Reindeers

I have used a black base card and my new Mariane Creatable Dies. I have added a red gem to the reindeers nose and some red peel-offs around the sleigh and the reindeers neck. All the stars reindeer reigns and sentiment are from a silver peel off.

I have layered it onto lemon card and cut the corners with a corner rounder. I have added some pink card candy.

Flippin' Men








I have used a cream base card and added backing paper from my stash. I have cut the centre out with a Nellie Snellen Die and put Acetate in the aperture. The image is from the Flippin' Men Range and I have coloured him with Promarkers. The images on the inside of the card are all from the same range as well as the sentiment on the front. I have cut another rectangle from the Nelllie Snellen range and added a sentiment inside. I have added a silver border peel-off round the outside of the card.

Black, White & Red

I have used a white base card with backing paper from a Debbie Moore CD. The sentiment tag was printed on the PC and cut and layered with a old red sizzix die. I have added a red ribbon from my stash to the tag. I cut the poinsettias from a Marianne Creatable Die. The snowman stamp is an old stamp I had tucked away in my box and it is a Personal Impressions one designed by Dawn Bibby. I stamped him with Momento Tuxedo Black and heat embossed him with black embossing powder. I coloured his hat and scarf with a Promarker 'Poppy' red pen and cut and layered him out with nesties.

Golfing

I have had these shaped cards in my stash for a long time and never had any inspiration on what to do with them until Karen's Doodles challenge for this week is Shaped Cards. I have used 'What a Swing' image from Karens Doodles and coloured him with Promarkers. You can purchase this image here. I have layered him onto a dark blue card to compliment the two tone pearlescent shaped card. I have added some buttons to the top and bottom corners.
