Washi Goodness

I have a slight addiction to washi tape, just can't get enough of it! Last month, I submitted these two cards to the Paperpoint MT Washi tape contest and guess what? I won $100 worth of washi tape! 

I would like to share a card I made for a magazine submission that was rejected. The good news is that the other card got accepted! Yay! The flowers in this card was made with decorative tape from MME - I love the effect of diecuts on washi tape! I'm submitting this card to Simon Says Stamp's What's Your Favourite challenge - Washi Tapes and Dies of course!

More WCMD2012 cards

Just popping back again with a couple of cards that were rejected by the recent Papercraft submission. I thought I would just submit them to the WCMD2012 challenge before it closes soon. The first card was  based on a sketch as part of the submission. The second card was a monochrome card made with stamping with the one colour. Both cards are below and their details are included. I'm also submitting the second card to Simon Says Stamp's Dies and/or Punches challenge, the current Hero Arts October sketch challenge and the CAS challenge at A Blog Named Hero. Thanks for dropping by!

Lil's Birthday

After going to the Paperific Expo yesterday, I was dying to come home to make more cards. The creative juices are on overdrive and need to release them by making some cards! I have a male and a female birthday card to post. The male one will be posted after Monday just in case he snoops.... The female card first. I've recently purchased the MFT Die-Namics mini roses die. I had a few failed attempts at making them. The paper ones had too much of a gap in the middle but the felt ones turned out great. I attended a Paper Flower Frenzy class at Paperific yesterday and learned about spraying paper flowers and also making curled flowers. The secret is getting a flower making tool (quilling tool). I got home and tried the tool and every one I made turned out perfect, although it does not work on felt. So here is my card with my first successful curled mini rose! I've used the Mojo Monday sketch again with BG Paper Cottage, this sketch is perfect for the Asymmetry challenge on Moxie Fab World!
