Hello Waltzingmouse fans!
It's Pyjama Party time once again and I've been busy crafting away on three little cards ready for the party. There's a bit of a masculine theme for this one, which is a good thing, as my cards have definitely been missing a masculine touch in the last few weeks.
First up is my 'man of the moment' card for challenge one. There's quite a few very special men in my life...Hugh Jackman, George Clooney, Jon Hamm...the list goes on. But actually I've made a card for one of the most special of all which is my youngest son. He saw me making this and insisted I give it to him for his birthday in October:
I used Half Pint Heroes, together with a small circle sunburst die from Memory Box - the colours are from the latest palette over at Colour Q. The spaceship has been coloured with Copics and I added some Kindyglitz to the sun and fire for a bit of sparkle.
The next card is for challenge 3 - 'old pyjamas'. For this very CAS one I used the huge strawberry from 'Big Berries.' I stamped it in Real Red, then added some Glossy Accents to all the dots to make it extra juicy. The background has been stamped using the Woodgrain background stamp and I embossed a little frame for the big berry with the Picot Panel die:
Lastly is the Bedtime Story sketch challenge:
Since I already had the woodgrain stamp out, I used it to stamp a background onto three Nestability die cuts, then stamped 3 identical Funky Feathers and coloured them with distress inks. I added a little heart from the same set and covered it with Glossy Accents.
One day I'll manage to enter all four challenges but I think I've done pretty well doing three! Now I'm off to make a very big cup of coffee and have a nosy at what everyone else has done!
Thanks for stopping,
Claire
Wonderful projects. I love those peacock feathers with the shiny hearts and wonderful colored inky backgrounds!
ReplyDeleteYour son has good taste because that card is pretty awesome!
ReplyDeleteWow you have some very gorgeous cards here Claire! So smart to make one with the colors for CQC and its just darling! Love your take on the BTS sketch what a beautiful card.
ReplyDeleteSpectacular cards Claire. Just love the glossy little hearts in the last one. I'm curious, how did you do that to the stamped image or is it a die cut?
ReplyDeleteA wonderful set of cards to bring to the WMS PJ party Claire! Love the bright boldness of your rocket card - I can see why your son claimed it as his own! Your strawberry card is CAS and luscious! and your feathers look so pretty with their bright red hearts! Thanks for joining us at the party! Julia xx

ReplyDeleteWhat fabulousness, Claire :) Love the half pint heroes and you have made a fab card with the rocket and sunburst. The juicy strawberry and cool feathers are gorgeous too!
ReplyDeleteClaire, these are amazing! So many wonderful touches on each card. Especially love those 3 tags with the feathers. Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteClaire, all of these cards have so much WOW factor! The sun die is perfect with that rocket, and your background contracted so well with the sun. I adored your feathered labels, too.
ReplyDeleteThat rocket ship is fantastic, Claire ... bold and glittery and so much fun! Delicious juicy strawberry ... and fabulous feathers with those shiny heart centres! Anita :)
