Easel cards at OLL

Hello bloggy friends.

Well, it is Monday again and that means it is time for another fabulous challenge at Ooh La La Creations.  Firstly, please let me say a big thank you for all the entries that we had for the last challenge.  Please stop by the Ooh La La Challenge Blog to see who our lucky winners were.  Remember, there is no Random Org here, the Design Team take it in turns to pick their favourite and two runners up - so if you won it's because we loved your creation!!

So, onto the next challenge and this time it is:

EASEL CARDS

Here is the card I made for this challenge:

I have used images and DP from the Boys to Men CD which you can buy here.

The only thing I have used on this card that isn't from the CD is the little purple gems.

Please remember to stop by the rest of the Design Team and see their fabulous creations (links on the DT tab at the top of this page).  They have all worked really hard to offer you some inspiration, so please remember to leave them some love if you pay a visit.

Pink and Green at Crafty Ribbons.

Happy Thursday morning to you lovely peeps!

Time once again for a new challenge at Crafty Ribbons.

Thanks for all your fabulous creations on our last challenge, you really are a crafty lot aren't you?

Please stop by the Crafty Ribbons Challenge blog and see if you were one of our handpicked top 3 or our Random Winner!

So, onto our new challenge.

This time the challenge is hosted by ME!!

and the theme is:

PINK AND GREEN

So here is my project for this challenge:

I have used this lovely LOTV stamp called New Hat, I love this image. Something every little girl has done at one time or another I am sure.

So the image is coloured with my Polychromo pencils and matted onto grey card.

The papers are once again those beautiful Nitwit paper pads at Lili of the Valley and this pad is the "Perfect Pair" pad. Again all papers have been matted onto grey card.

The sentiment is again from a sentiment set at Lili of the Valley.

The two butterflies are from a purchase on eBay. The gems are from my stash as is the little doily which I have inked the edges of with TH distress ink - spun sugar.

The ribbon across the middle of the card is from the range of Tafetta ribbons at Crafty Ribbons here

So there you have it then my Pink and Green creation.

I can't wait to see what you all come up with and I think I am going to have a hard job choosing a Top 3 from this challenge.

Silver, white and one other colour!

Hi all,

Time for another card challenge over at our little Christmas Card Club.

This time our lovely Sylvie has come up with the theme and she wanted to see cards using Silver, White and only one other colour.

I went with red as my other colour.

The stamps I have used are from Clarity Stamps and I decided to stamp them and emboss them in silver.

I'm a bit out of practice with my embossing so there are places where it is a bit naff but you know what they say, practice makes perfect eh??

I have matted the red card onto silver mirri card and just added it to my card base.

Sometimes I think Less is definitely more.

Challenges:

So here is my creation for this challenge:

I have used the top line, Faux Stitching, Glitter/Sparkle, Ribbon

Sorry about the angle of the picture, I've just moved into my new craft room and haven't quite got everything set up properly yet.

So I have used this gorgeous Tilda on the Loose from the Bon Voyage collection.

The image is coloured with my prismacolour pencils and is stamped onto a die cut from my lovely friend Susie Sugar. Thanks hun!

The backing paper is from a pad called Vintage Notes by Papermania.

The gorgeous ribbon is, of course from Crafty Ribbons. 

I have glittered my little butterfly using Gold Glamour Dust and added some more sparkle with the little gem branch behind the single cherry blossom flower.

Let's colour it up a bit!!

Hello bloggy friends.

ORANGE AND GREEN

Here is the card I made for this challenge:

I have used images and DP from the Femme Fatale CD which you can buy here.  The two pieces of ribbon across the top and bottom are also from one of the extras folders which appear on all the CD's.

As you can see I raised the image up a little with silicone glue to give it a bit of depth.

Those little green gems are from my stash.

Please remember to stop by the rest of the Design Team and see their fabulous creations (links on the DT tab at the top of this page).  They have all worked really hard to offer you some inspiration, so please remember to leave them some love if you pay a visit.
