Leah's 7th Birthday

 

At Kate Hadfield Designs there are so many fabulous sets it is really easy to get inspired to use them. There are digital stamps which you can colour, coloured versions you can scrapbook or make into digital layouts. Papers, patterned overlays and doodles galore. No matter what your skill level there are so many goodies to play with.

One of the most fabulous things about being in this Creative Team is that we have free rein to make anything we want to using the sets in the shop. This is amazing for inspiring creativity as there are so many amazing packs to play with. I feel very, very lucky to be able to have this opportunity.

For this card I started with the pink paper from the Painted Pretties kit. I feel this is one of the most versatile kits as you can isolate just a section to get the colourway you want for your project and it has a lovely texture to it.

I added the triangle banner from Joodle Strips 6 at the top of the page to add a celebratory feel.

I used many elements from the Happily Ever After kit. Leah is the neighbour over the road's daughter and we have seen her grow up form being a tiny baby to the little princess she is today so this kit is just perfect for her card. The princess, castle hearts and flowers are all from this kit.

I added the text sentiment and printed out 7" square. Matted onto metallic card (you can just see my reflection at the bottom) and then added to an 8" card base.

Kate is really generous with her freebies which are readily available.

Mothers Day Voucher

It was Mothers Day in the UK on 15th March and I created this voucher for my Mother In Law's gift. It measures 6" square. The background is made using the daisy pattern from Springtime Overlays at 50% opacity.

Top and bottom is from Springtime Tapes which uses the same daffodil images that are on the text panel. Those are from the Signs of Spring Doodles kit.

The text panel is a simple panel of pale yellow to co-ordinate. Ironically I mentioned the words after the risk of frost has gone and only 2 days later I was scraping ice off my car at 6am

The panel was printed out, matted onto green card and then on a rich cream card. Mom was delighted with her gift and I loved creating it for her.

Under The Tree

The main focus of this card is the Christmas tree and presents underneath. The images are from the Under The Tree kit. There are 3 gifts in this kit and I digitally placed two on each side underneath the tree before printing it out.

The base of the card and the image mat are a lovely encapsulated glitter card from Crafter's Companion which adds so much sparkle with no danger of shedding everywhere ( I am often sporting some glitter on my face or clothes but some people are not so keen on the idea....)

The plaid paper is from a traditional pad from Craft Sensations. It's the perfect pattern to go with this image as it picks us bothe red and green well and looks nice with the gold.

I added some star gems to the stars on the image and some large circular ones to the baubles.

Finally the sentiment is a recycled one from a shop bought card, trimmed down, matted with a scrap of gold paper and a couple of small gems that cover tiny gold stars.

This card has been made using the Wrap Up Warm Doodles kit and it is the first time I have used it. 

 I love the cute images Kate produces and the bright colours are right up my street. The little penguin from this set is the star of the show and I chose the penguin paper for the background to compliment.

I used some silver paper to cover the base card and provide a mat for the image. I hen used an offcut of blue to provide the background for the sentiment which was recycled from another card and popped uo on foam dots.

As a finishing touch I added a green pom pom to the hat.

Christmas Tag Place Cards

For this project I used the Colour In Christmas Gift Tags to make some place cards for Christmas dinner at my Sister's house.

Each tag in the set was used and I matched the character with the person who it was made for. 

The tags were sized to 4" wide, printed onto my special bleed proof paper and coloured with an assortment of Promarkers & Spectrum Noir.

These were then cut out and mounted to a more substantial card to make them suitable to stand up on the table.

I wanted to show that with a bit of lateral thinking this printable would be suitable to make something other than a gift tag.

Iced Christmas Cake

For this card I chose to use the yummy Christmas cake from Festive Fare Sweet Treats.

When I was growing up my parents did not have much money but always made a real effort at Christmas to have treats and goodies such as a tin of Quality Street or Roses, sherry trifle and Christmas Cake. Ours was never a posh one like in this image though. One like this was something to dream of and I never have had one as an adult as my hubby doesn't like this kind of fruit cake :(

I covered the blank card with a red spotty paper and then added a panel of the green and red which I matted on gold metallic card. The holly patterned paper is from my scraps box which was recycled from a card I had received. The image was matted on gold to match and I popped this up on foam pads.

The sentiment is from the Winterberry collection box. It has a red border so trimmed it down and matted onto gold card. I added some red ribbon from this kit and popped on foam pads.

For this card I created an ensemble by combining the robin from Very Very Merry with the holly from Winter Flora

The image was matted onto pearlescent red card stock from the Winterberry kit by Crafter's Companion. The lovely patterned paper and bakers twine were also from this kit.

I added an offcut of the metallic gold cardstock used in a previous card.

The holly & berries diamond painting sticker are from the Craft Buddy kit I have used in recent cards.

Finally I added some small gems in the opposite corner to add some balance.

Change Colours Red & Green

At Beccy's Place Month of Holiday Cards challenge for day 8 we have been tasked to make at least 2 cards with the same layout and design but different colours.

I never make 2 cards the same so I was pleased to be able to make them at least a different colour.

At Kate Hadfield Designs there are so many fabulous sets it is really easy to get inspired to use them. There are digital stamps which you can colour, coloured versions you can scrapbook or make into digital layouts. Papers, patterned overlays and doodles galore.

I made the ensemble using 3 of the images from the Very Very Merry Stamps pack. This set is also available in pre-coloured Doodles for super easy card making.

This 2nd card I made colouring the images with red & green Triblend Brushmarkers. I added some dots of marker to the background.

I matted the image with thin red card. The base of the card has been covered with a lovely metallic cardstock from Crafter's Companion which has the Merry Christmas sentiment in different fonts. If course being metallic it wasn't the easiest to photograph so apologies for that.

Over at Kate Hadfield Designs there is lots going on. Kate is really generous with her freebies which are readily available.
