WWC231 - Tristan's "All About Occasions" Challenge

Hello, it's Wednesday and that means it's time for a new Watercooler Wednesday Challenge!
This week Tristan is our host with an "All About Occasions" Challenge.

For my card I have used a new stamp set in my collection from MFT called "Sending sweet celebration wishes" by Stacey Yacula.
There are so many cute images in this set, I can see this will get a lot of use from me.  I stamped the bunny in CP Midnight ink and coloured with Alcohol markers.  I cut it out with my scan n cut but forgot to add the border so it cut right up to the edge and therefore I lost the pom pom on the hat!  I stencilled a background using the CP Designs "Swoop" stencil and added the sentiment from the same MFT set.

Less is More Challenge #400

Hello and happy Saturday!  It's time for a new challenge at Less is More and this time our theme is "Small Images".

Our very generous sponsor is Skull and Cross Buns.


For my card today I have used the cute "Trouble in a Tutu" stamp set from Clearly Besotted.  I coloured in the images with Zig brush markers and cut them out with my scan n cut.  I found this film strip die cut in my stash from a crafty visit with my friend Tristan and thought it would be perfect for my dancing hippo's.
I'll add a sentiment to the inside of the card when I decide who the recipient will be!







We would love you to join us!  All you have to do is make a card using small images and link it up to our challenge HERE.  Don't forget we like to see lots of white space on your card.

Thanks for looking and I'll be back again tomorrow!

WWC230 - Kath's Masculine "Anything Goes" Challenge

Hello, it's time for a new challenge at Watercooler Wednesday and this week Kath is our host with a masculine "Anything Goes" challenge.

I've made a friendship card this week using a Penny Black stamp called Friendship.  I watched a You Tube video by Sandy Allnock  the other week and she had used this cute stamp set so of course I purchased it immediately.

I coloured it in with my trusty Prisma pencils.

CAS Mix Up Challenge - July Reminder



Hello, I'm back again as a guest designer for CAS Mix Up Challenge July reminder post.

This time I have used the other half of the alcohol ink background I made for my first card.

I pulled out an old stamp set from Stampin Up called "The earth laughs in flowers" and inked it up with the alcohol lift ink. I stamped it onto the AI piece and rubbed it with my paper towel to reveal the beautiful leafy image.
It's like magic when you rub away at it!
I die cut the Hello from CAS-ual Fridays "Hello Sweet Friend" Fri-Dies in white and black and adhered it directly onto the alcohol piece with liquid glue.  The panel is foam mounted onto a card panel.

Thanks to the CAS Mix Up team for having me!
