Best Wishes

 

Welcome back

I am quite disappointed with the result of this scan, it looks so much better IRL

I have used the same die again as in my last post, which was a freebie with a magazine, and loosely followed the directions from there .

I used a white card base, a diecut rectangle frame, and a piece of dp for my background. I also added a silver peeloff to finish

Hello again

To make the background for today's card, I first swiped Broken China and Peeled Paint distress inks onto an acrylic block and spritzed with water. Then pressed onto a piece of watercolour card. When it was dry, I trimmed it and layered it onto black card stock, and then onto my card base.

I used my Misti to stamp the words, and added the diecut flower panel and 3 red heart sequins. Unfortunately they show black in the scan!

Hi everyone

Seeing that it is Valentine month, I thought I would make this card with a cute pair of cats that I have had for too many years that I care to remember!

I used a heart stencil (unknown) on my background, and then stamped and embossed the 2 cats on a scrap of black card

They were then fussy cut and attached over the hearts, and a little gold paint added to the eyes

Finished off with a couple of peel-offs and then attached to my black base card

Hi everyone, I hope you are all keeping well and safe

Today's card features a Paper Artsy stamp that I have had for a few years. I had to buy it when I saw Leandra demonstrate it when she visited New Zealand

I stamped it twice with my Misti, so that I could fussy cut the butterfly and layer it

After colouring in shades of orange, I layered it with mounting tape and also added gold micro beads to the body. The flowers were lightly coloured too.

I trimmed down to a square and distressed  the edges before  attaching to the base card. A strip of Washi tape finished the bottom nicely matching the gold and orange

Welcome back

Today's card features a cat from an Indigo Blu set that I have had for quite some time.

I stamped him on a scrap and coloured with markers - one of my favourite combo's of  Promarkers, pastel yellow, summer sun, and tulip yellow, and copic ciao Y38. I love how I can graduate the colours on this stripey cat!

I layered him onto a diecut stitched circle of white scrap, and then onto my yellow embossed background (Craft Concepts 'sun rays')

The sentiment is from a set by The Ink Road Stamps

Hi, and welcome back

Today's fun card uses one of the very first dies that I bought, many years ago. I decided it needed an outing once again

The background dp has been embossed in my cuttlebug, and the top corners rounded. The folder does not have a name, but it is by Cuttlebug

The cat and mouse were die cut from scraps, as was the 'grass' piece at the bottom.

I did some faux stitching with my Sharpie white paint pen, and attached all to a black card base
