Cute Card Thursday 458 - Anything Goes

Wow, another week gone by and very nearly the end of the year. And we have another Challenge for you over at Cute Card Thursday.  And it's another super easy Anything Goes Challenge. So go on and get your Crafty stuff out. 



I made a tag for this challenge. It has a pocket on the front, so I can add a wee something. I used a Krista Smith image from when she designed for Sugar Nellie. This one is a Rubber Stamp called Amelia. I die cut the tag using a Tim Holtz Sizzix die and the gears were again Tim Holtz by Sizzix I think. I cut the tag from white card and then distressed with Distress inks. The cogs were distressed then I went over them with Alchemy Wax from Imagination Crafts. They are kinda shiny, but the photo makes it look worse. In fact, I am really happy with how this tag turned out. I don't usually do Steampunk, but couldn't turn down this Sugar Nellie stamp when it came out. So I had to get some gears and cog dies to go with the flow. But I might just have to give it another go now.

Cute Card Thursday 457 - Anything Goes

New Challenge over at Cute Card Thursday and it's a super easy anything goes Challenge for you all. So if you can manage to find a bit of time for crafting over the Festive Period we'd love to see you over there. I thought I was pretty organised - erm no I guess not. But I'm getting there.
Anyway we are being sponsored by Lemon Shortbread this week.


For my card I have used Winter Fairy from Lemon Shortbread. She is super cute don't you think. The papers are digi from Michele Roo Designs. With a diecut snowflake, a snowflake charm and a bit of ribbon and a Craftwork Cards sentiment this card came together nicely.

Cute Card Thursday 456 - Snowflakes

New Challenge over at Cute Card Thursday with the theme Snowflakes. This week we are sponsored by Di's Digi Stamps.


I'm so running out of time and needed a nice gift tag for SIL's present. So a wee Coffee theme going and gold and black snowflake paper helped me decide on this. The coffee cup is a die from Whimsy - I so love this one, just a nice size. The tag, stitched circle and banners are all dies from MFT. I broke my wee snowflake punch, so had to hunt another one down. I finally found one in a pack of three, but I had to have it (even if I wont use the others).

Cute Card Thursday 455 - Stars/Sparkles

New Challenge started over at Cute Card Thursday and the theme is Stars/Sparkles. We are sponsored this week by All Dressed Up Stamps.



For my card I have used the super cute Happy Christmas Little Star. She turned out totally different to what I had in mind. For a start she was pink in my mind. Oops. Anyway, went with these papers from Michele R Designs. A bit of Kraft card and some die cut Poinsettia's with star centres and she is all done. I have added some sparkly Wink of Stella (but you can't see it on the photo). Coloured with Polychromos Pencils and blended with Sansador using paper stumps.

I have used the Sketch over at Sketch Saturday. Rotated it and used a rectangle instead of the oval.

Cute Card Thursday 454 - Toys or Transport


Oops, totally forgot what day we were on. But - hey, I'm here now. So onto the new Challenge over at Cute Card Thursday. The theme this week is toys or transport. I went with a bit of both using this Lili of the Valley stamp. We are sponsored by Whimsy Stamps. I decided to make a gift bag. The back is a cheap lunch bag which I covered with cardstock.
