Funky Flowers


Hello and welcome

Today's card was inspired by a video I watched by Gerry Van Der Velden. I have followed her instructions to make my background using distress oxides and a brayer. I then did my own thing by stamping with Stampers Anonymous word stamp through a stencil. I then stamped with these delightful flowers by Jofy and stamped again on scrap paper. I used the following Promarkers to colour the flower heads which are fussy cut and adhered 
C446 Marine
C426 Verdigris
C719 Pastel Blue
G956 Ocean Teal
I have added some cute buttons and also layered my sentiment with foam tape.

Favourite!


Hello and welcome back
Today's card was an experiment using paint and a brayer for the background. I made four while I had the equipment out, so you will see some more cards coming soon! I added some drops of water and some pearl embossing powder. This was a technique that I watched by Sara Naumann on her YouTube channel, but of course mine turned out a little differently. I stamped my flower with Brilliance 'pearlescent sky blue' and cut it out with my Scan and Cut. I added some diecut leaves and also some micro beads in the centre of the flower. This stamp is an old favourite that I have had a number of years

one for the guys!


Hi everyone
There are a few challenges at the moment for guy's cards, so here is my entry.
Stamped and coloured with copics and promarkers and cut out with a die from Stamplorations. I always have to adjust this to fit our size cards, as they are different from American sizes. I then layered onto a dark green card base.

Buttons and Bows


Hello and welcome

Today's card is for the Allsorts challenge, which is to use buttons and bows.
I cut a piece of DP and a matching plain colour which I used my scallop punch on. Layered onto white card and added a ribbon and buttons. I am not sure who the sentiment is by

Love



Welcome

I have made today's card for the challenge at UnstampaBelles where the option is stencils and spray. I created the background using Dylusions Shimmer sprays in 'Postbox red' and 'Pure Sunshine', and then oversprayed with Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist 'Iridescent gold'. I the used 'worn lipstick' DI and my new makeup brush(life changing for me) to colour the background as the white was too stark  I took an extra photo to try and show the gorgeous colours and shine.
I punched out a dragonfly twice, painted it gold and also painted the chipboard word as well. All layered onto a black card base

Sketch


Welcome
Today's card has somehow managed to scan on an angle, it is not really crooked like that.
I have made this using the Tuesday Morning Sketches challenge. My base card is kraft and have layered a small check dp on top. My flags are also cut from dp and the image is from a set of stickers that I won recently from Stamplorations. (Thanks Shery)
other challenges
Stamplorations - neverending a/g
