OUR CRAFTY CORNER #8

Hello again!

A new challenge starts today over at
OUR CRAFTY CORNER
with the theme
ANYTHING GOES 
And our lovely sponsor for this challenge is...

For my inspirationproject for this challenge I used
RORY'S BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION


I used a 6x4 pink base card and layered it with a deeper pink card.
I die cut the coloured image using a rectangle with round corners.
I left it as is with a white background and placed some small flat backed pearls around it.
I used sticky foam pads to adhere the image to the card so the card didnt look 'flat'.
I placed a sentiment in the top left and bottom right corners.


These are the Copics I used to colour the image.

And thats my DT card for this time.
I hope you like it and it will give you some inspiration.

WINTER WONDERLAND - EMBOSSING - WET OR DRY

Hello again!
I seem to be having a busy week blogging this week!
I was honoured a few weeks ago to be asked to join a lovely new DT.
For most of the year it is Christmas based and I just love Xmas!
So how could I refuse!

So today is my very first post for this DT and I hope I do it justice.

The theme is EMBOSSING - WET OR DRY
The sponsor for this challenge is KENNY K STAMPS so huge thank you to them.


I used image SNOWMAN
This is what I did with him....


And I used these Copics to colour him....



I started with a 6x4 red card base. I used a strip of holly paper about 2ins wide and adhered it to the left side. I placed a vintage style winter topper to top right and below that placed an EMBOSSED sentiment..(no pun intended on the sentiment). I placed a some handmade holly on the Snowmans hat band and another piece at the top left.
All in all a very cute card. I love Winter and Christmas!

Please do visit our other DT members blogs for more inspiration.
We look forward to seeing your entries!

JADE'S SPARKLING BUTTERFLIES #16

Good morning!

A new challenge starts today over at
JADE'S SPARKLING BUTTERFLIES
And our lovely sponsor is...
CHING-CHOU KUIK

Here is my inspiration card...I did not use an image for this challenge.


I made this cute Holy Communion Dress Box and Card. You can place a small gift inside the box.
The cutting file is from Silhouette Online Store and it was cut out on my silhouette Cameo.
I cut out some tiny flowers for the front of the dress and slotted ribbon through the holes in the back and front to close the box and tied it in a bow at the front.
I cut a small card 4x4 in the same card, made a small sentiment 'Holy communion' and placed it at the top of the card. In the centre I placed a small chipboard embellishment.
Everything I used came from my stash.

And thats my DT card for this time.
I hope you like it and it will give you some inspiration.
