GLOBAL DESIGN PROJECT #083

It has been awhile since I have joined in on a challenge. This week's theme at the Global Design Project http://www.global-design-project.com/2017/04/global-design-project-083-theme.htmltheme I thought would be an interesting one to join.

This is my entry.

I used Gold embossing as my sparkly bling to suit this week's theme.

I used the Garden In Bloom stamp set to create a golden scene. I then used straight reinkers and a paint brush to colour the flowers and the butterfly. I used Garden Green, Rose Red, Crushed Curry and Perfect Plum for my colours. The background of the picture is created by sponging Soft Sky and then using the splatter stamp from Timeless Textures, in both Soft Sky and stamped off Rose Red. I used this same stamp in Perfect Plum on my card base to give it a little texture as well.

Thank you for joining me today. Feel free to leave a comment.

Butterfly garden

Today the weather was stunning, the sun was shining, the birds were singing and some butterflies paid us a visit. With these images in my head, I went crafting.

I did something very unusual for me, and pulled out some pool party cardstock for my card base.

A garden is never complete without some butterflies joining the party.

Butterfly leaves for a friend

Well once again I have used the lovely and versatile stamp set, Sheltering Tree, but this time with a twist.

 

 

This card utilises a few sets to create this image. For the leaves instead of using the stamp from the Sheltering Tree set, I used the butterflies from Perpetual Birthday Calendar. The sentiment for this card is from the Sprinkles of Life stamp set.

 

 

The trunk of the tree is in Chocolate Chip ink. The leaves use Melon Mambo and Melon Mambo stamped off, to make it just a little lighter. The sun image is stamped in Blushing Bride. The card stock used is Whisper White and Melon Mambo.

Crazy Crafters' March Blog Hop- New Saleabration Products

 

 

 

It's a long weekend here in Melbourne. This means an extra day of family time, with maybe a little crafting thrown in.

A few days ago Stampin' Up! released four new free Sale-a-bration products! These will only be available until the end of March and are available for free with each purchase of $90 or more. This months Crazy Crafters theme, centres around these new items.

New products are always exciting. These ones are also such fun to use and so pretty. I will have to get at least one more order in between now and the end of sale-a-bration so I can get my hands on some more of the pretty vellum. Sheer perfection vellum is my new favourite out of all of the saleabration items. I can see so many different uses for it.

Here is my first play with the gorgeous stamp sets and some of the vellum.

 

 

 

 

Thanks for stopping by. I hope you enjoy the rest of the hop.
