Birthday cats


Hi everyone and welcome to my new followers, I hope you enjoy your time here

Today's card is a slimline using a panel die that I won from Sue Wilson
I replaced the middle panel so that I could use this spot for the message
My black cats were cut on my Silhouette and the balloons and message are from my peeloff mountain. I am trying hard to use them up!

BYSHC day 3

 


Day 3 today for the BYSH cardmakers.
I decided to combine this with the sketch and colours from MFT

I used a lime coloured base card and raided my scrapbox for the two stripes, the oval and the pink poinsettia, and of course a peeloff too

MFT colour challenge #175 Limelight, Lemon Chiffon, Ripe Raspberry, and Cotton Candy.

BYSHC day2


 My card for BYSHC day 2. Mostly made from Christmas papers and some tiny white
 snowflakes added



Christmas robins

 


Welcome back
Today's card uses a technique that I was reminded of recently, using a paper napkin
I cut the birds from another piece and layered them with mounting tape for dimension. I then matted with gold card and adhered to a white card base. Quite pleased with the result. 
This is for my husbands elderly relative who is in a care home

Winter Illusion

 


Hello and welcome to a windy Friday. It is a good day to be inside playing in the craft room
After seeing Dawn's card using winter illusion EP, it reminded me that I had some as well. It has such a pretty effect in the light. With this photo I tried to capture both the pink and the turquoise
I first embossed my black card using a Craft Concept EF and then applied Versamark to the flat area. Added the EP and heat set. The sentiment is cut from white card using my Cameo Silhouette.
I diecut the rectangle and adhered to a white card base

Challenges
Paperbabe #154 - a/g
TTCRD - a/g
Lets Squash It #13 - double emboss

Hedgehog Joy

 

Hello and Welcome

Today's card features a very old Penny Black stamp called Hedgehog Joy, I am not sure if it is still available
I have coloured with my copics and punched out a number of leaves from a multi-coloured DP, which I then adhered over the flowers
The background was an experiment in using up the ink inside gel pens which would no longer write, and then some dried marigold DI sponged over in places. I was quite pleased how this turned out.
I used letter peeloffs to make the word 'happy' because this is what the hedgie feels playing in the autumn leaves!
Challenges

We Love Chocolate Baroque - Anything Autumn
Country View Challenges - Autumnal Colours
Penny Black Saturday Challenge - a/g with colour option (I used the yellow orange and green shades)
