My Partners in Crafting Crime - Challenge 33


Here is my latest challenge for My Partners in Crafting Crime. The inspiration for this card came from the theme of homes, and also the colours for autumn. I put a little twist to this one and made it a "New Home" card with a little bit of glitz just so it was not so plain and flat. The stamp is from the Bows and Berries range and they have lots of lovely designs to choose from, to get your free stamp, why not visit http://www.bowsandberries.co.uk/. To view more designs and get a little inspiration to what you can make with these stamps, do take a look at http://www.mypartnersincraftingcrime.com/. See you again soon xx

Sweets and Treats

Hi there
This week I have another card ready for you, (been busy this week, haven't I?)
I have used the Butterfly Cake digistamp from Bows and Berries, big and bold design, giving you plenty of scope to "play" and add all sorts of embellishments.
Great fun again with this one, added ribbons,bows, gems and adhesive butterlies, together with lots of glitter, this design just screamed "glitter" to me when I saw it.
Why not have a look at the website and see what a fantastic range they have, you will be spoilt for choice, address is: http://www.bowsandberries.co.uk/. Why not take a look at more of the finished creations at http://www.mypartnersincraftingcrime.co.uk/.

Friday Freebie 23rd September



Here is my finished card for Jens Digistamp Challenge for the Friday Freebie 23rd September. As well as creating more detailed cards, I sometimes like to do simple too. This one is just the digistamp printed on to white card, coloured in and then using coloured chalks, blend edges with complimentary colour just to give the card a bit of definition. It is then matted and layered up on to coloured and mirror card, the colours of which were used to colour in image. I then took my Hougie board and design book and created a simple shaped front card to which I fixed my topper. To finish I used some coloured peel-offs and gems just to lift it a bit.
Great fun with these digistamps, so why not go and get yours from http://www.jensdigistamp.com/

New Release Challenge 14th September 2011


Hi again
Another challenge, this time from Jen's New Releases - A selection of stamps featuring the lovely Eva, this one obviously shows our lovely Eva with a cup of coffee, others in the new range are Eva with spotty dress and Eva with a fancy robe.
Great images to colour and lots of fun making them into whatever design your heart desires, there are so many options for embellishing your cards.
I have added glitter to the trousers and then added gems for the tiara, necklace, ring and decoration on shoes. I also added clear gems to the coffee mug with Eva's initial on it.
Loved doing this one as much as my last project.

Jen's Digistamp Challenge 9th Sept


Well, here it is peeps!! My very first Jens Digistamp Challenge entry, Birthday Ted he looks quite good, in fact I am very proud of my first efforts!!
I didn't have a clue on how I was going to construct my coloured in digistamp until this morning, then once I started I just don't know where it all came from.
I really loved working with this image, so easy to colour in and although you can't see by the photograph, I decided to print it out a few times and decoupage it, really effective in the flesh. But I could not find a better way to display it.
For your FREE digistamp simply go to: http://www.jensdigistamp.com/
HAPPY CREATING!!!
