CC No Square

Hello, just a quick post to share with you my card for our new challenge at Creatalicious Challenges.

Our theme as always is Anything Goes with an Optional Twist - No Square or Rectangle

Our Sponsor is The Paper Shelter and they have wonderful digital images.  

I have used one of our sponsors images called Butterfly Whisperer and the image can be coloured but also comes with pre-coloured options so I have decided to showcase the pre-coloured image.

When the image was printed it was fussy cut along with the little butterfly and layered on cardstock.

Here is my card:

The base card shape was created using a Marianne Creatables Die LR0327.

I rounded the colours of some DSP and found the sweet words on another DSP in my draw.

The words read love, smile, dream, happy, create, life, laugh, today, pretty bliss, peace,

joy, bless and then it repeats itself. 

The pearls just added a little bit of embellishment.

The image has been coloured with Copic Markers and then has lots of layers.

Here is my card: 

I have used some paper and flowers from my stash.

I haven't added a sentiment because this card could be for so many occasions and I can add the sentiment to the inside of the card when I need it.

CC No DSP

Hello and welcome,

Just sharing with you a card I created for our new challenge at Creatalicious.

Our theme: Anything Goes with optional no Patterned Paper

Our sponsor: Di's Digi Stamps

I think that adding no patterned papers to your projects can be hard and it took me a while to come up with a design.

In the end I chose a really CAS layout with a little pop of light colour.

Here is my card:

Unfortunately the photo has turned out a little darker than I wanted as the base card used is SU Blackberry Fig which is a dark rich grape colour.

The pop of colour is given with a few leaves and branches which have been stamped in SU Mint Macaron and Tranquil Tide and the stamps are from the SU Abstract Impressions stamp set.

The twine is SU Natures Mint Macaroon Twine.

The sentiment is from the SU Love What You Do Stamp set and have been stamped in Blackberry Bliss ink and layered on a die from the SU Stitched Labels Framelits Die.

Have a super day.

BB Sent with Love

Here is my card:

I have used a sweet fairy from the Penny Black Fairy Sweet collection and coloured the image in with Copic markers.

The sweet sentiment is from the new SU Itty Bitty Greetings stamp set.

The sentiment and the layer underneath have both been punched out.

The beautiful paper I found in my stash from ScrapBerry's Married Bliss.

Here is a close up of the image and sentiment:

The dies used are from the SU Ovals collection and Marianne Design Creatables Anja Circles LR0327.

The cardstock used is SU Blackberry Bliss, Whisper White, Fresh Fig and Xpress It Blending cardstock.
