Inkspirational Challenges : Layer It

 

Our new challenge at Inkspirational is:


For my DT card I stamped the flowers and cut them out by hand. They look uncoloured, but I did actually add some pale grey shading. Then I layered them over a scrap of patterned paper. The sentiment was stamped and layered on top.

A Couple of Gate Folds

 


I made a couple of gate fold cards, using my Silhouette electronic die-cutter. For the first, I used an SVG file gate fold design, just choosing the spotted paper and embossing the flower middle. I inked the edges of the flower , which gives it more of a dimensional effect.

Allsorts patterned papers 



For the second card, I used the same base, but found a snowflake svg that I split into half and cut from glitter card. Then I added pearls and a stamped sentiment.

Inkspirational Challenges - Seasonal

 


Our new challenge at Inkspirational is:


I chose to make a Christmas card using two stamp sets : the mice and sentiments are Lawn Fawn and the bunnies are MFT. The ice has glitter pen all over it, so is much shinier in real life.

Inkspirational Challenges - Headwear


 Our new challenge at Inkspirational is:


Sometimes I ponder on our challenges for weeks, but this time I thought - I'm just going to use an image with someone wearing a hat! I found this image in my bits bag - I honestly can't remember whether it's a printed digi or something I (or someone else) has previously stamped. I coloured her with Promarkers and cut her out and used die cut trees and patterned paper for the background. (There's also some glittery highlights but they don't show up in the photo.)
