L is for Little People ( Kid's card)


 Hello and welcome to my blog, a busy day here on the 1st of the month. We begin our new challenge  at Alphabet Challenges with L is for Little People - a Kid's card chosen by Dawn. To see the inspiration created by the design team, please visit the blog. 

I began with a 6" white card, I covered the front of the card with pretty yellow paper from my stash. Using circle dies, I die cut gold Mirri circles for mats for the circles. These are from a Hunkydory kit of Topper Circles. The larger circle is adhered flat. The remainder are raised on 3d foam pads.  I am sure this card will suit many a little girl.

#189 Use colours Red and Green

 


Hello, welcome to my blog, today is a busy day for challenges. Here at Sparkles Christmas Challenges Melissa has chosen, #189 Use Colours Red and Green. To see the inspiration by the design team, please visit the blog. 

I began with a white 6" card. I used a sheet from a Hunkydory Essential paper pad for the background. I added three bookmarks from a Hunkydory Bookmark Toppers - A Magical Season to a gold Mirri mat. I then placed them central on the prepared card. I raised the centre piece on 3d foam pads. The sentiment is also from the same set.

I made a 5" sq. easel card. I covered the base with papers from a Hunkydory Essential paper pad - Paper. I was able to add these to resemble the sheet of paper from the Little Book of Dragonflies. I used 3 sheets to decoupage the dragonfly. I finally added gemstones to the card and to the wings.

Pearly Sparkles #123 Trick or Treat



Hello and welcome to my blog. Today at Pearly Sparkles Magdelene has chosen #123 Trick or Treat . To see the inspiration by the design team, please visit the blog.

I made an octagonal easel card. I used Distress Inks to colour the front, the stamped branches, the house and the ghouls. Splattered water for atomosphere. Glitter touches here and there. Spider's webs, bats and a large pumpkin. All of the stamps, except the branch were old ones from Tandastamps, sadly a company, no longer in business. The branch os from Sheena Douglass- Pinescape stamps. For those who celebrate Halloween, I hope you all have a 'spooky' time and have fun.
