Guest Designer at Krafty Chicks | Stamp Act

 Hi everyone! I hope you are well?

I'm very excited to be part of the team over at Krafty Chicks as their Guest Designer for the month of December.

The first challenge is STAMP ACT.

I white embossed butterflies from the Penny Black 'Butterfly Trio' set then blended Distress Oxide inks over the panel. I flicked some water and mopped it up with some paper towel. I die cut the sentiment and popped it up with some foam tape. I finished off with some sequins.

Thanks to the amazing team at Krafty Chicks for having me!

Guest Designing for AAA Cards!

I am really honoured to be Guest Designing for the awesome AAA Card Challenge. 

I have made two cards that were made in minutes and used the optional twist of Christmas in July.

Card #1

I emboseed the sentiment (stamped with my MISTI) then used a sponge and distress ink to add colour. A couple of splashes of water and sequins for bling - ta da!

Card #2

I stamped the image and sentiment using my MISTI. I coloured the reindeer with polychromo pencils, then added sequins for bling. This card took a little longer than the first due to colouring the image but it was made in under 20 minutes. 

Thank you to the team for having me!

I would like to enter my cards over at the following challenges -

Card #1 - 12 months of Christmas Link Up (Anything Goes), ABC Christmas Card Challenges (No is for No Fuss)

Card #2 - Christmas Cards All Year Round (Cool it!), Country View Challenge (Do what makes you happy *Colouring), Cards for Kids (Christmas in July)

Thanks for popping in - I hope to see you over at AAA Cards!

Guest Designing for Less Is More

Hi everyone! I am very happy to be Guest Designing for this channge and sponsor for the month at Less Is More.

This challenge is a CASE challenge and the amazing Aileen has a beautiful card to inspire us.

Here is Aileen's card -

Here is my card -

I decided to use the blue colour for my background after embossing my dandelions (from the new release set Dandelion Wishes). I smooshed Turquoise Brusho onto my panel, drying in between smooshing.

I die cut my sentiment out of sliver glitter paper. A few blue sequins finished it off.

Happy Little Stampers is the sponsor this month!

I would like to thank the girls over at Less Is More for having me and I hope to see you over at the challenge blog.

AAA Cards Guest Designer

Hello! I hope you are well and getting lots of crafty time.

Today I am excited to be a part of the new challenge at AAA Cards. Happy Little Stampers is sponsoring and Jane has asked me to be a Guest Designer. Thanks Jane!

Here is the theme for their challenge -

Now with this one, you also have the option to create a shaped card - It could be long and thin, a rounded square, circular, heart shaped, or any other shape you can imagine. Just make sure to keep it LOVE themed and CAS.

Here is my card -

I created my right hand side panel by smooshing scarlet brushos onto a piece of watercolour paper. Once it was dry, I smooshed some perfect pearls to give it that brilliant gold highlight.

Here is another photo without so much sunlight hitting the card -

I die cut the white left hand panel with a border die and did the same with a piece of black cardstock. I wanted just a sliver of black popping out from the edge.

I glued everything together and used some craft foam behind the whole left hand panel (I finally got some Sarah P!). This gives the panel a lot more stability than using strips of foam tape.

I stamped the sentiment and hearts from the HLS Rainy Days set. I coloured the hearts in and covered them with some wink of stella.

Well, I hope to see you over at AAA Cards for their first challenge in February. It will be a great chance to get those lovey dovey cards done for Valentine's.

Thanks for popping in xx

Less Is More - Guest Designer

Hi everyone! Today I am excited to be joining the LIM girls with their new challenge - OMBRE. Happy Little Stampers is sponsoring for the month of January and Sarah was kind enough to offer me a Guest Designer spot :) Thanks for having me!

Here is my card -

I can't say that I have really tried ombre prior to making this card. I started by embossing my sentiments which are from the HLS Simply Said set. I then blended Broken China, Salty Ocean, and Faded Jeans Distress Inks from top to bottom to create the ombre look. I sprayed a little water into my hand and flicked it onto the panel. I've never done that before either! I have seen this technique with the distress inks and flicked water for years so I am glad that I have finally done it!

See you over at Less Is More!

This gorgeous digi is from Mo's Digital Pencil. I looooove the little pooch 'singing' along! lol.

I have coloured the image using Stampin' Write markers and embossed some Crumb Cake cardstock with my snowflake folder. The sentiment is from Inspired by Stamping.

I would love to see you all join in this week. The DT are truly inspiring!!
