PREMIUM CRAFT BRANDS CHALLENGE #49, ALL ABOUT PAPER AND CARD.....

Hey there guys, it is Sunday today so that means we have another fabby new challenge over at the 



Our generous sponsor is Premium Craft Brands and wow she has a fabulous prize for one winner 

Right then, on to this weeks challenge which is 

                             'All about Paper and Card'

I have worked with a few Rosette dies and made a Christmas tree out of it, once upon a time I saw this fabby picture of Tim Holtz making HIS Christmas tree and I thought to myself why not try it out eh? 

So I have coloured the background of the tree with Versamark and Metallic PanPastels and a christmas sentiment stamp, this time the Golden and Silver Metallic PanPastels. 

As  you can see I placed some stars into the Christmas tree. I played with the Metallic Golden coloured Pans and I think it looks great don't you?

 I tried to show you all the sides of the Tree, so you get an idea how I made it.....I really had fun working on the tree. 

I know a REAL tree has lots of ornaments in it but this one is a small one and to fit all the ornaments in that would be an even bigger job lol.....I sure hope you like the cute tree and hopefully I am giving you some ideas and lots of inspiration on how you can make your own tree or make another project for this weeks challenge over at the Premium Craft Brands Challenge Blog....so come on over and do join into the fun and check out my amazing teamies and what fabulous projects they made....I am sure you are going to love them

Oke here we go with this second weeks project.....

So this is what I made

I just love Christmas......really I do and I do love the Christmas presents too....and I thought why not make a Christmas box to give to someone.....so what I did was I made a box and worked on it with lots wonderfull goodies....worked on this side of the box with the fabulous stencil of Wendy Vecchi, lots of embossing paste and embossing powder....a metal snowflake with embossing powder and some twine....

And offcourse I made a Tag to go with the Box.....again the fabulous stencil from Wendy Vecchi, just love the honeycomb one......the fabulous metall star and a button on top with twine....and the fabulous papers from The Tim Holtz.....I think they go really well together...I mean Tim and Wendy lol......

So this is another side of the box.....everyone who knows me they know that I just love hearts too so I could not resist to put a few hearts on the box too.....with a sentiment on them....

 
the hearts are worked on with distress ink and crackle....and the metall corners are just fabulous to use on whatever project or card your making.....

And this side I placed the sentiments from Tim Holtz Seasonal Chit Chat Stickers..did you ever try them out they are just great...... 
I wanted the lace to come back into the box, so it would fit the tag too.....so what I did was play with lace on a  bottle cap and placed a nice image of Santa in it on top some Glossy Accents....and played with Wendy Vecchi's honeycomb stencil and embossing powder. Don't you just love Christmas.....

And here is my finished Tag with Santa on it....also the papers from Tim Holtz mixed with Wendy Vecchi.....lots of lace and twine on top....I really had loads of fun working on the Christmas Box and Tag and if you want to have that much fun too then I suggest you come over to the Frilly and Funkie Challenge Blog and do join into the fun.

Hey there guys, it is Sunday today so that means we have another fabby new challenge over at the 



Right then, on to this weeks challenge which is 'Winter Wonderland', using metallics plus one other colour. The extra twist for the DT was to use the gorgeous new metallic PanPastels plus one other colour but as they are so new we know not everyone has them yet so that doesn't apply to challenge entrants. The winner will be announced on Sunday 15th December and our lucky winner will receive a fabulous prize of goodies from Premium Craft Brands

So what I did was.....I made a Christmas Tag. Sure loveeee Christmas and making Christmas Tags is one of my favourites......

 I have placed a first layer on the Tag with Gesso, after that the next layer with Modelling Paste. 
On the bottom of the Tag used the same procedure worked on it with lots of Modelling Paste and stencils for the background. Used the Silver Metallic PanPastels on my Tag and the Blue PanPastel. I just love the Metallic PanPastels they are so very easy to use and have this amazing effect on whatever your using to make a project. I can tell you if you don't have these fabulous Metallic PanPastels then you better make sure to get some cause your going to love them too.....and offcourse I cannot do without crackle lol.....so I just had to place another layer of the yummi stuff....
                      
And here is my finished Tag......easy to make and really lovely to work on. Underneith the reindeer I placed some "snow" to finish my tag.
