Vannessa's January Inspiration Post featuring Xbox Gamer

Good morning everyone and Happy New Year to you all. I hope you all had a restful and happy holiday. 

For my inspiration card today, I have chosen to make a boy's card as I never seem to have enough of these and there's so many fabulous images in the Cute As A Button store to choose from! This one is Xbox Gamer and a perfect image for a teenage boy's birthday card (or as in my case my soon to be 41 year old brother, whose birthday is coming up soon!)

You can pop over to my blogpost here to read more about this card and the colour combos I used to colour her.

Vannessa's December Inspiration Post Featuring Candy Cane Fairy

Good morning everyone and welcome to my DT inspiration post for December. This month I thought I would go for a cute Christmas image and chose to use the adorable, sleeping Candy Cane Fairy. I love using non-traditional colours for my Christmas and Winter cards especially when using fairies, so opted for a bright pink and turquoise combo and love how it came out!

November Inspiration Post - Vannessa

Good Morning everyone! Vannessa here, the newest member of the Cute As A Button Design Team. I was recently asked to join and jumped at the chance as I just love Francesca's images!

For my first inspiration post, I chose to use the gorgeous Miss Frosty I just love her adorable snowman (or snowwoman, really!) outfit and her fluffy boots! 

I just love to use pretty papers and lots of layers on my cards and very rarely do you find a card of mine without some ribbon or embellishments of some kind! I went for a mostly red and white colour combo, but it was too much red with all red papers, so added the aqua and I love how it makes Miss Frosty pop that much more! 

I coloured the image with Copic markers and added some touches of red glitter glue to the snowflakes as well as some clear sparkle pen to the sentiment die cuts. 

I hope you love my first project as much as I do! You can pop over to my blogpost here to read more about this card and the colour combos I used to colour her.
