Snowflake

 

Here's a snowflake, cut on my Silhouette, using an SVG I designed several years ago. I embossed it using Frantage for the speckled/ distressed effect. I layered it onto scraps of patterned text paper and patterned vellum and added a gem and a stamped sentiment.

Cat with a Balloon

 Here's quite a minimalist birthday card with a cat (Stampin Up) and a balloon (Avery Elle), some paper piecing and a restrained black, white and yellow palette.

Antlers

 Decided to combine my need for Christmas cards with a couple of challenges. The reindeer is a Flora and Fauna stamp and the wobbly circle and snowflake were just leftovers I had hanging around.

Stay Warm

 

A little while ago I had a great time splattering diluted white acrylic paint at coloured card, and I'm using some here. I can't really decide whether the splatters are stars or snow ...maybe both? The cocoa-drinking polar bear and sentiment are MFT stamps.

Lion Card

 

This card arrived a little early for the baby boy's birthday, and I was told it was the first ever birthday card he received, which was sweet. It's very simple, using old stamps from different sets and slightly dimensional number and hearts.

Cat in a Gift Bag

 I was inspired by the challenge at Shopping Our Stash - The Cat is in the Bag. 

I stamped these presents and then cut the bow off  the tall one and added a handle - hopefully, it now works as a gift bag. The cat is one of the Avery Elle Peek-a-Boo Pals. The background looks painted but it is actually patterned paper.
