The Sound of Silence

Hello Nomad friends.  Does space make you uneasy??  This card looks fab to me in the real but I am not sure my staging is doing it justice.  Fat Cat wasn't sure what message he wanted to share today so I just left him sans sentiment.  

I used a scrap of Scrap and Me Something Else stripy paper for the edge and stamped Lost Coast Designs Fat Cat on another scrap from the same paper set.  I added a little distress marker and gel pen colour and fussy cut the cat.  He's thinking about it isn't he!   It will be snarky, I can see it in his eyes bwahaahahhahaahaaaaa.

Blue and Brown and Motorbikes

Hello Nomad friends.  Is it only me or do you feel it is time to drink hot chocolate????   I made a masculine card today using some pretty papers from Scrap and Me.

 I used two of the pattrened papers from the Something Else collection, partially fussy cutting around the motorbike.  I embossed part of the brown paper with a gemini embossing folder, die cut a tag and added stamping using various Kort og Godt stamps.  A blue star brad and done!!

Time Tag

Hello Nomad friends.  I've had fun making a giant tag this evening.  After midnight is always a fun time to craft.  

I cut the tag using a stamplorations die from patterned paper from a simon says stamp kit.  I cut the marilyn photo and some pink card using Funky Fossil filmstrip die.  I've used some scraps of holographic heart card, some black negative cut leftovers and a white scrap for the tag which I stamped the sentiment on.  I found the perfect brad! and added some pink halfpearls.

Dragon Glass

Hello Nomad friends.  I hope you are having a wonderful day.  The month seems to be whizzing away from me.  Again.  I found this lovely zig zaggy printed card and this wonderful dragon from Sweet November and a card was born.

I cut a piece of the patterned card and added it to a black card base.  I added a die cut star and the dragon, coloured with promarkers and fussy cut.  Then I added the sentiment coin and done.

Messing About with Stencils

Hello Nomad friends.  The day started nice and turned to blah yuk so I retired to the craft room for some colour therapy.  I have a few sizzix layered stencils that I haven't yet tried so I decided today was the day.  

I made a box with stripey patterned card.  I stencilled the Painted Flowers using distress inks on pink marbled paper.  I cut with Gummiapan postage dies and addded a black mat.  The sentiment stamp is from Kort og Godt and translates to enjoy your day.  I split a doily in two and backed each half with some pink patterned paper.  I used mauve and white bakers twine to tie the box.

 

 

 Inside the box is a pack of napkins and four scented tealights.

Crow Fly By

Hello Nomad friends.  Today I am over at the Lost Coast Portal to Creativity with some inspiration for day 23 of our 31 Days of Halloween celebration.  Today I have made a slimline card with a few of my favourite Lost Coast Designs stamps.

I started with a slimline card made from some slightly dotty patterned card.  I stamped MRaven1 with black archival ink and masked it.  I stamped Drips Background using scarlet archival ink and goth shrine with London Fog ink.  I added some smudgy distress ink colour and part of Carmen's Veranda When Witches Go Riding sentiment.  

 

 

Link up your Halloween inspired projects.  Anything related to the season, spooky, fruity, fun, scary or cute.  Real rubber or clear stamping and the theme must be the focus of your project.  A small stamped sentiment in a sea of die cuts or digi images will not qualify to win the prize and you may be deleted or fed to the giant pumpkin!!!!  Bwahahhaaahaha.

Winter Is Coming!!!!

Hello Nomad friends.  Last one for today I promise.  I am currently dreaming of hot chocolate and marshmallows.  Here's a snowman to keep you amused.

Isn't he cutealicious!!  I used a hammered card base for that snowy look.  I added a piece of glossy patterned paper that I cut away at the bottom for that snowy drift look.  Snowman is sizzix dies cut from lots of white scraps and a few other colours.  The sentiment is a flattened bottle cap and says merry christmas in Norwegian, but you knew that didn't you.
