Yellow Submarine

 Hello and welcome to another Cardz 4 Galz challenge

 the theme this time is

 'inspired by the beatles songs'

here is a link to get you started beatles songfacts

I have used 'yellow submarine' song


 I used a PNG file I found on the internet for the outline of the submarine and added the detail using my Cricut machine

This I turned into an easel card and added a simple sentiment

40th Bitrhday Tunnel Card

 Hi crafters

It's the 15th so time for a new Sparkles Monthly challenge

 the theme this month is

 'big Birthdays ending with a 0 or a 5'

here is my take


 I have made a tunnel card this is of course the inside of the card

here is the front


I love to have a plain front where the recepient might think 'oh a plain card this year then' and then opens it !! 🤣

So I made this card using my Cricut machine and my tunnel card template

I added the giant, glittery 40 and cut out 40s and some stars around so the glittery paper middle would shine through

The sentiment on the front is die cut

Cocktails

Hi and welcome to another Cardz 4 Galz Challenge

 this theme is the first that has been chosen by me, I hope you like it

 'cocktails, wine or coffee'

here is my take


 I used my cocktails set of stamps and some new coloured ink to randomly stamp cocktail images on a piece of white card  to look like patterned paper

I then cut it down so some of the images were off the edge and it looks more random

This was mounted onto yellow card and glued to a card blank

The sentiment is die cut

so have a look at Cardz 4 Galz

and make your own card to enter.  Don't forget it must be for a lady and not for a gent

White on White Snowflakes

 It's the 15th so it's time for a new Sparkles Monthly Challenge

 the theme this month is

 'white on white (with 1 other colour for a sentiment if you want)'

quite nice to do but not so good for showing up in photos

here is my take


it is a shaker card

inside the window I stamped and heat embossed various Christmas greetings

the shaker pieces are snowflakes punched from card covered with washi tape

here is a close up
 

the  outside is embossed

Yappy Christmas

 Hello fellow crafters

 I have made another Christmas card with dogs this time


The frame was die cut 

 I used stamps from the 'puppy tree' mama elephant set.  I stamped the two seperate dogs and the top of the 'tree' in the top three boxes and the bottom layer of the 'tree' in the lower rectangle box.  I tried to mask out the dogs I didn't need but it didn't work too well although I think I got away with it (a die cut holly helped and there is still a floating scarf which I coloured in anyway)

The sentiment is from the same set and is heat embossed

The patterned paper was in a set that was a prize from 'crimbo crackers'

Snowmen Gift Tags

 Today is a Cardz 4 Galz day

the theme is

'it's snowman time'

here is my take


I have made gift tags for a change

The snowmen are die cut and finished with nuvo drops

I die cut 4 tag shapes and cut a rectangle from one and embossed with snow

All were assembled and bakers twine bows were added plus a sentiment and I left space for the recipients name to be added

so have a look at Cardz 4 Galz

 make your own card (or gift tag) including snowmen and enter it

see you there
