Tartan Christmas

Hiya folks, sorry for my absence the past couple of weeks, first of all had my youngest dislocating his knee again and had a few hospital appointments for him, then that rolled on to the school October break, so now back to ''normal'' ... Think I need a holiday to get over all the toing and froing!! Lol...So on to my latest sample, I have made this tartan themed Christmas card using '' Poinsettia project sheet'' by Delightful Digi's that you will love!! Here is my completed card...

My Project 
Products Used 
Delightful Digi's - Poinsettia Project sheet
Crafter's Companion - Watercolour card for image
LuminArte H2O's - Olive vine, Golden jade, Moss green, Poppy red, Cinnamon stick and Sunflower
Liquid Pearls - Ruby red
Creative Expressions - Sue Wilson Holly Sprays dies
X-Cut - Merry Christmas dies
Docrafts Papermania - Pocket Full of Posies backing paper and Forever Friends Gold adhesive domes
Pinflair - Ice Diamond, Buff-It ( Antique Silver and Brass)
Pearls, gem and gold card from my stash

First of all I chose the gorgeous red tartan paper, cut to size then buffed the edges with Pinflair Buff-it's and placed on to 7x7 card blank. I printed off the 'Poinsettia project sheet'' cut out, then coloured using the various Twinkling H2O's, that I took out of retirement from being stuck in a box for ages!!!. Once dry I layered them together, added the Ice Diamond and then gold domes. I placed the finished poinsettias onto the card adding die cut 'Holly Sprays', finishing off with liquid pearl berries added to holly sprays, pearls and gem in corners and die cut sentiment!!

Happy New Year ...

Hiya Folks, Hope you all had a fab weekend, I had a lovely couple of days chilling, then caught up with the sssshhhh ...HW... though now it looks as if I never did it...lol ... Anyways, I'm here this morning with my Wednesday showcase with the last image from the 'Thistle Collection' by Delightful Digi's...and here is what I created... a 'New Year' card
My Project 
Products Used 
Delightful Digi's - Thistle corner image
Heritage - Auld Lang Syne rubber stamp 
Spellbinders - Labels seventeen die
Promarkers - Lime zest, Pear green, Marsh green, Lavender, Lilac and Amethyst
Crafty Notions - Sunshine gilding flakes
Cosmic Shimmer - Frosted Lavender Twinkles
Ribbon, gems and backing paper from my stash

Using word document, I created the positions of the thistle image, as shown and printed on to paper. Coloured using Promarkers then adding gilding flakes. I printed out the purple tartan backing paper, which should look familiar, as it is my blog background!! Thought it was very apt for this and matches in well. I stamped out the 'Auld Lang Syne' then die cut it and added the glitter glue round the edge. To finish off I added the glitter ribbon and gems....
