Diamonds in the green

Today sees the start of a new challenge at

The Crafty Catz.

Our theme is

Anything Goes

I have used the diamond stencil in two ways on this card. The background has been done in a fan type design using green ink. On the green card the stencil is kept straight using white ink, not to heavy, so only just visible. The floral stamp has been embossed in white. Small brads have been used more as a decorative idea in the corners. The just a die cut happy birthday sentiment.

Stag time

Another month has gone and now we have new challenge from

The Critter Crazy Challenge.

Our theme is to use a critter

and make sure the critter is a focal point of your card.

This is a Clarity stamps make. The background brick wall stencil and the stags head stamp are from Clarity. I think the clock is a Tim Holtz Bigz die. A piece of twine decorate the card then a die cut sentiment complete. A wonderful masculine card I think.
