Monday Funday

Today I’m crafting again. I seem to be on a roll at the moment, either that or I’m ‘procraftinating’ when I should be doing housework!

First up is a card for Freshly Made Sketches. #384.

For the stripes, I scored some lines and added a water coloured little piggy and sentiment for the rectabgle shape.

Next is a card for the April CAS Stencil and CAS Christmas challenges.

I used some transparent texture paste from Ranger over a stencil on some black card stock. The elf is from an MFT set called ‘Santa’s Elves’ that I coloured with my SU Blends. I die cut it to make a tag.

Next up is a card for the CAS Watercolour Apirl challenge.

I used both the solid and outline flowers form the Unity Stamps set called ‘Donna poppies’. I used CPD Rockin Red ink for the main flower. The sentiment is from Clearly Besotted called ‘Poppy’.

Next up is a card for the Penny Black Saturday Challenge. This is my first time playing ith this challenge, I love thier stamps.

I used one of the adorable inages from the Hedgie Friends set that I coloured with my SU Blends and fussy cut out. I used an ALtenew stecnil with SU Illuminate ink and a little bit of thread at the top.

Lastly a very different style of card for me. Its for the current challenge over at C.R.A.F.T. Challenges #510.

I used 3 types of DSP from a SU pack called ‘Tea for Two’ with some paper ribbon under the flower and a bit of fringed ribbon under the stamped sentiment from Simon Says Stamp called ‘Amazing’ (hoping the stamped sentiment counts as the image part!).

Well that’s it for today, thanks for looking and have a great day.

Hey there! I’m a card-making enthusiast with a passion for creativity that knows no bounds. Currently, I’m fortunate to be a part of four fantastic international card design teams, where I get to explore my craft and connect with fellow artists from all corners of the globe. It’s amazing how the world of card making can bring people together, and I’m constantly inspired by the diversity of styles and ideas that come my way. Beyond my card-making adventures, I lead a pretty busy life in the learning and development field, where I work full time as a Learning Lead. I thrive on helping others grow and reach their full potential, and it’s a role that keeps me on my toes and constantly learning. When I’m not immersed in the world of work or crafting, you can find me on the netball court, coaching and sharing my love for the game with a bunch of amazing individuals. So, whether I’m crafting, guiding professional development, or coaching on the court, I’m all about embracing lifes colorful and creative possibilities! Thanks for stopping by my corner of the web, and I hope you enjoy exploring my card creations and more.

    1. Tx CHristie. Yes I did forgot the rules – was a bit inspired with the creative process on this one. I like your suggestion and might do that next time I use that small stencil.
