My 'Inspiration Scribbler' Card for Scribbles Designs

   Today, I am sharing my 'Inspiration Scribbler' project, made for the

monthly Scribbler's showcase of Scribbles Designs Challenge Blog

The theme this month is 'The Most TREEmendous Time of Year’ where
we would like to see you use one or more trees on your project.

Sharing my design team card...

The details of the current challenge can be found HERE

The items I have used are:

Scribbles Designs - #646 TooMooses Tree

Lawn Fawn - Stitched Rectangle frames

Leanne Creatief Embossing Folder - Christmas Branches

Promarkers

I started by printing the Christmas tree onto white card and coloured the
 image with Promarkers. I then added Glamour dust to the image to
give some sparkle.

Next, I die-cut the frame in green card and black fun foam and glued
them together. I glued the frame over the image and trimmed.

Lastly, I added the coloured gems to the tree and the peel-off sentiment.

A Crocheted Throw/Blanket for my Great Niece

 Today, I am sharing a crocheted throw blanket I made for one of my great nieces. 

I used the lovely textured Sedge stitch which I found HERE on 
the 'Blossom Crochet' YouTube channel.

Rebekah’s tutorials are really easy to follow and she has lots of different

 crochet stitches to share.

I started by deciding how wide I wanted the throw to be. 

I chained 141 stitches, and crocheted rows of the same stitch until I 

reached the desired length.

I finished by crocheting a border of four rows of half trebles.

I purchased the yarn online from The Wool Box

using eight 100g balls of Stylecraft Special DK in the colour ‘Lavender’

Birthday Card for my Great Niece

Today, I am sharing the birthday card I made for my youngest great niece 

who celebrated her 1st birthday at the beginning of the month.

Next, I embossed a piece of white card with the bow frame folder.

I then mat and layered it onto pink card and glued it directly onto the card base.

Lastly I added her name, the number, sentiment and a pink

gem on the bow.

Couture Creations A4 Embossing folder - Swiss dots

Anniversary Card

A clean and simple anniversary card to share today, which I made recently
for friends and for my nephew and wife.

The embossing folder I've used is one of the first ones I purchased

many years ago but have not used for a long while.

After embossing a panel of white card, I matted it onto some pink card 

using 3D foam, and glued the cut-out heart directly onto the pink card.

Lastly, I added some diamanté gems and the peel-off sentiment onto 

the punched card.

The products I have used are:

DoCraft XCut - Aperture Dies Cutting Die Set - Amore

Woodware punch - Scalloped Oval
