Leopard on a branch small wall hanging -  day 247 of my 366 day challenge Hi Craft addicts Pollyanna Pickering's beautiful artwork features once again in this project for day 247 of my 366 day challenge. How to make this wall hanging... I first of all took a small MDF "Plaque" (it measures 105x90mm ) and painted it on both sides using the "Chocolate Bronze" Cosmic Shimmer Metallic Guilding polish. it gives a really great textured feel to the MDF Whilst waiting for it to dry, I cut two pieces of the "animal print" backing paper I had left over from the "Walk in the Wild" Card kit to fit (95x85mm) and once it was dry glued them both to each side. I then took two of the "Leopard" image from the accompanying "Walk in the Wild" paper popper pad and cut around the image so that it looked like a banner. Before gluing one of them down, I attached some "wired twine " to the centre of th...

Take it Easy - Leopard on branch - Pollyanna Pickering - 5" x 7" card - Day 180 of my 366 day challenge

Take it Easy - Leopard on branch - Pollyanna Pickering 5" x 7" card -  Day 180 of my 366 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! So for today's challenge, I have decided to use one of the inserts from the " Walk in the Wild " insert collection from Pollyanna Pickering that Creative Crafting Wolrld sells. I really love this image as it is so striking and thought it might be an idea to cut it into different sections and see what happens! So, I first of all cut the 2 patterned edges off and glued them to either side of the card so that it matched on both sides. I then cut off the main image and added it to some cardstock (any will do but I used Lynda Chapman's black version) and separated the leopard section from the 2 black parts. I then took the section that had the sentiment " Take it Easy " on it and turned it upside down to make sure first that it was in the right place. I cut it out and using a tape runner, attached it to the inside of...

Take it easy... Leopard on branch 7" square card -  day 175 of my 366 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! So I am once again using one of the wonderful images of a leopard l ying on a branch that is part of the " Walk in the Wild " cardmaking kit from Pollyanna Pickering that Creative Crafting World brought out a few months ago. I first of all cut out a scalloped circle using the " Pin dot Circle " die from Tattered Lace and hand coloured it using blue, pink , orange and purple " Generation INX " pads and stuck the round topper on to it. I then cut out a strip of black card using one of the pre-installed templates on my Brother Scan n Cut and placed one on the left hand side of the card (after I had glued the blue and white patterned border that came with the " Walk in the Wild " kit on it) and stuck it down. With the remaining piece, I cut it into two and stuck one part on the left hand edge of the card and measuring ...

Leopard on branch Pollyanna Pickering desgn C6 Kraft card - Day 156 of my 366 day challenge

Leopard on branch Pollyanna Pickering desgn C6 Kraft card -  Day 156 of my 366 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! So for today's card, I have once again used the leopard on a tree image from Pollyanna Pickering's "Walk in the Wild" popper paper pad (from Creative Crafting World).  This time I have used it with a small C6 Kraft card and one of the accompanying inserts from the same collection. I cut the front of the card in half so the inside of the card was showing and then wondered how I could use the insert**  and as you can see I have been able to decorate the card totally with just one sheet (with some left over). I glued a section of the fur part lengthways along the front of the card (both sides) and trimmed the sentiment (which reads " Have a great day " section to fit the inside of the card so it all matched with it reading sideways to make it slightly different. I also added another section of the fur design to the top of th...

Born to be Wild  - Leopard on branch (Pollyanna Pickering) C5 fancy edged card - Day 151 of my 366 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! I have once again used this stunning image from Pollyanna Pickering's "Walk in the Wild" Paper popper pad to make this card. I first of all decided that this fancy edged (wavy) C5 card would make a good basis for it so took out all the bracket shapes and the fold of the card. I then cut out the border strip (Tonic Studios "Beautiful Buckle Strip " die set in black cardstock and glued it along the centre of the card. I then placed the topper in the middle of it using foam pads to raise it up and added one of the "Born to be Wild" sentiments that come in the pad to the right of it. I also added some " Pale Gold " Nuvo crystal drops around the edges of the brackets. For the inside of the card, I used one of the matching inserts - "You're one in a million"   that comes with the ca...
