Jeu de l’Avent 2021 – 04

Hello everyone!

Next up today is the card I made for Day 4 of Simply Graphic’s advent challenge!

A really interesting challenge – to CASE an older summery card by Cecile and convert it into a wintery card! I used a couple of SG dies and mirror cardstock for my take. The sentiment is from a Penny Black set as I don’t have any Simply Graphic stamp sets.

Thanks for stopping by!

Jeu de l’Avent 2021 – 19

Hello everyone!

First up today is the card I made for Day 19 of Simply Graphic’s advent challenge!

You know how I love a good sketch challenge and this one was particularly interesting because the sentiment was placed above the images! I loved Cecile’s interpretation and decided to stamp three blocks of colour to ground my images. I added a few die cuts and a New Year’s sentiment.

Thanks for stopping by!

Jeu de l’Avent 2021 – 15

 

Hello everyone!

Next up today is the card I made for Day 15 of Simply Graphic’s advent challenge!

Another colour combo challenge! The palette was shades of blue and brown plus either gold or copper. I rarely use copper so I pulled out my old pearlescent cardstock an got to work! I loved all the different textures in the challenge graphic so I tried to replicate it by using different cardstocks in my card. I used one of my favourite dies from Simply Graphic – unfortunately it doesn’t cut very well at top so I rarely use it. The sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp as I don’t have any Simply Graphic sentiments.

Hello everyone!

First up today is the card I made for Day 8 of Simply Graphic’s advent challenge!

A colour combo challenge – always one of my favourites. The palette was kraft, black, white and either gold or silver. I’d usually choose gold but decided to step away from my go-to combo and use silver instead. I used a lovely star stem from Simply Graphic – super simple and CAS but it will be perfect for the recipient I have in mind for this! The sentiment is from an old Clearly Besotted set as I don’t have any Simply Graphic stamp sets.

Jeu de l’Avent 2021 – 11

Hello everyone!

Today I created another card for Simply Graphic’s advent challenge!

This time, I chose the moodboard for Day 11. I was particularly drawn to the vase and the red ornaments on the window sill as well as the yellow glow from the candles. I used a Simply Graphic festive berry die with dies from their non-festive vase set. The sentiment is from an old Clearly Besotted set as I don’t have any Simply Graphic stamp sets.

Jeu de l’Avent 2021 – 03

Hello everyone!

Today I’m finally playing along with Simply Graphic’s advent challenge!

I discovered Simply Graphic a few years ago and fell for their dies – they are so delicate and unique! I’ve been watching the daily challenges on Instagram and hoped I would have time to play along – and today was that day! I’m not sure that I will be able to do many of the 24 challenges, but hopefully I will complete at least 12… we’ll see!

To start with, I chose the sketch from Day 3. This card uses an older polar bear die and a fun tree die from Simply Graphic. I added a Penny Black sentiment because I don’t have any Simply Graphic stamps.

Thanks for stopping by!
