Anything Goes with Sentiment

Our new challenge at Come and Get It is

 

Anything Goes with Sentiment

 

Our sponsor is QKR Stampede and I have chosen to us a sentiment from our Sponsor called Precious Things.

 

It is a lovely sentiment and I have added a Decoupage from Morehead, which is a bunny holding a little angel baby and I think this goes perfectly with the sentiment.

 

I have added some retired paper and ribbon with a little bling and the die cut used is one from the Spellbinders Opulent Ovals set.

 

The cardstock used is Basic Black, Crumb Cake and Pink Pirouette.

 

Here is my card:

 

 

 

Here is a close up of the sweet bunny and angel baby:

 

 

These decoupage images are already die cut and you just need to layer them.  Some of them have many layers but they look so lovely when completed.

 

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Fish

Hello from a very wet cool Sydney.

 

It has been cold here for the past few days and now the rain has been hanging around but the garden is loving it!  I managed to get the roses pruned and some potted colour in the garden in between the down pour, so I am very happy with the rain.

 

But enough about my gardening, let me share with you my card for the new challenge at Come and Get It.

 

The theme is Fish/Fishing and our sponsor is Bugaboo.

 

I have chosen a fun image with a cheeky sentiment for my take on this fish challenge.  The image is called Wiggle the Bait and I have coloured it in with Copic. 

 

The DSP used is a Paper Stack called Moonlight from the new catalogue and the cardstock is Whisper White, Sahara Sand and Express It Blending paper.

 

Here is my card

 

Copics used N0, N2, N4, Y0000, Y000, Y21, Y23, Y26, W00, W1, W3, W5, E0000, E000, E00, E11, E21, E40, E42, E43

 

A fairly CAS creation but I like it.

Red, Ribbon & Roses

Hello and thanks for visiting my blog.

 

I am so excited today to be sharing my first card as a Design Team Member for ABC Challenges.  I am super excited to part of this wonderful team and share with you the details of our challenge for the next two weeks.

 

Our letter is “R” so our theme is Red, Ribbon & Roses and is sponsored by Aurora Wings.

 

Aurora Wings have wonderful images and I have used an image called Dahlia Sprite which has been coloured in with Copic Markers.  The background paper was a recent purchase and the little ribbon roses I found hidden in my embellishment stash.

 

I have used embossed a piece of Crumb Cake cardstock using the one of the designs from the retired Delicate Designs Embossing Folders and die cut it using the Large Scallop Die. The satin ribbon is retired Real Red from my ribbon stash.

 

The image has been die cut using the Ovals Collection and then layered on Real Red cardstock which has been die using a die from the Nestabilities Opulent Ovals die set.  The For You is from a stamp set from Inspired by Stamping, punched out using the Oval Punch and the die a Marianne Die from the Petra Large Oval collection.

 

The layout for my card was inspired by the sketch at Sketch n Stash.

 

 

 

 

 

I just love the music on the paper, although I am not sure of the song.

 

Here is the sketch:

Non-Traditional Christmas

We have a new Challenge over at Holly Jolly which is Non-Traditional Colours.

 

I love non-traditional colours, I think they can look so wonderful and they can be a great surprised when received.

 

Our challenge is hosted by Limited Run and Bugaboo, so there are a few prizes available so we would love you to join us.

 

I have used an image from Limited Run called Catching a Snowflake and the non-traditional colours used were inspired by the paper had in my stash.

 

The layout for my card has been inspired by the current sketch at Sketchy Colors Challenge.

 

Here is my card:

 

 

I have used an Oval Collections Die, the Petra Large Oval Die by Marianne Design, some lace from my stash, the Word Window Punch, some bling and the ribbon is Whisper White Organza Ribbon.

 

You cannot really see it but I have added some glitter too around the trim of the coat and hat.

It’s All about Dies

Our theme this week at Come and Get It is Dies, so as long as you use at least one Die we would love you to share with us!!!

 

Our challenge is sponsored by Oakpond Creations and I have used their fun little image called Crafty Spider.

 

I have not really added much colour too him but I have added some Silver Dazzling Diamonds to the web and the background is a retired Spider Web embossing folder by SU, which is just perfect for this image.

 

The ribbon is retired Very Vanilla Satin Ribbon from my stash and of course I have added some bling.

 

The dies used were from the Ovals Collection and the Spellbinders Nestabilities Beaded Ovals sets.  The “Hello” is from an Inspired by Stamping set called Cute Circles.
