Dessert Tales

Hello Nomad friends.  I've been juggling ice creams and finally stumbled over the right die/colour combo for some cool summer fun.

I used Poppystamps Art Deco Layers and Grand Whittle Ice Cream Cone.

Dog In An Art Deco Box

Hello Nomad friends.  There are a few challenges featuring window/apertures and it's actually quite fun.  Tonight I have a dog with an art deco frame.

I used Poppystamps Geometric Deco Plate craft die for the frame and Whittle Cutie Dog die for the dog.  I cut the centre out of the card and paper pieced the frame which gave it back a bit of strength.

The card opens to reveal the dog sleeping on a mat, which is actually a pocket for a gift card, or some tea bags, or a tag or message.  Whatever you want really.

Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz

Aries Rising

Hello Nomad friends.  I like astrology.  Not so much the reading of the horoscope but the whole characters and traits and symbolism.  It's Aries time at the moment and I've made a birthday card for the ram in our lives with lots of spring greens.

I used Funky Fossil Steampunk Farmyard ram and Art Deco die cut frame.  I coloured the ram with promarkers and metallic sharpies and fussy cut.  I stamped the frame with the star stamp from FF Astro and the Space Whale and fussy cut the planet and stamped the star burst from Astro Says set.  The panel in the top was stamped with a bit from Aall&Create bighorn stamp and the Happy Birthday is Hero Arts.  I also slipped in a couple of aries symbols.

Paw Prints

Hello Nomad friends.  Sharing a little sparkle this evening inspired by the Poppystamp challenge.

I wanted to try out this unused Poppystamp Arched Deco Plate.  Magnificent die.  Note to self: add adhesive backing before cutting!   All that detail was a little tricky to glue after the fact, but I managed, onto a lovely cream glitter card panel.  I die cut Whittle Cutie Dog, also unused!!, from kraft card and gave him a little bit of colour on his nose.  I added a small scrap of thick card behind his ear to make it stand out a bit.  Then I went hunting for a sentiment and found this beautiful one from Aall&Create, which is also new from the A4 dog stamp set!!  Gotta love a big stamp and using NBUS!
