With love

Hi there!

I love this week’s challenge over at Freshly Made Sketches and so here is my entry using a die from Memory Box, papers by my Mind’s Eye and a sentiment from Clearly Besotted.

The colour scheme is the current Less is More challenge, so I’m also entering this card into that challenge!

Thanks for stopping by!

Leave a little sparkle!

Happy Friday!

So, a little story to begin – Wow! Embossing company was a sponsor at Simon Says Create last week and I was so disappointed to miss out on their fabulous, glittery Create It, Take It card. Instead, I bought the stamps and decided I’d make my own version when I got home!

I used a super simple paper technique from Jennifer McGuire instead of loose glitter – far less messy! Papers are by Die Cuts with a View and all dies are by Simon Says Stamp.

I used the colours from this week’s Color Throwdown challenge and will also enter this into the current Simon Says Stamp Flickr challenge (anything goes).

Thanks for stopping by!

Hi Everyone!

I’m back in my craft room after being away and it feels so good!

The theme for this week’s Less is More challenge is ‘shadow’ so I used a shadow/stencilling technique that Shari Carroll shared at Simon Says Create in 2015.

I used SSS fog card as my base and applied SSS Smoke ink over a Tim Holtz stencil and then moved it slightly before applying Lawn Fawn yeti ink. I used SSS banner dies to cut the panel and cut a vellum banner using the same die set, cutting it twice to remove the fishtail portion of the banner.

I cut the MFT Cheers die and three times – once with DCWV glitzy paper (isn’t it fabulous?!) and twice with white cardstock and then stuck them together before adding it to my card. I’m also entering this into the current SSS Flickr challenge –‘anything goes’.

Thanks for stopping by!
