Masculine Card - Valentines/Birthday

Hi Again!

I'm currently having a Give-Away on my Facebook page! I am also in the process of updating My MadeIt store, so pop in for a look :)

I had this card set out in my head for a couple of days, I had the shirt stamped and cut out, just hadn't done anything with them.... here is the card - 

 

I used the MFT stamp and Die-namic set - Masculine Graphic Tee, I stamped and embossed the "Rock On"  in silver embossing powder, and then cut it out using the die.

I used patterned paper from My Minds Eye, and some grosgrain ribbon, some fun buttons from my stash. The embossed piece is just white cardstock, run through my big shot with the Chevron embossing folder, from SU!

I am entering this into two challenges, the first is the sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches, and the Anything Goes Challenge from Simon Says Stamp

Thanks for dropping by! Don't forget to pop over to my Facebook page, and play with the give away!

Scrapbooking Family Photos

Hello Hello! I'm back again with another Scrapbook page to share! I have been feeling unmotivated to do anything as I struggle with some back pain, so to get myself back into crafting, I made a scrapbook page...

This page kind of evolved a lot during the process. I started playing with paint, mixing Kaisercraft White paint with Sea Breeze to get the Turquoise piece which is painted directly onto the Kraft base (My Minds Eye) and then when it was dry, and hadn't quite worked as it should have (in my head at least) I stamped some Chevrons in Versamark and then applied a bunch of White Embossing Powder and heat set it.  I then made a circle doily mask, and sprayed a mix of two Perfect Pearls Mists on top, I used Forever Blue and Turquoise, I then moved my cardstock and let the mists run to the top of the page. I set the page aside to dry, and gathered my embellishments -

I used a transparency from Fancy Pants and added a lace doily on top, made my own Chevron flat cover buttons, added a celtic heart metal charm and a hat pin which I coloured up with a Spectrum Noir Marker to match the colour scheme. I also added some hemp twine, and a tag with a little bit of journaling on it. 

I'm entering this into the Kraft it Up August Sketch challenge -

Some Odd Girl - Sweet Thinkin' Mae

Hi Guys! Another card I made last week that I have to share. But first, have a gorgeous picture of my niece, who we celebrated her first birthday yesterday - she is giving a blow up giraffe a kiss and wearing the owl hat that I got her for her birthday present *SO CUTE!*

Anyway, on with the card.... I have a Sweet Thinkin' Mae card to share with you today!

I stamped the Mae stamp on watercolour paper and also on to some Echo Park - For the Record patterned paper for her bow and dress which I fussy cut and stuck onto the watercolour paper. I coloured her up using my markers and fussy cut her out. I used a black card base, layered up with some white card stock, which I stamped with the Lawn Fawn Chevron Backdrops in black ink (on my biggest acrylic stamp block, I have gotten a black permanent marker and a ruler and drawn straight lines along it 1cm apart to line up pesky stamps like this one, and make stamping straight easier!) and then layered it up with some Satin Single Frill black ribbon. I attached Mae using a whole bunch of Foam mounting tape, I then stamped my sentiment in black Memento ink and added some tiny red rhinestones to finish it off!
Thanks for joining us here, and don't forget you've still got a couple of days to play with our challenge spots this month! 

C.C. Designs and I create a Birthday Card

Hi again! This is my fourth (!) post for today, so scroll down to see the others, including a DT post, and the winner of my Blog Candy! I have a another card to share with you all :)

This is a White card base, layered with Basic Grey, and patterned papers from the Buttercup 6x6 Paper Pad by Lily Bee Designs. I have wrapped some Always Artichoke Denim ribbon around it and added a label with a sentiment (from PTI.) The little fairy has been coloured with my Stampin' Write Markers and had her wings coloured with Versamark and heat embossed with clear, glitter embossing powder. 

I am entering this into a few challenges, the first is the sketch from iSpy Sketches, next up is the Anyone For Anya? Teal Challenge (the chevron striped paper is teal), and then finally, the Ribbon Carousel and Simon Says Stamp both have Anything Goes challenges on. 

Don't forget, my new DT gig went live today, so why not pop over to Feeling Sketchy and join us for some fun?
