Believe in the magic of Christmas

This Anything Goes Challenge at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends, we are sponsored by All Dressed Up. 

I have used an image by All Dressed Up called Santa Post.  The sentiment is also from All Dressed Up, although I think this one may be retired.

I also used some borders from a Kaisercraft paper - a snowflake one for the falling snow and a lacy one for the piles of snow on the ground.  Colouring is with copic markers and Kindy Glitz.

Happy Pumpkin Day

I am a bit late with this post.  I thought I had posted it at the beginning of the month but it managed to stay in draft.  Today was the first day that I have gone back to write another post and saw it still in Drafts.

This month at Incy Wincy Designs, the theme is Autumn and/or More Than One Fold.   I decided to do both an autumn card and a card with more than one fold.  This is a fold that I learned at the Stress Free Cardmakers Summit.

This picture gives a better view of the top fold and the side fold.

I have used some digital papers from PixelScrapper.  The image is from Designed 2 Delight and the sentiment is from Create with TLC.  Colouring is with copic markers.

Mandala

 I am cutting it fine with a few monthly challenge cards this week.  I am glad that I managed to finish this one but still have another card that might not get completed (plus the ones that have already closed that didn't get completed).

The Outlawz Progressive Freebie Challenge - September Image
https://theoutlawzchallenges-freebie.blogspot.com/2024/08/september-2024-progressive-freebie.html

I decided that the image for September would really well for a Gatefold Card.  I coloured the image using Promarkers as they have some nice bright colours and also finer nibs for getting into the smaller parts of this image.  I added gems to the corners of the front and some striped paper on the inside of the card.

Gecko Galz September

 I'm not sure if I will complete all my projects for the September Gecko Galz Challenges.  To save some time, I'm going to put all the ones that I have completed so far into one post.

All digital paper, images and sentiments are from Gecko Galz.

Merry Pigmas

I have used a digital paper from Décosse's Dynamite Doodles. The image is by From The Heart Stamps and the sentiment was typed on the computer.  Colouring is with copic markers. 

I followed a printed tutorial from the Card Maker Success Summit.
