Bring on the Bling....

Hello there,
Over at www.myshericrafts.com design team member Peachy has asked us to make a card or project utilizing as much bling as you can muster lol to celebrate Jewel Day on 13 March. So it is time to bring out your glitter, jewels cosmic shimmer you name it bring it out to play.

For this challenge I chose to make this card.

 

The card is a 5x7 and I have used Kaisercraft papers which are double sided so you are always going to match up colours. I embossed the back paper using tied together folder. I used a SB to cut away the edge of the top layer and wrapped around a little cream lace. the sentiment is one big stamp and I inked the edge with a pale blue embossing ink and added the holographic powder. I used the cut offs to add to its edge.

The huge rose I added glitter to and a touch of stickles to the leaves. The clear gems I added to the points and just for double measure I added the shiniest butterfly I could.

 

Right now it is your turn to join in the fun and link up your master piece but remember it is for jewel day so think like a magpie!

Vintage Guy Card

Hello again,
Today over at www.myshericrafts.com it is my turn to pick the theme and I chose vintage guy card which must include some inking on it.

This card is for an order for a young man turning 18 who likes the cinema. I chose to make a large A5 card this time.

 

As you can see the card blank is deep red which reminded me of the old cinema seats which were quite plush. The ticket paper is from MME which I embossed and then distressed and then inked with Fire Brick and Black Soot. The black striped paper is from HOTP and it has been in my stash for years. The images are from Kaisercraft as are the two stamps I have used. I printed out sentiment myself. For a little throw back the Live Life stamp is matted on to red velvet paper.

 

Thanks for stopping by today, now take a peek at the other girls creations and then join in.

Pimp Up My Ride Dude!

Hello,
Today I have a guy card to share with you. I had to make a card for a young guy turning 18 who loves his car.
I found this decoupage in my stash along with a sheet from an old road map. I cut the 18 out using Don Juan and my Cricut. The sentiment I printed and cut out using my Spellbinder die along with a selection of cogs. The map I embossed using "hounds tooth".

Thanks for stopping by today.

So here is my card for the challenge, isn't he so cute...

For this card I used a 6x6 cream card blank and removed a small strip from the front edge. I then used a soft red rose paper to cover the front. I used a length of grosgrain ribbon along one side but I added two tucks at the bottom which I added a heart button to.
I chose to bring out the green in the paper by making the mats for the image and patterned paper along with the flourish too.
The cute image comes with the sentiment underneath as well as without. It is called Bear Immeasurably Loved, I coloured it in using my ProMarker pens.

Lacy Sunshine Challenge 25-Bingo

Hello,

 Over at www.lacysunshinechallengeblog.blogspot.co.uk this week the challenge is to follow the game of BINGO. I have chosen to use the top line and make a card with a bow, pearls and ribbon on it.

The card is a 5x7 top fold in pearlesent white. The paper with the text on was free in a magazine and says "always look for the rainbows in your life" I then used lavender/black card which when embossed the black shows the lavender through. I used some white lace ribbon under the mats which hold the coloured image. Again this week it is a image I had coloured in before Christmas (another one down for this year lol) and so I added a ribbon flower and bow and 3 pearls to bring it all together. The sentiment is a Verve stamp and I have used TH ink pad in dusty concord throughout.
