Envelope punch board turtles

These cards were super fast to make .
Score cardstock in half (11 x 4,1/4 inch to start )
cut desired colour for mask 2 inch x 4,1/4 inch.
Punch with EPB at 2,1/8 inch mark ,flip over and repeat .
Make eyes with the circle punches .
use punch board to punch black cardstock and use the pieces that fall out for mouths .
I used dimensionals to mount the eye masks

Tag topper closure card




I was quite pleased with this as it was the first time I had used the tag topper punch for a card   .Item no.(133324.)
You just bend your cardstock (11inch x 41/4 inch )  in under the punch and then punch the tag shape (both ends at once ).Trim off the excess and score at 4 1/4 inch from left side (not the tag bit ).This one is decorated with a sentiment from MDS and the choose happiness stampset .

Aussie christmas

I had a request for an Aussie themed Christmas card for a child ,preferably with a kangaroo. After racking my brain I resorted to MDS and used the kangaroo from C is for colouring.
I mirrored the image to have it face the right way and used the colouring tool in white to "blank out "the parts of the picture I didn`t want. I printed and coloured it (I'm not the best at colouring)
A little sentiment from festival of trees and some stars and sequins  prettied it up. Hope you enjoy,Kim

Curly paper wreath

This Christmas wreath was easily made by cutting 1/2 inch strips of paper and curling with a bone folder. The curls are then pinned onto a Styrofoam wreath . This one is a 7 1/2 inch wreath and used 5 pieces of 8inch  x 12 inch papers

MDS Christmas cards


I really love this picture of santa , but the stamp is no longer available . Luckily i found it was in digital form on MDS(my digital studio) , so i brought it , downloaded it to MDS and printed it in soft seude onto vanilla cardstock . 
MDS is great for that stamp that you dont have in your stash , or for a one off card that you dont want to go to the expense of buying a stamp you might not use much . It is available for free for 30 days, after that decide if you want it or not .  The paid version is a one off $24.95 and you can purchase additional images if you want ( but it comes with heaps already ) 
 Anyway , i hope you like the card i came up with , cheers !
