Time to Post


It's time for a new challenge at Make my Monday and the theme is Numbers.

My card is very much a mans card with lots of numbers in clock form.



The background is an embossing folder which is coloured with distress inks and the clock is die cut. With just some candy dots to finish it was a nice quick card to make.

Rainbow Unicorn


It's time for a little colouring over at Colour Crazy Craft Challenge.

Our Sponsor this time is Kinda Cute and this is one of their images which is part of  set,

I have coloured the image using Polychromo pencils, and I had to make her a little rainbow.


I have used a little floral background paper. Then the panels I have created to look a little rainbow to using distress inks on water colour paper. For a bit of decoration there is a bow, ribbon and some candy dots.  A birthday greeting completes.

Thistles



It's new challenge time over at Crafting with an Attitude.
The theme is always Anything Goes.

And for my inspiration I've been playing Sweet Poppy again.


The background of this card has been using stencil leafy background 2 using distress inks through it. I have then done the Thistles stencil with black paste. I have cut the image into a triptych, The birthday greeting is stamped and I've just added some cotton lace and some gems. I really love Sweet Poppy stuff.

Winter Tag



This post is  so late, but have have not been very well, a lovely seasonal cold. This is my inspiration for this months challenge at Make my Monday, where the theme is animals.

This is a variation on a tag I did a while back just using a different animal.


 It is quite quick to make, using Clarity stamps and some distress ink. The deer has been coloured in with alcohol pens. I have just added some yarns and a die cut snowflake with a pearl in the centre.

Autumn Leaves


Here is my Inspiration for the Autumn Colours challenge over at
Make my Monday challenge.

I've used items from one of my favourite companys Sweet Poppy stencils.
This is the Maple leaf stencil.


I have made the background using distress inks through the stencil and then another layer of ink after the stencil has been removed. Then I have used gold stencil  paste through the stencil and sprinkled glitter over the top. The sentiment is stamped in gold pearlesent ink. This was quite a quick card to make, but really pleased with the end result.
