Something Beginning with F


Hello, thanks for visiting my blog.
Today starts a new weekly challenge at Cardz 4 Guyz.
There being a 5th Tuesday in this month, we have a regular challenge,
Something Beginning with ...........Cyndi for this challenge has chosen 
the letter .........F.
Please pop over to check out the DT, without any discussion, 
the majority seem to have been thinking of the same thing, so come on
show us how it can be more varied, for there are so many other words we 
could have chosen. 
I die cut a circle in my 6" square card. Die cut a circle frame for 
front and back. I sandwiched between the two a piece of acetate.
On the outside, I stamped seaweed and shells using Sheena Douglass
Under the Sea stamps onto coloured paper.
On the die cut white circle from the front of the card I stamped 
a scene with fish. Sorry I bought this at a craft event - source unknown.
I coloured the scene with Promarkers.

 please leave a comment, even if it is just to say Hi.
Today starts a two week challenge at MTTC -
The challenge is Something That Flies
Please do pop over to check out the Design Team's creations.
I blended several bright colours of  Distress Inks to create the
background. Heat dried it,  patted it with anti-static powder. I stamped
the dragonflies with Versamark, heat embossed with gold EP.
Added a swirly stamp and a sentiment. 
Dragonfly stamp is from an Oriental set from The Stampman.

Summer Colours

For my card, I first blended several Disress Inks in Summery colours.

I stamped it again, coloured it with Promarkers, then glued onto the 
card over the first stamped area.  I then added several additonal stamps
from the same set, coloured the bees. 
The sentiment is from Crafter's Companions.

Include a Furry Friend


Hello, welcome to my blog. Today starts a new weekly challenge at
the challenge is Include a Furry Friend.
Please pop over and check out the super creations from the DT.
By the way we have a DT Call - looking for a couple more members.
I know a fox isn't really a Furry Friend,  apologies, he was the 
only furry creature I could find in my stash. Hope it is forgivable.
I used papers from my stash, previously printed from a CD.
The fox papers are from La Pashe - a Trinitage set.
The small image on the front page has 3 layers.
The Trinitage comes about when you open the card.

There are 3 levels supported by folded pieces of card
(look to the left side the edge of one can be spotted). 
Have fun with your Furry Friends.
