New Challenge at Time Out!

Hi friends!

We have a new, very inspiring challenge for you to join at Time Out:

Our sponsor is Visible Images with an amazing £25 coupon to their store! Our winner also gets called to guest design in a future challenge. This time the guest designer is the very talented Joanna. Love her CAS style!

In my card I'm using two stamp sets from our amazing sponsor:

 Creative Chaos and Live Life Now

I've stamped and Copic colored the flowers from Creative Chaos and then gold heat embossed the sentiment from Live Life Now. There's some paint splatters in addition to those steps but that's really all there is to this card! My interpretation is both literal and more metaphoric... Firstly, these Visible Images stamps have a more free from, they look "free" as they are... But then the sentiment: At the moment it's very hard to feel freedom with all the restrictions in our societies... And with all the craziness that is our world at the moment... So this sentiment is reminding us to try to nevertheless to "live life now", to feel the freedom of being alive and kicking no matter what! 

Thanks for popping by and I hope to see you joining our challenge. 

New Challenge at Less Is More!

Hi friends!

It's time for the last challenge of April at Less Is More. The month of April is sponsored by Visible Image stamps and our DT has very much enjoyed playing with their products! The flower stamp set I used in this card can be bought HERE. Please have a look at our challenge blog for lots of more DT inspiration! 

I wish my photo was better in showing the shine this card has but no... It was really hard to capture in the lighting conditions I was working with! I've made the Copic colored flowers shiny with Wink of Stella and also the gold water color I've splattered has a beautiful shine on it. I splattered white paint as well. I've also created a "halo" around the flowers with yellow ink to make them look like they are glowing in light... And the rest of the kraft card I've evenly coated with white pigment ink to make the yellow halo pop even more. The photo is really bad and makes this card "look like nothing" but it is really nice in real life and I actually have it in my fridge door now because I like the message of the sentiment so much! :)

I hope I've inspired you to "Shine a Light" and I hope to see you playing along! Happy crafting!  

New Challenge at Less Is More!

Hi friends!

We have a new fun challenge for you at Less Is More:

You can use three images, three colors... Something where you have 3 of an item!

Visible Images continues as our March sponsor and I had a lot of fun playing with one of their amazing stamp sets called Creative Chaos. 

I begun this card by blending three ink colors on my card... And then stamped the flower image from the set three times. I splattered some white paint on top... And finished the card with an Altenew sentiment. Quite like how this turned out! It makes me think about the Finnish spring... flowers already rising from the earth but then we STILL get some more snow... ;) 

Do visit our challenge blog for inspiration from our fabulous guest designer Joanne James and our design team members... And I hope to see you joining us!
