Dasher Christmas card

Here is a pic of one of the cards I have taught recently. I have embossed the Medalion background and dasher  images with silver embossing powder and the colours I have used are Basic Gray and Cherry Cobbler. The high light circle was cut using the Perfect Pennants die cut and the Big Shot.

I won the "wow"

I was priviedged to be able to attend Jacque's first line team meeting in place of Anabel who has recently had a major back operation. She is doing well:)
As is often the case with these sessions, we all made swaps and mine was voted the one with the most "wow".
I managed to take a few photos as my camera faded into the twilight zone so some are ok and some are not so good. I am waititng for Labour weekend specials? to buy another.
Anyway here is my swap card;

I used the bleach technique to take the colour out where the snowmen would be snowy white.
The stamp is from the Holiday Lineup stamp set. I am just loving the white organza ribbon:)

crimped cards

These are some cards done at recent club nights using the crimper. (p 148 main catalogue)
The crimping technique was from this site http://donnawb-copd.blogspot.com/2010/05/bloomin-beautiful-crimping-tutorial.html

I CASEd this idea from one that I found on Dianne Burns blog. diburns.blogspot.com

Some new cards

Gosh, I have been neglecting my blog, sorry. Will try to do better:)

 This one was commissioned by my sister to give to the very nice man who went out of his way to give extra special service when he put together the shelving for her shop. I used the "Totally Tools" stamp set which I embossed in silver and attached to corks cut out with the "Top Note" die and the Big Shot.

This one I made for Anabel's birthday. The top right corner is cut away and folded back behind the square. I was shown this idea by the lovely ladies at Pinesong craft group. Not sure whether it might have looked better upside down?
