Moxie Fab World - Dont throw it away!

When I saw this challenge, I new immediately that I would have to use this empty box I found in my daughters bathroom (she tells me I am extremely embarrassing!!!!).

This is what I used to make my card:-

And here is the finished card for Moxie Fab World:-

The black and white card is Bella! from spotlight and the gems and flower are Kaisecraft, the rest is from the left over box. I hope you like it. I think the sentiment inside should read 'You inspire me!'

Playdate Cafe Challenge

I made this card for the Playdate Cafe challenge PDCC124

I used coordination& bazzil  card stock, paper from Cosmo Cricket and Cavallini (last years calendar),

a graphic 45 die cut, paper doillie. The pearl flourish is from Kaisercraft.

Runway Inspired Challenge

I made this card for the  runway inspired challenge RIC#8 Its all made from random paper card. I hand sketched the dress, then cut it out, embossed it with the rose cuttlebug folder, then covered it with versa mark and clear embossed it. I added the flowers, pearls, gems and lace then mounted the dress with dimensional tape. I used a piece of black sequin trim for a belt. Then I stamped the sentiment on a small piece of white card and mounted it with pearls for a finishing touch. It's certainly bright isn't it!

I'm also entering this in CAS-ual Friday challenge - bold and beautiful - black with pastels.

I hope there is enough whit space and the colours aren't too bright!

 

A Triple Challenge!

  I used the colours from the Color Throwdown CTD183 challenge, the layout from the Mojo Monday (turned at 90%), the image is from the City Crafter Challenge (provided by the Graphic Fairy). The paper is from My Minds Eye. I used Dusty Concord and faded jeans distress ink for the flowers and background strip. I found the picket fence in a local craft shop.

Another City Crafter Challenge

When I saw this image of the bird I knew at once I had to do something with the birdcage I got at a Xmas sale (it had a really tacky picture in it).  I machine stitched around the image and distressed the edges with antique linen. I printed the image out twice and cut out the bird, then  dry embossed it, paper tole style and stuck it on with mounted tape. I used a leaf vine trim and inked white roses with marigold distress ink. The bird bath is a Prima element (I've been hanging to this one.) Then I finished it off with lace around the base and ribbon and rose on top.  The image is from the graphic fairy

Playdate Cafe PDCC123

I made this card for the latest Playdate Cafe challenge - great bold colours!

I used a La Blanche stamp and clear embossed on the 4 colours. The green and teal are  co-ordination card, the other 2 are white gloss card brayered with distress inks. I used to punches for the square and rounded corners.
I used a cuttlebug folder to give texture to the white background and the sentiment is typed on my computer.

Forever in our hearts

made this card for the City Crafter Challenge, to make something about whatever is in your heart at the moment. We have recently got 2 new puppies and I was going to make the card about them, but then I decided to make it about our Westies, who both passed away last year. I love our 2 pups, but I miss Kayleigh and Mackie every day. I'm sure time will soften the feelings of loss, they were wonderful companions.

The image is a digital freebie from SJs-  Little Musings blog, The paper is Basic Grey and the I die cut the frame. There is a heart charm hanging from the bow. The photo is take at night so the light isn't great.

Kayleigh and Mackie
RIP my babies.
