Deborah has chosen X is for XOXOXO. Love is till in the air for February. To see the design team's inspirational cards, please visit the blog.
My card has a 6" white base card, a mat of silver mirri card. A pink card with silver coloured patternered cards, all from my stash. I die cut the word 'love' and the XOXO. I hope you enjoy the challenge and feel inspired. Best wishes.
My card started with a 6" white card. A pink mat, it is pink, the photo doesn't show how light it is. Sorry. The main image sits on a white and red mat and layer. The image, of Paris, is part of a Rouge Noir Paper Dienamics kit. The right hand side is decoupaged with two layers. The added sentiment is a die cut.
I made a centre stepper card using a template, covered the white card with green patterned paper. A white rectangle card, blended with DI Mowed Lawn was decorated with sport related stamps. The original design was an item in Creative Stamping #92. Included were All Sorts Stamp Set from Hunkydory - Love of Stamps. I stamped each sport item, coloured them with Promarkers, fussy cut them out, then glued them in position. I hope you enjoy looking at the challenge and maybe you have a male person who is shortly going to need a card, male cards are really not difficult to make. Have fun.
Hello and welcome to my blog. Today we begin a new challenge at Sparkles Monthly Challenges. It being my turn, I chose #161 For Men Only. I do hear many folk saying they find male cards difficult, well here is your chance to be inspired and have a go. To see the design team's inspiration, please visit the blog.
For my card, I started with a 5 x 7" card. I cut off just below half way down the front of the card to allow the letters to stand proud of the background. The background has a dark blue mat, the foxy paper is from a 12" sq. paper pad from the Paper Boutique - Whisper of Autumn, along with the stripes on the lower front of the card. I created the letters with my large alphabet dies, with two layers of white card and one of blue paper. The sentiment is also from the paper pad. Happy crafting,
For my card, I began with a 5" sq. white card. Created an aperture with a circle die. The sky and water were made by tearing pieces of different shades of blue paper and card. The fisherman and float were coloured with Promarkers. The design and all of the stamps were included with the Creative Stamping #86 magazine - By the Water set. I hope you enjoy making your 'Water' cards.
For my card I made a Kraft tent folding 6 x 4" card. The background red paper was from The Works, Hearts were die cut from my stash, along with the red thread/cotton. The white card added with 3d foam pads. The sentiment stamp again from my stash. Happy Valentine's Day to all.
