ONE STOP CRAFT CHALLENGE 202


Good morning everybody and what a cold morning but there is not a cloud in the sky perfect for a nice walk later on today.Over at one stop craft challenge this week the theme is Halloween and our sponsor for the week is kenny k downloads who gave us some images to play with and the one I chose is called " All That". If you are looking for something different, young and covering all sorts of sports and occasions why not visit their website.
 

Being Halloween I kept the colours to mainly browns and orange of course and designed a halloween party inviite.The papers are Scrapworks Canvas Collection "Citrus Stripe" and the party sentiment was stamped using Inkadinkado "Everyday Expressions". For spooky this was done freehand with glue on some orange fun foam then glittered with bronze glitter.The image was coloured with Promarkers and found this a fun image for colouring.
 
 
Hope you all have a fantastic weekend.
Take care.

FOR YOU



Today I want to share with you a card that I have created using on of the new Spellbinders Die D-Lites "Poppy Patch" which I have cut out from fun foam and then mounted onto some acetate.
 
 
Cut out an apeture on the front of a card using Spellbinders "Octagons" then positioned the acetate with image behind securing with tape and behind that a piece of cream spider web net.
 
 
The sentiment was stamped onto some wooden sticks using Papermania Urban Stamp "Type Print"and then I added to cute little bumble bees.
 
I will be entering this card into the following challenges:

LITTLE SISTER


Mixing two challenges today by taking the sketch from waltzingmouse sketch challenge116 and the colour from cr84fncolor challenge63 which is blues and browns a colour combo I love.
 
 
After putting a checked paper border I covered the cream card with cream spider web netting which is not very clear in the photographs but you can see it in the closeup photo.

 
Using the new Spellbinders dies Resplendent Rectangles for the central framing and also for the tabs at the side I stamped some sentiments with WMS Compact Family in vintage sepia Versafine ink.

 
One of the flowers are of cream lace while the others were created using Crealies die set Creative Flowers CL CF 21 and then added some flat backed beads in the centres.The foliage is using Cheery Lynn Flourish Leaf Strip and the patterened papers are by Scrapworks Papers Canvas Collection.
 

Thanks for stopping by and your comments would be most welcome.
 
Take Care

FOR YOU AT CHRISTMAS


Hello friends and here we are with another christmas card design using traditional red and green with lots of glitter as well.
 
 
For the wrapping paper I stamped this using WMS "Very Vintage Christmas"and then glittered the edges of the leaves and the same design for the tag as well.

 
I then added red ribbon, red bakers twine and red dew drop embellishments to finish this card off.
The layout for this is over at waltzingmouse sketch challenge .

 
I will also be entering this into the challenge at 52christmas card throwdown for their Theme Challenge 9 "Gifts of the Season"
