ADD SOME GLITTER

Hello it has been a while but just back from a fabulous two weeks holiday in Hong Kong and Singapore.This was the second time we had been and took our daughter along with us who could not get over how clean and beautiful Singapore was and the people so polite and friendly.We visited the wonderful botanical gardens with the largest orchid gardens in the world and now and then will share some of my pictures of these wonderful flowers.

 

Now onto this week's challenge over at OSCC and we want you to add some glitter to your project this week.

Our sponsor for this week is the wonderful milk and coffee which is a cute little digi image shop so do give them a visit.

 

Once again the design team where given some beautiful images to choose from and I chose this one which is called Tiffany Fairy and added glitter to those wonderful wings on her.I do hope you get the chance to play along with this week's challenge as we love seeing all of your creations each week.

 

When we left Singapore it was in the 30's and now back in the UK and I am here with my jumper on and thick socks on my feet and it is MAY can you believe it.

Take care

OSCC 221 - A RECIPE

Hello on this snowy, windy and very cold morning and hard to believe that Easter is next weekend.Anyway good excuse to stay indoors and do some crafting so why not join us at one stop craft challenge this week which is a recipe:

 

1 IMAGE

2 EMBELLISHMENTS

3 DESIGNER PAPERS

 

Our sponsor for this week is the wonderful crafts and me who gave us some beautiful images to play with and I went with this lovely fairy image.I decided this was going to have a lot of embellishments so kept to mainly different shades of blue with white and silver as well.This had started off as a card design but I think I will find a suitable frame for it and make it into a picture for my craft room.

IMAGE - from our wonderful sponsor

EMBELLISHMENTS - Heartfelt Creations dies "Layered Scalloped Posy", Cheery Lynn "Flourish Leaf Strip" and "Fanciful Flourish"

DESIGNER PAPERS - "Papermania Capsule Collection"

also used for this project

THANKS FOR A COLOUR THROWDOWN

Today a card of "thanks" with colours taken from this week's challenge over at color throwdown 234. I had just purchased a new Cheery Lynn die Fanciful Flourish where I have used the part left after cutting out the die and using it as a stencil which I inked through using Adirondack Brights "Hazelnut" to give a lovely soft flourish and then inked over the leaves with Brilliance Archival ink "Peacock" and Waltzingmouse stamp set "Teeny Trees".

 

 

For the tiny flowers these were cut from red card using Heartfelt Creations dies "Layered Scalloped Posy"and finished off with a black gem.This was layered onto another piece of card embossed using Spellbinder's M-Bossabilities ES-001and inked using again the Peacock. A sentiment (Waltzingmouse "Say it Loud") and a trim with ribbon to complete the card.

 

Loved this colour combo and think it works well for this card.

Take care friends.

 

 

 

ANYTHING GOES AT OSCC

Good morning and here we are again for another super challenge and " Anything Goes" at one stop craft challenge. Our wonderful sponsor this week is doctor-digi house of stamps and I got to play with the digi image called "Dunderton Academicals FC" which did make me smile and had no problem on picking the sentiment to go with this which is fron Fiskars clear stamps "Make a Wish Quotes".

 

 

With the image and sentiment in place  I did not want to add too much more with regards to embellishments and being for a gentleman of a certain age thought I would keep it clean looking.

 

If you have time do pop along and visit our sponsor who has a collection of weird  and wonderful odd balls and fantastically freaky weirdos.

 

Take care friends until the next time
