 Here's a New Home card I designed and cut with my Silhouette digital cutter.  I stencilled a very light brick pattern onto the green panel. The patterned effect on the lower part of the gold heart is just a reflection...grrr!

Guest Designer - Challenge Up Your Life

 

I'm honoured today to be GD for Challenge Up Your Life, where the theme is ...splatters! 

I stamped a city background with a Hero Arts background stamp. Then I used a set of HA stamps to make a fountain and  mounted it on scraps of patterened paper. Then I splattered everything with gold watercolours. 

Thanks for having me Challenge Up Your Life!

Inkspirational Challenges: Shaped Cards

 

Our new challenge at Inkspirational  is to make a shaped card - something which I love to do (which might be why I chose it!). 

This was a birthday card for my daughter and I used an elctronic cutting file by Furrow and Feather. I feel this kind of crafting is similar to dress-making - if you follow the pattern, you should end up with something very like the original. The creative fun comes in the customisation.  I used some differet colours to the original design and, as her birthday is on Valentine's Day, added heart patterned 'wallpaper' and epoxy hearts to the plant pot and sideboard.

Plants and Triangles

 Lots of fiddly masking for this one! I used plants from a MFT set (coloured with Promarkers and embellished with black and white pens)  and a Tim Holtz stencil.

Bee my Valentine

 

Just for fun, made a bee-themed valentine card using an old Jellypark digi, coloured with Promarkers. I layered two stencils to make the honeycomb heart and printed the sentiment from my computer.
