Autumn Greetings - leaves DL card - 365 day challenge

Image
Hi Craft addicts!      I have created a series of cards using the Autumn Blessings collection from Crafter's Companion along with various other products to complete them! I had great fun making this simple but effective DL card. I used a variety of Aladine Izink sprays and spritzed a yellow piece of card (from Tattered Lace) to create an Autumn feel background and left it to dry. Once it was, I used the Skeleton Leaves Die set from the Autumn Blessings collection and cut the three leaves out. I had previously used Creative Expressions Sue Wilson Slimline Decorative Rectangle Aperture Trio die and cut some of Lynda Chapman's Black card I then stuck it on to some gold mirror card and trimmed it to fit and then edged it with a black alcohol marker. I then used a dotty tape pen (from Crafter's Companion Gemini range) to stick the leaves inside the apertures and then stuck it to the front of a DL card (having previously cut the corners of the card and scored three lines on the...

Hi Craft addicts!       As it is now officially Autumn, I have created a series of cards using the Autumn Blessings collection from Crafter's Companion along with various other products to complete them for my 365 day challenge! The first one is this Congratulations card... I first of all used a variety of Aladine Izink sprays and spritzed a yellow piece of card (from Tattered Lace) to create an Autumn feel background. Once it was dry, I trimmed it to fit the Autumnal Foliage 3D embossing folder, placed it inside and put it through my Big Shot foldaway cutting machine. I then edged it with a black alcohol marker. For the main topper, I took a tag from Hunkydory's Prism range and using some of their Washi tape to mask the centre, coloured both sides of the tag with Yellow and Orange inks (Hybrid inks) and left it to dry before taking the tape away. Once dry, I then used the Autumnal Tree layering stamps, following the numbers and used Tim Holtz Distress Oxide inks (Walnut ...

It's the Little Things..Conker 4in card - 365 day challenge

Hi Craft addicts!       Today's card for my 365 day challenge is a very quick and easy one that you can easily make into a larger card giving more white space. I first of all rounded the corners of a 4" white card using a Hunkydory's punch. I had a small scalloped edged rectangle from a previous project (Creative Expressions Slimline dies) and decided that the Conker stamp from the Autumn Blessings Pumpkin Patch stamp set from Crafter's Companion and stamped it on to the card using Gina K Obsidian Black ink. I then used Spectrum Noir's Triblender markers to colour it in, trying to create the impression of its' shiny shell. Once I was fairly happy with the result I then stuck it to some hand coloured card with a tape pen. The pennant part of the design is 2 dies from the Paper Boutique's Essential Nesting Dies Vol IV and I cut them out in the same card stock as the Conker image and stuck them together again using a tape pen. I stuck the pennant down first in...
