Another unknown die manufacturer!I'm trying to use dies I have bought over the years, but have never used. It certainly is a lot of work cutting out all the pieces. I tend to make mistakes on the first try such as gluing the pieces together wrong! This card I didn't get the mustache in the righ place. Second time I did it right! The above sentiment is from Lili of the Valley, the other is from Silhouette.
I separated this die set from it's packaging so I no longer know who made the set. Unfortunately, I did this with any sets that were not Stampin' Up or Spellbinder's. This set took me FOREVER. I spent about four to five hours making two of these cards. Some of the pieces were unbelievably small and I lost them constantly. After all, I really like this card. I don't think I will make it again, though
The ornaments were done with a Spellbinder's stencil set. The penguins are from a Spellbinder's die set. I had quite a bit of trouble with my Stampin' Up ink being too dry to spread and blend well. I even tried re-inking and it did not help.
This is one of my favorite Christmas images. I looked for it for years. I finally found it and was so unhappy with how it stamped I never colored it. I finally found a stamp pad that stamped it well. As you can see the lines still are a little heavy. With the usual inks the lines just seemed to smear. The image is colored with Copics.
The above two cards were made with images from NitWit Collections. Easy Peasy!
This image is by Mariola Budek. It's available on Etsy. I am using copic markers to color this. I decided to make the horse a palomino. I remember being a little girl and watching the parades through town. I always waited with anticipation to see the gorgeous palominos.
