The Paper Shelter Challenge #663 - Anything Goes with the optional twist of the Wintery Mood Board

Good morning everyone and welcome to my DT post for the new challenge from The Paper Shelter. This fortnight, our challenge is our usual Anything Goes challenge or for double entries into this challenge's winning picks, you could use our Wintery Mood Board to inspire your card or project. 

I love this mood board - it's full of soft colours, snowflakes, glitter and invokes that feeling of cold and warmth at the same time! How will it inspire you?!

For my card, I have used the gorgeous Snowflakes and went with the pale pink pale blue and brown combo that I pulled from several of the images in the mood board.

Good morning everyone and welcome to my DT post for the new challenge from Heart's Quest Fantasy. This month our challenge is an Anything Fantasy Goes, so you can use any image you like as long as it features a fantasy character or theme, so think fairies, mermaids, gnomes, dragons, unicorns and so on. 

For my card, I am still in Christmas card making mode, so used this adorable fairy making her snowman from Sweet November Stamps called Piper's Snowman. I went for a mostly monochromatic colour combo of aqua/teal blues and white and just love how it came out.

I also couldn't remember the last time I did a Something Else on Saturday post, so I thought, what with it being a new year, I would come up with a new name for my regular Saturday posts instead!

Hearts Quest Fantasy Challenge #11 Anythign Fnasty Goes with optional twist of Yetis

Good morning and welcome to my DT post for the new challenge from Hearts Quest Fantasy. This month our challenge is Anything Fantasy Goes with the optional twist of including a yeti or abominable snowman on your card or project.

My card is something I have never done before - it's completely digital. I was really short on time this month and thought I would have time during my half term holiday to get my card done and then just simply ran out of time with all my appointments this week! So I thought I would give a digital card a try and while I think it came out quite cute, I still prefer making cards in real life, with papers, card and some Copic colouring. At least I know there can be a suitable alternative when I don't have the time! 

Recipe:

Stamps: Yeti (Pre-coloured) from Pink Gem Designs

Everything Else: Digital!

Something Else on Saturday #274 Featuring Peppermint Princess Emma from Paper Nest Dolls

Good morning everyone and welcome to this week's Something Else on Saturday post. I am trying so hard to get back into a blogging routine again, but it never quite seems to work out! Work is crazy busy at the minute with a lot more responsibilities this year, so lots of my weekend free time is now spent planning lessons instead of relaxing and crafting! 😞

Anyway this week's card uses the adorable Peppermint Princess Emma from Paper Nest Dolls and I went for a full on red and white combo (except for a touch of green in the sequins). I wasn't sure what frame to use with her and had this idea to do a shaker card, which I just loved! Shakers are so much fun! 

And this is one of the card laying down so you can see the shaker pieces better!

Hearts Quest Fantasy Challenge #12 Anything Goes & Optional Twist of Angels

Good morning everyone and welcome to my DT post for the new challenge from Hearts Quests Fantasy. This month our challenge is our usual anything goes challenge, but the optional twist this time is to use an angel on your card or project.

For my card I used this adorable Heavenly Christmas Carol as she walks out in the snow, singing to herself. I found the perfect sentiment for her as well in one of my many Christmas themed stamp sets. I went for soft greens this time for a change and love how it came out! 

This card is also for

Good morning everyone and welcome to my DT post for the new challenge from the Paper Shelter. Our challenge this week is an easier - all you need to do is add a sentiment to your card or project. Any sentiment will do as long as we can see it!
