Hand Painted Peacock

One of my card making friends has been doing a lot of painting and at our last card making evening she gave each of us a decoupage sheet as a trial. This is the card I made with the sheet.


I mounted the decoupage on some shimmery gold card cut our with a Crealies die. I would like to enter this into this week’s Allsorts Challenge.

In the Pink!

It's time for a new challenge at Cardz for Galz and we are going to be All Dressed Up!  I was sorting through the rather large pile of magazines at the side of my desk and one of them grom Debbi Moore had the perfect set of images and papers for the challenge.

The dress and shopping bags are decoupaged although my photography skills are not showing it! I  took a square card and folded the front back and covered it with paper from the same magazine,  before adding my image panel. The sentiment is a sticker that must have been a freebie at some time - possibly from Docrafts.

Dont forget to check out all the other inspiration at the challenge blog.

I'm also entering this into the Allsorts Challenge which is Fancy Folds.

Fancy Folds for Allsorts

The challenge this week at Allsorts is Fancy Folds. I had just finished making these two cards for two friends who have birthdays on the same day.


I used the gorgeous new Lemon Lime Twist card together with papers, dies and gold stickers from the Eastern Medallion Suite from SU.

Dragonflies.

The Allsorts challenge this week is to use the colour pink as it is Pink October - in aid of breast cancer awareness.


I made the background with distress crayons just scribbled on the card, then moved around with a water brush. The flower is from SU Awesomely Artistic and the dragonflies I think are from Indigoblu. I added a few splatters of gold as a finishing touch. I am also joining in at Seize the Birthday where it is Anything Goes.

yellow flower

The challenge at Allsorts this week is  "How does you garden grow". I made this card quite a long time ago but have never blogged it and it perfectly fits the theme.


I used the Stampin' Up set Butterfly Basics and coloured the flower with Spectrum Noir pencils.

Love!

First of all I would like to welcome two new followers, Shawna and Cheryl. Hope you pop back often! I had intended joining in the Allsorts 7th birthday challenge last week but by the time I got round to thinking about making a card! the week was over! This week the challenge is "In the Pink".



I made this using another SSS kit from February. I think this paper is so pretty. I'll probably use it for my son's wedding anniversary later this year - I know his wife is very fond of pink!

Less is More - Geometric One Layer!

The ladies at Less is More are asking for a one layer card using geometric shapes! I went with hexagons and four shades of purple.
I masked off the card leaving a strip to stamp the hexagons on. It looked a bit unfinished with just the stamping so I drew two lines top and bottom of the panel to edge it.

I'm never terribly happy with my one layer cards, they always look a bit unfinished to me and invariably I end up cutting them down and adding a mat behind them. I may well do the same here!

And as I used purple will enter it as my 2nd entry over at the Allsorts challenge.

Purple Butterfly

I made this card to use up some bits off my desk. The card base had been cut out at Christmas then not used and the butterfly was left over from the picture here.

The papers are from a colouring book that was free with a magazine, which I colored with copics. The sentiment was also from the colouring book.

Mrs A's butterfly challenge is looking for fancy folds/fuschia, I think this can be classed as a fancy fold and with a bit (lot) of imagination some of the flowers in the background could be fuschias!

Allsorts are asking for purple - so think this qualifies there as well.
