Sweet Blue Christmas


Evening Everyone,
We have had a busy time here of late.  Sometimes I just don't know where the time goes.  Somehow I did find some time to create this little card, although it did take a lot longer to create than I would like, but in the end we got there.  Once again I missed a few challenges but that is not an issue, the challenges give me inspiration from the very creative design team.



I would like to enter my creation in the following challenges......

Christmas Card Challenge  -  Challenge #35 Anything Goes
Divas By Design - Anything Goes

I know... a little monotonous "Anything Goes"


For this card I used
Magnolia Stamps - Christmas Eve Tilda, Basket with Presents & Sweet Christmas Dreams
Magnolia DooHickey - Flag & Cloud
Memory Box Die - Frostyville Border
WOC - Flowers and Blue Crystal Drops
KaiserCraft papers
Feathers from Stash
Paper Doiley
Tissue Paper
And Of Course my beloved Copics


Thanks for visiting
Happy Crafting

Tilda and Mushrooms


 
Afternoon Everyone,
I have been on a big learning curve with this card creation.  Firstly, this was my first attempt at masking, so little to say there were a few trial stamps first. 
Then I had to learn some patience, to explain, I coloured my image and was very happy as to how it turned out.  But someone out there had bigger plans for my image.  I was adding my final touches for the stalks to the tulips and my LOVELY green copic must of been to full of ink and blobbed all over my image..... So little anger set in and I had to find my cool before I coloured again.
 
Finally we got there though!!!
I am sure I am not the only one this happens to ..
 
So, after all the dramas of crafting, here is my creation....
 
 
I would like to entre this card in the following challenges......

Edwin wants a hug!!

 Afternoon Everyone,  
I promised myself more craft time and I have managed to do it... My second card in a week and I have managed to post it and make the challenge deadlines.... So proud of me!!!

Some of the challenges this week were for Edwin so I found this beautiful stamp.  I haven't stamped this one before, not sure why, I think this stamp just got lost in the stash.... But had fun colouring this Edwin for the first time.

This card is a little bit of a multimedia card.. took stock from my scrapbook pages for inspiration.


I would like to enter this card in the following challenges......
Simon Says - Stencil
Diva By Design - Anything Magnolia
Paper Take Weekly - For the Boys
Midweek Magnolia - Endearing Edwin
Sketch n Stash - Challenge 141
 


A close up of the detail created with the stencil and texture paste... As I used white texture paste, the design did not stand out as much as I hoped, so I went over the design with a black prisma color pencil and some gamsol.  


For this card I used.....
Magnolia - Edwin Wants A Hug
Paper from KaiserCraft & Stash
Tim Holtz - Weathered Clock Die
Copics
White Charcoal
Texture Paste
Crafters Workshop - Mini Honeycomb Stencil
PrismaColor Pencils
Gamsol
