Sparkle for Christmas

 Hi guys,

Our new challenge over at MAWTT started yesterday, with the theme of Sparkle, chosen by Jenny.

Flower focus

 Hi guys,

Our new challenge started today over at I Love Promarkers, with the optional theme of Flowers - a nice easy one for this fortnight. Our sponsor is Sheepski, and I have used one of their single flower images.

I coloured the flower with Promarkers and fussy cut it out. I then used metallic colouring pencils to create the leaves in the background. I left this one without a sentiment as I thought it could be used for various occasions.

Monochrome days

 Well the sky is certainly staying a lovely shade of grey, in keeping with our monochrome twist over at Creative Moments. However, the trees are certainly not with their lovely shades of orange, red and yellow, mixed in with the greens.

Here is my creation, using a Mirtellamente image.

I coloured the images using various shades of pink Promarkers cerise, pastel pink and pink carnation. I then simply cut the image into a rectangle and layered onto a pink base card. I used some border stickers, also in pink, to border the image. I added a bright pink (it does look kinda red on this photo) square, and added a pink glitter peel-off balloon. To finished I added some pink flower and butterfly embellishments.

Shaking Christmas

 Hi guys,

Our challenge is still live for another two weeks over at Creative Moments, with the optional theme of making an interactive card. We do always welcome anything goes creations too.

Here is my reminder card - this time I went for a shaker card.

The image was coloured using Promarkers, then die-cut into a circle. I used a Hunkydory Christmas foiled frame and added acetate to this to create the shaker element. Glitter was added to the centre and thick tape allowed the frame to stand away from the image. Care needs to be taken to ensure that there are no gaps in the adhesive for the frame to work.

Interactive cards

Hi guys,

Our new challenge over at Creative Moments has the optional theme of making your creation interactive.

As you can see I went nice and easy with mine, just making a flap that you open to see the image, however some of the design team have been very creative with their cards. Do pop over to the blog and check them out!

I started by colouring the image with promarkers. I then cut this into a rectangle and then placed this onto a 5x7 base card. I measure the patterned paper and scored the far left to allow the paper to be opened. I then stuck this to the card blank with pink glitter washi tape. To finish I added the excess strip of patterned paper to the left hand side of the card, and birthday stickers to the front.

At the seaside

 It is getting towards the end of summer, and so I decided to make a beach themed card on my day off (as I found some of my beach decoupage).

Patterned floral wreath

 We still have two weeks for you to play along with our challenge over at Creative Moments (and as the weather is getting poor again, what better excuse :) ).

Here is my reminder card for the blog:

The image was precoloured so I simply printed and die-cut into a circle (overlapping thos bits that were outside of the die frame). I used two different patterned paper blocks that I got from The Range previously, turquoise and purple. I then used peel-offs to finish the card.

Three layers to the heart

 Hey guys,

I am still moving house so do not have most of my crafting materials easily to hand. However, I did manage to colour an image from our lovely sponsor All Dressed Up, for the reminder post at Creative Moments.

I coloured this image with Promarkers and will make her into a card as soon as I am back on my feet. In the meantime I hope you find some inspiration over at our blog.
