Never Hide your Wings!

Time for our monthly challenge over at

Creative Artiste Mixed Media

 It took several goes to finally create something this month.

Nothing seemed to work out but this came together in the end.

I started my background with some light stencilling,

adding torn dp. I love working with corrugated board so 

that was next then some scrunched thick brown paper.

A tiny white frame was cut to encase my dragonfly.

The top part of the dragonfly was cut ever so carefully with

purple tissue paper, adding a tiny gem. Behind the brown paper

is a strip of dp for added effect.

My go to posca splatters were flicked then some matt wax

Added a cardboard circle and button

with some purple thread.

To finish - an appropriate sentiment.

Attached to thick corrugated cardboard that was also

coloured with wax.

Just a couple of photos...

Head over and check how the Team got creative

and pop yours in the gallery for us to check out.

Thanks for popping in.

Thanks!

It's a Grateful/Thankful Challenge over at Cut it Up Blog 

I went for a simple Thanks.

I was looking for something simple so went searching

in my bits box and found this colourful piece

I knew would work with Tim's Artsy Stems 

cut in white as a contrast to the busy background.

I cut three CUTplorations thanks dies for dimention then

the fourth was shadowed with the same dp I used for a frame.

Added some white splatters to help with the white dies.

Adhered to white card base to complete.

Head over to our blog and check out

Case a DT at Just Us Girls

It's our Case a Designer from the Team this week at Just Us Girls 

and my turn to be your Host.

While I was rummaging through my bits box

I came across this piece that I had heat embossed

in three different colours - bronze, gold and silver

long long ago. An easy card -  picked out a sentiment

die cut it three times in silver for depth,

attached and framed it in silver on to black card base.

Shame the photo doesn't show it's true shine.

Your turn to check out what the Team created

and pick which one you chose to case

and don't forget to mention whose caught your eye

and add to our gallery.

See you there.
