Month: October 2019

Well hello and welcome to today’s post. It’s time for another challenge over at Get Creative Challenges where its Anything Goes with an optional twist to make a shaped card.

Our sponsors for this challenge are:  

• Just Me Digital Stamps
• Dr Digi‘s

• 

• 

I chose a digital image from Just Me called ‘Christmas Elves’ which I coloured with my Stampin Blends. I die cut a scalloped oval for my card base and realised it didn’t stand on it’s own so cut a little bit off the bottom.

Check out the Get Creative Challenge blog for details on the sponsor prizes and links to the other fabulous projects from the DT and come join in our fun and share your anything goes project by 2pm Monday 1st November (Melbourne time) or 11pm Sunday 31st October (US Eastern Standard time)

Thanks for looking and have a great day.

Well daylight savings has started – yay – so I can pretend that I slept in today! Nah, I love daylight savings, I enjoy getting home from work and it’s still light and I can sit outside and enjoy the smell of the jasmine on the fence.

Miss K is away camping with a friend so I can craft without feeling guilty about not spending time with her!

Today as per usual I’m playing along with a few challenges. First up is The Sisterhood of Crafters – Friend(ship).

I created a sunny looking alcohol ink background, I used a sentiment from CAS-ual Fridays ‘Sassy Smiles’ and added a few flower sequins.

Next up is a card for a new to me challenge – Always Fun Challenge #130 – Anything Goes.

I made a card for a guy with a stenciled background in SU grey granite, a digital SU motorcross image and a sentiment from Stampers Anonymous ‘Handwritten Thoughts’ that seemed fitting.

Next is a card for The Card Concept #120.

I was inspired by the blue and white striped jug and flowers. I used an old SU stripe background stamp inked up in CP Juniper Mist and the flower is from Altenew ‘Wallpaper Art’ coloured with my Stampin Blends.

Next is a card for the current Alphabet Challenge Blog – N is for Naughty.

I used a stamp set from The Ton called ‘Born Classy’ and a Unity Stamps sentiment that seemed a perfect match.

Next card is for 2 challenges: Just Add Ink #477 and Cardz for Galz #106 – Pretty bows.

I loved this sketch and decided to make a Christmas card with a bow die, some SU DSP and a bit of Wink of Stella for that shimmer. How simple is that?

My last card is for the Just Us Girls #508 – DSP challenge.

I used some SU Magnolia Lane DSP and coloured the flowers red to make them look like poinsettias. The sentiment is a digital one from The Ton.

well that’s it for now. Thanks for looking and have a great day.

Hello there and thanks for visiting.

My card today is for the Time Out Challenges # 145 – Breast Cancer Awareness. One of my really close friends was diagnosed with breast cancer 2 years ago. She had the surgery then radiation and chemotherapy. So far 1.5 years on and she’s still clear. She is an inspiration how she’s tackled this disease and her joy for life and positivity is what we all should aspire to.

I used a sentiment from CAS-ual Fridays called ‘Supercalifragilistic’, some alcohol inks and a bit of Nuvo flakes.

Thanks for looking and have a great day.

Hello there, it’s time for another Watercooler Wednesday Challenge and Dawn is our host with a Feminine Anything Goes challenge this week!

I created another ink smooshed background with my Kaleidacolor ‘vineyard’ ink pad. The floral stamps and sentiment are from Dina Wakley Media ‘Good Idea’.

Come join in the fun and make a feminine card. Check out the projects that the other artists at Watercooler Wednesday Challenges have created, take the challenge and link your creation to the challenge post.
