Christmas Pony
This week at Creative Knockouts, is for Snow Much Fun, using this image christmas pony present from Hetty Clare
I printed two images
off coloured them with copics then I fussy cut one of them, as the scan n cut
would not pick them up, I adhered the image to red card then onto a pre-cut card
with dots, I then laid the horse flat and the Santa with foam dots I added some
ribbon and put a christmas tree on it I
also put dewdrop water droplets on to represent the snow

Purple tree
For this challenge at Creative knockouts is for lots of layers and we had a image from leannsworld and I am using presents
This is for the youngest granddaughter Indi purple is her favourite colour so that's what colour I have gone for There is two Backing Papers one is dots the other flowers they are adhered to purple card with two rows of lace and all adhered to white base card The small white card is also on purple card then the tree coloured with copics the merry christmas I downloaded and printed off twelve of them ,the rest to be used at some stage, they were coloured with copics and a sparkly gel pen was used for the stars I put double sided tape on the top and bottom of one that was not coloured then stuck the coloured one on top I then fussy cut them out made it so much easier to stick together and stick to the card there is a little pocket inside the card where I will put some money intoI can imagine Indi telling me that christmas trees are not purple but here in NZ we have a summer christmas so I like to do some christmas cards non traditional

Hubbies Birthday
Robin my Husband had a birthday the other day, this image I have had a while but until now had never used The three youngest grandsons thought it was hilarious and just like pop, mind you they can be just as bad, and I have been known to call him an old fart occasionally
I have not put a backing paper on the card I just wanted the image and die cut to stand out (and I was running out of time to get it finished) The sentiment is one of my new dies The image and small sentiment was printed straight onto the card and has been coloured with copicsThursday 19 October 2023
Here is my DT card for creative knockouts uising a digital stamp from Mirtillamente Digital Stamps and I have chosen this image from mirtillamente craftshop The callenge for this 2 weeks is anything goes
Here in NZ we are heading into spring so that is why I have chosen this image
The card group I am in have a monthly card swap and a theme was for a trellis card I did a crossover one and want ed to do one this way thought So I folded the card and cut off the front and used the piece I cut off for the trellis I embossed the card with the woodgrain folder I then swiped them with a distressed ink pad Rusty Hinge and cut them into the strips I needed Not that it is noticeable I have built up the I cut and pasted the image six times then fussy cut them I coloured the image with copics Stamped the plane and heart on the sky did the sentiment on the computerI adhered the rest of the backing paper to the inside of the card and you can see the flowers through the trellis
