Clean and simple Freshly Made Sketches weekly challenge

Hi

This is my entry to the Freshly Made Sketches challenge, this week.

The background is a piece of leftover wallpaper which goes perfectly with the cream card and die cut embellishments.

I finished by adding glossy accents to the sentiment (tattered lace), and Tonic nuovo sparkle to the centre of my flower.

Thank you for visiting

Cute Crazy Dog birthday card

Hi

Today's card is another featuring these cute dogs designed by Tim Holtz.  The stamps are from
Stampers Anonymous and the Dies are from Sizzix.

I have seen many cards with these Crazy Dogs (indeed I have made one or two) where a dog appears through an aperture, so I wanted to try making an aperture with Tim's Sizzix Multi Media dies, through which a dog would peep, and this is the result.  I did have to snip a little so the dog would look through.

I am pleased with it, hope you like it, thank you for visiting.

Clean and simple card for many occassions

Hi

Today I have a clean and simple card which I have entered into the Freshly Made Sketches weekly challenge.

The stamp is made by Chocolate Baroque and after stamping in grey, I coloured it with Promarkers (my markers of choice).

I stamped it twice and fussy cut a flower bud from one image, glued it onto a small circle before adding glossy accents to the flower bud and adding it to the card.

A simple sentiment in grey completed the card together with a few clear sequins.

Thank you for visiting

Bright and cheerful birthday card

Hello
Today's card is a bright happy birthday card which I am entering in the weekly Freshly Made Sketches challenge at  freshlymadesketches.blogspot.co.uk

I know it is not yet summer, but the occasional sunny days we have had recently gave me the inspiration for this card

Hope you like it

All for now

Bright card combining the Crazy Dog and Mixed Media dies

Hi

I kept this card quite simple, just using two dies from Sizzix designed by Tim Holtz: the splat from Tim's Mixed Media dies and a Crazy dog which I coloured with Promarkers  then accented with Glossy Accents.

I cut the sentiment out twice, once in black then in a multi coloured card (which I created with Promarkers) then glued them on top of each other, then to the card, before coating with Glossy Accents.

I drew the border freehand then coloured in matching colours.

All for now

Clean and Simple Thank you card

Hi

Just a quick visit today to show you a card which I entered into the weekly challenge on the Freshly made Sketches blog.

It is worth visiting the blog as there is a varied selection of entries and I am sure everyone will find inspiration from at least one entry.

Hope you like it, all for now

Crazy Dogs by Tim Holtz- Mirror image

Hi

As you may have seen, I have found a way to produce a mirror image of these stamps quite easily.

So it seemed appropriate to make a card using a dog looking at himself/herself in a mirror

The method I used to give the mirror image is in my post dated 26 January.

Hope you like it
