Lisa's Lovely Colour Challenge at Just us Girls

 

It's Colour Challenge Time over at

Just us Girls 

and the Lovely Lisa is our Hostess.

Here is the gorgeous photo and colours
she chose for your inspiration.

 



 

I have had this gorgeous paper from Victoria Gardens

for a little while now

and knew it would be ideal

 to match up with this weeks colours.

I backed this with pink and basic card base.

Folded over the double sided paper to show off the flowers

which were stamped and punched with the SU Petite Petal set

and

EK Success small flower die

Leaves from a Sizzix leaf die

Sentiment is from Gina K Designs

Made a small incision to add my ribbon 

and finished with some rhinestones.

***

Don't forget to check out with the other Jugheads created

and this month's Guest Stephanie

then pop your newly made card over to

Just us Girls

You could be our next Chic of the Week

and be in the running for our Guest Spot in April.

 

Hope to see you over there.

 

I Tried Stampin' on Tuesday

 

 

I'm trying a bit of Stampin' on Tuesday

for their Challenge this week which is A Sketch

 

 

and thought I would play my hand at the Bokeh Technique

again which is HOT at present.

I followed the Sketch pretty much but decided to cut

my background into three pieces and then

pop my Floral Image on top.

I used Tim Holtz Peacock Feathers & Aged Mahogany

for the background then sponged from the cut out circles with

Dew Drops Brilliance - Moonlight White.

The lovely stamped flower is from

Stampin' Up - Because I Care Set

and I inked it with both inks to give it a variegated look.

Added the required 3 gems in different colours and

finished with a sentiment from Gina K Designs

and crimped ribbon.

Thank You for stopping by and checking out my latest card.

 

 



A Little Bit of Red at Fashionable Stamping

 

 

One of my favourite Stampin' Up stamp sets is

Feeling Sentimental and I love creating with it.

I found the current challenge over at Fashionable Stamping

was perfect for my card. I have seen several

different ideas of using this stamp on Pinterest

and thought I would do my version of 'Spotlighting'

hence - the touch of RED.

***

I used black & white card stock

then inked my Darkroom Door Postcards stamp

and distressed the edges

 to back my very British Phone Box.

This was matted against the black card stock and image

was cut from Sizzix Fancy Tags.

I cut out a small piece of the second inked image

attached it to the main piece and coloured it with

Tim Holtz Festive Berries pen.

Added a bit of scoring around the edges and on the

sides of the sentiment which is from Gina K Designs

which I thought summed up my card perfectly.

I finished off with touch of Wink of Stella clear pen

on the red part of the phone box.

Some Simple Stamping

I have been dabbling in making some cas cards of late and found

a few challenges I thought fitted perfectly.

 

This card I am entering in the following challenges

As You Like It - Favourite CAS or Fussy and say Why

Addicted to CAS - Challenge #57 Mask It

Red Rubber Designs - Challenge #207 So Sentimental

***

As you can see it is very CAS

I used white and purple card stock

Masking done with Memento Eldenberry & Sweet Plum

Stamp is Perfume by Kaisercraft

Sentiment is from Inspired by Stamping -

Trendy Circle Sentiments

Dabbed a little colour on the white cs.

***

For the As You Like it Challenge I chose CAS

and my reason for this is if you have a single stamp

that packs a punch that is all you need to give it that

'Look at Me' card.

***

I have a few more CAS cards made so you will

see me popping back in again real soon.

Till then Thanks for stopping by.
