November page

Morning xx
As it's my turn on the Bee Crafty blog I am sharing the November page from a Calendar I made for a friend.
I used the beautiful Bird on a Branch and
Large Branch and Tree set

Also used:
Maple easy frame 
Distress Oxides
Black Versafine

To begin my page I worked out where my Tree was going to go, then I used my easy frame stencil to create the effect of the leaves on the tree. I blended Distress Oxides through them, masking each one off, using the innie.

I stamped the Tree over the top of the inked leaves, in Black Onyx Versafine.

The Bird in the Branch was also stamped,  slightly off the page, in the Black Versafine.

To complete I stamped the sentiment in the same Distress Oxides,  as the leaves.

I love making gifts for friends and I hope you enjoyed todays make.

Dreams...

Hello everyone xx

I'm over on the Buzzy Goings On At Bee Crafty Blog today with a card I made using the gorgeous Butterflies, Bird on a Branch and Ground Elder stamps
As the summer holidays are now at an end this will be my last Sunday DT blog post..I'm back to my once a week post on Thursdays xx

Also used
Every Hour is a Dream stamp
Flock of Birds
Sparkle pens
Versafine
White gel pen

I cut out a circle aperture on black card, using one of my nesting dies, and set this to one side

I then cut out a circle slightly bigger than the aperture and used Sparkle pens to create a background

The Ground Elder was stamped in black onyx versafine in first and second generation, to create depth

The Bird on a Branch and Flock of Birds was also stamped in the Versafine

I adhered circle background behind the aperture then adhered this to the card blank

The sentiment was stamped in the Versafine, matted onto black card and adhered with foam pads

A drew a white wiggly frame around the black card, to complete this sample

I hope you have enjoyed today's make and I'll be back again soon with another Bee Crafty make
