Rabbits in wooden style frames 7" square card - 
Day 94 of my 366 day challenge

HI Craft addicts!

I hope you are all having a great weekend! 

Here is my latest card for my challenge - this time using the rabbit images from the lovely "Enchanted Woodland" card making kit from Cratwork Cards!

Rabbits in wooden style frames 7" square card
I had been using some Tim Holtz Distress ink pads (yellow, green, blue and red) and thought it would make a great background for these images. 

So I first of all, added the round topper on to a pre cut deckle edged white hammered card panel and edged it in black alcohol marker.

I then added that to my hand coloured background and cut it to make a narrow frame and again edged it in black.

The smaller rabbit (or hare - I am not sure which one it is), is cut out from one of the 8" papers in the pad that comes with the collection. I added it to some black and then some Kraft coloured card and again edged that in black too.

For the main background image, I took one of the 8" papers and cut it into a "rounded edged square" using my Brother Scan n Cut and stuck it to the main card. I then glued the main panel in the left hand corner and added some thin foam pads (from Hunkdory) to the smaller one and placed it in the right hand corner. I also used my Nuvo crystal drops to make some black "pearls" in the top right and bottom left corners.

I used the rest of the deer image 8" paper to make an insert for the card so it ties in with the front of the card.

Mother's Day flowers card

Mother's Day flowers card Hi Craft addicts! I really love using Tim Holtz's Distress Crayons and so I made this card with one of the designs I created. How I made this card:- I used Tim Holtz Ranger Yupo paper as the base for the flower design - I used his Orange, Yellow, Red and Brown Distress Crayons - just added a few flicks of colour to the paper and then quickly used my finger to spread it a bit...  I repeated the process several times, changing the size of the flowers slightly. Once I was happy with them, I then used a damp waterbrush to fade the colours out a bit. I also used some of the Ranger Blue and Green Distress Crayons to add a faded background to it. I trimmed the panel so it measured 3" x 4.5" and edged it with a Black alcohol marker. I then glued it to some Kraft card (American Crafts as it has a linen effect to it) and cut it so there was a slightly wider border around it. I attached the whole panel to the front of a 5"...

With Love Abstract flower in pink, black and white on hand coloured flowery background square card Hi Craft Addicts! Today's card is a result of using a background I have created myself using Tim Holtz Distress Crayons along with dies from Toni Darroch's Stamps by Me. How I made this card:- I had been playing with some Tim Holtz Distress Crayons to make the flowery background (it measures approx 5" square as the card itself is a 6" one - to do it, I used Spun Sugar and Picked Raspberry, experimenting with the "strokes"  I used - it took a bit of time to get the effect right - I used normal stamping paper this time rather than Yupo as it gives a totally different effect. I also used a paintbrush and some water to blend them in even more. Once I was happy with what I had done, I then added some green alcohol marker to create the stalks and some faded blue and yellow spots dotted around the pattern. I then edged it with a black alcohol marker. ...

Happy Birthday - Meerkat on desert background 7x5in card - Day 110 of my 365 day challenge

Happy Birthday - Meerkat on desert background 7x5in card -  Day 110 of my 365 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! I really enjoyed making this Birthday card - especially colouring in the background which I am pleased with how it turned out. How I made this card:- I had previously cut out a few of the Meerkats (a Tattered Lace die) using various cardstocks and thought that this Kraft card one would work well on a desert background. I therefore cut a piece of smooth white card to 110x145mm approximately and started to colour it in. I used Tim Holtz Distress Inks to do this-  Tea Dye, Dried Marigold and Rusty Hinge are the main ones used - making it darker at both the top and the bottom. I also added a hint of green to the centre of the panel. I then cut out the oval label panel in the middle of it (I think it was either a Tonic Studios or Tattered Lace die) - I also cut a similar panel using a darker Kraft cardstock. I stuck the large layer on to the fro...
