HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone..

I hope you all have a great evening/night but PLEASE STAY SAFE..

Me and my family are partying at home with a big group of loved ones but I still wanted to make a quick post to share my project for this week for

Bee Crafty.

Ive used the Backgrounds Border stamp called "Clover" 

as well as an old favorite "Glad I did it" 

I made this card using the stamps, black embossing powder, mica powder, distress inks, a paper ribbon and flat back pearls.
I wanted to make something that was still festive but no longer christmas, hence the choice of colours. The whole card is smothered in mica powder to give it a real shine..

Anyway its PARTY TIME... Have a great and SAFE new year everyone and I will see you all soon again. 

Thank you for popping by and for any comments left behind.

Hello blogger friends..

Happy Christmas eve everyone..

 

As you read this, im sitting with my family celebrating christmas. I come from Denmark and in Denmark, we celebrate christmas on christmas eve. Today we will have our christmas dinner, exchange presents, sing loads of carols as well as eating sweets and treats till we burst.

Never the less, I still want to share a christmas card Ive made for

Bee Crafty

Today I've used the stamps called:

Trees and Winter wonderland

You can find them in the SHOP with all the other amazing stamps

Here is what Ive made:

 

A card made with the stamps, red embossing powder, a star stencil and LOADS of distress inks..
The colours are a bit unusual for a christmas card, but I love yellow and red together and I think it really makes the card stand out.

Anyway, have a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS tomorrow (or today if you like me celebrate today)

Merry christmas everyone!

Hi blog land here I am with my rather Christmassy Bee Crafty blog. I didn't post anything last week as I had a rather crazy brainstorm to decorate my daughters bedroom. She is now settled into her new room for christmas, I have finished work and can now relax a little before the big day.

I have posted 2 cards this week to make up for not posting last week. Bee Crafty have a fantastic range of Yuletide stamps so why not take this opportunity to get ready for next years celebrations. There is 20% off Bee Crafty Stamps until Monday 22nd December so why not take the opportunity to set yourself up for some new year projects.

To make this card I have used:

Yuletide fir tree stamp

Yuletide snowflakes

Yueltide seasons greetings

Backdrop borders grasses

Embossing powder

Salty ocean distress ink

 

 

For this card I used:

Yuletide holly swirl stamp

Seasons greetings stamp

Can I take this opportunity to wish you all a very merry christmas! I hope you've all been good and Santa brings you lots of crafty goodies. I'll be back in the new year with some more Bee Crafty inspiration.

 

Christmas Crafty Hugs,

Hello crafty friends..

Time for another post for

Bee Crafty

Ive been playing with my christmas stamps again for this little card. The one Ive used for today is called "Holly Swirl Tree"
A beautiful and classic stamp. You can find it in the STORE with all the other amazing stamps.

Here is what Ive made for this week:

For this card Ive had a play with my mica powders together with my stamp.

I stamped my tree using versamark and then covered it with mica powders. The colour I chose is a funny one. When the light hits the mica it shines in different colours. This was what inspired me to do the rest of the card.
The rest of the card is a simple matting and layering only using black and white card stock, finished off with LOADS of flat back pearls matching the colours of the mica.

And that is all from me for today.
Thank you for popping by and for any comments left behind.

A bottle of Seasons Greetings

Hi Guys, 

Sorry I am a little late today I have no idea where the time has gone today. 

So today I thought I would share with you a bottle tag that I created using the Yuletide Collection, and my sparkly embossing powder. 

The stamps that I used today are Holly Swirl Tree and Seasons Greetings 

So I stated off with a red card stock and cut it down to 21.cm by 11. cm. 

I scored the top section 5cm, and punched a hole in it that was big enough to get the bottle neck through. 

Next I stamped my image with a clear ink pad, and used "Gold Tinsel" embossing powder, I stamped this on 300gsm stamping card, I cut this down to 9.5 x 9 cm and matted onto a thin red border, which was then matted onto a white card stock that gave a thicker border. 

I repeated the same with the "Seasons Greetings" stamp and matted in the same manner. by top layer is 9.5 cm by 4.5 cm, and again I heat embossed this with the gold tinsel embossing powder. 

To finish the card off I added four pieces of card candi one to each corner and rounded the bottom corners with a corner rounder. 

I hope you like it and I will see you next Monday.

Oh Christmas Tree!

It's Clare here once again for Bee Crafty and I have another christmas themed card for you. I thought that I would try something on craft card this week.

 

For this card I used:

Yueltide christmas tree stamp

Yueltide seasons greetings stamp

Inkables off set dots mask

Dylusions White linen ink

Distress ink

Liquid pearls

Embossing powder

 

 

I started off with my craft card and the Inkables template and dabbed through some white linen dylusions ink with a sponge. After that I stamped the tree and sentiment with watermark ink and heat set with a pearly embossing powder. With festive Berries distress ink I brushed around the edge of the card. After matting and layering I added my favourite little liquid pearls to the tree in red and green to the tree and some random opal white to the outer edge. Finally I added some gems from my stash for a bit of bling.

 

 

Thank you for having a look at my post today.

Christmas Again

Good Morning Everyone, 

Kelly again today and again I have for you another Christmas card, I thought that I would keep with the Christmas theme, considering we have now entered December. 

So I started with a green six by six card blank that I matted with a white layer, then a green layer and the top layer is a white layer that I decorated up, I used the "Holly Swirly Tree" stamp and the "Seasons Greetings" Stamp. 

I used the Holly Swirl Tree and just randomly inked sections up using a clear embossing pad, and embossed using a silver detail embossing powder, I repeated this around the square.

I then stamped the "Seasons Greetings" stamp and embossed using a gold tinsel embossing powder. I added some liquid pearls to the card to finish it off and left it pretty much as that as I wanted the sentiment to be the focus of the card.

I hope you like it and I will see you next week with some more inspiration.

Some more seasonal greetings!

It's Clare again back with some more Bee Crafty seasons greetings. I'm sure I mentioned last week how fond I am of this stamp, it is a lovely large stamp and so versatile.

For this card I used:

Seasons greetings stamp

Yueltide snowflakes

Distress inks

Clear & black embossing powder

Liquid pearls

 

To make this card I stamped using watermark ink and heat embossed using clear powder. I then brushed the card with mowed lawn and crushed olive. Using the same coloured inks I stamped the smallest snowflake. I then punched out some small holes using my punch. Using a die cut I stamped on the seasons greetings in black and heat embossed. To tie the greeting in with the card I again used mowed lawn to edge the shape and stamped the small snowflake with crushed olive and mowed lawn. I mounted the card onto a hidden panel of white card and then onto green and added my favourite little pearly dots and a sprinkle of glitter.

 

 

 

I hope you are not finding your christmas preparations too stressful? It's a busy time of year and I know I am trying hard not to let this busy period weigh me down. Some crafty time for me today I think.

 

Crafty hugs,

Seasons Greetings

Morning Guys, 

How are we all today, well it is Monday again already so that means it is my day to share with you some ideas. 

Today I thought I would use some of the Yuletide Stamps.

For this card I used two stamps, I used Holly Swirl Tree and Seasons Greetings   

I complemented the stamps with the Inkables Chain Link Fencing mask

The card is an A4 blank, which I matted with a red layer and then a white layer, the white layer I used the inkables mask and embossed it using my embossing machine, I only did this for the top of the layer. 

I stamped my "Holly Swirl Tree" stamp using a clear ink pad and embossed it with a gold tinsel embossing powder. I matted this onto a piece of red card to give it extra layer, next I stamped in black ink the sentiment and again matted this onto the red card stock.

I added a ribbon and a bow, placed the "seasons greetings" to the bottom, three card candi and liquid pearls in gold.

This is a close up, of what the embossing powder looks like, I tried to cature the sparkle.

That is it for me for today, I will be back next week with more inspiration.

Seasons greetings!

Hi it's Clare here again with a little bit of Bee Crafty inspiration and like it says on the tin, I've gone a a little seasonal with some of The Yueltide collection stamps. You will will see this greeting pop up quite a bit over the coming weeks. I absolutely love it. It is such a good size and stamps fantastically.

 

For this card I used:

Seasons greetings stamp

Fir tree stamp

Beautanicals ferns stamps

Distress inks

Embossing powder

 

 

To make this card I masked with a circle aperture and a moon so that I could ink in my scene using festive berries distress ink. After that, with my circle mask remaining, I stamped on the ferns using black ink and heat embossed with clear powder. I removed the mask and stamped on the sentiment and the fir tree and once again heat embossed.

 

 

 

That's me for this week. I expect all of you are busy getting ready for that special day so thank you for taking the time to look at my blog. I look forward to hearing your comments.

Crafty Christmassy hugs,

Clare x x x x

Marleen DT - Da Vinci.

Hi guys..

Time for my weekly fix of 

Bee Crafty.

The more I work with the stamps from Bee Crafty, the more I love them.
And the stamp im working with this week, is no exception.

Its called "Science of Beauty" and is from the "Inspired by Da Vinci" range.
the Da Vinci range I think is my favorite of them all and I was VERY excited when this stamp landed at my door. So expect to her this beauty on fure projects as well :-)

Here is what I've made:

For this card I pulled out a packet of paper from my stash to play with and it really inspired the whole card. The text and the gold hearts is on the paper so the background was kind a done.
I stamped the image our on watercolour card and smothered in distress ink.
The gold around the image and the corners on the card is made with versamark and gold embossing powder.
The greeting is an embossing folder, proberly a freebie from a mag. Once embossed I added distress ink and added gold embossing powder over the letters, using a glue pen.

The heart behind the image is cut with a die.

For my second card I decided to go with a vibrant colour.
My image is stamped and smothered with distress ink. Then sprayed with a spray glue and covered in glitter.

Tthe back ground is made with an embossing folder and once again distress ink.
Finished with an OVER sized bow and a sentiment from the "Wordage" series, called "Best wishes/Special thougts".

And that is all from me for today.
Thank you for popping by and for any comments left behind.
