CREATIVE CRAFT COTTAGE #50

CHALLENGE #50

 - Anything Goes

Sponsor for this challenge is THE CUTTING CAFE

I made 2 step cards for this challenge...I couldnt decide which I preferred lol.
This is the first time I have made a step card.

So here are my cards....

 The first card I cut out the base using a pretty paper from a pad 'The Cricket on the Hearth'

Its a gorgeous paper design from Galeria Papieru which I purchased from SCRAP & CRAFT

The toppers were another pretty paper in my stash but this time from LIVE & LOVE CRAFTS
These are two of my favourite places for purchasing additions to my stash.
The poinsettias, holly and gold twine were from my stash also.

This base for the second card was also cut out from the same paper pad as the first.
I used a fabric poinsettia and chipboard bell from LIVE & LOVE CRAFTS
The 'Merry Xmas' sentiment, tag and First Day of Christmas border are from Graphics45 Xmas Carol & 12 Days of Xmas paper pads. I love G45 papers.
The red twine is from my stash.

I hope you like what I did and I hope you will come and join in the fun with us.

Why dont you stop by the other designers blogs and see what they did too.

DRAGONS LAIR FAN GROUP CHALLENGE

Today Im sharing my card for DRAGONS LAIR FANS GROUP challenge.

The challenge was to make anything using a verse stamp.....

This is what I came up with....

I layered 4 different card designs from my stash...

I put the verse onto a piece of white card and layered it onto plain red card. I added some silver peel off borders around the edge of the verse card and put some holly in the bottom corner.

Then I added a vinatge Santa picture from my stash, cut out a half Xmas tree from the Couture Stylish Xmas Collection from Create & Craft.

Lastly I added a fabric poinsettia from Petaloo.
