Frozen Elegance

 Isn't this a cute sketch from Sketch Frenzy Friday this week?  I thought there was the opportunity for some cute elements so got creative.

I love love love Coastal Cabana, it is such a fresh and clean colour and the DSP in Eastern Elegance has some beautiful patterns using it. This pattern goes beautifully with the matching embossing folder and of course adding some Silver Glimmer Paper added some lift to the card.  Once I made this I immediately thought of the animated movie Frozen!

This is a close up of the little flags I used two of the images in Perfect Pennants, a set in the new Occasions Catalogue, I think they are just the right thing for this card, perfect you might say ;)

Anyone for Tea?

Time for another challenge, this time the Create with Connie and Mary sketch challenge.  

I was flicking through my Afternoon Picnic DSP and saw the sheet with these cute images on it and they seemed just perfect for this challenge.  I did have to alter the size of the card but I think the effect was worth it.  The sentiment is from Happy Day and reminds me of all the sweet moments I have shared with friends over a cuppa.

Beautifully Baroque Starburst

Just a quick little post today to show you a card I made having seen the tutorial by Dawn Olchefske on making Star Burst cards. I changed the dimensions slightly to fit with our metric measurements here in Australia, my rectangles were 10.5cm x 4.5cm cut diagonally to make the bursts.

I was planning on using the Beautifully Baroque embossing folder, but remembered that I hadn't yet ordered it!  I had ordered the stamp of the same name (note you can get both in a bundle for 15% discount), so I used the stamp with my Stamp-A-Ma-Jig in Crushed Curry, on Crushed Curry cardstock.  The sentiment is from Hello, Lovely stamp set.
