Pretty Poppies

 A very CAS card today using Memory Box 'Row of Poppies' die
I first cut the die into the front of my white card, then diecut again in red and green card. I have trimmed the coloured pieces and inlaid them into the card front. I cut a small piece of green to ground them.

Coffee lovers

Hi everyone.

I have made this card so that I can join in with the coffee lovers blog hop, and also the challenge at Verve stamps
 I have printed some of the images from Verve, onto a cream cardstock, and used yellow and orange markers to highlight. I used wink of stella to add sparkle, and sponged the edges with walnut stain DI

Cupcakes

Hi everyone. I have had a productive week - it is good getting back into the swing of cardmaking.

Today's card is for the challenge at Allsorts, they are wanting cakes etc, so I thought this would be a good stamp to use. I stamped it 3 times and coloured it with copics. The 3 sticker was glittered with KindyGlitz, and I used clear Wink of Stella over the icing.

Twist and Pop!

 Hi everyone.

Today I have made one of the popular 'twist and pop' cards, it was a lot of fun to do, especially trying to get the mechanism right!
Sorry I can't remember who the DP is from.

I would like to enter this into the 'More than one fold" challenge at Scor Pal

Spring!

Hi everyone, I hope you are all well.

Today's card features a beautiful stamp by Indigo Blu. I first made my background using distress inks on my craft sheet, spritzed with water and smooshing the card through several times. I then stamped with Shades Dye Ink (citrus oranges) and stamped again on some scrap paper, so that I could fussy cut the flowers and layer them up. I added some micro beads to the centre of them and also some white splatters to the background.

Architecture, and the key of the door!

Hi everyone.

The challenge at Paper Artsy is for 'doors, windows, and arcitecture. I have chosen to use this lovely print of a Venetian scene. I have lightly tinted it in places with Marvy Markers, distressed the edges with Vintage Photo DI, and layered it onto a background which I stamped in French Script. I finished off by adding a little   key (for the door)

CAS and sky blue

Hi everyone, I hope you are all well.
Today's card was an experiment - stamp and emboss with white detail ep, and then colour. I used copics and Promarkers to shade the leaves and flowers. This is a stamp that I won from Holley's blog, I do not know the brand.
