Lee Holland - Christmas Dragon

Hello friends

I hope everyone is well? It would seem my mojo has gone for a walk, I hope it's not a long walk! I have so much to do before Christmas! Yikes.. I said the C word again. Fortunately, I have some cards I can blog that I've already completed. Here is one I have completed and another Christmas card, I'm loving these dragons from Lee Holland....

The photo is really disappointing as the image is a lot lighter in real time! Anyway, I used the following to make this:

6x6 Card base

Lee Holland Digi stamp - Christmas Dragon on Holly leaf - from his Etsy store

coloured with Promarker's on to normal card

Crafter's Companion embossing folder

Spellbinders square die

Sentiment is from another Lee Holland stamp set

Bling from stash

I hope you like it and thank you for taking the time to visit. Have a good week and see you all soon.

It's a Boy!

 Hello everyone.

So a nice long Easter weekend to craft as the weather has taken a turn for the worse! It's been beautiful here in sunny Southend this week. I would like to say a very big thank you for all the recent comments that I have received on my cards, it's so kind of everyone to take the time to visit, it's so appreciated and gives me a boost to keep going. Today I made a baby boy card for a friend who is expecting a 'lockdown' baby! It's so nice for something positive to come from what has been a pretty awful year. Enough of the doom and gloom she says and on to my card. So here it is...

I used the following to make this card:

6x6 card base

Lili of the Valley digi stamp - Clouds which can be found here

Lili of the Valley sentiment digi stamp - Baby greeting which can be found here

Coloured with Promarkers

Papers are 'It's a Boy' from First Edition

Embossalicious Embossing folder - Clouds

Memory box Pippi butterfly die

Oval die is unbranded

Button and sprinkles from stash.

Have a great Easter everyone and I'll be back soonish!

Too Hot for Me!

A quickie!!

Hi peeps, a schedule post from me today as I have such a busy Saturday. So Friday here in Sunny Southend the temperature reached 33C, way too hot for me. I had three fans on and still it was uncomfortable. I know I shouldn't complain, but...  So I spent the afternoon making a quick card and cutting vinyl with my Cricut to put names on bits and bobs. So here is my card...

I used a simply print image from Lili of the Valley which you can find here, these are brilliant for quick cards! The embossing folder is from Crafters Companion and all the dies are unbranded.

Have a great weekend and thank you for taking the time to visit.

Debbie x
