A Sketch

Hi everyone, something different for the challenge for

the next two weeks at Cardz 4 Guyz. Julie has provided 

this interesting sketch, you can tip it, flip it, but we do need to see 

the same design, in some orientation.

Please pop over to see what the Design Team came up with.

For my card, I first created the three circles using dies.

I stamped the fish onto paper from a paper pad from

The Works - Trendy Blue Lifestyle. 

The gold fish stamps are from a set in my stash-source unknown.

The Angel fish are by All Nigh Media

Coloured with Promarkers and Crafter's Companion Glitter Pens.

Matted onto dark blue card for contrast. 

Thanks for your visit and any comments you may leave.

Monochromatic

Hello, how are you? Thanks for your visit. Today we begin a
new two weekly challenge at My Time To Craft.  Mags has chosen
Monochromatic
Please check out the wonderful inspiration from the DT.
Based on a white scallop edge card, I used pink papers from
a paper pad from The Works - Whimsical Pastels.
the stamp is from Imagination Crafts - A Decoupage Butterfly.
I stamped the image 3 times, trimming and piling up the 3 pieces with
foam pads. On the background I stamped the sprig of leaves
from the same stamp set. The greeting stamp is by Crafter's Companions.
You can't see the Sparkles Pink glitter on I used on the wings, which is a shame.
Gem stones added.

Messy Backgrounds

For my 7" sq card, I created a colourful background with 

Distress Inks, blended with water drops added.
The large stamp is by Woodware stamps - Paris Collage.

Matted and layered onto orange and black card.

 I have used my bought scalloped Kraft card, matted it with blue, 

then white card. Pale blue gingham paper from my stash Kraft card,

 white card to matt on my main stamped image. 

The gorgeous stamp is  from Woodware Stamps. I have coloured it 

with pencils, for a softer finish. 

Added 3 blue threaded buttons to embellish. 

This stamp could be used of course as easily for a girl with different colouring.

challenge at Cardz 4 Galz.

I used papers from a paper pad from The Range, the stamp

is from Woodware Stamps - Whimsical Flower - Daisy May.

I repeated the stamping to carry out paper piecing of the flower.

The verse will be often used, I am sorry to say. 

Have fun. 

Something Beginning with 'L'

Hello again, thanks for your visit. Today at Cardz 4 Guyz

our new challenge was chosen by me. Now and again we have a 

Something beginning with a letter challenge, it being close 

to Valentine's Day, I thought of Love, but there are many who 

aren't interested in the 'Love' cards so this helps them to 

choose their own design and purpose fo the card. 

The challenge then is Something Beginning with the Letter 'L'

Please pop over to the blog to see the wonderful artwork

from the Design Team.

If you scoll down I made a card for another challenge 

with this design but a different size.

I made a Kraft card, the red striped background is from a paper

 pad from The Works. The Kraft card from Jelly Bean Crafts.

I embossed the Kraft card in an embossing folder.
The word 'love' is from a £1 die from The Range.

The hearts  are from various heart dies from The Range and The Works.
