Spring @ MAWTT

So we have a new challenge starting today at MAWTT and it is hosted by the lovely Judith, who has chosen the theme of That Spring Feeling.

I have created this card using the paper pad I won, from The Paper Boutique (I think it is called Secret Romance, but it is currently buried!). It is our Aunty Heathers 60th Birthday, so I combined some foiled peel-offs to create a luxury card.

I also added some washi tape down the side of the patterned paper.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

dragonflydreams - include an animal

ThePaperPlayers #436 Plaid or check (I chose a loose plaid pattern of washi tape)

Steaming Along

Hiya everybody,

We have been having a change around between the spare bedroom and my craft room, so I am limited as to what I can access at the moment (nothing new as my craft room looked like a bomb had gone off anyway!). So I decided to use my Hunkydory Little Book of...Train, Planes and Automobiles.

I used one of my pastel polka dot card bases. I die-cut a train image with a Marianne die to make it a little more fancy. To finish I simply added a peel off sentiment.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Cascading Hearts @ Creative Moments

Hi guys,

We had a new challenge start today over at Creative Moments, sponsored by Eureka Stamps.

 

I have used their Cascading Hearts image for my card.

I coloured the image using my new Chameleon colour tones pens (as you can see I am still getting used to them :D). I then die-cut using scalloped circle X-cut dies. I also die-cut a piece of gold pearlescent paper using the next size up. I added these to a colour explosion base card and finished with some peel-offs.

I would like to enter this card int the following challenges:

SimplyCreateToo #148 Anything Goes

Avenue 613 #220 Anniversary/Wedding

CASology #337 Burst

CRAFT #508 Inspired by a song (my heart will go on)

Thanks for looking and we cannot wait to see your creations,

Ombre Baubles

Hi guys,

I have a CAS Christmas card to share with you today, playing with my Chameleon pens again :)

So I used my Colour Tones Green with the Colour Tops Green/Yellow to make an ombre coloured bauble - stamped from a free stamp set. I used gold paint on the top of the bauble. I think I maybe needed to infuse the pen a little more with the second green - what are your opinions?

Finally I added a peel-off sentiment.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Christmas@SweetStampin' - Include some stamping

ABC Christmas - H for Hang it up

Spring @ Aud Sentiments

Hi guys,

We have a new challenge at Aud Sentiments today with the theme of Spring or Easter. Now we are looking for a Spring/Easter sentiment - but I am a bit of a nonce and did a spring card for an Eastertime birthday, and didn't realise that my sentiment was not Easter or Spring related until after I had made the card :/ Who let me be on the DT anyway?

So our sponsor for this challenge is Bugaboo Stamps and I have used Floral Corner for my card.

I coloured the image using WHSmith watercolour pencils and then die-cut with M&C stitched square die. I then simply added to a spring green card blank and used black peel-off stickers for the sentiment.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

CCM #230 That special someone

The Card Concept #112 Cottage Florals

 

TheMaleRoom #108 Spring

 AYLI - Fav colouring medium (if I want to use pencils for a more delicate effect I always go for my watercolours)

IkesWorld #119 D for Die-cuts

craftingbydesign - Anything Goes

I can't wait to see what you guys come up with - I am sure you can do better than me :)

Make it square @ I Love Promarkers

Hi guys,

Well the weather yesterday was a little bit of everything. Nice sunshine, then a bit of a breeze and a bit of cloud, suddenly hailstones are falling, then it is wet and windy! Typical UK springtime then lol.

We have a new challenge starting over at I Love Promarkers, and the optional theme is Something Square. Our sponsor for this challenge is Knitty Kitty and I have used Purrfect Mum .

I coloured the image with Promarkers - Daffodil Bloom, Summer Sun, Caramel, Tawny Owl, Pale Pink and Plum Preserve.

I couldn't cut the image into a square, so just cut as close as possible. I added a piece of stonechip patterned paper offset to the image, on top of a purple tie-dye effect patterned paper. A square 6x6 card blank was used for the base.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

PFP #487 Make it cute

DaringCardmakers - A special lady

Simon Says Wednesday - Animal Antics

CCM #230 That special someone

Alphabet Challenge - A for animals

MTTC #393 Mother's Day/For a female

SUYP #41 Furrything Goes

 

We can't wait to see what you create this time,

Wedding focus

Hi there,

I have actually managed to do another page in my wedding photo album!

The book is made of Kraft card. I tore a piece of pearlescent gold paper to use as the background. I printed the photo in both colour and monochrome so that I could have an accent panel. I layered this onto a deep green, to match the green of the inside of the jacket. I then layered washi tape and gold peel off border over the ripped panel before adding the photo panel. Finally I added a few peel-off sentiments.

I would like to enter this page into the following challenges:

ColorMyHeart - Tic-Tac-Toe (Ivy, Gold, Charcoal)

CCM #230 That special someone

MMM #93 Something humorous (the pose is definitely that)

Thanks for taking the time to look - I will leave you with a couple of pictures:
