Application Cards

I recently - unsuccessfully - applied for a high profile DT.  I was disappointed not to make the team as I really love their products, but, I was extremely pleased with what I made and the techniques I used to create the cards give I only had a day and half to make them.  I'll let you judge them tho

Dragon's Dream TIO DT Piece - V and a Feather

For this time's theme, I have gone with Valentine, I know it's months away, but that's what I keep saying about Christmas and look how quickly that comes round!!!!

I started by basing the tag with pink pigment ink, I used a Rennie MacIntosh inspired Heart stamp in gold Pigment ink to create a background.  The ATC topper I did some time ago from a stamp from Viva Las Vegas Stamps.  I cut the hearts in Coredinations with a sizzix die and embossing folder in one, sanded back the detail.  I added the feathers between the hearts and the under the ATC.

Foil Play DT piece

This is a card I made for a colleague who was leaving to have a baby.  I started with the Saturated Canary stamp and coloured her in with promarkers.  I then used scalloped Ovals spellbinders to cut her and the matt of blue card.  I then glued the rim of the white card with quickie glue and added the gold foil in a distressed style to make the topper look a bit more aged.  I added some ribbon to co-ordinate to a matt of black card, a bling swirl and some flowers from stash.

The really spooky part - she was wearing a blue top and black skirt when she was presented with this and her gift!!!!!! do, do, do, do!!!
