LovePeaceJoy Mouse

 I have a Christmas card to share today using the beautiful LovePeaceJoy Mouse stamp from Mo's Digital Pencil.

While I love to create backgrounds, I decided to use pretty paper instead this time and let the paper influence my Copic colour choices too.

The sentiment is an old one from Stampin Up stamped onto white card and ripped to create a snow mound for her to stand on.

RV 02, 21, 23

R 30

BG 07, 09, 10, 11, 13

Prince Edward Island

 I have a card to share using a beautiful stamp from Mo's Digital Pencil called Prince Edward Island.

I loved reading Anne of Green Gables when I was young and one of my daughters loved it too.  We also loved watching the Netflix series Anne with an E so I just had to get this stamp :)

I coloured Anne with Copics and used a bookmark die to cut her out.

I did a simple search for quotes from the book and used one of them on the card.  There are some really great quotes so I'm sure I will make more :)

Queen of the Kitchen

You may think I've gotten my holidays mixed up for this weeks post but I don't do Valentine's Day and I decided to make a Christmas card instead :)

I love the Queen of The Kitchen stamp from Mo's Digital Pencil and thought it would go wonderfully with this BoBunny Christmas paper I had in my stash.

I am actually making a conscious effort to get more Christmas cards done this year as I never seem to have enough and that means starting earlier.  Plus I love making them so its a win/win :)

I coloured her with Copics to match the paper and used an MFT sentiment stamp with it.

I used dies from Magnolia and CC Designs and a Sizzix embossing folder called Cross stitch.

Copics used -

R 20, 24, 29, 30

B 00, 02

Y 15, 28

Skating Gnome

 I used one of the cute Skating Gnomes from Mo's Digital Pencil to make something a little different this week. I made an interactive slider card so that the gnome can really skate across the ice.

I have had the Surf and Turf die by MFT for years. I really wanted it because I love slider cards but I've never actually used it!  So I got this skating gnome specially to try it out and I had fun with it and love the result :)

For the sentiment I used words from a stamp that I cut out and the "ice" is made with some old letter stickers I had lying around.  

I made the sky using Distress Oxides and coloured the gnome with Copics

Copics used :

B 21, 23, 24, 26, 28

E 000, 13, 21, 35, 55

W 1, 3

Fairy Tuttle

This week I got to use one of the gorgeous new stamps from Mo's Digital Pencil.  

This is Fairy Tuttle, she is absolutely adorable isn't she?!  

I coloured her with copics, and had a lot of fun choosing all my favourite colours for her clothes. I also added a little Wink of Stella to her wings and cut her out.

Then I created the background.  I used my gel press and brayered on some Distress Oxide inks. Then I added water to some of the ink and splashed it on top, then took a print.

After that had dried I used a circle mask to create a moon, sponging Distress Oxide around the edge and then highlighting the edge a little with white gel pen.  

I used Dandelions, Field Grass and Mini Stars by Lavinia Stamps with an old PSX words stamp to create a scene. 

Then I added some ground at the bottom with Distress Oxides and also blended them around the whole panel. I added a little glitter to one of the dandelions too although you can't see that in the photo.

Copics used :

BG 0000, 000,07, 09, 10, 11, 13,15, 49, 72

RV 00, 52, 63

V 01 12, 15, 17

Bird (and Monster)

I had a teenage boy birthday card to make just before Christmas and I used the wonderful Bird (and Monster) stamp from Mo's Digital Pencil.  This went perfectly with the copy of Frankenstein that I bought him :) 

 

He was fun to colour and the background I made was fun too!  I had been given some Brusho Powders for my birthday but hadn't tried them yet and I thought this would be a perfect opportunity to use the grey Brusho. It created a really simple but effective background :)

Thanks for dropping by today :)
