Mix it up

Hello.

The mix it up challenge from Ellen Hutson this time is Altenew.

I have used the Altenew dodecagram stamp set.

I heat embossed in white then water coloured. 

I masked a panel in the centre and stamped the sentiment from Essentials by Ellen Fancy thanks set.

I finished by adding some bling ...I didn't follow a pattern just lifted strips from the pack and place them on.  :)

Thanks for looking.

Mix it up with Ellen Hutson

Hello.

I made this card for the Mix it up challenge from Ellen Hutson.

The challenge is to mix Essentials by Ellen products with Avery Elle.

I have used Bold blossoms dies  and Bold Blooms stamps from Ellen Hutson and finished frames happy word die and brushed stamp set from Avery Elle.

I started by heat embossing the flower and leaf images i then die cut the small panel and coloured with peerless watercolours.

Next i added the happy die cut.

I stamped the oh and day and fussy cut to fit around the happy word die cut.

Once everything was in place i added some black wink of stella then glossy accents to the happy.

Thanks for looking.

Sparkle and shine

Hello.

Another challenge card :) 

And this time its for the challenge at Sparkle and shine  and is to use the graphic above as inspiration.

I went with the pink and green colour scheme and used the new In bloom: Addies garden stamps from Winnie and Walter with my Peerless watercolours.

I die cut my watercolour card with a die from Pretty Pink Posh and then heat embossed the images in white before colouring.

I then die cut two of the thanks and place a pink one over silver so just  a touch of silver shows through.

Finished the card with sequins.

Thanks for looking.

Dazzling Divas #71

Hello.

We have a beautiful inspiration photo for this weeks Dazzling Divas challenge at Add a little dazzle.

Take inspiration and just have fun. remember you do  not have to use add a little dazzle craft metal sheets to join in or to be eligible for prizes ... so win win :)

I hope you can see where i took my inspiration from. 

I used almost all elements of the picture other than the peaches as i do not have a peach stamp.

I did however use the colours.

I started by making my background panel using Winnie and Walter dies and scenery stripes stamps with distress inks and a water brush.

I wanted to get the look of the wooden box.

I then heat embossed and water coloured the flowers with peerless watercolours and assembled on my panel.

The golden glimmer die cut sentiment finished the card perfectly.
