June 21 - Music




Hi All,

I have been missing for the past couple of weeks. I am back and hope to keep on track now.

For this week's challenge over at Incy Wincy Challenge Blog we have 'Music' theme. We were to also use image from Aspire To Thrive Children's Charities Inc., charity shop and I have chosen the ukulele and it was pre-coloured for me and is also available un-coloured and is available at:
www.aspiretothrive.com.au/shop/ .

I began with a beige coloured cardstock, which then added a piece of red cardstock just below mid-centre which I outlined with pink metallic pen.
I then added another beige tinge softer paper stock I had on hand and coloured that in with my metallic gold pencil. I taped it down with double sided tape across to give a stand out effect. I also outlined this paper stock with my gold metallic pen.

I then added foam buttons to the ukulele to give 3d effect and cut out some musical symbols to surround the ukulele.

I drew a line of blue metallic pen on the outskirt of the card, as I absolutely love the effect metallic gives to cards. As the theme is 'Music' my sentiment is 'Life Is Music' and I finalised with bling at each of the corners of the card and within the red cardstock also.

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