Playing on the Beach

Hello everyone, today I have a card to show you featuring stamps from the Magnolia Sea Breeze Collection 2013.

For my card I have used Playing on the Beach Tilda from the Magnolia Sea Breeze Collection 2013 and she is coloured with copics. I have added some glossy accents to the rubber ring for a bit of dimension and shine. The DP is from echo park and the cute sunglasses are made using a die from Noor Design. I cut them out twice, once in black and a second time in grey, then I cut out the hearts only from the grey pair to make the lenses. I then added glossy accents to the lenses to give them some shine.

Finally, an angled shot. The sentiment is from the Noor Design Summer Lovin' stamp set and I finished off with some ribbon and jewels.

Cupcake Challenge 243

Hello everyone, over on Cupcake Challenge 243 we have a theme of lavender and lace and this week we are sponsored by Bugaboo Designs who are offering on lucky winner 7 digi images as a prize.

This week I received two gorgeous new stamps from Noor Design and as soon as I saw them I knew what I wanted to make.....my biggest problem was choosing which one to use!!! I coloured the rose in with copics and distressed the image with antique linen and vintage photo distress ink. I gave the same treatment to my DPs which are by Teresa Collins and I stitched around all the edges. Finally, I finished off with some pearl lace and two pearls on the top.

Here are some more detailed pictures for you. I love this image, I think it will be so versatile, it is pretty as a main image but it would also be fabulous as a postcard or tag embellishment for a card too.

Another....

And my final shot. The picture frame is 5 x 7 inches in case anyone was wondering!!

In the Garden

Hello everyone, today I have a card to show you featuring some new dies from Noor Design. I am entering my card into Tilda's Town Challenge 52, they have a theme of something old something new (old stamp, new dies).

I used the dies to create a scene and I experimented with a different style rather then my usual one! I used the bench and cut this out of kraft card stock, I then distressed it with vintage photo for a bit of definition. the grass die is also by Noor design and I used my copics to colour it in. Finally, the lamp post was cut out of white card and again, it was distressed with vintage photo ink. I used Summer Tilda from the Lazy Summer Days Collection 2009 and she is coloured with copics and my sentiment is from papermania.

For the inside I used the fence die, distressed it with vintage photo and added a bit of twine. I cut it out twice and I layered the bird and the bird box up with foam pads for a bit of dimension. On the other side I created a pocket and cut out and embossed two of the frame dies to make tags to write sentiments on.

A closer look at the fence.

...... and the pocket side!

And finally, an angled shot!

The DP is from basic grey and the embossed panel was done using the background rose stencil from Joy Crafts. The decorative edge was cut using a DooHickey die and the sentiment is from WOJ.
