Magical Moments are Everywhere

Welcome Friends;

As well as another week gone by, so has January.  Time is either at a standstill or flies by.  Either way we need to enjoy the magical moments that are everywhere.

For today’s card, I used Wizarding Gnome and paired it with Magical Moments (both from High Hopes Stamps).  Hopefully, he can give us all plenty of these magical moments.

After stamping the image onto some XPress It Blending Cardstock, I coloured it with Copic Markers.  Using the Stitched Wonky Oval Die, I cut the coloured image out as well as to plain ovals using some design & mulberry papers.  After assembling the pieces together, I added some German Glass Glitter Shards to the sides of the main image.  Some other Glitter and Enamel Dots finished off this CAS card.

Our friendship is magic!

Friendship, Magic, ,

Welcome All;

Another month is almost over, and we are all still at home.  Even though summer is approaching we are still advised against having family gatherings.  A hard thing to do as we all want to be outside and enjoying ourselves along with family and friends.

All of our friendships during these times are without a doubt more precious and magical.Well Henry is here to share some magic and cheer everyone up during these hard times. 

For today’s post I used the magical Henry the Great from High Hopes Stamps.  After colouring the image with Copic Markers, I cut it out using the Wonky Stitched Squares Die.  The piece of white on the left hand side does have a pattern on it, but unfortunately the photo doesn’t pick up the design very well.  Some YNS Gumdrops finish off the design.
