Something Beginning with the letter S

Sea Shells, Stafish, Sentiment, String and Square card.

Hello again,  this week at Cardz 4 Guyz  we are giving you a break from Easter projects, unless of course you wish to make something for Easter, because you have SO much choice this week. The challenge chosen by Helen is Something beginning with the letter S. Please take a look at the Design Team's inspiration, it is amazing. For my project, I have chosen Sea Shells.  I used a bought   scalloped edged Kraft card, matted with pale blue and then white card. The main image was matted onto Kraft card. For the main image I used a piece of white card,  added and blended several Distress Inks, blues, a little yellow, pale brown. I  heat embossed second generation stamped shells using Gathered Twigs ink and clear embossing powder. I sprinkled and heated to melt, some blue and gold spinkles from Stampendous Frantage powders.  Added twine, tied with a bow securing a starfish charm.  I hope you are thinking of maybe taking up the challenge. See you at C4G. Have fun. Thanks for visiting and for any comments you may leave.

Easter Animals

Hello,  this is my second posting today.  At  MTTC,  My Time To Craft,  for the next week our challenge is Easter Animals - I'm sure you'll have as much fun as the DT have, please pop over and see their amazing projects. For my DT entry, I have created a card, using papers from a Generations paper pad, with some gorgeous fresh spring colours. The main image is 'Happy Easter' from LOTV, coloured with Promarkers and Distress Inks, Tumbled Glass and Mown Lawn.  I love how the rabbits are tearing off the paper to get to the wonderful chocolate Easter egg. The embellishments and greeting are from stash.  To everyone who celebrates, I wish you a very Happy Easter.

Easter

Hello everyone, this is one of two entries for today. I am starting with my DT entry to
Fantasy Stampers where for the next two weeks we will be challenging you to join us with an Easter project. Remember we do accept all forms of paper crafts it does not have to be a card. Please pop over to check out the DT inspiration.  For my card, I used papers from a Generations pad of papers, which are so fresh and springlike.  The main image is from LOTV - Spring Swing, coloured with Promarkers and Distress Ink Tumbled Glass. The flowers and butterfly I made with air dry clay and a Katy Sue mould. The bunting is from a CD - Halycon Days from Crafter's Companions. The letters for Easter are from my stash. Have fun and if it applies to you, a Happy Easter. 

Transport

Silhouette

Good morning, here at My Time To Craft (MTTC) we are asking for Silhouettes for this week's challenge.  The DT have produced a wonderful variety for your inspiration. Here is my inspirational card. The background  was provided by printing a background sheet from The Card Hut's - Fabulous Tea and Cakes. The stamps are from Lavinia stamps, all stamped with Tuxedo Black from Memento.

Cute and Cuddly

Hello, at Alphabet Challenges, for the letter C for the next two weeks we challene you with Cute and Cuddly. Whatever you wish to make, as long as it is Cute and Cuddly. The Design Team have some super ideas for you so please do pop onto the blog.  For my card I am also celebrating Easter. The background papers are from a block of pastel papers I bought for just £1,  what a bargain! The main image is from LOTV coloured with Promarkers, the edges brushed with Mustard Seed DI. The little flowers and leaves I made with air dry clay and a Katy Sue Mould.  Have fun everyone.

Buttons and Bows

For the next two weeks at Ruby's Rainbow the challenge chosen is Buttons and Bows. Plaease pop over to see the wonderful inspirational ideas from the DT.  For my card, I have previously made a CAS card for another challenge, I seem to have remained in the same creative zone. I know I saw a card similar to this recently on Pinterest by Wendy B, so I thank her for the inspiration. A scrap of designer paper, a selection of small  purple buttons and a ribbon bow.  Quick, simple and effective.
