Little Pumpkin ....

Hi Everyone.

Wow July sure went fast.  I am back today to share with you my card for the new challenge now started  over at The Crafters Cafe Challenge Blog.

Our fabulous sponsor for this month's challenge # 322 is:

 All Dressed Up

The challenge is Anything Goes and this month there is an option to use Patterned Paper.  I chose this very cute image called Little Pumpkin, which I have coloured using Copic Markers.  To incorporate the Patterned Paper aspect I printed the image twice, once onto copic cardstock and the other onto Patterned Paper.  I have then cut out the Boots, Hat and Dress and pieced them onto the coloured image.  I am really happy with how it has turned out.

Supplies used:

All Dressed up Digital Stamps - Little Pumpkin

Paper Roses Die - Stitched Rectangles

Avery Elle Stamp - Peonies (sentiment)

Copic Markers

Versa Fine Clair - Nocturne

Copic colours used:

Pumpkin - Y17,YR16, R59, E09, YR 18, YG63 & 61

Leaves - YG61, 63, 67

Hair - E39, 49, 59

Hi everyone

I am popping in today to share my latest card created using some Darkroom Door Stamps and a Stencil that I have had in my stash for a while.

 For my card I firstly taped my Bristol Board card base to my stencil and then taped this to my glass mat.  I applied Kitsch Flamingo and Spiced Marmalade Distress Oxide through the stencil and then using my Blossom stamp, inked it with Morning Mist Versa Clair,  stamped through the stencil before removing it from my mat.

I then stamped my Robin onto some Bristol Board and cut out using a stitched circle die and applied to the front of my card with foam tape to create some dimension, then applied my sentitment to finish.  I love the colours and final finish.

supplies used:

Darkroom Door Stamp - Robin DDES017

Darkroom Door Stamp - Bold Blossoms DDRS081

Darkroom Door stamp - Simple Sayings DDRS119

Celebrate Us...

Hi everyone, wow last month has just flown.

We are now beginning to see a few cool nights and wet days, so I think the lovely warm days of summer are going away. Today as I write this,  there is the continual sound of soft falling rain and little birds in my garden chittering away and flittering through the wet foliage enjoying the rain.

Today is also the start of a new challenge month over at Bizzy Becs, and  my card for this months challenge uses a new stamp and die set from Altenew.  The set was released in colaboration with Pink Fresh last year and is a real cutie.  The image was coloured using Altenew Stamp Pads, colours I have listed below.

Supplies Used:

Altenew Stamp & Die Set - Celebrate Us

Creative Expressions die - Noble Expressions - Happy Birthday

Various Altenew Crisp Dye Ink Pads

VersaFine Clair - Nocturne

Flower: Baby Pink, Fuchsia and Mango Smoothie

Leaves: Limeade & Fresh Leaf

Background splattered using Magenta

Thanks so much for looking and I hope you have a wonderful day.
