Snowglobe Layout Part 2

More catching up, here are two of the other designs I made using my initial snowglobe layout for Xmas cards 2019. One was a commissioned card and the other one I made for a friend.

Ingredients.

• Stamps - Artemio Type F Penguins with Sledge Wooden Stamp. and Hello Bluebird - Frosty Friends.

I got the Artemio stamp as a wooden backed stamp several years ago, it's a favourite. I don't know if you can still buy it, but it does seems Artemio released a clear set including him.

The Frosty Friends set was a second hand purchase, it stamps really nicely so I'm hoping it's the real deal and not a knock off. It wasn't cheap! 

• Scalloped Background shape from the stash, coloured with distress oxides.
• Snowglobe die - Craft Emotions called Snowglobe with Houses.
• Papers from Making Cards Magazine. (I scanned them and have printed them back out many times since my initial freebies with purchase).
• Fairy lights from Paperchase. They were sold as present wrapping.
• Font is CAC Pinafore
• Bling from stash.

Debbie's Donkey Derby!

Hi Friends :) It's another Dr.Digi friday and I am bringing you the newly released Debbie's Donkey Derby! 

So I wanted to make her have a flavour of the English seaside and detract from poor Diego the donkey having a really rough day. I think Debbie thought that galloping on a donkey along the beach might soothe her rather sunburnt body!

Here she is in her digi format -

And here is my version of her (Shes about 11cm high on my card) -

So I did add a bit of background detail because she looked a bit weird floating on a donkey! Hope it doesn't distract and just adds to the theme! Both hats have seaside mottos, traditional ones, if you think either say something rude.... shame on you ;) 

She is so shiny, it was really hard to get a nice flat photo. Normally there would be some daylight to use but the UK only has gloomy rainy weather for the rest of our lives. (Maybe a bit dramatic but ye gads I am bored of it!)

Background paper I think is Kanban, a seaside set from the dark ages. Bling from the stash. Fonts are CAC Pinafore and Wooden Nickle NF. I used a bit of white posca pen and the rest is polychromo pencils.

Exciting events starting on Dr.Digi this weekend! Stay glued to the Dr. Digi Facebook page for more details!!

Happy Birthday Roger

Just a reminder, if you haven't already, pop by the Knitty Kitty Facebook or Instagram Group to take part in the current Kitmas Giveaway!

It's my partner's birthday today, not that he will read this, but just so you know why the following card is a little bit odd, it's for him! :)

So because I was pretty desperate to use my new Lawn Fawn Stamp Set - You're Claw-some, I adapted it and filled it with chess pieces! My partner loves chess. I couldn't resist using some chessboard style floor and funked it up a bit with some spotty background (wall) paper! (From Tonic Mid-Summer Mornings 8x8)

I spotted the matching spotty washi the day after I made the card, so I bought it to decorate the envelope too!

The claw machine and pawns are all coloured with copics and highlighted with posca pen and white gel pen.  The two fonts are CAC Pinafore and Candy Round BTN. I added some acetate to the machine, so you could see through it. Mounted on 7 x 5 card blank.

I kinda wanted to change the greeting to "Hope your birthday is Pawn-some" but then realised that has a VERY different meaning! Oops :)

This card was actually for his Mum to give him. I'll post mine tomorrow. :)
