Just for you

Hi everyone, thank you for stopping by again! The sponsor for this challenge is TPS. Each week we invite you to join us at the Through the craft room door blog, the theme is always anything goes!

I printed out the digital image and had some peach coloured card which was in my stash which coordinated with the image so this is what I used for the large mat and for stamping the sentiment words onto. To make the green in the image pop a little more, I also used a green mat which I cut with a stamp die. Between the green and peach mats I felt it needed something kind of lacy, but none of my lacy dies seemed right!

Can you guess what I used instead of lace?? The cream lacy parts were 2 peacocks that o had already cut in cream card in my stash. I hope you’ll agree that they look fabulous on this card.

Here is a summary of the materials:

• 300gsm card base
• Image from TPS
• 2 cream did cut peacocks
• Peach card
• Green card
• Rectangle stamp die

As always, I hope that you like the card. It’s lovely to see that you’ve stopped by to leave a comment. Thank you.

Wearing Spring Easel Card

Hi everyone. Thanks for stopping by. It’s time for another DT challenge.

On to the DT challenge and the sponsor for trimmies CRAFT challenge #643 is The Paper Shelter (TPS). The theme this week is “easel card”. Each week we invite you to join us at Trimmies Craft Challenge going with the theme.

I absolutely love this digital image and I’ve requested it a few times but until now have not been lucky enough to have it chosen for the DT image to use!

I also chose to learn how to make a new type of easel card that I have never made before. This one like other easels folds flat, but the stopper is a 3D bar which you can see here:

I layered up some of the image and also used some of the 2nd image I printed to add extra elements to the bar and inside.

So here’s a summary of the materials used to make the card:

• Digital image
• Black doodle pen
• High tack glue
• Ruler
• Score board
• Guillotine
• Card base – 300gsm

I hope that you feel inspired and it would be lovely to read you comments.

TTCRD anything goes challenge – 7th September 2021

The sponsor for this challenge is The Paper Shelter. Each week we invite you to join us at the Through the craft room door blog, the theme is always anything goes!

I’m using an image called Autumn Breeze. The windswept girl comes with a backing paper and I’ve chosen to reduce the size of her so that I could add a sentiment to the blank space. I have also inked around the outside of the image with some distress oxide inks and over stamped with some text in a pale colour to add a little more age and texture.

As always it’s lovely to see that you’ve stopped by to leave a comment. Thank you.

CRAFT challenge #557 – 3D decoupage

Come and join us at Trimmies Craft Challenge. Our sponsor this time is The Paper Shelter.

I love this image called ‘Teamwork ‘ it is indeed teamwork for these two to get up onto that branch!

No colouring needed this week as I used a pre-coloured image printed out several times to create the layers for my 3D decoupage card.

I hope this inspires you to create your own decoupage as you can choose your own layers!
