Hey Crafty Friends,

Today I'm sharing a birthday card I made for a work colleague. Cat cards are not something I reach to make very often unless I have too and I don't own too many either, there are a few work colleagues who love their cats and I feel I have totally exhausted the stamps I do own this year until I found this Lawn FawnFortune Teller Tabby at the back of my stash! 

I decided to go with a galaxy theme to stage my image. I've use a coordinating die from the Time for Tea Spooktacular stamp set.

Starting with the circle piece I ink blended a galaxy sky using Wilted Violet, Blueprint Sketch, Cracked Pistachio and Black Soot Distress Inks. I die cut the same piece again from huckleberry card stock and used just the scalloped edge to frame my galaxy section. For added texture in my galaxy I splattered water onto the ink and also some Copic Opaque White ink.

To give something more to the card I took the balloon room stencil by Heffy Doodle and used 2 inks to create 2 tones in the balloons, Wilted Violet and Peacock Feathers. I also added to some string to the stencilled balloons using a gold gel pen by Pear Blossom Press.

To finish up I used the birthday Heffy Cut alongside the Roundabout Sentiments on the Curved Banner die.



Until next time, happy crafting!

Hey Crafty Friends, It's a new month so that means the start of a new challenge over on the Colour it, Create it, Show it off challenge blog, as always our challenge is anything goes, that's any image, any project. Why not grab you favourite set and join us  here. If you would like to treat yourself to a new image you can find all the MyBesties images  here. This will be a shorter post again today, it's a very simple card. I coloured the image in Spectrum Noir alcohol markers and fussy cut around her. Taking a card blank and used Kitsch flamingo distress ink to bring down some colour to about a quarter down the panel and fade out into the white to give a very soft look and feel. Using some trees branches, flowers and leaves from a couple sets in my stash and a birthday sentiment to top this off and bring it all together.  I cant wait to see what you come up with for the challenge! This card was sent to a fellow crafter on Instagram in a birthday swap, it gave me joy to ha...

Swan Galaxy - Interactive card!

Image
Hey Crafty Friends, Welcome back, I'm sharing my usual design team post for Crafty Purple Frog a few days early because I am so impatient and love this card so much that I wanted to share with you all at the earliest opportunity!  Today's card is very fitting, I usually make a card with someone in mind or themed around something I've seen. My idea for this came as soon as I saw the set 'Spread your wings' This beautiful swan has big regal wings that meant it deserved the opportunity to fly! To start up I took a scalloped slimline frame die and inked up a galaxy type background, now the thing to remember with creating a galaxy background is it might look like a hot mess to start with! A galaxy background can use any colours you feel are fitting, I'm using Wilted Violet, Mermaid Lagoon and Candied Apple. You can put some greens and pinks in too if you would like.  Take a blending tool, I'm using a blending brush and bring in random sections of colour using you...
