BOO!

 












Hello lovelies, hope you are well! Today I am sharing two cute and simple Halloween cards that I have created for this months challenge over at Sparkles monthly challenges  The theme is  'Things that go bump in the night'! 





I was pondering to design something more darker and spookier for Halloween, but I wanted to go with a cute theme this time! Here is how I created my card: 








To start, I took a piece of pre-scored plain black card stock, Next I printed this orange scrapbook paper from eyeinspire . Using black soot distress ink and a Kaiser kraft background clear stamp I stamped all over the orange paper to give it some grunge interest. 









Next, I adhered this lovely cobweb design scrapbook paper. I have also used vintage photo distress ink to distress all edges of paper.










Here I have used a lovely Halloween bingo card which matches these papers perfectly.









I adhered this on to the middle of my card using double sided tape. I love using altered bingo cards in my designs, they give an extra element to work with! 








Finally, I adhered this darling fussy cut ghostie image and printed out some word labels. 






















Here I have created two cards using the same papers. 






















I have also printed out and adhered some more word labels. 


I really hope that I have inspired you to make you own cute Halloween cards and hope that you will enter the challenge!

Victorian cat card






Hello lovelies, hope you are well! Today I am sharing a vintage cat card that I have created for this months challenge over at Let's craft and create.

The theme is 'favourite colour combo'. I hope that you will join in with the challenge! 









To create my card I have used this delightful Victorian cat image from Calico collage fancy dressed cats cut out and collage ephemera book. 

I have used these wonderful dirty old lace papers and the old sheet music is from My porch prints. 








I have also used a vintage receipt and a typewriter letter key. Finally I printed out a word label and adhered it to my card.








I hope that I have inspired you to create your own Victorian theme card. Thank you so much for stopping by the Den, I really appreciate your visit and kind comments!

Hello lovelies, hope you are well! Today I am sharing a lovely vintage Christmas card that I have created for this months challenge over at Sparkles Christmas challenges  The theme is 'Christmas flowers/foliage'.

Please carry on reading to see how I created my card: 








I first took a blank piece of pre-scored kraft card stock and then adhered these beautiful papers from my my porch prnts. I have distressed all edges of the papers with vintage photo distress ink. 

Next, I adhered this wonderful image from the graphics fairy. You can find so many great free images over there to print for personal use. 









Here I have used a vintage music sheet along with a Poinsettia die. I have used vintage photo distress ink on the edges of the Poinsettia to make the flower look aged. 

 















To finish my card,  I have adhered a small piece of washi tape and a word label.


I really hope that I have inspired you to make you own vintage Christmas card and hope that you will enter the challenge!
