Hi there today... start of a new week and three cards to share with you.
My first is a 'flat' card - stamped directly onto a card and watercoloured with Distress Inks (carefully so it doesn't seep thru to the other side) and then I added some detail with coloured pencils. --- And joining in the Jingle Bells challenge - Flat Feliz Navidad
And as it's another Bird card - from the 12 days of Christmas set I have and never used till this week - I am joining in with CAS Christmas June challenge - Birds, so glad they're back !!
AND so I'm also joining in the NBUS Challenge #87
My second card is a 'SNOWY' one -- a bit of masking and 'Inking Direct to the Card' to create snow hills ... stamped on some trees and a little deer - see his gorgeous red bow and added lots of snowflakes with my white paint pen.
And I'm sharing this one with Christmas Kickstart challenge #111 - Snow Day
And another one over at Double 'D' - Add a Bow
Lastly a Birthday card featuring a Die Cut Butterfly
Quite simple to make - cutting a card front with a couple curves to show off lovely pattern paper positioned underneath - gold embossed the curved edge and the sentiment and finished off with a butterfly die cut from gold card and a few gems
Joining in the challenge at Just Us Girls challenge #826 - Use a Die Week
And it's also Week 2 with Darnells IDEAS prompt - D = Dies/Die cuts
I've had such a good time making card this week and being inspired by all the challenges
Thanks so much for stopping by my clog, have an awesome day
Cheers Robyn
A beautiful trio of cards Robyn - I particularly like the third one with the gold edged curves

Robyn... Love your butterfly. The background is so creative, and the gold edges are the perfect touch. Love that you used Stardream Gold cardstock for your butterfly. Thank you so much for sharing with Just Us Girls.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great Christmas card with the partridge in the pear tree. All 3 cards are very nice. [Bunny]
ReplyDeleteYour golden butterfly and those edges in gold caught my eye right away...wow, what an impact! The pink background is a lovely addition to the card as well. Thanks for sharing this pretty card with us at Just Us Girls!
ReplyDeletelovely cards ... I really love how you colored your partridge ... so glad you shared your flat card with us at Jingle Belles.
ReplyDeleteThree fantastic cards Robyn. LOVE your Partridge in a Pear Tree image. It's so beautifullly watercoloured. Thanks so much for joining us at CAS Christmas with a second card!!
ReplyDeleteThen you have the amazing direct-to-paper inking of your winter wonderland scene with sweet reindeer. Thanks for sharing that with us at Group of Cardmakers!
And your last card is so beautiful and elegant. I love the beautiful patterned paper peaking through the curves of white, which are edged in gold. Amazing design element!! The gorgeous gold butterfly is the perfect finishing touch. I can tell that you had a great time making these cards, Robyn!! :)
Three beautiful cards. Love your snowy scene, and how you created those hills xxx
ReplyDeleteYes, three lovely colored cards. I especially love the partridge one.
ReplyDeleteYum, yum, yum! All three of these designs are just yummy, Robyn! I love how you have such a wide range of talent and eye for design! I actually have a favorite (altho not easy!) and that's the last one. What a fabulous swooping and elegant design and great way to showcase gorgeous pp! I am totally CASEing this! I'm glad you used the I.D.E.A.S. Calendar and thank you for inspiring everyone to use their NBUS! Hugs, Darnell

ReplyDeleteA beautiful CAS butterfly card Robyn. Love the gold accents. Thanks for sharing at JUGS.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful line up! I absolutely love the partridge stamp, and your butterfly card is scrumptiously dreamy -- wow! Love that design and will bookmark for future reference. Your deer in the snowy scene is the sweetest thing with its cute little bow! I'm so glad you shared with us at Double D!

You have been busy Robyn and three beautiful cards to show for it too. I love your partridge in a pear tree beautifully coloured with your pencils, and the second wonderful snowy scene with the direct to paper inking works brilliantly, and the added snow slopes and trees and that sweet little deer finish it perfectly. Your last is so pretty in pink and gold and the added gold butterfly is perfect and I love the curving shape revealing the lovely paper behind it. x
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous cards all round. Of course i am MOST impressed by the gorgeous single-layer card with the partridges, and it is truly spectacular! Thanks for joining our Flat Feliz Navidad fun at Jingle Belles!
ReplyDeleteWhat a super selection, Robyn! Love them all. Thanks for joining Caroline and me at The Christmas Kickstart Challenge, Jo x
