My Sunshine

Hello!

Here is another simple plaid-based card, made with digital paper and image from Gecko Galz.

The background plaid is from the Easter Eggs Mini Digital Paper Pack and was printed onto A6 glossy paper. It was trimmed and mounted onto black card. 

The lovely, chalkboard image is from the Beautiful Words Digital Collage Set.  It was mounted onto a snippet of mustard coloured card and then onto a slightly larger piece of black card. The whole image topper was attached to the card background on foam pads for dimension.

I found a snippet of yellow 'organza' ribbon in my stash and just about managed to wrap it around the front panel and make a bow out of it. A wooden heart-shaped button added the finishing touch.

ATC: Put a Bow on It

Hello. Happy May!



Week 207 at Wicked Wednesday has the theme 'Put a Bow On It". 

I made this ATC:

I used my new Aurora Wings digi stamp Cat in Spring Flowers - one of my prizes from a recent win at Wicked Wednesday! The stamp was printed onto white card and coloured with Spectrum Noir markers. It was attached to a black ATC card.

I made a tiny pink ribbon bow from a snippet of ribbon and added it to the cat's neck.  My intension was to put a tiny bell there as well, but try as I might, I couldn't find the bells anywhere.

Here is my lovely cat, Casey, having a lazy day reading the Sunday magazines. (Yes, Parsnip...I know it's Monday, but it takes him all Sunday just to read the paper!)

Snippets : Bunny Tag Card

This is a tiny card - just 10cm by 10cm.

The snippet I used to make the tag was from an unsuccessful attempt at making a CAS card last week. The card was stamped using inks (Memento Dandelion and Rose Bud) and water in an embossing folder. I  love the way the print turned out - just like watercolour, with the inks blending into one another, but it didn't look right as part of the CAS card.

Patterned paper from Polka Doodles was cut using Scalloped Nesting Square dies. The tag was die cut using an Xcut Large Tag die and this was attached on foam dots. The little rabbit image is from Vera Lane Studio, from a digi set called Hello Spring. It was coloured with Spectrum Noir markers and attached with pop dots. Tiny crystal star gems were added to the tag and it was finished off with a ribbon bow.

Snippets: Watercolour card

Today I made this simple card using a small piece of watercolour paper.

I'd like to enter this at Pixies Snippets Playground for week 218

 

Watercolour paper was stamped and heat embossed with a Hedgehog and Pots Dinkie stamp from LC Designs. Watercolour pencils were used with a water brush to colour the stamped image. The finished piece was mounted on black card, which in turn was mounted onto card passed through a flower-design embossing folder. All was attached with foam strips to a shop-bought greeting card base and the sentiment stamped and mounted. Gel stickers were added.

Thanks for looking!
