Flippin' Seasonal Fun at Uniko Day 2, Snowflake Revisit

Good morning, over at Uniko we are continuing our Ink n Flip revisit with a new look at Snowflake.
Here are a couple of ideas I came up with.

Firstly I used a similar technique to the Christmas Star card from yesterday but used a stamp this time.


On a panel of white card, I stamped the BB Falling snow stamp over it with Hero Arts Unicorn White ink, then when completely dry inked lightly over both sides of the stencil with Salty Ocean DI to create the snowflake.
The panel was then trimmed down, added to a top fold A6 card, a strip of holographic card and sentiment complete.

This second card uses the Framed Snowflakes and I repeated the technique.


This time I trimmed away the excess and mounted the stencilled panel onto silver card and then onto a side fold blue card. I found a die cut snowflake in my stash and added it to the center before my sentiment, stamped in black on a strip of white card.

For more fab ideas why not pop along to see what the rest of the team have been up to.





I'll be back tomorrow with a sneak peek at the new release.

A visit from friends

Morning all and thanks for calling around.
Di, Jenny and Chris have gone home after a great time of craft, chat, laughter and some retail therapy!
It was good to have them over.
I was going to take some photos of us crafting but time flew and it was time for them to leave!
Di brought us some goodies to play with and Chris brought some Stampin Up bits and bobs, as did Jenny. Not sure why I didn't get as much done as the others but here are some of the cards we made with a pack of bits put together by Di, Jenny's didn't get finished. She made some others but all the cards will go towards a table top sale in Di's local village to raise funds for the craft group.


We all had a selection of NitWits papers and an image by Nellie Snellen to colour plus other bits and bobs. All turned out differently but great.

This is a close up of mine.




I used the sketch at Sketch n Stash so if I get a wriggle on I should be in time for their latest challenge.


I didn't finish mine until after I took the first photo as I didn't realize I had missed bits off!
I shall also enter the challenge at:-
Christmas at Sweet Stamping - Gifts Galore , well she is giving her biscuits to the squirrel!
Allsorts - Early Christmas makes
OK, thanks for stopping by and see you back soon.

Sparkle, Shimmer and Shine


Evening all.
Was that summer? No need to open all windows tonight, but at least the rain has stopped so Al has gone out to play again!! Hopefully it may be a little better tomorrow and the weekend.
So while he was out I was playing in the craftroom and came up with this.



I had half a mind to this weeks Merry Monday Challenge when I made this.



I know the MB die is called Calm Countryside but it did shout snow scene when I got it out of the packet. I am still playing around with different ways of framing and layering so this was a little bit of invertage, if there is such a word. Really simple construction just a couple of the MB diecuts plus some stacking square frames all overlayed onto some pale blue/ turquoise glitter card then onto a white square base card.

I shall also enter the following challenges:-
Keep it Simple - lots of turquoise

OK, time for my Wimbledon fix, thanks for stopping by.
