LET'S CRAFT & CREATE #111

Good morning!

A new challenge starts today over at
LETS CRAFT & CREATE

And the prize is
A beautiful embossing folder from Marianne Designs

Here is my inspiration card

I saw this on the blog of a very talented Polish young man named
Mariusz, also known as Scrap Man in the blogger world.
This card is posted with his kind permission...thank you Mariusz!
I love the work of the Polish, always so beatifully made.
Please do visit his blog and see for yourself.
http://scrapkiart.blogspot.co.uk/

So credit really must go to him for this beautiful creation...I merely added a few extras to it.

So I started of with a 6x6 base card turned to make a tent card.
I used the G45 paper pad ONCE UPON A SPRINGTIME.
I am a G45 addict Im afraid lol. This particular pad is ideal for springtime creations.

I cut two pieces of contrasting card, one 5.75x5.75in the other 5.5x5.5.
I placed a chipboard frame in the centre.
Then I fussy cut some flowers and rabbits from the main page and placed them around the edge of the frame, the rabbits I placed more to the centre.
I cut out a piece of card the shape of two chipboard Easter Eggs and adhered one to the back of each egg and put them to the left side, putting them at a slight angle. I placed a small fussy cut bird from the pad between the eggs to give the appearance of it sitting on them.
I cut some of the border from the page I had used and placed one piece across the top and down the left side, the other in the opposite corner. Then I added a sentiment banner at the top.
I placed several flowers and leaves around the bottom of the card and one flower with leaves in the top right corner.

And thats my DT card for this time.

I hope you like it and it will give you some inspiration.

CRAFTING FOR ALL SEASONS #122

Hello again!

Im back with yet another challenge for you.
A new challenge over at
CRAFTING FOR ALL SEASONS
 

And our lovely sponsor is...
SCRAPPERS DELIGHT

Here is my inspiration card

I used the JUST TO SAY CIRCLE digi from Scrappers Delight.
I distressed it with TIM HOLTZ DISTRESS INK colour SPUN SUGAR.
It just toned the white down a little.

I made a 6x4.5in card with the fold at the top. I lined the inside with the first contrasting paper I used on the front. I then layered the front with two slightly smaller mats in contrasting papers, one glittered for the challenge theme. Then I placed two pieces of different sizes on top of the glittered paper and added some flowers, a chipboard embellishment, some string pearls, one green and one pink bow made from crumpled seam binding ribbon, a few leaves and some butterflies cut out from the glittered paper. I added another butterfly to the right of flowers also. I placed the 'THANK YOU' circle sentiment in the bottom right corner.

And thats my DT card for this time.

I hope you like it and it will give you some inspiration.

Please do visit our other DT members to see their fabulous creations too.

Thank you for stopping by today and we look forward to seeing your creations in the challenge.

THE CRAFTY ADDICTS FACEBOOK GROUP CHALLENGE

Good morning!

This is my halfway post for THE CRAFTY ADDICTS FB GROUP challenge.
As a member of ANNABEL'S ALL STARS DT I am here to show you my inspiration card.

And our lovely sponsors for this challenge are...

INKY IMPRESSIONS

  & DI'S DIGI STAMPS

Here is my inspiration card

I used the image WEDDING DAY CIRCLE

I didnt need to colour this image, I just printed it out. I placed this in the top right corner of the card.
I cut out a card on my Silhouette Cameo which I purchased from TINA FITCH
I cut out the three horseshoe layers and embossed the top two.

I layered the horseshoe using double-sided foam pads then 'wrapped' it around the card front fixing it down with double-sided tape.
As it was a wedding themed card I adhered a piece of white card to the inside front to cover up the wrap ends.
I placed two white silk flowers  in the centre of the horseshoe and a white triple bow underneath the flowers. Then in the bottom left corner I placed a chipboard bride & groom.

And thats my DT card for this time.

I hope you like it and it will give you some inspiration.
