Fairy Challenges - Whoopsidaisy

Good morning & welcome to another challenge from 

Fairy Challenges

This week we are being sponsored by

Whoopsidaisy

We were given some gorgeous images to work with & here is my card

I just adore this image, I think it's so lovely & delicate so I wanted a card to reflect that. I used pale pink as my base & I used my cameo to cut the background & fold & tuck strip. I then made a little paper bow.

I cut & made some paper flowers in matching shades, along with some flourishes

The image itself has been coloured in with my promarkers, in shades of blue & pinks.

So, there you have it, I had such fun making this project & I am pleased with how it's turned out. Be sure to stop by & see what the rest of the team have come up with

Creative Fingers Challenges - Dilly Beans

Good morning all & Happy Valentine's Day, I hope you all have a great day & weekend. It's time for another challenge from 

Creative Fingers Challenges

& this week we have been sponsored by the lovely

Dilly Beans

& there is, of course, a prize for the lucky winner.

Our theme this week is

"More Than One Layer"

& so, onto my make

I got to play with the gorgeous Heart Fairy Framed, & you can find her here

I firstly coloured my image & then spent AGES looking for the papers I wanted, I have tons & tons of digi papers, so looking can sometimes take a wee while lol. When I had finally picked I inked up some mats to layer them onto, I went with shades of red, green & yellow. 

The image itself was coloured with promarkers. 

I then cut some flowers 

& a pop up butterfly before putting the card together 

I hope you like it but to be honest, it's one of those cards I am a bit unsure of. I don't know why, but sure we all have those kinda moments :)

Do pop by & see what the rest of the girls have come up with & I do hope you'l join us.

Hey everyone, another post from me today, this time I want to share a project with you that I made using my new toys, my Cameo & Meltpot. Is it possible to be in love with a machine???? If so, I am lol

After trying a few cuts & flowers I knew I wanted to do a little wall hanging. So decided on this wooden heart & I did it for my mam for Mother's Day

I firstly painted on some gesso. Once this was dry I added my paper, cut around it & distressed the edges. I then used an Indigo Blu stamp on it. 

I cut all my embellishments (hinges, a banner, dress form, leaf flourish & the flower layers) from white card stock using cutting files. I then inked & stamped on them before dipping in my Meltpot, I had to use my heat gun too as I had some big blobs, but I'm sure I'll get used to it soon. I am determined not to let it end up in a press.

I love making flowers & the fact the UTEE makes them sturdy enough for home decor projects is great. 

I then simply sat for a while arranging them until I was happy with the layout.

So, here is my make

I became the ultra proud owner of a Silhouette Cameo this week so I off course had to use it for this card. I cut my floral backing & mounted it onto my black card base. I cut some extra flowers, flourishes & a 3d paper bow (I so love these bows)

Another angle for ya :)

My image was coloured in with my promarkers & matted onto grey card stock. I added the bow, a rolled rose & some flourishes & assembled the card. I left it without a sentiment for now, as I don't know who it will be for.

The colours I used for the digi were:

So, our theme this week is

"Love Is In The Air"

& here is my make

I got to play with this fab image called "French Maid"

I decided to make an easel card as I haven't made one in a long time & I wanted the image to pop. My DP is from Papermania. The red & black card were offcuts from my bit box. I die cut a heart & stamped onto it in black memento

I ran some silver mirror card through an embossed folder & cut out some of the hearts, I think they look a little like charms. I used peel offs for my sentiment

My image was coloured with my, now complete except for limited edition, promarkers. I used all the Cool Greys & Black. Her skin is my go to combo of Coral, Sunkissed Pink, Blush & Baby Pink

The reds I used were Burgundy, Cardinal Red & Ruby. I added highlights of glitter to the shoes

& there ya have it.

Just Inspirational Challenges - February challenge.

Good morning everyone & happy Saint Brigid's day to you all :) I'm sure all my Irish friends will remember making the crosses in school lol. Anyway, enough of my rambling, it's time for the start of another monthly challenge from

Just Inspirational Challenges

This month we are sponsored by 

Crimson Cloud

& our theme is

Carnival

I had such a hard time deciding what direction to go with my project.

I knew I wanted to create my own backgrounds & as I had been shopping at my fav craft shop I had just the stamps I wanted to use. I started off with a black card base, I stamped the edges with my stamp & versamark & dusted mica powder over it. For my red panel, I used fired brick distress ink & flicked some water droplets onto it before soaking it up with some kitchen paper, I love the effect this gives (even if I did end up covering most of it with my image) 

I used the same stamp that I used on the base & this time stamped it in memento black ink. I used templates to cut out my ticket shapes & again inked them with distress inks. I then over stamped them with some more of my new stamps :)

My image was coloured with my promarkers (oooohhhhh & today I finally completed the collection, so now it's onto Flex markers, no wonder I never have any money lol) & I cut it into an oval & matted it onto more black. She's a retired image from Sassy Studio Designs but do stop by as there are so many fab images there.

I die cut & rolled my roses, dipped them in glue & then red or silver fine glitter. I cut some leaves out too & then assembled my card. I finished off with a flat back black pearl from my stash.

I'll add the stamps I used & where I got them below, as I know some of you will love them as much as me :)
