Black Cat

As mentioned in my previous post our first challenge for World Cardmaking day was to make a black and white card - I made two in the end!

This is the first one:

I've used a few different products which I will list below, the black cat on the windowsill looks better in real life, I'm not a cat fan but think this is rather a nice addition to the set.

Items used:

Brick Wall embossing folder

Happy Scenes stamp set

Hearth and Home Thinlit dies

Festive Fireside Framelit dies

Neutrals sequins

Archival Basic Black ink

Window sheets

It was great to see what everyone else made too - best I save my other card for next time!

Christmas window

Time for another Christmas teaser!

This card is one that was shown at the American Convention.

I think it's rather nice and uses 2 new sets that I think will be really popular.

The brick embossing folder is in the main catalogue and I've used it as a backdrop to the new goodies.

The trees behind the window are from Happy Scenes which you can buy in a bundle with the fabulous window thinlit.  I have used the Perpetual Calendar set for the snowflakes but there are some in this set.

The sentiment and all the other stamps come from Festive Fireplace which you may be able to tell features some stamps not used on this card!  And this set has matching framelits - oh dear.

Plenty of things to play with and keep me busy while you all save your pennies!
