Hello lovelies, nice to have you here!
Today I want to share with you my second project for the "Cats & Dogs" challenge over at Countryview Challenges.
This time I made a little dreamy tag with a diecut cat from my stash.
Hello and welcome to the May challenge at Country View Challenges!
The theme this month is "Cats & Dogs", hosted by my talented teamy Rachel.
I really like dogs, but my heart belongs to cats. I always had one or more cats in my life from childhood until now and I really love these confident, independent but also clingy creatures.
And of course I made a card with a cat.
That´s it for today, I hope you will find time to join in with our challenge this month, as you know, you can win a 20 £ voucher for the shop!
Well, and now I don´t want to introduce you my two beloved furr babies Lucy and Oskar:
This is Lucy - she is a little Diva =) |
....and this is her brother Oskar. He is the most adorable cat I ever had! 💗 |
Thank you for your visit and happy May!
Hello and happy weekend!
This is my second project for the April Challenge "Spring is coming" at Country View Challenges.
I made a little card again, using die cut pieces again.
I started by stamping and white heat embossing some flower heads. Next was spreading texture paste through a stencil from Aall & Create, Nr. #112 Heapza Hexagonz (you can find a lot of Aall & Create products here in the shop!) and left it to dry.
For the colour I used some magicals in different colours. I sprinkled the powders on top of the weted surface and dried again.
Then I only had to arrange the diecuts and the word (again from Art by Marlene). The pretty tulips I glued directly on top of the card, the super cute bunny and the bumblebee I glued down with foam tape to make him pop even more.
To finish the little card I went over the edges with a black crayon and added some white spritzes and dots.
Here are some more pictures:
That´s it for today, I hope you feel inspired to make some springlike project for the challenge. As always you can win a 20 £ voucher for the shop!
Thank you for your visit!
Hello all and a joyful April to you!
For the challenge over at Country View Challenges, the lovely Corrie is hosting, the theme is "Spring is coming!". She wants to see Spring colours AND anything that is around in Spring like flowers and baby animals.
My first make has got, beside the Spring colours, both - a flower and a little baby bird!
Now it´s your turn to make a spring project for our challenge!
Happy April!
Hello lovelies!
Welcome to my second post for the March Challenge "Mother´s Day" at Country View Challenges!
I made another card. As I liked the first one very much, I wanted to make a second one with slightly different supplies.
This time I used again a layering stencil from Tim Holtz, floral THS077 and used modeling paste to bring the pattern on the paper.
When it was dry, I took infusions, magenta and bit jaded. I mixed a small amount with water and brushed the colours on my page. This way I had some more control where the colour would go. I added some layers and dried between. Lastly I sprinkled some colour to the clean right side..
I wanted to seal the surface and tried out the Transparent Wax from Stamperia. I smeared it on the surface with a dry cloth - and it worked very well! ...and the card smells very good now =).
I stamped the text with a very old stamp, coloured the cardstock with the leftover infusions, cut it out, matted it and adhered it with foam tape to the card.
To make it even more elegant, I brushed some golden metallic acrylic paint (DecoArt Extreme Sheen 24KGold, my favourite golden metallic paint) and added some spritzes at last. Then I glued it to a gold matallic card.
I hope, you liked my cards and feel inspired to make something beautiful for your mum too!
Thank you for your visit today!
Hello and welcome to March!
This month in the UK Mother´s Day will be celebrated - so the theme for the challenge this month over at Country View Challenge is "Mother´s Day" - and I am hosting it.
You can make whatever you want, it don´t have to be a card, but of course we must be able to see, that it meets the theme Mother´s Day. But please follow the rules of the challenge, you can enter no more than 5 times and you are allowed to enter your project in other challenges, up to a total of 10, including ours.
I made this card for the challenge.
I was inspired by the wonderful work of the talented ladies Nuneka and Asia Marquet.
This is what I did:
I prepared a piece of cardstock with Gesso and when dry, I took a layering stencil from Tim Holtz, called Rosette and spreat modeling paste through it. Not over the whole surface, only partially.
When dry, I took the wonderful PaperArtsy infusions lemoncello, magenta and black knight. I sprinkled them onto the preweted paper. Some spritzes of water made them flow. Then I dried all with a heat tool.
Next I did some stamping with different background stamps. I stamped them with black and brown Archival ink.
The sentiment is a stamp from france papillon - perfect words. I stamped and heat embossed it with nuvo fine detail embossing powder.
I diecut some leaves from a white cardstock with a very old Magnolia die from my stash, glued them down together with a wooden embelishment flower, and adhered the panel on a cardbase.
Here are some close ups:
I hope to see your makes for the challenge!
Thank you for your visit today and have a good time!
Hello!
Welcome to my second post for the "Hearts and Flowers"-challenge over at Country View Challenges
Tomorrow it´s Valentines Day and so I made a Velentines Day Card.
I used some stamp sets from PaperArtsy for the heart and garlands and the script. The tiny flowers are another stamp set from PaperArtsy.
I made a picture from all the supplies I used, you can see them here:
