Christmas cards

G'day everyone,
It's that time of year again.  I had an order for some chrissy cards and thought I'd betta start on them pronto, (still took many a nite).  I had some very old metal embellishments and with the Copic pens was able to give them a new face lift.  The ribbon was also coloured.  SU cardstock, ds paper, Spellbinders oval scallop, and some very old Sizzix papers was put to use.
So for the next cpl of posts are going to be chrissy cards.

Embellishing my new orthopedics

Hi everyone
Today I had to get some new orthopedic thongs (slip-ons) lol  for my bung feet.  They only had a black and grey pair left.  So what does a girl have to do, decorate them ofcourse!!!!  Being a crafty girl and a good imagination - that's what I proceeded to do.
  I used DCWV Old World adhesive Ribbon, cloth flower petals, yellow buttons and silver Kindy glitz.  I still had to do some blanket stitching on the ribbon to hold it down.
Have a gr8 week ppls   :D

sliding door face

Hi everyone,
Sorry for the lack of posts.   Lost my mojo for a couple of weeks trying to catch up with other stuff.  Having Christmas around the corner, I have been busy trying to make cards requested by a friend.  Here's the face to the sliding door of  my bathroom.  I think it just needs a little more work.  What do you think???

WIP (Work In Progress) update

Hi everyone,
As you can see my door is gradually taking shape.  Not sure if  I like where the painting is heading.. Good thing is I can always paint over and redo the whole thing.  Lol sometimes I wished I kept some of my old paintings except their under 10 other paintings done on top of one another.  Will keep you posted with progress pics. 
Let me know what you think?   I'm always interested to know what everyone's thought are.

Have a gr8 wkend ....   :D

Hi everyone,
WIP - I finally decided to paint the sliding door to the bathroom.   :D  Lol I can see my kids tell me that I shouldn't be painting on walls and doors since they always got in trouble.   At least I don't have to worry about where to store the painting once it's finished...

Some days some cards inspiration comes easier than other days, and this is one of those days.  I was asked to make an engagement card for a friend.  This is what I've come up with,  A4 size was needed.  Now this fits into a few of the challenges that I regularly enter into into.  The first is http://fantabulouscricut.blogspot.com/  challenge # 72 (lets get buggy) and http://diecuttindivas.blogspot.com/  challenge #27 (garden showcase) since his proposing to her in the great outdoors.
