Saying Hello

I'm away from home and realised that I needed to get this posted today so took the photo on my mobile phone.  Not that happy with the photo but it's the best I can do with the phone.

I would like to enter my card into these challenges:

I have used a paper from a paper pad by MME.  The image is from Anne's Digital Art.  I added a digital sentiment and some die-cut buttons.

Daffodils

A pretty girlie card this time - and in my favourite colour too.   We have had a couple of days of nice weather so I think that was my inspiration here.

I have used a paper from a paper pad by Kaisercraft.  the yellow squares are cut from an offcut piece of cardstock (not sure of the source of that one).  The image is from Sheepski Designs and is coloured with copic markers.  I added some Glossy Accents to the water in the jar.  I also used some butterfly embellishments and a pre-made bow.  Matting is yellow cardstock.

Easter

It's not long till Easter now.  I think with it being earlier this year it feels as though it has crept up on me just a little fast.  I'm only just starting to create Easter cards now!

Crafty Gals Corner - Make It Green
http://craftygalscornerchallenges.blogspot.co.nz/2018/03/challenge-161-make-it-green.html


I have used a paper from a paper pad by Kaisercraft.  The foliage on the paper is green but it has photographed more grey (possibly because of the brighter colours in the image!).  The image is from The Paper Shelter and is coloured with copic markers.  Matting is green pearlescent cardstock. The digital sentiment is from Create with TLC.  I also added a wooden flower embellishment and some pearls from Rosie's Studio.

Hi

Several months ago, I bought a die to enable me to create shaped cards when I got bored with square and rectangular ones but haven't had the time to use it until now.

CRAFT Challenge - Spring
http://trimmiescraftchallenge.blogspot.co.nz/2018/03/challenge-460-22nd-of-march-springeaster.html

I die-cut the card stock to create a shaped base card.  The image is from Crafty Sentiments and is coloured with copic markers.  I edged the image with two colours of Distress Ink.  I added an offcut piece of patterned paper and matted it with some pearlescent cardstock.  I also added a button sentiment, some pink pearls and a rose sticker embellishment.

Think Happy and Be Happy

I didn't start off by creating a CAS card - it just evolved that way.  Everything that I added just looked too much.  I must have been in a CAS mood when I created this I think.

I have used a paper and a tag with sentiment from a paper pad by Kaisercraft.  I added a doily embellishment.  The image is from Sheepski Designs and coloured with copic markers.  I sat the butterfly over the doily.

For Fox Sake

I'm running late again this week.  I thought I had actually done the post for the start of this challenge but was mistaken.  Anyhow,  it is the start of the No More Than 3 Colours Challenge at Incy Wincy Designs.  The sponsors for the challenge are Bugaboo Stamps and Sheepski Designs.




For my card, I used an image and sentiment set from Bugaboo Stamps called For Fox Sake.


I have also used a paper from a paper pad by Kaisercraft.  Colouring of the image is with copic markers.  I added ome mesh ribbon and some pearls.
