COLOUR THEME HOUSE GARLAND!

Hello and a VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR from me today!   am following on with our Colour Theme today with a Home Sweet Home Garland.  I think the light was a bit off when I took the picture, sorry about that...

A reminder of the colours we have used this week...

I have decorated this pretty banner with papers and corrugated card, using rough string for hanging.

A longer string of these would look lovely done in lots of different colours wouldn't it?

If you fancy working with these colours then why not enter our challenge?  We are running a challenge through the month where you can join us with each weeks themes and be put into a draw to win fabulous prizes.  You can link your work *here*.

Thank you for looking today, take care, Karen x

CAS Birthday Card in Blue and Beige

Happy New Year from me, I hope it's a good one for you.  I made a card for our colour scheme:

I've started with a background of hearts from the ~{Hearts Background Mask}~ then cut a piece from the ~{Lace Effect Borders}~ which I painted with a pomegranite colour. Once dry, I painted it cream then dabbed with some scrap paper to lift it and show the darker colour.

I added a strip of paper and did a row of dots from the ~{Grid Round Mask}~.

Next I painted a ~{Mini Butterfly}~, then stamped a text stamp onto it, inked the edges and added a couple of pearl gems. I finished with a greeting.

Keep coming back this week to see the inspiration from the rest of the team and join us  if you want to.

Celebrate the New Year with Dana

Hi Tando fans! Dana here today sharing a card that I created to help celebrate the New Year. I've been using the Round Grid a lot lately and have saved the small circles that I punched out of the grid. They made great buttons for this black tie card! I simply colored the chipboard with black ink and glued them onto layers of white cardstock.

You can find the Round Grid in the New Releases section of the Tando Retail Shop. I hope you all start your New Year off with a bang! Thanks for stopping by today!

Tim's Tags Tando Style with Katy

Not strictly a DT make today as it's of course based on the work of Sir Tim and his 12 tags of 2014 for December.

As soon as I saw the tag Tim had made I thought of the gorgeous deer chippies that Tando make (pictured below). I painted and glittered the lovely running reindeer and used modelling paste to make the 'snow'. More on my blog.

See you in 2015 - Happy New Year!

Anything goes with Irit

 Hello my dear crafty friends!
I know that we all are deep into Holidays, but I just have a few projects I made lately and never posted in Tando blog. And as I used lovely new Tando products, I decided to share them even if those are not Holidays projects at all.
This is the first one- lovely very simple layout made with masking and stamping over the painted chipboard title. (Also the whole background is stamped and colored, but it's not Tando issue for this matter).

Those are the products used here:

I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year!

Anything Goes with Katy - Frosty Winter Tag

I have a quick tag for you today featuring a one of my favourite Tando Masks - joined snowflakes. This mask is really detailed and gives a fabulous effect.

I sprayed my tag with Distress Stains over the mask to make a background and embellished it with a large snowflake from the Tando pack of 5 Snowflakes, which I covered with gesso and Distress Glitter in Rock Candy so it's lovely and sparkly!
