Something Beginning With Z

Hi everyone, thanks for your visit, I welcome any comments.

Today sees the start of our new weekly challenge at Cardz 4 Guyz. 

It being the 5th Tuesday in the month we are continuing with our

Something Beginning series and Amy has chosen the letter Z.

Wow, not that many words in the dictionary for Z but without

any collaboration at all, the DT have each come up with something

different. so please do pop over to check them out. 

My choice for the letter Z was ZANY - I wanted something

suitable for a teenager, so got out my inks and played.

I so enjoy these messy moments in craft.

I sprayed several colours onto the square piece of white card.

I then stamped the background. Later adding a stamped image 

of a skateboarder. All of the stamps are from Just For Men

by Crafter's Companion.

Matted onto black card and added to a red square card. 

Have fun with your Z card.

Graduation

Hi everyone, thanks for your visit.  Today at Make My Monday

our new challenge for the next seven days will be 

'Graduation'

Please pop over to see the creations from the Design Team.

I have made a fairly simple and straightforward card, which

I feel would be suitable for either gender,

Black card,  soft gold shimmery card, embossed with a 

vines Embossing Folder.  I found a template on Pinterest for 

the mortarboard, rolled some paper, wrapped in red ribbon

for a certificate.  The sentiment - Congratulations -

is a Papermania stamp. 

G is for Girlie

Hello, thanks for your visit to my blog. Today at 

Alphabet Challenges our challenge if for the letter G

GIRLIE

So much to choose from that fits this challenge. 

Please take a look at the DT's Gallery 

For my card, I have chosen bottles of perfume, pearls and glitter.

All of my papers and decoupaged image are from a paper pack

from Do Crafts - Bellisima. It is an old one, but they are all still beautiful.

I added some non shed glitter card for the corner and oval die cuts,

as well as the main background. All of the crystal glitter on the 

bottles of perfume sadly don't show well on the photo. 

Vintage or Shabby Chic

Hello everyone, thanks for your visit. Today sees the 

beginning of a two week challenge at Cardz 4 Galz.

Aly from the Netherlands has chosen for us

Vintage or Shabby Chic

Please pop over to the blog to check out the wonderful

creations from the Design Team.

I chose Shabby Chic, I love to distress the edges with my scissors, 

I do have one of those little tools designed for the purpose, but for me

it's too neat, no, I like to get my scissors to the edges.

Papers are from Do Crafts Bellisima pack.

The image is a StudioLight Romantic Image.

All embellishments are from my stash.

3 of the small flowers are air dry clay flowers.

Colour Combo at Ruby's Rainbow

Hi, thanks for popping by. We have a Colour Combo for the

next two weeks at Ruby's Rainbow. 

RED, GREEN, WHITE OR CREAM.

Please pop over to the blog to check out the DT Gallery.

First thoughts of these colours for me was Christmas, then

I thought NO, challenge yourself to do something totally 

Non -Christmas. 

I firstly made an ATC for the topper. I then used the colours for

the remainder of my card. 

All stamps and papers from my stash, many being left over pieces.

Have fun with the colours and please pop back again. 

It's Hip To Be Square

Hello, today being Tuesday is of course on my calendar the day

we start a new challenge at Cardz 4 Guyz. 

Our thanks to Jane who has chosen for us

It's Hip To Be Square -

Square Cards Only

Please pop to the blog to see the wonderful variety of square 

cards from the Design Team.

I must be honest and say, I mostly make square cards, so this wasn't 

really a challenge for me, other than I have used a new stamp.

I really should step out of my comfort zone and start making different

shaped cards. until then here are some details of my card.

A square scallop edged card. All papers matted onto cream card.

All papers are from a paper pad from LOTV - Beach Bliss

The stamp used is by Sweet Dixies stamps - Lighthouse.

Stamped with Chipped Sapphire DI - TH. Blended edges with

same ink. Twine added. The small For You stamp is from a 

Spellbinders Garden Collection set.

Hi to my visitors, today being Monday it is time again for our

weekly challenge at Make My Monday.

We would like to see anything you wish as long as it

is  In The Garden.

Please check out the blog and take a look at the DT creations.

I chose another of my octagon carads, I stamped around

the edges with Peeled paint and a small foilage stamp.

The main image is A Gardener from Flippen Women by La Pashe.
