House of Cards - April Challenge

Another month whizzes by! This months challenge is to make a card with butterflies and/or the following colour scheme.

I decided not to use butterflies. I use them al the time. So I stuck to the colour scheme and made a masculine card, perhaps for a teenage boy.

The background card has been stamped using Turquoise ink and the Off the Grid stamp set by Stampin Up then over stamped in yellow using Gorgeous Grunge set again from Stampin Up. SU On Film Framelits to cut the black frame, layered and a "boyey"paperclip and sequins to finish off.

CASEing for Christmas

I'm caseing my own card this week. Seems strange! Come and have a look here at what the other members of the DT have created!

Here is my original card

and here is my case! I've kept it really simple using a stamp set by Clearly besotted "Pretty Poinsietta" otherwise Id recreate the same design!!

House of Cards - March Challenge

The design team this month have been challenged to use enamel dots on their cards. I have in the past tried to make my ow but failed miserably. Have a look at our challenge blog as we have some great tutorials on making your own!

So here's my card. Not a very inventive use of enamel dots so I apologise!! Stampin up Cupcake Party, Heidi Swapp resist paper "banner" which I inked in yellow/turquoise to match the papers and a big Hello greeting. A few enamel dots as embellishment.

Case-ing for Christmas

Here's this weeks card to case for Christmas!  Made my fellow Design team member Cohenna.....

So here's my case of her card. I've used Stampin Up Festival of Trees stamp set and matching punch and layered with a piece of red card card cut with the Deco Labels Framelits, glittery gold and scalloped circle. Bakers twine to finish off. Thanks for looking and I hope you join in!

"Case"ing for Christmas

I really struggled this week "case"ing this card lovely card by fellow DT member Ellen. I dont know why but whatever I did I wasn't happy with.

So here is my THIRD (yes third) attempt to do it justice although I'm not happy with it!! Help!

Stampin up embossing folder and Clearly Besotted stamp set " Holiday Sentiments" for the sentiment
