Happy Birthday Fairy and flowers 7x5in landscape card Hi Craft addicts! Am back in the world of the internet after a few days and thought I would make this Fairy themed Birthday card and here is how I made it using some Hunkydory and Rare Earth products.... How I made this card:- The background is one I created using one sheet from Hunkydory's Prism Colouring Pad Vol.2 - I coloured it in using purples and yellow Tim Holtz Distress and Rare Earth inks - I placed some on a glass mat directly and used a paintbrush to blend the colours in. Whilst it was drying, I used some medium width ultra strong red liner tape to add a border to the right hand side of a cream/ivory 7x5in card (landscape/tentfold) - I had previously placed the topper on to the card to make sure it will fit. I removed the liner and added some black foil to it and burnished it until there was no glue exposed.  I then stamped the Fairy image (from Rare Earth's Fantasy Stamp range) on to some ...

Sending you Furry Good Wishes A6 card -  Day 311 of my 365 day challenge HI Craft addicts! Today's card for day 311 of my 365 day challenge is a fun general card which I have hand stamped and coloured using alcohol markers. How I made this card:- I stamped out the cat image (from Personal Impressions) on to some white card using Memento Tuxedo Black ink as I wanted to use alcohol markers. Once it was dry (which was almost immediate), I coloured the cat in using Prism (from Hunkydory) Browns series - 526 (Honey), 539 (Ginger) and 547 (Sepia) and then used Spectrum Noir Orange (CR10) and a Blue (TB3) for their apron and cupcake. I then cut around it leaving a narrow border all around. Using a PVA Glue, I then stuck it on to a pre cut deckle edge white panel (from Craft Creations) and then used a sponge dauber and the ink that was left on it from another project to colour around it. I also edged the whole panel with a black alcohol marker (the chisel end of a Prism ...

A flower does not think....just bloom hand coloured C6 card - Day 176 of my 365 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! I am really enjoying the effect stamping with an embossing ink, using white embossing powder and then colouring makes and this is one that I made last night. How I made this card:- I first of all decided that I would not have a panel on the front of the card and stamp directly on to it. I therefore used Rare Earth Clear Glass Speciality Embossing Powder to stamp the "If flowers... bloom" large sentiment on to it and covered it with True White Cosmic Shimmer Embossing Powder, removed the excess and embossed it with my heat gun. Once it was cool and I had made sure all of it had been embossed, I coloured over it using a variety of dye based inks - from Altenew (Greens, Reds, Orange and Yellow) and Tim Holtz's Mowed Lawn blending them all into each other so that it looked seamless. Once the colouring was done, I took a piece of kitchen roll and rem...

A Little note to cheer you up...hand coloured & stamped Lily C6 card Day 135 of my 365 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! Day 135 of my 365 challenge and this time I have made a "Cheer You Up" card using a Hunkydory For The Love of Stamps Lily, some foil and some dies. How I made this card:- I cut out the two nesting Label Tags (I think they are Tattered Lace but might not be) in a dark blue (shows as Turquoise in the picture) and then matted the smaller silver holographic Mirri card on top of it. I had previously cut out the circle die-cut in white card and whilst still in the die, had coloured it in using Blue distress/dye based inks, trying to make it lighter at the bottom.. I stamped out the lily (from the Lovely Lilies For The Love of Stamps collection) on to some white stamping card using Tuxedo Black Memento ink and coloured it in using Pink  shades of Spectrum Noir alcohol markers (PL1 and PL2) leaving some white at the tips of the petals. I also us...

Hello Lovely! Flowery hand stamped flower shaped card -  Day 121 of my 365 day challenge Hi Craft addicts! Nearly one third into my 365 day challenge and I have made this one today using Hunkydory For The Love of Stamps, Tattered Lace dies and inks. How I made this card:- To begin with I took the Floral Favourites For the Love of Masks stencil and coloured through one of the larger flowers using the Ocean Waves Altenew inks directly on to the front of a flower shaped card- placing them in alternate petals. I then took the corresponding stamp and, using Memento Tuxedo Black, stamped over the blue flowers - trying to get them in the right place of course! I also took one of the leaf stamps from the same set and stamped it in between the flowers using Parrot Altenew ink cube. I cut out the circle in red card using a Tattered Lace die and attached it to the card using Cosmic Shimmer PVA Glue. I then cut out the label tag from a Tonic Studios die (I think) in whi...

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 ...
