Just a note... boy with puppy DL card - 365 day challenge

Image
  Hi Craft addicts!       Today's latest handmade card for my 365 day challenge is this bright and cheerful card that would be suitable for a young boy. I first of all coloured a piece of white stamping card using Izink dye based inks to create a cheerful background which I then spritzed with water and left it to dry. Once it was dry I used the largest of a DL slimline rectangle die and cut the background out. I attached it to some of Lynda Chapman's Black card with a solid tape pen and trimmed it so there was a narrow border all around it. I then used the same tape pen and stuck the whole mat layer on to the front of a DL white card which I had previously rounded the corners. I stamped out the James image from Linnie Pink on to some white stamping card using Gina K Obsidian Black ink and then coloured it in using Spectrum Noir Tri-blend markers. I used the co-ordinating die and cut it out and then as I felt it sort of melted into the background, stuck it to some bla...

Hi again! Well, we are in lockdown again so why not make this fun card to take your mind off things! It is so good to have images suitable for young boys and the men in your life and so used the Will Stamp and die set from Lillie Pink (it isn't available at the moment separately but can be obtained in the full set on Create & Craft here I first of all stamped it on to some white stamping card and coloured him in using Spectrum Noir Triblend markers (you could colour Will using a favourite football team colours etc).

Using some black and white striped paper (I can't remember where it is from but it is either Hunkydory or Creative Crafting World) and stuck it along the centre of an A6 white card, trimming it to fit. I still have some sentiments from an old collection from Craftwork Cards and used the ...

Hope you have a blast - space and aliens 6in shaped card -  Day 52 of my 365 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! I had coloured in the blue topper and it reminded me of a space scene so thought I would use it to make this fun card that could be suitable for anyone interested in aliens! How I made this card:- As I mentioned above, I made the circle topper by cutting a piece of stamping card using a Tattered Lace die and then a slightly larger one in black card. I then used some Altenew inks (mainly blues and blacks) to colour the smaller one - flicking some water on it and then dabbing the excess off to make it look a bit space like (I also thought about using it for underwater). I then stuck it to the black layer and used a white Gel pen to create the faux stitching. Meanwhile, I used a blue alcohol marker (Spectrum Noir BT7 old style) to create the borders on a 6" (approx) scalloped edged card. I then took the mask from the Out of this World set (from the For the ...
