card was added along the bottom of the card and MFT – Die-namics Accent – Celebrate die (cut from a scrap of the painted card) was added.
The smaller sentiments from Winnie & Walter -The Big, the Bold and Greetings stamp set were embossed with Ranger Copper embossing powder.
The mouse and parcel were added to the card front on top of some scraps of wrapping paper and ribbons!! I imagined him busy trying to wrap all the presents!! 🙂
Hope it brings a smile!!
Thanks so much for taking the time to visit. I love to read your comments.
I hope your enjoying some crafty time.
Stay safe and take care
Cheers
Helen
