I love you more than sprinkles

Hello everyone I hope that you are having a lovely Sunday.

Since we had the heater unit installed in the Craft/Study I have to admit we've been spending a lot more time there - I wonder why 😃😃😃

Definitely more conducive to crafting !

Today I have a card that I've made for a challenge on aNNie's World Wide Crafty Inventions Facebook group.

It's a Tic-Tac-Toe challenge open until the end of January so there's a little more time for you to join in.

It's a great idea as it really helps when you have low mojo days..... 

The idea is that you pick three of the elements to work with to create your project. 

 For my card I chose 

• Add dimension
• ink 
• patterned paper

I created a background for my card adhering 4 leftover pieces of patterned paper from another project to a piece of thin card that is slightly smaller than my base card, to leave a small white boarder around the design - its a great way to use up those scraps that we all hoard.

Then I have used a 'new to me stamp' to stamp my focal image in black Versafine ink and then used distress inks to watercolour my cupcake.

For some extra detail I have more distress ink and a stencil to add detail to the image panel before mounting this onto my card.  I have added some confetti around the card for extra bling and to help draw the eye around the card.

And finally I have chosen a suitable sentiment and then mounted this using foam tape for dimension.

Just a simple sweet card and perfect for loads of occasions.  

I really hope that you have enjoyed my card today and will drop by again to see my next project.

Hasta luego 👋 

Enjoy the rest of your day !

Sending a rainbow of hugs

Hello everyone I hope that you are having a lovely day.

I am back today on my blog to share a very quick but bright and cheerful card that I've made simply using some card scraps.  

I was making an inky background for another project that Ill be sharing very soon and had some torn paper strips so decided rather than wasting them I would add them to a card to make this background.  

I love the effect and texture that the torn edges have given to the panel.

All it needed to finish off the card was a simple large sentiment which I have die cut in black card, the shadow layer behind has been cut from vellum.  I stamped the sub-sentiment and finally added a little bling.

Card recipe:

Distress ink - Picked raspberry, candied apple, carved pumpkin, fossilised amber, twisted citron

Simon Says Stamp hugs die & shadow layer

Simon Says Stamp - Garden Greetings stamps

Pinkfresh Studio essentials dies - diagonal stitched rectangles

Craftelier sequins
