Craft Heaven DT - You Are Invited

Good afternoon!  This week on the Craft Heaven blog we're showcasing stamps from the You Are Invited collection and Celebration papers from Maja Design.

I have used the Happy New Year text stamp.  I have stamped it onto vellum and embossed it with a mixture of copper and gold embossing powders.

I have also used the Big Clock stamp and dies from the Tilda in Wonderland collection and embossed the hands in the same way.

 I have used the Invitation die from the You Are Invited Collection for the base of the card.  As it wasn't quite wide enough to support the clock image I have cut it out twice and glued it together.  The leaf from the invitation set has also been embossed.

I hope you like it and thanks for looking! x

Whiff of Joy DT - another preview!!

Another preview of the stunning new Whiff of Joy images to be released on the 1st!!! My card today shows the images for their intended purpose of a New Year's card!! I've masked them all together for a party!!!!

The papers are from MME's Christmas glitter stack and I've used the Martha Stewart star border along the bottom edge of the paper.

hehehe!! I just love these all masked together, they look great don't they!?!? Looks like they're having a fabulous New Year celebration! I've coloured them all with copics and added a touch of stickles to parts of the accessories on the ladies! I've also added glossy accents to the champagne glass.

I used a Tim Holtz alphabet die to create the 2011 and the circular "eat, drink and be merry" stamp is from the new Whiff of Joy sentiments kit.

I added the punched out stars from the border around the image along with some sparkley plastic flowers, a Hero Arts flower and swirls cut with the romantic swirls die from Whiff of Joy.

Hope you like it! Not long now before you can grab some of these gorgeous images and sentiments for yourself! Thanks for looking! x

Whiff of Joy DT - A fabulous preview!!

WOW!!!!!!!!!! That's what I thought when my DT package arrived from Whiff of Joy a couple of weeks ago!!!! I have the most amazing set of images to show you - a new style for Whiff of Joy by the amazing Alison Acton. They are on a New Year celebration theme but as I will show they are sooooo versatile which is great!!! I've used Katharina's sketch that she had on her blog for the guest designer call which ended yesterday.

The papers are from the new Magnolia Christmas papers and I've distressed the edges. I have cut the holly leaves with a sizzix die and the new Whiff of Joy die (smaller leaves) and the super gorgeous gem stone is from The Hobby House. The beads are from my stash.

Here's a close up of the image - isn't he stunning!?!?! and great for male birthday cards and all sorts of other occasions too! You can just about see I have added some glossy accents to the glass for a realistic look.

The sentiment is also to be released in December from Whiff of Joy - another WOW! this is from a set of 9 drink themed circular sentiments that come ready stored in a CD case!!! I've added glossy accents to the drinks glass here too but it isn't showing on the photo.

Hope you've enjoyed my first preview of these cuties!! I have more to show you tomorrow. They will be released on 1st December - perfect to put on your Christmas list!! Thanks for looking! x
