One of a Kind!

Our New Challenge over at The Sisterhood of Crafters

is a favourite of all crafters - FLOWERS!

The Thistle is my favourite flower and I do love

a nice thistle stamp like the one I have used above.

It's from AALL&Create - One of a Kind.

I wanted to keep it CAS and not colour the flower

but make a background to highlight it

using Lindy's Magical's and some stamping.

Finished with some posca splatters and doodling.

My team mates have created beautiful floral cards

for your inspiration so head over and check them out

and add yours to our gallery.

Thanks for visiting.

 

I'm Excited to tell you....

 Hello and Welcome. I have some exciting and Happy News today.

I have been invited to join the Talented Designers over at

The Sisterhood of Crafters

Here is my first card using our Theme - 

Mellow Yellow (use yellow)

I started by heat embossing and colouring my flower

(SU Bloom with Hope) with Lindy's Sprays/Powders

 and Nuvo Shimmer Powders then fuzzy cut it.

 Added some stamping to the background

from SU  Timeless Textures.

Added die cut Geo Floral Frame by Sizzix 

and leaves by Fancy That Leafy Swirls.

Sentiment  is SU Because I Care die cut from MFT

and heat embossed.

Thought it appropriate to use the 'thank you' 

in appreciation of being invited to join The Sistahs!

Popped on white card base to finish.

Pop over and see what my new 'Sistahs' created

and be sure to create something mellow yellow

and add to the Gallery.

A Threefer of Tag Treats for Creative Artiste

 Hello and Welcome to my playtime for

Creative Artiste Mixed Media

I wasn't sure what I wanted to make this time

and decided to get out my gel plate for some backgrounds. 

I cut out three tags using heavy watercolour paper.

The effect I was looking for with the gel plate didn't happen

 as I found a few of my TH Oxide inks 

didn't cover the way I wanted

so added some Magical Powders and Lindy's Sprays

 for a more covered background.

Then the next day I cut out 3 more tags

and tried again. I then had six tags to play with

to see which ones would get the final touch.

I used so many different products and will try my best

to name most of them.
