right date but apparently not as i have just noticed it is not there and have uploaded manually our hostess for today s challenge mary would love to see your easter inspired creations you can enter anything you fancy it doesn t have to just be cards as long as it meets the challenge and doesn t exceed the 15 total challenges entered rule my card base was made using a tattered lace die ornamental centre stepper i really like these die sets tattered lace dies are often too fancy for me but these are really useful you get the score and cut lines done for you and more importantly all the mats and layers can be done quickly and easily this set in particular came with lots of embellishments to dress my stepper card i used a background paper i had from a kit which i cut with the dies and distressed the edges my brief for the card was easter lambs chicks and daffodils so i used some stock images i had on a cd and imported them into my serif craft artist 2 love that programme and created the images to embellish my card it s not totally to my taste but the commissioner loved it and that s what counts posted by j at 22 46 3 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest monday 7 march 2016 challenge 159 at crafty cardmakers go green pam is hosting our go green challenge in honour of st patrick s day on 17th march so let s see all your green creations please you can enter anything you fancy it doesn t have to just be cards as long as it meets the challenge and doesn t exceed the 15 total challenges entered rule my card was a simple design that i made for a friend who had a bereavement my cards rarely have many layers on them and this was no exception i used my favourite 6 x 6 base card and a flowery and a striped and a plain green paper from a dreamees cd for the background paper i love this part of using cds you can pretty much guarantee the papers from the same family will go together i started with a square of the striped paper and down the centre i stuck a strip of the floral design i used the plain green paper to make the mat for my topper which was a woodware stamp stamped with a green distress ink i used distress ink around the edge of the topper after i had rounded the corners and coloured the flowers with the same distress ink i stamped the sentiment onto the same colour card as the topper and edged it with a promarker and distressed it with the same distress ink as the topper finally i added some pearls to either side posted by j at 13 01 2 comments email this blogthis share to x share to

cards i admire the skill that goes into making them but i m never quite happy with my own efforts this card is much more my cup of tea i made it for a good friend who had reached the big 50 birthday my base card was a scallop edge 6 x 6 white card onto this i layered a mat of plain pink and put onto that my topper which i had stamped with this floral shoe stamp chloe s and simply coloured it with my promarkers before i stuck the topper down i wrapped some white chiffon ribbon around the top left corner onto this i stuck a double bow made from the same ribbon and in the centre of that i suck a white flower coloured with some distress ink my friend wasn t 100 happy about the number of birthdays lol so i included it as a very teeny centre to the big flower finally i stamped a small sentiment on the pink base card and stuck that on with a foam pad and put a couple of stamped flowers from another impression of the shoe stamp that i had coloured and cut out onto the shoe to give it some texture posted by j at 12 30 5 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest monday 8 february 2016 crafty cardmakers challenge 157 love love love julie is hosting our love love love challenge as valentine s day is just around the corner we want to see your love themed creations you can enter anything you fancy it doesn t have to just be cards as long as it meets the challenge and doesn t exceed the 15 total challenges entered rule my own project this time was something i made at a recent craft retreat run by anna marie designs and it is mixed media i am assuming it is for home decor it s definitely too big to go on a card i m not 100 sure i like it but i am a firm believer in trying everything because you never know when a crafty technique will sneak up and hook you the base is an mdf heart shape with a matching frame that was glued onto it we then put on our rubber gloves and covered scrap ribbon hession gauze and various other materials in a black gunky stuff called structuriser it was messy having covered all of the heart with the bits we left it to dry the following day we coated any parts of the mdf showing with black gesso and left that to dry too then the fun part colouring it we used on this occasion viva decor inka gold colours but i would imagine you could use any creamy paste or gilding wax to get the same effect finally we went over the top randomly with a bit of pinflair on our finger and then sprinkled some crystal glass over the top unfortunately it doesn t really show very well in the picture and trust me i tried very hard to get a good shot but i hope you get the idea i have come to the conclusion that super messy is not my thing paints yes the gunky structuriser i think i ll give it a miss and as an added extra i thought i d add a card i made using a shape from my brother scan n cut this was a 6 x 6 black card base with an overlay in white with hearts cut out i sized the hearts down slightly and then cut them in red and stuck them inside the apertures finally i stamped some suitable words on the red hearts and added a hand cut tag with a sentiment on it inside it just says happy valentines day posted by j at 12 49 6 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest sunday 7 february 2016 keeping it simple last week i made a card for my friends birthday my mission to use stash i have bought continues and i found these white cards with the die cut edge in the drawer i used a woodware stamp on a piece of white stamping card and stamped it in black archival ink then i coloured the centres of the flowers and the leaves with promarkers and coloured everything with one of the new spectrum noir clear sparkle pens i gave the part of the card under the diecut a bit of glitz by using a nuovo glue pen to cover the area and then covered that with glamour dust i did the same thing in the black line border for the stamp before i stuck the topper on with 1mm foam pads i edged it with the yellow promarker finally i die cut a sentiment and coloured that with the same yellow this was a really easy card to make and very effective i really like woodware stamps for

can interpret that in many differrent ways it could be to welcome a new baby a new home marriage etc i am sure you can think of many different news you can inspire us with this challenge is being hosted by sally so it will be her job to choose our winner and top 5 i am still on a mission to use up my stash so my new baby card this time used a sheet i think i printed off at some time from a crafters companion or debbie moore cd but it might have been one from a kit sometimes you need a card in a hurry and there is no shame in making use of something ready prepared sometimes i do that by printing off a card kit from a cd and sometimes i use a sheet i have already this card uses my favourite 6 x 6 square base with the corners rounded off i don t know why but it seems to look a bit more professional when i do that the base layer has layers already incorporated into it probably using the shadow tools such as those in serifs craft artist however i cut out and added the pocket and tag separately myself and the teddy bear topper at a jaunty angle the baby s name was added using silver letter peel offs i don t really use peel offs any more although i suspect their use will be resurrected in time as most things come round again grins but i do use the border and letters still posted by j at 12 26 10 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest tuesday 29 december 2015 crafty cardmakers challenge 154 snow lin is hosting today and she has chosen snow for her theme i am sure there are still lots of snowy creations to be made for christmas as it is the last challenge of the year kim thought that it would be nice to add a prize and this is the stash our lucky winner will get it s another inked background from me my base card was my trusty 6 x 6 square that i stamped with a snowflake die in silver ink onto that i layered some silvery blue card and then some silver embossed card i layered onto this a topper that i had done using a sheena douglass stamp and a selection of pink blue and lavender distress inks masking the couple the moon and the lamps my couple were coloured in using speccie noir pencils which i blended i decided to use glitter for my snowflakes in the scene but flower soft for the snow on the bridge and at the base finally my sentiment was stamped along the bottom of the card it came from a woodware stamp set posted

this time and her theme is twas the night before christmas she would love to see your creations that depict one of the lines from the poem if you need to be reaquainted with the words they are set out in full on the challenge website crafty cardmakers more most crafters will recognise that they have a cycle of favoured techniques i have always liked stamping and inking and just lately my preference has been for doing that again my mum was always the scene builder of the two of us and for some time after she died i just shied away from doing it because it brought back memories of when we stamped together but it s almost 4 years now since i lost her and i ve been tentatively having a go again my base card is my favoured 6 x 6 inch square onto which i layered a black and white polka dot mat i used a square of sheena douglass stamping card for my topper and started by masking off the moon with a mask i cut myself and created hillsides with a clarity mask ink colours were denim blue chipped sapphire shaded lilac iced spruce and soot black and a touch of brushed corduroy to tint the roof of each house i used hobby arts country scenes stamps to make my village scene it had the really useful fencelines and small trees the santa and moon stamp was from a set i got free with a magazine as did the twas the night before christmas words that i stamped and embossed with silver fine detail powder you can just about read the words unfortunately it s not come out too clear in the photo lastly i went over various parts with my wink of stella pen the moon the snow and added a touch of glitter to the trees using a quickie glue pen and some glamour dust now i m in the mood i think i will do some more toppers for the remaining christmas cards i have to make such fun posted by j at

who has a winter or even worse a christmas birthday our design team leader lin s is 27th december and my late mum s was the 19th so for our challenge this time we want to see your winter birthday creations josephine is hosting this one and will get to choose our winner top 5 i ve been venturing back to distress ink backgrounds recently so i decided to make mine a wintery sunset sunrise scene where the sun is pinkish rather than the luscious yellow of summer first thing i did wa s to shade the background of a square piece of stamping card because my stamp woodware is a silhouette if you stamp the trees first there is the chance you can smudge the image during the blending process and also muddy the effect so using a mask i made the hilly bits at the bottom then used the same colours to make the top of the sky in the middle of the two i blended in two shades of pink a deeper round area in the middle having done that i stamped over the top and using a quickie glue pen added some glitter to my tree branches the card base is my favourite 6 x 6 and i ran the front part of it through the cut n b...
