Happy Birthday

Addicted to CAS Challenge #43 - Celebrate

I'm loving shaped card bases at the moment, so decided to use my Window Frames Collection Framelits to make the base and the raised centre topper.

I stamped out three flowers and coloured them in using my blendabilities, these were finished with a pearl in the centre.

Using the matching Rich Razzleberry Ink I stamped my sentiment on to the centre of my topper, raised this up on 3D pads, and then arranged my flowers around the bottom edge.

Less is More Challenge -  Earth Tones

Earth Tones are not my normal "go to" colours, but I really enjoyed this challenge. I stamped directly on to the base of my card, and then cut an aperture in to my top piece of card, and added my sentiment. I continued my flower theme inside of my card by stamping the largest flower on to the bottom left corner.

I stamped and punched out a small butterfly, added some pearls for its body, then stuck this inside the aperture.

Less is More Challenge -  WATERCOLOUR

Lovely challenge this week.... a chance to get my watercolour paints out again, something I love using!!

I shaped my card base by using the largest Window Frame Collection Die, and then echoed the shape by piercing a matching border round the edge of my card.

My stamp is "Crossing Bridges" by Penny Black, and was coloured in with watercolour paints. I stamped my sentiment on to a scrap of card and made a small banner. Pearls were used to finish off my design.

Less is More Challenge -  Week 173 We have a recipe! DIE CUT

A lovely challenge from the team at Less is More this week, which gave me the opportunity to make a shaped card, something I have been trying out a lot in the last couple of weeks. I used my first die to make the shaped card base. Keeping with white on white for a really simple look, I added a trellis frame to the front of my card.

My card now needed a splash of colour, so using my third and fourth dies, I cut out leaves and flowers. A sentiment was stamped and punched out to finish.
