Christmas in July 2023 – Day 15

Hello everyone!

Welcome to Day 15 of LucieG’s Christmas in July 2023! Today I’m playing along with this week’s Color Throwdown challenge.

This week’s combo is aqua, kraft, gold and cream. I just love the inspiration pic and toyed with bringing in mid-century modern elements, but I really wanted to use the Sizzix Honeycomb Frenzy embossing folder that Broni used on one of her DT cards a few months ago – I rushed online and found said folder which arrived promptly but remained untouched!

So I started with a piece of embossed gold mirror cardstock and went from there. I chose the Snowflake Sprig by Memory Box and the Simon Says Stamp Alicia snowflake plus a My Favorite Things sentiment. I still felt the card needed a little something more so I added a few snowflakes from a Lawn Fawn set and LOTS of shimmery paint splatters!

Thanks for stopping by!

Christmas in July 2023 – Day 6

Hello everyone!

Welcome to Day 6 of LucieG’s Christmas in July 2023!

Today’s card ended up being quite stressful! I had been working on a completely different card, but I realised mid-evening that I really needed more time to play around with it…. but I still needed a card for Day 6…. argh!

In the end I went for this very quick and simple card using two very old Addison Ornament dies by Memory Box and an embossing folder by Spellbinders.

The sentiment is by Mama Elephant.

Peek a boo chick

Happy Easter everyone!

Today I’m playing along with the Simon Says Stamp Monday challenge where the theme is ‘add texture’.

Using a Creative Expressions stencil , I applied texture paste across my card base and added a Memory Box egg and just a peek of the cute Simon says Stamp Peeking Chick die.

The sentiment is also from an older Simon Says Stamp set.

Easter Greetings Chicks

Happy Good Friday!

Well I’m feeling very confused as it has felt like a Saturday to me all day today – nice to have a bonus tomorrow!

Anyway, today I’m playing along with theme challenge at The Paper Players.

As it’s almost Easter, I felt I had to choose either chicks or bunnies for the animal theme – and I ended up using Tim Holtz’s fabulous Colorize Chick die set.

The nest is by Memory Box and I added a Reverse Confetti frame and Pretty Pink Posh sentiment.

Large Happy Easter Egg

Hi there!

It’s been a long time since I played along with a Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge but I was particularly inspired this weekend AND I had time to create so I was able to enter more challenges than usual!

The challenge theme  is Spring and/or Easter – I opted for the latter and made a quick CAS card using a very old Memory Box die, Speckled Egg distress ink and a Spellbinders embossing folder.

I think this would make the perfect Easter card for my dad!

Backyard Floral Egg

Hi there!

Today I’m playing along with the Outside the Box challenge where the theme is floral favourites!

I decided to play with my newest Memory Box die again – the Backyard Floral. I coloured it with distress inks and adhered it to an egg die cut. The embossing folder and sentiment are also by Memory Box.

Thanks for stopping by!
