Lemon and Lavender

The Crafty Cow forum has a monthly challenge which I set and this year we have decided to have a sketch each month. This is the card I have made for the July challenge .
The paper is from some old Elusive Images paper I had, the stamp is from Kanban,coloured with Copics and the flowers were punched from the paper.  am aslo entering it in the Simon Says challenge which this week has a theme of lemon and lavender.

Stamping on patterned paper


These two cards were made using the same idea. Very quick and easy to make. I used some patterned paper that came from the Graphicus Guild and then stamped and embossed the image. All the stamps were from Elusive Images. The bird was stamped with Versamark and gold embossed and the tree stamped with black and clear embossed. Very easy but I think quite effective.

Squashed flowers!

Finally got round to having a go at the squashed flower technique using a Cuttlebug that Sue Wilson demo'd on Create and Craft  little while ago. I used some hardy blue geraniums as the flower. I did take a photo of them before I cuttlebugged them but seem to hve deleted it before I could upload it. Oops!! Any way  here is the result with some added stamping and distress inks round the edge. The stamps were some from Elusive Images.

Simon Says Challenge is to recycle. This is my card. The rose patterned paper was off my Valentine's Day roses and the raffia was from a Mother's day bouquet. The stamp is from Elusive Images and was embossed with red sparkle embossing powder on a scrap of cream vellum.The whole is mounted on a peachy pearl card.

Red Roses

I made this for the Crafty Cow Card swap so have been waiting to find out that it had been received before I posted it on here. I used the Harlequin Rose themeplate from Elusive Images stamped onto pearlescent card then coloured with brush markers.
