Wrapped in Joy card - Couture Creations



Hello there everyone, 
Is it my turn again today 
Today a have created a Merry Christmas card, 
using the new Christmas range of Embossing folders
Wrapped in Joy C0723598 Joyful Wishes.




Firstly I cut a piece of Kraft cardstock and
placed it inside the embossing folder.
I then gently rubbed burgundy ink over the raised words
with a Couture Creations Sponge Daubers.





Matting on to some red cardstock and finally on some white cardstock.
I then added some christmas stickers, and also 
added some Red Couture Creations Gemstones to the centre of  the flowers.

Couture Creations - Butterfly Notes - 3 in 1 sets




Hello there everyone, 

Is it my turn again today 
at Couture Creations . 
Today I have a set of cards made from the
new 3 in 1 sets the called Dream Boat - Butterfly Notes.
In these 3 in 1 sets - you have an embossing folder, stamp set and diecuts of some of
the images on the stamp.





Firstly I stamped on cardstock with Vintage photo inkpad and the
clear stamps from the 3 in 1 set. Then I coloured the butterfly with
copic pens.
Then emboss the stamped cardstock with the embossing folder



I cut out some of the flowers with the diecut included in this
3 in 1 set and placed them on the card with Double side foam tape.



Here I also created a little note card
this would be lovely as a placecard on a table.

On this Day - Bride to Be

Hello everyone, hope all is well with you :)
Today I have a project which
was inspired by the wonderful Artist
Julie Nutting. She is famous for her
pretty paper dolls. I do love her books and all her projects she creates are just amazing, 
so she was my inspiration behind this 
Ornate Frame.
These dolls are used in all mix media projects.
I created one a little while back with 
the papers from Kaisercraft,
"On this Day" and today I am sharing it with you all.


Close up of Ornate Framed Bride.





The background is created with texture paste, stamping and inking.




As you can see it is a bride, in totally 
Julie Nutting style,
it's not a stamped image which are around
at the moment. I hand drew the figure of the
lady and top of her dress on to some paper, then cut it out. I then teared strips of paper to create her wedding dress. 
 Adding a few touches
of blooms, texture paste, paper butterflies,
stamping, ribbons, and of course, a little bit of glitter.


That's all for today.
thanks for looking
Take care, Cheers Adriana  XX
