Tilda + Co Baby Challenge
The challenge at Tilda + Co this week is to use a baby theme in your work. I have made a little photo album which I will use to put one of my son's photos in - I'll have to make some more for my other son and daughters. I used the Bind It All to make the book and covered it with Basic Grey papers. All the images are by Magnolia which I have stamped and coloured with Prismacolors and Sansador and I've used ribbon and fibres from my stash.
I used the Cricut Design Studio to weld the letters together, my first time using it, it's not too difficult but I had a bit of help from hubby!!
4x4 Friday Open Theme
There is an open theme at 4x4 Friday this week so it gave me the perfect opportunity to use my Tilda's Owl stamp, he is just so cute. I hae stamped and coloured him and added Glossy Accents to his eyes. The circles are cut with Nestabilities dies and the blue one has been embossed with the Cuttlebug.
Have a good weekend.
Love Cats
I was planning on making a pretty girly pink card this morning and this is what I ended up making!! Not quite what i had in mind. I love these papers by Bo Bunny they are such great colours. I cut the letters and the hearts with the Cricut and used a stamp by Rubber Stampede. I have had this stamp for over 5 years and use it quite a lot and today I noticed for the 1st time that the picture on the stamp is slightly different from the stamped image, very
odd.
I just had another look at this photo and the card looks really dirty like I dropped it in a puddle or something - it doesn't look like this in real life!
Michelle's Blog Candy + Card
I received this gorgeous card and some fab stamps from Michelle this morning as I was lucky enough to win her blog candy. Thanks Michelle
DCM 'Substitute' Sketch
This weeks challenge at DCM is to make a card using a 'substitute' sketch as Jo is poorly and couldn't upload her challenge. I have used a Penny Black hedgehog stamp. a hero Arts greeting and a pretty flower stamp by Magnolia. All the images are coloured with Prismacolor and Sansador and have glitter added for a bit of sparkle. The flowers on the paper are also glittery and are from a DCWV stack.
ArtyGirlz Animals Challenge
The challenge at ArtyGirlz this week is animals. It is such a beautiful sunny day here today that I have decided to use bright, cheery colours on my card. I have stamped and coloured this image by Penny Black and added glitter to the flowers and bees and also a few gems. The rectangles are cut with Nestabilities dies. I'm not too sure about the flower in the corner but it's stuck on now so will have to stay!!
PaperTakes Weekly Violets are Blue Challenge
The challenge at Papertakes this week is to use violets or blues on your project. I've made a little Bind It All notebook with a stamped image of Edwin on it. The book is 4x4 and i think Grant is planning on giving it to his friend. The letters are cut with the Cricut, I think it was the Doodletype cartridge.
TMTA Winter Challenge
The theme at TMTA this week is winter and to use mainly blue on your ATC. I have used a Bella image which I have coloured and then I added a snowflake brad and lots of icy sparkle. The papers are from HOTP and I printed the words using a Lisa Bearnson font.
The weather is terrible here today, very heavy rain and it is so grey and miserable, hence the not so brilliant photo. Hope it's better wherever you are.
Tilda + Co Shiny Silver Challenge
This my DT card for the Tilda + Co challenge. I have stamped and coloured all the images with Prismacolors and Sansador. I stamped the dog, cat, Edwin and butterflies separately and then fixed them onto the card. The brads in the corners are silver.
'Purple' Duck
I made this quick card earlier today, I love this duck stamp he is so cute. I stamped and coloured the image and then cut it out with the Nestabilities dies. I have got the square ones on order, I hope they come on Monday.
Bind It All Notebook + 4x4 Friday People With Wings Challenge
This is a little notebook which I have made for Alex's friend Ellie. I am also going to enter it for the 4x4 Friday people with wings challenge as the book is 4x4 and Tilda has her glittery wings. I have stamped and coloured Tilda and her dog and added a few touches of glitter to Tilda and a little heart gem to the dog. The papers and fibres are from Basic Grey. I use mountboard for the notbook covers and cut up printer paper for the pages - much cheaper than buying the Bind It All things. The colours are a lot nicer than in the photo but it's grey and raining here again today and I need to get it wrapped up.
Scalloped Baby Notecard
I was looking at Claudia's blog the other night and saw that she had a tutorial for making scalloped notecards with the Nestabilities dies, they looked so pretty I just had to have a go. I have used the largest scalloped rectangle and this cute little Penny Black stamp. The cards look so sweet I think I'll be making a few more.
Wednesday Stamper Kings Challenge
The challenge at Wednesday Stamper is kings. I have made an ATC using a stamp by Magnolia and cut out the middle king, which I then coloured with Prismacolors and Sansador. I have embossed the blue card with the Cuttlebug and added 3 brads and a Dymo title.
