April Showers Bring May Flowers

Good Morning all,it's Monday again, & time for the brand new 

challenge over at Eureka Stamps, where the theme for this week is

# 192 April Showers Bring May Flowers!

Here's the card I made!

I actually cheated a ittle this week, & used a sentiment which is actually 

an  unmounted stamp, 15521 from QKR Stampede, 

one of Eureka Stamps sister companies.

My card base is 6"x6" Kraft CS, I embossed/debossed a couple of lines 

around the outside to create a frame.

The sentiment has been diecut using a spellbinders square die

then added to the card using foam tape to pop up!

Thr Kraft flowres are from my stash, I punched a few leaves from

Kraft CS & added a natural twine double bow to complete.

I hope you like my little card & I hope you'll be

inspired to join in the challenge this week.

It woud be great to see what you create!

Eighteen Candles

Good morning all!

I'm back with another card!

This one is for my niece who is 18 today

Happy Birthday Katie.

The card base is 8"x8"

The papers are by American Crafts & have been in my stash for ages.

I love how bright & cheerful they are.

The candles were cut using a Tattered Lace die.

They were a real labour of love to cut but I think the end result 

was well worth the effort!

I've added a little sparkle to the flames using a sakura pen.

The Happy Birthday die came from a crafty friends stash clearout so I have

no idea who it's by! I backed it with white cs to make it stand out a bit more.

A few sequins & punched butterflies to further embellish......

et voilà!

Thnks for thevisit!

I hope you like my card!

Angels

Good morning all, it's Monday which means, it's time for the brand new 

challenge over at Eureka Stamps, where this week we have a theme of

#168 Angels

Here's my DT card.

The image I have used is ChristmasAngel Digi 7504

My card is  6x6 inch Linen embossed cardstock.

I added a matt of pearlised gold card from my stash & a layer of 

holly printed vellum also from my stash (it's been there forever).

The image was coloured with my Sakura pens & some promarkers for shading.

I used a spellbinders circle die to cut out the image & a scalloped circle for the gold

mat behind. The ribbon is from my stash, the Noel is a diecut & the snowflakes are punched 

using an Xcut punch. The added gems were also from my stash.

A little side view to show the glitter & shine from the Sakura pens.

Ruby Wedding

Good morning all, I have a card to share with you today!

This is another of the Ruby Wedding Cards I was asked to make

I wasn't given any ideas so had free reign.

I used a Ruby coloured 6"x6" card base & simply added a panel

of white with a punched border & a panel of  ruby  on top.

I made up the sentiment in my Graphics progamme.

The hearts were punched.

A few little gems to finish off.

You can't see it in the photo but I added a large die cut heart

on the inside to write the greeting on!

I hope you like it!

CAS Happy Birthday Dad

Hi everyone,

I'm back with another little card to share with you!

An A5 CAS Birthday card made for my Dad!

Happy Birthday Dad! 

I simply scored, folded & cut my card base from an A3 sheet of cardstock.

The corners were rounded with a woodware punch.

I stamped the sentiment with Impress ink,

Inked through some sequin waste with Black Soot distress ink.

The film strip is a die cut with a Spellbinders die

The letters are die cut & the stars were punched.

The film strip & stars are popped up on foam squares for added dimesion.

Thanks for stopping by!

Spring Fashion at Just Inliked

Good Moning Lovely bloggers!

It's Thursday which means I have some Just Inklined inspiration for you!

This image is Spring Fashion

Such a beautiful vintage image, just perfect for all sorts of occasions!

I haven't added a sentiment as I thought you could use your own imagination

as to which occasion it might suit!

The paper is from my stash. I have no idea where it's from but I have to

say it reminded me of vintage wallpaper. I lightly distressed the edges with a pair of scissors

& inked with Antique Linen Distress ink.

The decorative edge was made using a Martha Stewart Doily edge punch.

I coloured the image with a mix of Flexmarkers & promarkers.

Lol! I did intend adding some tiny pearls to the buttons but looking at the photo's

 I guess I forgot! I might go back & do that later!

The flowers & leaves are from my stash, I've had those flowers forever!

Thanks for dropping in!
