TOP 3 Badge

This gorgeous image is coloured with Promarkers. 

The background was made using a spellbinder die which I used to cut the six panels which were then embossed.

It’s a much neglected die and I am always delighted with the effect when I use it.

The sentiment was made on the PC.

The flowers are from my stash and the foliage was made using a Martha Stewart punch.

For more inspiration check out my fellow DT members, they are awesome.

Good Morning Crafty Peeps,

Here is our mid challenge post at

Jan’s Digi Stamps Challenge

A new challenge will begin on the first Monday of the month, so you still have plenty of time to enter.

 Two lucky winners will be awarded a $10 Gift Code to the on-line store!

For my mid challenge inspiration project, I have used

Alone Together

 

We have been without internet for several days as a result of a lightning strike last Tuesday night. I can honestly say that it was the most frightening experience of my life so far and I am thankful that we all escaped unharmed.

So, I needed to create a quick card once power was restored and at least some things were up and running.

This is where the coloured images in Jan’s sets are such a God send along with the fabulous sentiments.

She makes it all so, so easy.

 

Don’t forget to check out my fellow teamies projects – they are an awesome bunch of gals!!!

Remember to become a follower to be in with a chance to win $10 to spend in the store.

 

Happy Crafting

This week I decided to create a CAS card – which I very rarely do.

I used this image from Mo’s Digital Pencil called

Video boy

Good Morning Crafty Peeps,
It’s time for a new monthly challenge at …
As always the theme is Anything Goes .
There will be 2 random draws; one specifically for entries which use a JDS image, and the other for everyone else.  Each winner will receive a gift certificate for $10 to be spent in the store. 
Today I am using Jan’s gorgeous set


Previously I used one of the pre coloured images but this time, I used the black and white image and coloured it with Promarkers.
I wanted to create a CAS almost monochrome card in elegant grey tones.
I recoloured the frame from the set in a digital design program.
I added the sentiment and the image which I again changed to a soft grey to match the frame. I then coloured the image with my Promarkers.
I matted and layered using matt silver paper on a white base card.


Don’t forget to check out my fellow teamies projects – they are so talented.
