White on White

Heavens to Betsy it's been a while since I last blogged, so hope I find you all keeping well now the days have got colder.

This is a tag made for Ali craft and Try it on Tuesday , with corrugated card partially stripped back, de-bossed  and embossed with paste and die cuts added .

 

Black White Silver and ????

Well it's time to throw another colour into the mix over at Just for Fun but you get to choose :)
I chooses to use Lavender hope you can see it ok.

No distress inks this time but a lavender pigment ink to colour the flowers, some of the background and the ribbon

Have fun everyone and can't wait to see what you throw into the mix :)

A play day and new Challenge Blog

After yesterday disastrous attempt, to attend  the mini extravaganza at the Craft Barn ( seven hours stuck on the M25 ) I 've had a play. I wanted to see is you could make an aperture in corrugated card and it worked out really well, I cut the surface with a knife and just peeled back the top layer of paper revealing the corrugations underneath, there was no plan it just sort of evolved lol
I'm entering this 4x4 to a new challenge blog for all those of you who love stamping called Fashionable Stamping and their first challenge is anything goes, please check it out there are some wonderful talented creation on show

White on white week 27 at Just for fun

Ever wake up in a panic knowing you have forgotten something well that was me today lol, it's dark and has been raining since the early hours, well at least we had 3 days of a nice hot summer :)
Right back to this months Challenge at Just for Fun set by Sam Add a Colour and for me the hardest month yet I'm so glad I have longer to create something than all you amazing follower who come up with something wonderful by the end of each week :)

For this white on white I have embossed white card stock and cut into squares a little white dreamweaver in the corner not sure why I did that lol the central square are thin strips of corrugated card painted white the bird cut with my Silhouette and painted with Viva mother of pearl topped off with punched and embossed leaves and a hand made paper rose

Have lots of fun and look forward to visiting you :)

I'm also entering this in the Crafts and me which is anything goes

Lazy summers day Week 24 at Just for Fun

Here we are at the second week of Zoe's choice of materials at Just for fun and one you will all be familiar with, it's corrugated card found in strong cardboard box's by tearing off the top layer you know the sort you can get from the super market or you can use the thinner craft corrugated card that comes in different colours . I choose to use both on my project.

After removing the top layer which came off very cleanly wish it hadn't lol I paint with household paint, the nice thing about the craft on is you can punch shapes out of it, I then highlighted the raised bits with a silver dabber, the face I made in a mould with air dry clay and painted with distress rock candy.

I thought I was only joking when I said I be getting wet last Thursday as it was a day of heavy showers and we were at Alnwick Garden admiring the water features lol by the way they have the most amazing loos

Hope you will have lots of fun with this weeks challenge and look forward to seeing you take on the theme .

I'm also entering this to Sir Stampalots anything goes

Again Linda has set to get you thinking and it's all todo with dimention with a link to Tims challenge of May 2008 Well I'm not really a scrapper but thought I'd make a little something for the other half using some of his TT badges, it's all made with a corrigated card, distress stains and acrylic dabbers .
