Month 4 week 16 SCD challenge.


This week on SCD challenge blog the house theme is birds. Here is my little house. I have used HOTP papers and added a scroll down the side of house and roof. I then stamped a flower corner image using a Linda Luckin stamp. I then coloured it in using liquid pearls. I stamped two birds and coloured them and cut them out, putting one popping out of the hole and the other sat looking down at him. I also stamped a bee on to shrink plastic and coloured it in and when it shrank I stuck it on to my house with silicone glue.

SCD challenge (quotes and sayings theme)


I am a bit late in getting this weeks challenge done, but here it is. It is a bit faint the scanner does that sometimes grrrrrrrrrrr. Hope it is ok.

Gothic Arches


I haven't done a gothic arch for a while so I thought they would be a change from B/Cards.
The first one is stamped using some of Linda Luckins lovely stamps. I coloured it with Aquatone pens.Then added a large Yellow brad as a sun.







This one is stamped using some lovely foam stamps I got from QVC. I stamped and coloured two fuschia images and coloured them with Marvy pens. I the stuck one on the card and the other I put sticky pads on to raise it up. The butterfly was stamped using a stamp from the same set as the flower one. I coloured it with sakura gel pens. The background was stamped with another of the same set of foam stamps.








This one I used whispers ink pads and a piece of waste from sequins.I stamped the text of freinds from a crafty individual stamp.the used the little girl stamp from crafty individuls and then double embossed it adding a flower to finish.







The last one is stamped using the foam stamps again from QVC. I used a stazon ink pad to colour this one.

two more B/cards

I have made a couple more birthday cards for peeps upcoming birthdays. The first one I made using A DB kit I had forgotten about that I found searching for something else. I used a green card and put a spotted vellum overlay on it then added the tulip shapes and leaves on.













The second one I used a stamped image of a beautiful lady which I coloured in with water colour pencils in blue. The butterfly I used the same pencils to colour it.I then triple embossed it to give it a shiny fiish and edge it with gold ink. Mounted it on blue satin finish card and then added peeloffs.

another birthday card.


This is a card made for a friend of mine. I have used an image from a CD I got from the Nec last year. I mounted the image onto some gold mirri card.The background is from the same CD and then I added peeloffs on to finish off. I think this little girl is gorgeous.

40th B/Card


This is a card I have made for a friend to give her son. He is going to be the ripe old age of 40. As you may gather he is an avid Sheffield Wednesday Fan. so blue and white was the order of the day.

I coloured the rest pale pink added a window and door the door I painted blue . I then added a stamped scroll and some silk flowers to finish off. This is my first attempt at an house.

U is for........


This weeks letter for the alphabet challenge is U. Had some thoughts about this letter and all I could really come up with is Unicorn. Once again I used my programme on the puter to make the image I added this unicorns head onto a background also from the puter. I then mounted it on to some lovely blue mirri card framing the image with a silver peeloff border. So just one U this week.

T is for

As I have been on holiday I have just done last weeks letter for the alphabet challenge which is T. My T is for Teapot, Teacup and Tea for Two. I printed an image from my card making programme on the puter, It is a little faint when the scanner took the copy of it. I made it a skinny and mounted it on some of Joanna Sheens oriental background paper in blue.I added a peeloff border around the edge of the picture.
