Tilda and Her Christmas Puppy

Tilda loves her new Christmas puppy! I made a 5x7 Red card for the christmasblogchallenge Christmas Presents and the magnoliadownunderchallenges Your Favorite Things (Puppies and Presents) . I used a Christmas tree print that I painted
with extreme glitter paint. I also painted the ribbons on the presents. I colored Tilda with watercolor paints and Copics. I added extreme paint as well. I popped her up on the presents with dimentionals. I used gold peeloffs on a sticker label and placed the sticker on red cardstock. I added a small red rhinestone to the hole in the tag and then popped it up with dimentionals.

Tilda and Her Naughty Kitty

Bad Kitty getting into the Christmas candy canes! I made this 5x7 card
from red cardstock for the TotallyTilda Challenge Tilda with her cat or dog. I added a background print and added some
red flowers that I cut out from another print to the "walls". I painted them with glitter paint and
used stickles on the flower centers. I also added glitter paint to the dots on the background print.
I cut out the Christmas plant from another print and added glitter paint and glued it down. I painted
Tilda and her cat with water color pencils then added some sparkle with glitter paints. I popped her up with dimentionals. I used gold peel offs for the Merry Christmas greeting.

Girl Caroling in the Snow


Love this Joanna Sheen image of a little girl caroling! I decided to
make 3 green 5x7cards and enter them in the thecraftypad challenge Holes. I used metallic gold cardstock for the base
and mounted my images and sentiments on green card. I added extreme glitter paint
to one image.

I used 3 different edge punches to make holes on some green cardstock strips
and added a gold strip to each and used Holly stickles to make dots.
I popped up the images and sentiments with dimentionals.


I added a strip of gold peeloffs (with different designs and holes) to each card!



Christmas and Snowflakes

I made this card for the bah-humbug challenge Snowflakes . I used a digi image Tasty Flakes. I colored her with copics and painted over her with extreme glitter paint. I used stickles to add texture to the snow and to pop the snowflakes. I made a 5x7 card in purple and added
2 different snowflake prints as toppers. I seperated the prints with a strip of purple. One print had Merry Christmas on it already. I added some purple rhinestones to the strip and then popped up my image with dimentionals.
I added 3 flowers with rhinestone centers.

A Lady Some Lace Some Rhinestones and a Dog


I started with this beautiful image of a lady and her dog for this collection of three 5x7 cards.
I made a dark brown card I added a rose print topper to one and beige toppers to the others.
I left one image plain and added extreme glitter paint in gold to one, and hologram to another. I made 3 different "lace" strips in metalic gold with punches. I added a plain strip same color as the topper card and put a strip of sticky backed pink rhinestones on one, gold on another and pearls on the last.


I placed the images and sentiments on gold cardstock and popped them up with dimentionals.
My favorite is the rose one.


I have entered these in the following challenges:

Tasty Flakes and her little dog too!


I finally tried the piecing that I have seen others doing. So fun!! I used the Tasty Flakes image and 2 cute prints for the outfits. I flocked the gloves, hat edge and hat tassel. I cut out the image and added their outfits. I made two 5x7 cards and added a metallic white backing then some gold metalic card on top of that. I cut some "snow" out of more white metallic paper. I used the gold and white metallic card to back the greetings as well.



I found some dog stickers and put them on card and cut them out. Popped up the girls, dogs and greeting with dimentionals then added stickle dots for the snowflakes and snow on ground. Those flakes really do look tasty!! Lots of glitz hope you can see it!
