Birthday Wishes... abstract stars  A6 cream deckle edge card Hi Craft addicts! I have been playing with Alcohol inks on Yupo paper (it has a great effect) and wondered what I could do with the background I had made and came up with this card... How I made this card:- I first of all took a pre cut panel of 5" x 7" Ranger Translucent Yupo paper (it is synthetic and recyclable which makes it more environmentally friendly) and added a variety of alcohol inks (again Ranger) on to it to create a varied background - see below for one like it.... I then left it to dry (though it does do that almost immediately) and then used the Synergy Die (Paper Piece 5) from Toni Darroch's Stamp by Me Range to cut it out - I did add a sheet of paper over it as I didn't want any of the colour to come off it so made 2 for the price of one! As the die itself is about 8", the die-cut had a lot of edges "open" so decided to trim three of the stars out of i...

Good Luck Sunburst Cream and black DL card

Good Luck Sunburst Cream and black DL card Hi Craft addicts! Well it is nearly the weekend and the sun has begun to shine here and I thought it appropriate to post this card which is very simple to make... How I made this card:- I first of all cut out two die-cuts of the Synergy Lattice 3 die, one in black card and the other in cream/ivory (see below for details). I then cut the black one in half (I didn't want to use the solid piece of the card) and then glued it to the front of a white DL card, making sure that half of the circle was free! I will use the cream die-cut another time but decided to paper piece the main parts into either side of the design and then 3 points of the sunburst - I used Cosmic Shimmer PVA glue to do this... I also used the semi circle of the cream die-cut and glued it to just below the circle again using Cosmic Shimmer PVA glue. I felt that the above needed something extra, so I used the Good Luck sentiment from one of Paper Boutique...

Happy Birthday - Flowers on extended topper  DL landscape card Hi Craft addicts! I really like this new Synergy die from Toni Darroch's Stamps by Me range along with a stamp from Woodware.... How I made this card:- I first of all cut out the Synergy Die in black card (Lynda Chapman's Paper Boutique). There is only one half with the decorative panel so I used my Scoreboard to score down the middle of it and folded it in half. I then added glue to the panel (and half of the square) and attached it to the front of a white DL card (landscape). I coloured some of the spaces in using an orange alcohol marker (making sure that it didn't bleed through to the back of the card). I stamped the flowers panel (from Woodware Petals & Swirls) on to some white stamping card (using Black Amalgam ink from Gina K) and coloured it in using Oranges, Purples, Blues and Greens Spectrum Noir Tri-blend markers). I trimmed around it and stuck it to the middle of the square ...
