Craft Roulette # 219

 Back again for my 14th submission for the Craft Roulette.  

Interesting parameters.  As soon as I saw Folded Corner, I knew I wanted to do a Corner Flip Fold card. 

Project: Anniversary - who doesn't love getting flowers for an anniversary!

Colours: Salad -green lettuce, red tomato, black olives, blueberries, white dressing and brown croutons.

Element - New - first time this stamp is being used. Got it last week.

Random - Folded corner - my card is a Corner Flip fold card.

My Teddy Bouquet stamp is from Penny Black. I got it last week and have been waiting for the ideal time to use him. I watercoloured the image with scribbled Zig Markers and fussy cut it out. It was layered onto the red panel and some white Nuvo Drops finished it off.

As it was Ted's first outing, I'm adding this to Darnell's NBUS Challenge. And to the Penny Black Saturday Challenge Anything Goes.

A bit of Christmas - 4 Christmas cards

 Hi there.   Over the last few days I've made some Christmas cards for a few challenges and some just for fun.  

First up is a  card I made for Let's Squash It challenge.  The challenge is Not Paper, Not Card.

I took a piece of vellum and used a Christmas word folder.  I wrapped it around some dark red card stock.  I used a lighter red card and some dark green card together with a Hero Arts Poinsettia stamp and matching die cut to make my flower.  I layered the red panel onto some dark green then onto my white card, 

Second one was for the challenge at Christmas Kickstart.  Jo and Gail provided a beautiful photo inspiration. 

I took my inspiration from the brightly coloured tree.  

My tree came from a magazine freebie stamp set.  I took some patterned paper to add to my mini slimline and stamped the tree.  Then I took some Nuvo drops and 3D Liquid pearls and added lots of blobs and dots.  I gold embossed the sentiment from the stamp set. 

My next two cards were just for fun.

Playing with my setncil again.  This time I blended my desert scene and stamped the Bethlehem stamp (from a NZ company Montarga Stamps) - It went a bit wonky but I was happy with the results.  Add the sentiment along the bottom.  I used pencils to colour in the rest of the stencil and added Wink of Stella all over.  

And finally using a fun fold I used recently. 

I made the cuts on my card and then added my patterned papers.  I used three different sheets of paper. Two for the backgrounds and the other one to cut out Father Christmas.  I then used a die to cut out the big Christmas and stamped the little Merry. 

thanks for getting to here... I know it's a big post.   

Things here in NZ have taken a turn for the worst.  We've got a case of Covid in the community so the whole country has gone into Level 4 lockdown.  Here in Auckland and in the Coromadal Peninsula,  it's for 7 days - rest of the country it's for 3 days.   The case has no links to the border or managed isolation so we are just waiting to see if there are more.  So working from home for the next week.  

Take care out there people.
