Some Odd Girl - Birthday Card "You deserve the ROYAL Treatment"

Hi guys! Sorry for the delays in posting. I got crafty the other night, did something I rarely do, and since then, this card has been on my desk.... 

So, for this card, my first stop was the layer with misting. I got some sequin scrap, and sprayed bronze perfect pearls through it, giving it the bubble look. I set it aside to dry, and coloured up "Royal" from Some Odd Girl, with my spectrum Noir Markers. I then layered up some paper from Teresa Collins (this is the boys range!) and doodled around the edges, I added the perfect pearls piece, which I stamped with the sentiment, and added it. Royal has been attached with dimensional adhesive, and I added a trio of rhinestones.

Here's the close up

I've also finally got my markers into a home, that they have been needing! I had them in a box, and their original packaging, yet the box was falling apart and the original packaging was looking wrong... So, I ducked in to Typo yesterday, and grabbed some of their Milk Crates. I was originally only going to get one, as they are usually about $25, but they were on sale for $10 each, so I grabbed the matching pair they had! Look how great they look, filled with my markers!

Stampin' Up! Snow Swirled and I create an Elegant Christmas Card

Hi guys, I'm back again with a Christmas Card to show you :)

This is a Basic Grey card base which has been layered with Island Indigo and piece of foil patterned paper from KaiserCraft. I then stamped the tree image from Snow Swirled on to a piece of white card in Island Indigo, and popped some rhinestones on top. The ribbon is actually Stampin' Up!'s Very Vanilla Seam Binding which I coloured using a little bit of silver Smooch Spritz. The sentiment is from the retired hostess set, The Best is Yet to Be. 

I am entering this into two challenges, the first is the Freshly Made Sketches challenge. I have to be honest, I don't quite understand what they mean by clean cards, but no one has said anything about my cards not fitting the bill, so I'll continue to enter... If someone could clarify, that'd be awesome :) The second challenge I'm entering this into is the Moxie Fab Tuesday Trigger, I used the colours as inspiration, as well as the damask pattern on the dress... 

Well, that's all from me... Now, it's bed time...

Good night, and Happy Stamping!
