So now that we’ve been back to work for a couple of weeks it’s like the Christmas break never happened. Do you ever feel like that? 😞
The sponsor for the CRAFT challenge #624 is Trimgym, who is the coordinator for our CRAFT challenge group and the theme is Anything Goes (ATG). Each week we invite you to join us at Trimmies Craft Challenge going with the theme.
So here’s a summary of the materials used to make the card:
Cream 6×6” scallop edged 300gsm base card
Digital image
Chameleon pens (BV2, GR1, BL4, VO2)
Bead curtain cling rubber stamp from Stamp Addicts by JudiKins USA
Happy birthday you old bird stamp from Stamp Addicts
Distress Oxide “Stormy Sky”
For this card I stamped the bead curtain onto a spare piece of card to create a topper which I’ve also edged with the ink to give more of a focus to that panel.
Onto another piece of card I printed the digital image of the seahorse, fussy cut it and coloured it with the listed Chameleon pens. I wanted subtle colours and I think that these work well.
To finish off I also added the sentiment “Happy Birthday”, but this was taken from a stamp that actually has a second line which I’ve masked so that this didn’t get inked just leaving the section I wanted to use.
Thank you for stopping by, please leave a comment. X
The digital image I have chosen for this challenge is “Shopping in Yorkshire”. It has been coloured with Chameleon pens. I grounded the shopper and cut an apperture in the blue paper to frame the image. I mounted this onto aa kraft card base to draw out the brown paper bag that she is carrying in the image. Of course in Yorshire it would almost certainly be raining so her umbrella is out! I’ve added dots of glossy accents to the umbrella and also around her to try and emulate the rain.

So here’s a summary of the materials used to make the card:
The sponsor for the CRAFT challenge #622 is Colour of Love and the theme is Christmas. Each week we invite you to join us at Trimmies Craft Challenge going with the theme.
The image has been coloured with Chameleon pens. With the tree I wanted some variation in colour so I’ve added glitter to every other layer. In each of the 2 corners I added a snowflake corner stamp and some word stamps to help frame the image. Then I inked with the Iced Spruce and stamped with the snowflake stamp on the base card.
So here’s a summary of the materials used to make the card:
The wreath has been coloured with Chameleon pens, and the card blank was stamped and inked to give subtle interest and to tone in with the colour pallet.

The sponsor for the CRAFT challenge #619 is JMC Designs and the theme is winter. Each week we invite you to join us at Trimmies Craft Challenge going with the theme.
So here’s a summary of the materials:
White 300gsm A4 sheet cut, scored and folded to make a base card
JMC digital image “Peggy” from the Arctic Adventures collection
Die cut stamped sentiment
Tacky glue
White acrylic paint
Paper sheet from the Paper Tree, cut to shorten and overlay
ice Spruce ditresss oxide ink
Snowflake stamp
Chameleon pens (RD2, RD4, YO3, CG9)
I coloured my sweet little penguin “Peggy”with Chameleon pens and cut her out on my scan n cut machine.
I then took the paper sheet from a The Paper Tree paper pad and cut it and then fussy cut around the items at the bottom of the sheet so that it could overlaid.
The stars were a little bit bold so I chose to cover the top part of the paper with a thin coat of white acrylic to knock back the colour slightly.
After layering up the papers I stamped some snowflakes in Iced Spruce Distress Oxide and used this to also ink around the edge before mounting it onto a base card. I added the penguin, a sentiment and a snowflake.
Thank you for stopping by. Please leave a comment.
The sponsor for this challenge is Sweet n Sassy and the theme is Christmas – non traditional colours. Each week we invite you to join us at Trimmies Craft Challenge going with the theme.
The cute little mouse snuggled up into the hat was coloured with Chameleon pens and then given a bit of glitz and glam by adding glimmer powder. I cut the image out on my scan n cut and then worked on the background. I took my card blank and stamped in a versamark clear and added pink embossing powder. I then added some more glimmer dust into the winter themed background border stamp.
As always it’s lovely to see that you’ve stopped by to leave a comment. Thank you.
