On a musical note....

I love this musical digi and it is perfect for this challenge.
I printed it on to some kraft card and lightly watercoloured parts of it. The image was then layered on to a cream card which I ran through my cuttlebug and highlighted it with a Vanilla ink pad. Then tied some crochet cotton around and layered again onto a cream base card.
I am entering it in the following challenges

Simon Says Stamp and Show   ---Layers
The Stampman Challenges    ---Musical
Your Next Stamp    ---Anything Goes

My new stamp

For this card I have used a stamp that I won as part of a prize from  The Stampman. I have mounted it on some lovely old lace from my stash, and decorated it with Prima flowers and pearls.

Max's birthday

I have made this card for Max's birthday - he quite likes playing computer games!!
I am entering it in the challenge at
Donna's Den as they wanted a 3d card. This one has seven layers.

Plain and simple

Unfortunately the scan does not show this up very well. I have used my Penny Black 'birds on wire' stamp and outlined the layer with the same colour.
This is for the challenge over at
Totally Papercrafts where they are looking for plain and simple.

A Joyful Ride

Over at There's Magic In The Air the challenge is to use this delightful digi and also a punch. I have used my scallop punch to make the flower

Inspiration

This is most certainly something very different for me. The challenge over at
Simon Says Stamp and Show   is for something Tim Holtz inspired.
I rescued a piece of corrugated cardboard to use as a base, which I tore bits off. Then used distress inks rubbed in to the card. The wings were an experiment on their own, as I kept adding more paint and embossing powder until I got something that I liked. The flower was made with my new spellbinders scalloped circles, and the watch face came from an old watch that would not work any more. I have yet to figure out a way to hang it.
