First I stamped on the Woodware Mixed Media card, it is a nice large stamp.
then I pressed Crafter’s ink pads in Sweet Pea, Blue Berry. and Aruba oon to my hot stuff mat. I used a water brush to pick up the ink and coloured all over with the various colours.
On Woodware Witterings this week we are saying thank you, yes it is time to start giving thanks for all those lovely presents that you have waiting under the tree.
I have used one of Jane Gill’s popular Clear Magic Bubble Bloom stamps this one is called Lilly and is from the July 2016 release.
First I stamped and embossed in silver, and then coloured the petals with Koi Brush Pens, place my foam pads where I planned to put the Card Candi and then started adding the Mark Richards 5mm Pearls.
I realised that I didn’t like the blue of the leaves, so I added another colour on top, you can see the aqua colour on its own too. I rather like the 2 tone effect on the leaves.
The papers are Time Flies too, I hope that you can see that I have sprayed the background paper with the blue colour from the Rangers Dylusions Mica Sprays, it is very subtile but lovely, of course it shows up more on dark papers.
I have embossed in silver around all of the layers.
I made a mistake when I was putting the card together and had trouble added the ribbon, it should have been added before I put the layers together!
I stamped and embossed the greeting from the same stamp set on the Time Flies paper, and used the Tag Top punch.
Thanks for visiting and don’t forget to check out what the rest of the team come up with this week on Woodware Witterings
Here I have another quick card for you, this time very plain blue and silver
I love this Clear Magic stamp designed by Jane Snowflake Flower so quick to use, not that it has to be, it could be a much more time-consuming design of card.
I stamped it on the Mid Blue Recycled Card and trimmed it down. I made it into a small card 12cm square.
The greeting comes with the flower, I have stamped it on the same card and then coloured around the edges with the Purple Crafters Ink. I just run the card gently through the ink pad. It is enough to give the illusion of another layer and very quick!
I small piece of ribbon under the greeting and around the panel finished the card off.
Thanks for visiting, don’t forget to check out Woodware Witterings for more inspiration see you soon!
I ripped the paper, the edges were water coloured too.
The greeting comes from the Stampendous Perfectly Clear set ‘Tis the Season a great set of Christmas words.
I used the Woodware paper scruffer around the edges of the stamped image and then rubbed it along the Blueberry Pad. I bled the ink out with my water brush.
I taped the organza ribbon on the back of the card, and tied it off at the end. I have used the Water Colour card to mount on to
definitely a very quick card, I hope that you like it!

Sometime these are my favourite cards, when you have bits lying about because you have not tidied up before starting again, or is that just me?
When I was doing the post for Mens Christmas cards I had the Graffiti Christmas printed and just lying there. When I cut my Dreamweaver Nested Stockings for my Sketch post I had some extra stockings cut!
I just added a row of brads to hang my stockings and I rather like this card too.
I have added holly leaves to this one the leaves come from a very very old stamp set from the Franocise Collection Wired For Christmas.
This I think is my favourite with the none traditional feel of the colour it is fun and I do live those mini light bulbs from Woodware.
This on is just a funny shape, and I had not used my Tag Top Punch for a least a week!
We are not big on fancy chocolates in our house but we do like an After Eight Mint, or two, so I have made this box for them to sit on the Christmas table.
I think that I saw this on the Craftwork Cards Blog but I am not sure.
I have cut my card 9 inches square.
I used my scoring blade in my trimmer and scored at 3 and 6 inches in both directions
Then fold and crease all of the score lines.
Use a ruler to score a diagonal line BUT don’t score the centre square as it is the bottom of the box. Score the four corners.
I would normally use a watermark pad to stamp, but because it is a solid stamp I got better definition by using a red ink pad and red embossing powder. I hope that you can see the difference.
The background paper is from one of the 6 x 6 pads I have edged the paper squares with gold embossing.
I have made all four sides the same.
I do love the face of the bird!
I had to be careful when sticking on the birds that they are the right way up.
I punched out a square of card and drew a diagonal lines across it this I placed on the corner and punched through it so that my punch holes are more or less in the same place.
can you see my deliberate mistake, yes I drew my line all the way across.
Perfect for our After Eight Mints, I wonder if the will last until Christmas, well I wonder if they will make it to the weekend!
Gingham ribbon is perfect for holding it all together, and then I can undo the ribbon and fold it flat to store for next year.
Don’t forget to check out the rest of the girls posts on Woodware Witterings this week.
I think that this could be an interesting week of posts from the girls, I have chosen to start my place cards for my table on New Years Day. The Christmas table will feature red but on New Years Day it will be blue.
I have made small easel cards and since I don’t know yet how many I will be having for dinner that day I have made four, but I do expect that I will have to make at least another four cards.
I saw this on Pinterest somewhere used on the front of a card.
I have inked the edges of the circles with Sky Dye Ink
You may recognise this smiling face, I have used the same stamp as last week the Large Snowman Bauble Clear Magic stamp from the Francoise Collection. I used a black Koi pen to ink only the face of the stamp and then punched out with the yellow punch. I coloured the nose and then added Glossy Accents. Large foam mounting pads give him lots of height.
The card is A4 cut in half length ways, Then scored at the half and quarter points. The ovals I have cut with two of the dies from the Stampendous Build a Pop Up Die set.
This is a really quick and very effective decoration for a table.
another idea that I found on Pinterest is to build the snowman flat on a card. I have used the Dreamweaver Leafless Tree for arms.
Thanks for visitng see you soon, remember to check out Woodware Wittering to see what the rest of the team are up to this week.
I coloured with Sakura Brush pens I have used the Burgundy and the Sap Green.
I used my Sakura Gelly Roll in Clear Star to add a touch of sparkle
I used the same colours of pens to make a wishy washy background on my card. I sprayed water on the card and scribbled my pens on my hot stuff mat and then picked the colour up with a wet paint brush.
I have used my trusty Woodware scruffer around the edges.
