Splat Well Soon!

Good Morning all and welcome to another new week.  

So today im sharing more splats and neon.  

A6 white card blank.  I then cut to size white cardstock, layered on die cut splats in neon and then dry embossed with rain drops.  Inked the edges, wrapped with 3 colours of neon ribbon.  Stamped sentiment cut into a stitched oval and inked the edges.  Neon glitter gems to finish.  Making for fun funky get well card for all ages. 

Similar but different, debossed rain drops this time as i put it in the embossing folder the wrong way but it adds another interest i think. 

Items Used:

Justriste sentiment stamps ' CR-03815'

Papermania Neon cardstock, ribbon & gems

Creative expressions raindrop embossing folder

Neon Splat flowers!

 Good Morning to you all.  I hope you are having a good week.  

So today im sharing some fun funky cards using neon and splats.  After looking for something in my stash and came across what i had left of my neon cardstock that papermania did in a range a couple of years ago, it seemed to be shouting out to go with my new splat flower die. 

White A6 cardblank, grey leather effect pattern paper, wrapped with neon ribbon.  I then die cut the splat 4 times, once in white and then again in the pink, orange and green neon, cut up the neon ones and layered onto the white one.  Neon gems to finish. Stamped sentiment die cut into a tag and tied on. 

As i had die cut 3 neon's i had enough for 3 cards. 

On uploading i noticed the stray cat hair in the photo on this one!  With 3 molting cats at the moment those pesky stray hairs get everywhere😊

Make My Monday #46 - sugar & spice

Good Morning everyone and welcome to a new week. 

Its the start of a new challenge over at Make My Monday

The theme this fortnight is SUGAR & SPICE, picked by me this time, so if you fancy joining in just pop over and create something that comes to your mind when you think of sugar and spice, could be sweet and cute, hot and spicy, a mix of both or how about going down the sugar and spice and all things nice, that's what little girls are made of route and a card for a little or not so little girl? 

When i picked the theme i didn't have any ideas of what i would make but on looking through my stash i found a paper pad with the perfect hot warm spicy colours, but broken up with pastel pink and blue which said sugar to me.  So i started with a lovely backing paper which has a brown spicy background and bright flowers. 

5.5x6" card blank, corners rounded. Covered with paper leaving a small border.  Using papers i made up 3 flowers, die cut Sue wilson dies in white linen and a pastel pink paper from the pad and layered together on foam pads with a stamped sentiment. Foliage die cut from a green card that matches the background and the pink paper.  I found these little buttons in my stash that look like sweeties to me so the perfect finishing touch as they picked up on the pink used too.

Scribble Roses CAS cards

Good Morning all and welcome to a new week, they do seem to be flying past.

So today i am sharing my first try out of some scribble rose dies, of course also used brushos and pixie powders again, just love how you can take white card and make your own backgrounds and papers.

I first made A4 sheet of coloured watercolour using a mix of brushos and pixie powders in reds and oranges.  the pixie powders add a lovely pearl shimmer and shine.  I die cut 3 roses into white card and stamped a greeting, backed onto the brusho card and a white card blank, with rounded corners.  I then die cut the middle and smaller roses and layered onto the middle one, with some little leaves and a gem centre.

Similar, just a different sentiment. 

 These have already been snapped up from my charity box so think i will make a few more.

Make My Monday #45 - May flowers

Good Morning everyone, welcome to May. 

I hope you all had a lovely weekend. 

Today is the start of a new challenge over at Make My Monday

The theme for this fortnight is MAY FLOWERS, so if you fancy joining in and to see the rest of the design teams work do pop over.  

As the bluebells are in full flower here at the moment i decided to go with them as my May Flowers.  As well as bluebells i also have white and pink bells in flower at the moment.

To start with i coloured A4 watercolour card with brushos, one with blues, another with greens and the background panel with a very pale blue sky and grass.  I then die cut lots of stems and flowers and shaped them using a ball tool and foam mat.  I then die cut my fairy from white, green and blue brusho card and paper pieced her so that she matches the colours of the flowers.  

Then using spellbinders grand decorative and plain label's 1, I  die cut the card blank and frames from white and blue cardstock.  I mounted the inner white frame die cut on 2 layers of foam so that i had a nice recess to sit the bluebells into.  Computer printed sentiment die cut into shape, silver eyelets added and ribbons and twine added.  Glitter glue highlights to finish.  8x8" in size. 

Close up, i also added vellum behind the fairy wings, she looks to me like she is dancing among the flowers

Another close up.  To build up the depth of flowers i glued a few on and then let them dry, adding them at different heights and angles makes them look fuller and also laying some on top of others.   

Just to show that it does stand up.  

Items used:

Spellbinders grand labels 1 decorative and plain, 

Spellbinders Fairy Cierra S2-103

Memory box 'Arched stems 98842' & 'Fairy flower drops 98844'

Floral Birthday Stepper cards

Good Morning everyone

So today i am sharing a set of floral birthday stepper cards, made using LOTV art pad images and hand made flowers. 

Ive used happy birthday printed cardstock on them all from Ann-Marie, I also decoupaged the images and added glossy accents to the vases and touches of glitter glue.

Little primroses to go with the primroses in the little vases, made using yellow cardstock and orange ink pad, yellow gem centres. 

Hellobore made with a simple die cut flower, i rounded the petals on a foam mat and added green stamens, dots using a coloured pen.  

This is using the same flower die i used for the hellobore but ive shaped it slightly differently, white stamens to pick up on the peonie in the image. 

These sweet peas i had left over from making a project last year, knew they would come in handy one day, made using sizzix susans garden sweet pea die set.  Link at the bottom if you would like to see the sweetpea project i made before

And last but not lease butterflies, i also used a chocolate pearl embossed cardstock on this one, which matched the basket in the image well.  

Items used:

Presscut stepper card die

LOTV art pad images

Sizzix butterfly dies 659971
