CM Sketch reminder post

 Hi guys,

Here is the reminder post for our challenge at Creative Moments, which has the optional twist of using the sketch.

And here is the sketch - please pop over to the blog for information on the sponsor and prize up for grabs.

I coloured my little house using promarkers and then die-cut with x-cut ovals nesting die. I used patterned papers to follow the sketch and added diamantes for the accents, finishing with a filed die-cut sentiment.

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

CountryView - Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness (toadstools are Autumnal)

Leaves in pink

 Hi all,

We have a new challenge started today over at MAWTT, chosen by Jenny the theme is Trees and/or Leaves.

I have gone for a pink theme for my card:

I stamped the leaves using a pretty colour pink ink pad and then heat embossed with a translucent red embossing powder. To stamp the leaves I masked the two sides of the card to ensure they made a panel in the middle. I then used the same ink and embossing powder to stamp the sentiment onto the label topper. I added the label topper and washi tape topper to the card.

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

TIOT - keep it simple

SimonsaysMonday - Make your own background

Pretty Papers

 Hi All,

We have a new challenge started today over at I Love Promarkers, with an optional them of using patterned papers, which allowed me to use up some of my scrap stash.

I have used Love shack set from our sponsor.

I coloured the image using promarkers then fussy cut. I used two nature themed patterned papers from my scrap stash for the background and then added the image. I then added a dragonfly and a sentiment topper.

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

Christmas in July...what do you mean I'm late??

 Hi guys,

A new challenge started yesterday over at MAWTT with the theme of Anything Goes. As we were still in July while I was making my card I decided to go with Christmas in July. Oh well, it is a bit late going on my blog but there you have it lol.

I used a pre-patterned card with Santa and his sleigh on it. I then simply added a die-cut topper of a robin, and a foiled sentiment die-cut to this base card. I didn't want to over do it, so kept it petty simple.

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

ChristmasCraftCreations - Patterned Paper (base card was pre-patterned)

ABCChristmas - O for old

AYLI - feathers are great for Christmas cards as the Robin is such a Christmas icon

Something cute reminder post

 Hi guys,

You still have until the 10th of this month to enter our challenge over at Creative Moments, where our optional twist is cute.

Our sponsor is Morgans Artworld.

I used an image from them that I had in my stash for a while, but haven't actually had a chance to use yet.

I used paint to colour the image (and stupidly managed to save over the original, so not I do not have an uncoloured version!! I used a postcard type backing card which was already printer with the roses. I then fussy cut my image and added this to the centre. Finally I added butterfly gems.

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

SundayPostcardArt - Visual (there is very little texture but lots of colours and tones)

InspirationStation #35 Animal Kingdom

TIOT - make it feminine

AYLI - fur, feathers or scales (I have many more images with fur than either of the other two - also this made a very feminine postcard)
