Just because I want to make you smile

Hey Crafty Friends,

Today I'm sharing a nice bright card, I am so ready for Spring! Flowers are starting to bloom again here in the UK and I have seen a few bees around in the last few days so couldn't resist pulling out the Blooming Marvelous stamp.



Card Recipe:

1. Take a square label die and die cut from bright white card stock

2. Use the honeycombe layering stencil inked with scattered straw, squeezed lemonade and dried marigold

3. Take the next largest square label to the one you used above and cut from Sunny Side Up card stock

4. Stamp the Rose, Bee and Leaf images on alcohol marker friendly card stock and colour in alcohol markers. I am using Copics

Colour combination:

Rose - V09, V06, V04, V05, V04 and V01

Bee - C7, C5, C3, C2, Y17, Y15 and Y13

Leaves - G17, G14 and G12

5. Take a stamping platform and stamp sentiments from the just because sentiment stamp set 

6. Stick your images down using craft glue

I hope today's card has brightened your day, until next time, happy crafting!

Starting with 2 large panels from the  Big Shadow Box Die cut from  Wintergreen  card stock. I then lay on top of the new  Winter Forest Backdrop Die TIP: As the backdrop die cuts a whole panel you need to line up and lay on top after cutting the 2 shadow box panels and partially die-cut each panel so we don't cut off our attachment tabs.

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 have

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
