Red ... But Not Christmas!

Hello everyone,

Well, this is funny, none of my Christmas cards were red, I avoided it and went mainly with aqua and blues with brown.

So, I won a prize at the Stamping Chef last week and couldn't wait to colour  this image called Ella Lovely, I just could see her in anything other than red, so after avoiding it all Christmas, I made this card in red he he!

So enough waffle, here is my card 



The light isn't great here today, so I had the flash on for the middle photo.


The main paper is a digi paper, which is really shabby and the middle section is Maja Design, the sentiment was the border on the same sheet. The taffeta ribbon and heart button are from the ribbon girl.

Enjoy the rest of the holidays and Happy New Year!!!

Sweet Oklahoma

Hello Everyone, 

Here is a card that I made using Krista Smiths Sweet Oklahoma Image. You can find the image here.

I coloured her with copics and tried to add a little dimension to her clothes, hope you like it, its so nice to make something other than a Christmas card this time of year! Mind you, apart from one card that I made in green, I used alot of non traditional xmas colours this year.







I made the flowers from colour core card, I distressed the paper first then cut out the flowers, which gives a nice shabby effect. I also made two of my own pearl and metal hat pins is corresponding colours.


All the papers are Maja Design, including the two doohickey die cuts and I think the border may be Pion.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend, I am off to help santa stock up on my daughters Christmas presents!

Take Care, Cuddles Jay xxx

I would love to enter my card in Copic Marker Europe Challenge - Anything goes

Happy Birthday To You...

Hello Everyone,

I hope your all well and starting to get into the festive spirit he he!!!

So, for a change, I have opted to make a girly card, as I miss my pinks he he!

I just need to explain that the picture quality is not very good due to the dark weather we are having here in Engalnd.



I coloured both Devine Tilda and Tilda in Summer pants with copics and the papers are maja design. The cute bunting is made using a whimsy stamp and I have threaded them all with hemp twine!


I think the lace and pearl border is from the Ribbon Girl store.

Have a lovely week,

Its cold outside! Sure is!!!

After noon everyone, 

Wow it is very cold here in England and at 3pm, its practically twilight, miss summer so much boo hoo!!!

Here is a card that I made for fun, featuring its cold out side Tilda, perfect for today...

The pictures are a bit poor due to the dark weather, I will try again tomorrow.


The beautiful papers are all Maja Design or Pion, I used three altogether and I coloured her with copics. I used one of the paper straws from LLC to added the doohickey flag and stamped and coloured that up too!

I added some little winter chipboard wording and applied snowtex around her feet.


I coloured the skates with white and silver paint, distressed them and used my brad setter to make the holes and threaded them with hemp twine!

Thanks for stopping by, have a fab week and dont do too much xmas shopping!!!

Take care, Cuddles Jay xxx

Rustic magnolia light up fire place

Good morning everyone,
Happy 1st Of December to you!
Today is the first day of our new challenge at Magnolia Mania and its the easiest one around...
Anything Goes!

You have two weeks to share your beautiful ATG creations with us, also pop over to see who was the winner of the last challenges prizes and see if you were on of the DTs top three!

You have the chance of winning a surprise package from Magnolia, wouldn't that be nice in your Christmas Stocking?

I made this rustic light up fire place, complete with two magnolia's, Sparkle Poinsettia Tild and Tilda With Apple Wreath.


I either coloured all of the elements with my copics or covered them with distressed Christmas coloured papers, to give the red glow in side the fire, I used a red bicycle light he he! 


I glossed the hearth tiles and filled a little corked bottle with tiny colourful bells, this is now a permanent Christmas decoration in my home! 

This is the fire place with the magnolia section removed, its a little lighter in colour as it is facing a window, to show the gloss on the tiles.

We cant wait to see what you come up this time around.
