Christmas is Coming ...

Supplies:  pp, chipboard accents, layered chipboard - 

Blitzen Collection by Bo Bunny, 

Merry die and sentiment - PTI, fired brick 

distress ink, machine stitching, 6x6 card blank, white gel 

pen and roller adhesive.

This week's challenge on Paperplay is "Christmas is Coming" 

and we are very kindly sponsored by Simon Says Stamp.

I added depth by layering chipboard accents on top of the patterned paper.  I opened my new dies from Papertrey Ink and ran some white cardstock through my Big Shot.  I adhered to the pp with machine stitching and stamped the remainder of the sentiment with fired brick distress ink. 

You will notice my machine stitching is loose - have been using my sewing machine for a non paper project and have to realign my tension! Takes a few days for the machine to catch up!

Paperplay - "Up in the Air"

This week I got to set the challenge on Paperplay and it is "Up in the Air"... this can be anything.... planes, hot air balloons, fairies, bugs that fly! the list goes on and on.  I just thought that it was a real "summery" challenge and thankfully the warm weather has finally arrived here in Ireland over the past number of days.

This week's Challenge is very kindly sponsored by Elisa from Mami Doodles.  As some of you will know I am on the DT for Mami Doodles and get to play with Elisa's new images each week - which I just love.  On this card I used the love birds from her recent kit here called Love Tree.  These birds are an extra image when you buy the "Love Tree" digi - and they only cost €0.99 - seriously!  Check it out.

Supplies:  Image - Love Tree by Mami Doodles, pp by Bo Bunny, Stazon ink, Sentiment stamp by Papermania, 

handmade fimo button made by me!, crochet thread, deep red cardstock.

I left the love birds uncoloured and just chose to colour the banner instead.  Thanks so much for peeking and we would love if you would like to play along with us on Paperplay this week.
