Smile... T-shirt A6 card - 365 day challenge

Image
  Hi Craft addicts!       Today's card for my 365 day challenge is using an older stamp set from Visible Image and no dies are in sight... I stamped the T-shirt image out on to some white card using Gina K Obsidian Black ink and then added the skull and Smile sentiment to the centre of it again with the same ink. I then used one of Crafter's Companion's Spectrum Noir Tri-blender markers to colour it in. I used one of Hunkydory's punches to add the notched corners to an A6 white card. I trimmed the main panel so that it fitted the front of the card, added skulls to each corner and then rounded the corners with another of their punches and edged it with a Black alcohol marker. I used a blending brush to add some blue shading around the t-shirt. For the card itself, I used an aperture diecut that I hadn't used to add some colour to the front of the card - I used blues and yellows as I thought it would co-ordinate with the main topper. I then used a couple of the Bubble...

Happy Birthday - Owl be seeing you...7x5in card - 365 day challenge

Image
Hi Craft addicts!       Today's handmade card for my 365 day challenge is one uses stamps and dies from a variety of Companies.... I first of all stamped the Scribbly owl from Jane Gill's Woodware range on to some white stamping card using Gina K's Obsidian black ink.  I also added the Happy Birthday to you sentiment directly stamping it on to the topper. I then coloured it in using both Spectrum Noir Triblender markers (brown shades) along with some other colours for the eyes and flowers - you could of course colour it in using any media! I also used some of Tim Holtz's Salty Ocean Distress Oxide ink on a glass mat, spritzed it with some water and then added an edge to the design. I used the largest of the Petit Picot edge Rectangle dies from Spellbinders (I really love this design) and cut it out and then trimmed it slightly to give a different effect to the border. I used a dotty pen (from Crafter's Companion) to attach it to the front of a 7" x 5" blac...

Wishing you a Happy Birthday... flowers and leaves square card - 365 day challenge

Image
  Hi Craft addicts!       Today's handmade card for my 365 day challenge is a square card (I am trying to make more of these as I prefer rectangle ones to be honest)... I decided to stencil directly on to the front of a 6" square card (the corners of which I rounded using the Prism Corner punch from Hunkydory) and so used a Honey Doo Crafts stencil and some green ink to create a centre panel. I then stamped out the Passion Flower image (from Jane Gill's collection by Woodware Stamps) on to some white card using Gina K Obsidian Black ink. I coloured it in using Greens, Purples and pinks Spectrum Noir Triblend markers until I was happy with the result and fussy cut around it leaving a narrow border around the design. I placed it on to the front of the card using foam pads to give it some dimension. I stamped out the Wishing you a Happy Birthday sentiment on to some white card (again using Gina K ink) and then cut around it and stuck it with some glue to some purple car...

Love - Floral spray 7" x 5" top fold card - 365 day challenge

Image
  Hi Craft addicts!       Today's latest handmade card for my 365 day challenge is something you can send at any time and is great to make! I first of all stamped the Floral Wonder image (from Woodware Stamps and designed by Jane Gill) on to some white stamping card using Gina K Obsidian Black ink. I then coloured it in using Crafter's Companion Spectrum Noir Tri-blenders which I find really good to colour in with but you could use any media to do this with - am going to try watercolour paints next! When I was happy with it. I then took a blending tool and added some Broken China Tim Holtz Distress Oxide ink to colour the background I then took some blue watercolour ink, added it to a glass mat and picked some up with a paintbrush and spattered it over the image. I used a picot edged rectangular die to cut a panel out and edged it with a black alcohol marker. I used PVA glue to attach the panel to the front of a top fold card (Paper Boutique landscape cards) and roun...
