Happy Birthday

I'm quick on the ball with a couple of my monthly challenges.  This is the second one for February that I have completed.

The Outlawz Wednesday Challenge - Sketch
http://outlawzchallenges.ning.com/group/wednesday-sketch/forum/topics/wednesday-sketch-challenge-january-22-february-4-2020

I have used a digital paper, image and sentiment from Beccy's Place.  Colouring is with copic markers.

I followed the sketch at The Outlawz Wednesday Challenge.

My Best Friend

As soon as I saw the image for the Progressive Challenge, I knew straight away what I wanted to do.  It was a perfect for the sketch at Try Stamping on Tuesday.  I had it made fairly quickly but then had to wait for the shops to open so I could get some more mount tape as mine had run out.

Try Stamping On Tuesday - Sketch
http://trystampinontuesday.blogspot.com/2020/01/challenge-441-ends-feb-2nd.html

I have used a digital paper from Sweetly Scrapped.  The image is from All Dressed Up and is called Best Friends.  I also added some corrugated paper strips (which are more cardstock weight than paper) as well as some red braid type ribbon.  I mounted the image up at the corners so that it sat straight.

I followed the sketch at Try Stamping on Tuesday.

Merry Christmas

This week at CHNC, our optional twist is "Quick and Easy". 

I have used a digital paper from Bugaboo Stamps.  The image and sentiment are also from Bugaboo Stamps.  I inked the edges of the image and sentiment with Distress Ink - Black Soot. 

I followed the sketch at Stella Says Sketch but rotated it to fit the image.

Many Thanks

I am still on a quest to reduce my "Awaiting Crafting" boxes.  This time I used three papers from the digital papers box and a sentiment from the sentiment box.

CHNC Patterned Paper - January Challenge
http://craftyhazelnutspatternedpaper.blogspot.com/2020/01/craftyhazelnuts-patterned-paper-january.html

I have used 3 digital papers.  I am not sure of the source of the blue one or the stripe one but the one with words on it is from Bearly Mine Designs.  The image is from Sheepski Designs but I'm not sure of the source of the sentiment.

I followed the sketch at Creative Sketchy Girls - although I just noticed that I put the blue piece in the wrong place.  You can tell I was a little on the tired side when I put the pieces together.

First Day Of School.

Some of our schools started back this week with the rest going back next week.  Inspired by that I created a back to school card.  I also managed to use a digital paper, image and sentiment from my "Awaiting Crafting" boxes.  I still have a lot to work through but each little bit helps.

CHNC Patterned Paper - January Challenge
http://craftyhazelnutspatternedpaper.blogspot.com/2020/01/craftyhazelnuts-patterned-paper-january.html

I have used a digital paper from Bearly Mine Designs.  The image is from QKR Stampede and the sentiment is from Sugar Paw Scraps.  Colouring is with copic markers.  The edges of the image and sentiment have been inked with Distress Ink.  I added some letter and number stickers that were left over from a pack (ie the ones that hadn't been used for other projects).  I added two metallic stars next to the sentiment.

Thank You So Much

I am still working through my rather large pile of digital paper, digital images and digital sentiments that I printed out some time ago.  This card has used a digital paper and a digital sentiment so I'm still slowly making progess.

I have used a digital paper from Create with TLC.  The image is from Bugaboo Stamps and the sentiment is from Desert Diva.  Colouring is with copic markers.

Fuchsia Joy

I grew up in a back section.  Along the drive to get back to the house, we had a lot of different colours of fuchsia.  I never counted them but there must have been at least 10.

CHNC Patterned Paper - January Challenge
http://craftyhazelnutspatternedpaper.blogspot.com/2020/01/craftyhazelnuts-patterned-paper-january.html


I have used three different papers from a Kiwiana themed paper pad.  I coloured the fuchsia to match the colours in the striped paper.  Colouring is wtih copic markers.  I also used some yellow organza ribbon.

I followed a tutorial for a Joy Fold Card from Beccy's Place.
