Love Is In The Air!

Whaaaaaat? It's Monday already???

Where did that weekend go? lol

So, that means it's time for the new challenge at Eureka Stamps

this weeks theme is

# 177- "Love Is In The Air"

I made two cards because I was having so much fun!

I used the lovely image, Digi 14707 (514) Cascading Hearts

This is another of my faves!

If I'm honest, I smudged it the first time I coloured it & printed another,

however, I decided to use both anyway!

 The images were both coloured with my Chameleon pens & I added 

a touch of white using a Sakura Glaze pen.

The base of this card is 6"x6" red cs.

I've used up a lot of stash items on this one!

I added a mat of white paper & the DP which came from a gift wrapping kit I got in IKEA.

I've had it in my stash for a while but haven't used much of it.

The pin has been in my stash forever too, I added some beads,yes I've had them forever

& the red dotted ribbon is from my stash too!

The image is matted on to red CS & popped up on some foam tape.

For this card, I raided my scraps!

The Base is Centura Pearl A6. I added a strip of DP left over from another project,

The lace is a scrap & the butterfly has been kicking about for ages.

I added a few tiny flat backed pearls & some dotty ribbon.

I also added a heart button which was threaded with twine!

It's Simple! Call Me.........

Hello all!

It's time to showcase the June New Releases from The Crafty Pad Designs!

These are in the form of Silhouettes this time!
These have a real vintage feel about them & could be used for cards for male or female

I was given the Table image to work with, but I loved all of these images

so much, I just had to get my hands on more!

In the end, I used the Table, the Telephone & the Chair

Here's my creation

I made a pretty simple Black & White card.

I merged the images in my graphics programme

then added some text. I then printed the image onto 

some linen embossed cardstock.

 I cut out the image using an inverted scalloped nestie

then matted onto a scalloped circle of black cardstock.

The A6 card blank was pre-embossed with spots!

I fixed the image to the card using foam pads to give a bit of dimension

then added a double bow & a stick pin.

A trio of black self adhesive pearls finishes off the card!

Thanks for stopping by, I hope you like my little card!
