Food/Drink

Hello, welcome to my blog, today we begin a new challenge at Make My Monday. Tee has chosen

 #239 Food and or Drink. To see the inspiration from the design team, who the majority have strangely had a fascination with tea cups, please visit the blog. 

I began with  a 7" square scallop edged card. I folded it to make a Z fold card.

The papers and topper are from a CD by The Card Hut - Fabulous Tea and Cakes.

I used both black and purple card  to mat and layer for contrast. 

Jewels and a greeting were added. 

Christmas Florals

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today at Sparkles Monthly challenges we begin a new challenge, Dawn has chosen #182 Christmas Florals. To see the remaining inspiration by the design team, please visit the blog.

 

I began with a red scallop edge card, I added a piece of holly pattterned paper to the card, to provide a background. I then added a sheet of poinsettia flowers in a vase with holly from a Winter Florals Little Book by Hunkydory. The poinsettias were decoupaged using further pages from the book. I added a peel off Christmas greeting sticker. Have fun, I hope to see an entry from you. 

 

Quick and Easy

 Hello and welcome to my blog. Today at Alphabet Challenges Helen has chosen Q is for Quick and Easy. To see more inspiraqtion from the design team, please visit the blog. 

I made a 6 x 4 in light brown card. I used papers from Dreamees Velvet Whisper paper pad, a piece of Hunkydory mat card for the base of the design. I cut, folded back two pieces of the top sheet. Stamped and added a birthday greeting. Finally I cut two butterflies from a paper pad, to add more detail and cunningly hide where the paper was cut. Have fun with your Quick and Easy challenge.

Textures

Hello, welcome to my blog. Today we begin a new two weekly challenge at Cardz 4 Galz. Dawn has chosen #238 Texture. To see the inspiration by the design team, please visit the blog. 

I began with a 6" sq. white card. I added with 3d foam pads a panel of texture, created with an embossing folder. The 3 layers of the flowers were created by using a 3 pce die set of a flower head, by Chloe's design. These were included in a box set of a Chloe's magazine Vol. 13. I coloured them with Promarkers and a brown Spectrum Noir Duo-Colour pencil. The sentiment is from my stash. Take care.

I then added them to the Mirri as the 3 pieces. From another sheet of the gorillas, I cut a piece to be decoupaged in the ccentre onto a piece of Mirri card.

Dragonfly Dreams - Winter Birthday

 

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today we begin a new monthly challenge at Dragonfly Dreams Christine has chosen Winter Birthday. To see the inspiration from the design team, please visit the blog. 

I made an easel card using a 5" white scallop edge card for the base. The main topper of Poinsettias is from a Hunkydory Little Book of Winter Florals. I have decoupaged the upper and lower flowers, adding some gold gems in the centre. The topper is on a gold mat and then a green card for dimension and stability. I added a few sequins and gold gems randomly to the card. The stopper for the easel, is a birthday sentiment by Hunkydory, matted onto green card and raised with 3d foam pads. Have fun and happy crafting.
