Pizza Party

 Here's a birthday card for my pizza-loving son. I used an SVG cutting file. I stamped the banner and sentiment (Avery Elle??) and created and cut the 18 on my digital cutting machine.

Frosted Noel

 It's warm and humid here in south east England but it's very frosty on this Christmas card. I used a Hobby Art stamp, white embossing powder, white pencil and a border doodled with white gel pen.

Three Cats

Since the weather warmed up, my cat has been pretty much living wild in a thicket behind our house- he just comes in for food and shoots off again. He also seems to have made a friend - another black and white cat from some neighbouring flats. They sit a few metres away from each other though, not cuddling up like the three on my card.

OLC Christmas

 Back after a little blog break and straight in with a Christmas in July card . Actually, I don't think there's a month in the year when I wouldn't enjoy making a Christmas card - I just love them! 

This one-layer card uses a Woodware penguin and snowflakes by Uniko.

Wedding Card

 I made this card for my nephew's wedding. I designed and cut it on my Silhouette Cameo digital cutter, using foiled scrapbook papers and a scrapbook embellishment as the sentiment. The main image is Colorado Craft bunnies.

My daughter and I fantasise about going to New York near Christmastime, for the shopping - so I made this first card for her.  I used manual dies plus stamps and markers.

Sparkles Monthly Christmas Transport

This one was cut on a Silhouette digital cutter and I've kept largely to the design - I just changed up the colours, used patterned paper on the trees, liquid pearl snow and stamped the sentiment. 

Little Penguin

 This little MFT penguin is skipping through the dry-embossed snow, with die-cut trees and sentiment.

Inkspirational Challenges - Stencils

 

Our new challenge at Inkspirational is

For my DT card I create a scene with a loose stencil background, a die cut Christmas tree and stamped streetlight, cute animals and sentiment. 

This is my last challenge with Inkspirational. After 12 years I am leaving the DT with sadness and pride - they are a wonderful team and a fantastic challenge blog - but competing priorities have meant that I haven't felt I've been 'pulling my weight' lately and so it's time to move on. 

I hope you'll go over there now and see what the DT have made and enter your own creation.
