Sweet Dixie *Rockers* ..!!

This Friday I'm featuring two *Rocker* cards each created using Sweet Dixie clear Stamps both sets Designed by Lindsay Mason from Personal Impressions.



The Rocker card was created by cutting a 5.5" circle, scoring mid point at 2.75" then folding in half to create the Card.

Santa, Reindeer and sack of Toys image were stamped and coloured using ProMarkers, fussy cut then adhered to the rocker card.

  

Be mindful where you place the images and work out the correct balance so the card rocks freely. This is the reason my Reindeer has a larger than usual Red Nose because my card seemed a little one sided so the larger flat back pearl nose added the extra weight I needed for my card to rock freely. Frosted lace Stickles adds a snowy texture to the white background.



The Tipsy Snowman image is one of my personal favourites from Lindsays Christmas Collection and some of you may remember that I have featured this stamp set previously.

The same concept has been used for this Rocker as the Skating Santa, stamped image, coloured, fussy cut and applied to the top edge of the rocker card. The sentiment used is from the same stamp set. Frosted Lace Stickles again adds a little texture.


What more can we ask for at Christmas but Rocking Santa's, Reindeer and Tipsy Snowmen..??


Thank you for sharing your time with me.. Have a creative Weekend.

Fancy and Cute... Sweet Dixie

Today I share a double helping of Christmas card creations using Sue Dix Sweet Dixie stamps from Personal Impressions.

The first stamp set is Sweet Dixie Fancy Reindeer  a mighty fine stamp full of detail and very fancy indeed. Stamped onto distressed stamping card with versafine black onyx ink and heat embossed using sweet dixie clear embossing powder. The main image has been coloured using Spectrum Noir Colorista muted colours sets 5 and 6.


The hanging baubles, Reindeer coat and holly have all been stamped twice, cut and layered onto of the image to add depth and dimension. The Merry Christmas sentiment is just one of two included in the set. The card has been mat and layered using complimentary colours and embellished with twine and a flat back pearl snowflake.


The second card share is Sweet Dixie Cute Snowman stamps, designed by Sue Dix from her 2016 clear stamp Christmas Collection from Personal impressions.


The white background has been created using die cut snowflakes from Sue's Let is Snow Sweet Dixie die set adhered to the same quality card. The Snowman image has been stamped and coloured using promarkers, various elements have been stamped more than once, coloured, cut and layered on top to add dimension


The sentiment is one of three within this set. this one seemed quite fitting. 
Ranger Stickles and Glossy Accents add the final touch to this Cute little Snowman.

Thank you for taking a peek and sharing your creative time with me. 
Have a sweet day..
