Craft-Dee BowZ  to leave a comment to say you have joined in the hop


I have made this card and bag combo using a 6x6 card blank. I embossed the background with an embossing folder ,and cut a pretty edge with a sizzlit edge die.I used a stunning rich purple organza ribbon that I received as part of my MPP pack from the fab Bosses Craft-Dee BowZ. I used a sizzix die set to create the frame around the stampin up stamped sentiment.The bird punch also is from stampin up.The leaf punch is from Martha stewart and the bunch of berries are from Anna marie designs..I love the sparkly gems ..so thanks Donna they are fabulous ...The gift bag was made using an A4 size piece of card to start with so it gave me a nice sized bag to hold a gift or candies.The bows on both projects have been made using my Trusty Craft-Dee BowZ   Bow making tool..which is my go to tool for perfect easy to make bows EVERY time.

Craft-Dee BowZ Challenge time

Hi all
It is time for another challenge at Craft-Dee BowZ .The theme as always is anything with a handmade bow.The Dt are Rocking a Christmas theme for your inspiration this month...Here is my card .I used an Indigo blue stamp and some fab sparkly red wow embossing powder on the whole card...If you cant sparkle at Christmas when can you ....!!!
I also used silver mirror card and a cheery lynn die for the swirls.The flower stamp is actually an anemone stamped flower by Sheena douglas which also got the sparkly treatment and I added an acetate flower to the top. The pretty silver organza  ribbon was part of my MPP pack this month ...It made a stunning bow .I also as always used my Craft-Dee BowZ Bow making tool ...I use it for every bow I make and it never lets me down.

Here is a close up of my bow..

Autumnal colours....

Hi all
It is Tracey here.... It  is my turn to post  a project for your inspiration .The Dt are featuring Festive Foliage and burlap this month for you .Autumn is  my favourite time of year  so I really enjoyed making this card using an autumnal colour pallette
I have used a sizzix bird cage die and a stampin up bird punch.I also used papers from Trimcraft first edition Rose pad.The frame around the birdcage is a die from spellbinders.I distressed the paper edges using a Tim Holtz distressing tool.The flowers are from Wild orchid and I used burlap for the leaves which I die cut . The stuning ribbon was given to me as part of my Pack from Donna ,it is such beautiful ribbon to work with and my Trusty Craft-Dee Bowz bow making tool which makes a bow look amazing in seconds.

I finished it off with a chipboard word Faith which was sent to me by my team mate Gail and added  a cute birdcage charm and some gems..

challenge time at Craft-Dee Bowz

Hi
It is challenge time again at Craft-Dee BowZ ... Wow the weeks are flying by ....The theme of the challenge is as always " Anything goes with a handmade bow."
The Dt have a theme for the month of Festive fall using burlap for foliage so for my DT project I have made this 8x8 card using Graphic 45 papers  and ephemera cards from the time to flourish paper pads.....The image is a digi image from the paper shelter ...
I coloured the image with promarkers and distressed the edges of the image panel with antique linen Tim Holtz distress ink.I used a sweet Dixie die for the frame around the image.The flowers are all from mulberry crafts.I used burlap for the foliage which I cut with a TH bigz die.The beautiful bow was made as always using my Craft-Dee BowZ bow maker ...It is my go to bow maker every time as I know I will create a stunning bow in seconds with ease ....this beauty on my card has 3 loops !!!
