Recently the Hero Arts Fans Scramble took place over at Facebook and I took part. Char set us a challenge to use 2 or more Hero Arts stamps - so I pulled out some old wooden block stamps to make this quick card
I started by stamping the Postcard stamp and hand cutting it out. I used a black Memento pen to colour around the edge. I then used the flower stamp and the Happy Birthday sentiment to finish off the card. I used some yellow Altenew ink to sponge over the tag. I used an embossing folder to make the background panel and edged it with black before adding to a white card.
It was great to use some of my older stamps.
Hi... I'm back to share an Autumn card for the challenge at Sweet Stampin' Challenge blog. Our theme for this week is "Autumn" - which for me is strange as it's Spring time here in NZ
Hi there. It's my turn to share at Die Cut Divas. Our challenge this month is All Kinds of Holdiays... and our sponsor is Cheapo Dies
Hi there..... well I haven't been doing much card making over the week or so.... as I've been making masks.... I made myself a no-fog mask and wore it at work. Well won't you know it... people asked me to make some.... so sewed all weekend and then had to take a day off work on Wednesday to sew all day... Actually I was home as the bench was to be installed. Which is another story of it's own!!!!
I needed to get some more material - I had an order for 5 masks with a Maori design as part of the daily prizes for our Maori Language week celebrations - so headed to a local shopping area where there is an shop called Ike's Emporium. It stocks a multitude of things. They buy end of lines etc. Their stock of materials is awesome and also very reasonable. I found a variety of Polyensian designs and found some Maori looking designs as well.
Whilst in Browns Bay, I popped into one of the stationery stores and picked up a pack from an older magazine. The store keeps the extra freebies and sells them for a small price. I chose a Christmas pack that had a stamp set of Christmas images, a little poinsettia die, some patterned papers, some preprinted cards and some chipboard sheets of images. So when I saw Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge was No Stamping Allowed I knew I could whip up a quick card with the chipboard images.
I took one of the cards and used the back to make my green panel. I then used the sentiment, birds and flowers from the chipboard. I used the mini dimensionals that came with the kit to add them all to the card and then added it all to a navy blue base. A few gold sequins finished it off.
Welcome back to another challenge at Watercooler Wednesday. This week Heidi is our hostess with an Anything Goes with a Masculine Twist.
I cut my panel into three pieces and added to a dark green card base. I then took the Altenew Apothecary label stamp set and used some Mountain Pine ink. I used my MISTI as I inked the stamp 4 times to get a good dark coverage. I then took an Altenew sentiment and white embossed it onto the label.
Come and join in the fun at Watercooler Wednesday Challenge and check out the project from the other designers. Then take our challenge and link up your project to the challenge post. We'd love to have you join us. You have until Monday at 5 pm Mountain Standard Time (Tuesday at 11.00 am NZ time ) to link up your project.
Time for another challenge at Sweet Stampin' Challenge blog. And our theme this week is "Pets"
I chose to make a card with some cats on it. A couple of months ago we said farewell to our beloved black cat Snoopy...
I used some Patterned Paper for the background and used some Memory Box die cut cats. I added a Hello sentiment from Altenew's Mega Labels. A very CAS card.
Do come and join the challenge at Sweet Stampin' this week.
