Forever - Butterfly (shimmering) - birthday card -  Day 229 of my 366 day challenge   Hi Craft addicts! I have been playing around with colouring Mirri card with alcohol markers and really like the effect it creates so have made this birthday card for day 229 of my 366 day challenge . For the card itself, I took a 6" white card and cut part of the front of using the "Scalloped" edged "Pearl Borders" die from Tattered Lace. I then took a sheet of "foliage" acetate from Hunkydory and cut it to fit just below the scallops. Luckily this has sufficient "blocks" to allow me to used Cosmic Shimmer PVA glue to stick it to the card. Using my Brother Scan n Cut and the web app "CANVAS", I cut out a jagged edged border strip in "lilac" and glued it to the edge. Using my Spectrum Noir alcohol markers in blue (TB4 ),   orange (FL2) , pink (PP2) and yellow (CT1) , I coloured in the butterfly which I h...

Butterflies and flourishes - 3 hearts wall hanging Happy Birthday -  Day 107 of my 366 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! For today's challenge, I have made this wall hanging using a variety of media. You can get these MDF hearts from a variety of suppliers in different shapes and sizes, but the ones I have used are approximately 8cm high. Heart One This one was painted on both sides using black  Pebeo acrylic Gesso paint and left it to dry.  Once it was dry, i used an anti-static bag over the surface and then embossed the flourishes and butterflies with Onyx Black Versafine ink and gold powder I then added some gold coloured " Bling flourishes " at the top. Heart Two I then decoupaged the 2nd heart using the green checked paper from Craft Consortium (I used the pure adhesive matt glue from Tonic Studios, Forever Moments ).

Hummingbird monochrome square card - Happy birthday -  Day 106 of my 366 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! It is a rainy day here today but at least it is Friday! So for today's challenge, I have made a monochrome card using the T attered Lace Hummingbird Tapestry die as the main focal point. I first of all chose the scalloped edged white 6" square card - This particular design is from Kanban but Hunkydory do them too. (You could also make this card using your electronic cutting machines). I cut out the main black wavy edged frame using my Brother Scan n Cut (designed in Canvas) .and stuck it in the middle of the card. I then cut the Tattered Lace Hummingbird Tapestry die in both black and white cardstock and glued them together slightly offsetting them so it has a shadow effect. I then placed it over the main frame and stuck it down. I then cut out the yellow dragonfly using a Sue Wison die and  glued it in the top left hand corner. I also use...

Robot in oval frame 7" x 5" white card -  Day 104 of my 366 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! So for today's challenge I have made this fun card that could be for a child of all ages! I have been trying to get to use some of the die cuts I have and so have used this Tattered Lace frame and a topper from the " Birthdays" book of toppers from Hunkydory as the main focal points. First of all, I hand coloured the front of the card with Tim Holtz Distress inks trying to co-ordinate them with some of the colours in the topper. I used some cut paper and brushed the sides of the card with more inks to give it a more defined frame in the darker of the blues. I also used the yellow/blues on the frame so that it wasn't so white and stuck the Hunkydory Robot topper in to the centre of it and glued it to the middle of the card. I used a Spellbinders flower die as the backing layer for the sentiment " Have a brilliant day " which I got from...
