Bookworms

Hello,

This week i have quite a few cards to share{yay!} as last week i only had 2 blog posts. My first to share is this card using one of the digi images from the April subscriptions package from Saturated Canary. This is Bookworms.

This was my favorite image out of the subscription pack, it's just so sweet. I created this shabby/ vintage card, something that i dont always associate with SC images, but some look good like that.

I used Anna Marie designs Blissful Cotton papers, all matted on white. I added lace, a heart doily and flowers. My image is coloured with promarkers.

Beautiful Day in Shades of Brown

 

Hello,

I have another Altenew card to share today, featuring the Beautiful day stamps in shades of brown. 

For this card, I used the Altenew Brown inks, the Beautiful day stamp set and leaves to create the background from the vintage roses set. I also used a piece of vellum and added a gold sentiment. The outlines of my leaves and flowers were stamped with a gold ink.

Altenew: For You

Hello,

Today i have a card i have made for the Altenew Monthly challenge which as always is a photo/colour inspiration.

I have sprayed the background of my card with ink. I use Dylusions ink sprays.

I then stamped my Spring Daisy images in the turqoise, blue and yellow colours and leaves in green then added the For You sentiment which came from the Hydrangea stamp set.

Decades: 60's inspired

 

Hello,

Today I have a card to share that I have made for this months challenge over at lili of the valley, which is to feature a female.

I've been waiting to get my hands on the new decades inspired digi images since they were previewed late last month and I now finally have some! 

My first make using my new images features this 60's themed image. I chose this image because if there was a decade I could visit it would be the sixties, just for the fashion. I  coloured my image with Promarkers. I used Nitwit collections happy too papers all matted on white and created different size circles to echo the pattern on the dress. I added some flowers, dew drops and a sentiment to finish.

 As you like it: favourite card base and why (square) 

My favourite card bases are square because I find a square is the perfect shape to show off embellishments and layers well and lots of stamps fit well on square bases too.

Creative Inspirations: Spring!

 

Hello,

I created an easter card featuring this sweet image from Wee stamps. I dont make many easter cards anymore but i try to make at least one a year. I coloured my digi image with promarkers and used Nitwit collections Friendship too papers, which are great for spring as they features yellows and pinks.

I added ribbon, flowers and a sentiment to finish.
