May 3 Challenge Anything Goes




Hi All,


We were kindly given images by Squigglefly for this week's challenge. I'm showcasing 'Jonquils' which look very nice and perfect for any occasion. You can visit Squigglefly at: http://www.squigglefly.com/


I began with white cardstock and added a teal shade of backing to it as the first layer.

I had some assistance from Heather in colours for the Jonquils and is very much appreciated and very effective. I found the texture piece to use as the earth from Heather's pile of stock.


I outlined the layer with metallic blue pen and black on the outer edge of the card to help the flowers stand out a little. I finalised with bling on each corner.


I didn't use any sentiment as it can be a card for any occassion.


Please feel free to comment as all feedback is appreciated and gratefully received.

Thank you for visiting my blog.

Debutante - Fancy Fold

Image
Hi All, For this week's challenge at Incy Wincy Challenge Blog is a fancy fold card. I have been so interested in easel cards once I saw them. I decided to use this image that was kindly given to us by Cowgirl Up Stamps, at Stitchy Bear Stamps. http://stitchybearstamps.com/shop/ I began with a yellow tinge cardstock and followed the instructions on how to make an easel card and came to realise they are not that difficult to make. I utilised a program I have been given by Greg on my laptop to colour in the image. The colour of the dress I found to be awesome and so gorgeous. I layered the top of the card with a red paperstock I had on hand and then some textured paper with heart print all over. I then used my pink metallic pen, which I must admit are my favourite colouring mediums, and outlined the thicker hearts to give some effect. I used my gold metallic pen to outline the layers and the outer layer of the card. I had a little trouble with the sentiment but with some help from my...

Naptime Bunny

Hi All, This week we were given this gorgeous bunny for our challenge over at http://incywincydesigns.blogspot.com/ . We are sponsored by Stitchy @ Stitchy Stamps this week www.stitchybearstamps.com/shop/ . I began with white card stock, then found glitter self adhesive paper in purple colour and added that as my first layer. I then added a piece of textured paper to break the glitter up a bit. I then added a lavender colour sheet of paper ontop of the textured layer. Naptime Bunny I used Fireworks to colour in and added it to the lavender colour paper. I made extra copies of Naptime Bunny and decided to 3D the ears and arms and also the legs of the crib to give some effect. I added the sentiment with the help of Greg as I wanted something different than the standard sentiments available. It reads "All I want is a love, but a little chocolate now and then doesn't hurt!". I thought it perfect for this card. I added a couple of eggs in the bottom left corner to give th...
