MFT# 408

Hello bloggers!

I coloured this little Space Explorer a couple of weeks ago for the MFT colour challenge but didn't have time to make a card. So I'm using him in the current sketch challenge instead:

Happy stamping!

CFC#210 - Pink and Grey

Hello,

CAS-ual Friday's have a colour challenge featuring pinks and greys this week. I hadn't realised it finished in an hour,  so I had to whip this one up really fast:

Luckily I'd coloured the sweet little girl from MFT's Warmest Wishes at the weekend. I set it against a die cut frame from PTI, added a few sparkly snowdrops and snowdrifts and it was done in about 20 minutes! Another Christmas card down...ten to go...

Thanks for stopping by!

FMS #359

Hello bloggers!

Here's a simple Christmas card I made using the sketch from Freshly Made Sketches:

I inked the Poinsettia layers to give some definition and added a couple of leaves from PTI's Doodlie - Do. Yes I know, they're not really like Poinsettia leaves but they fitted the gold embossed circle so much better!

Happy stamping!

CAS-ology - Punctuation

Hello folks,

Not much time to get inky this week as the kidlets have been on school holidays - I did manage one card though for CAS-ology. The cue word is 'punctuation:'

I used CAS-ual Friday's now retired WTF for this one - I created a rainbow pattern using the question mark stamp and then added a couple of sentiments from the same set. Very easy!

Thanks for stopping by,

Two-fer Christmas

Hello,

Just sneaking in with a couple of cards - one for MFT's Colour Challenge, combined with freshly Made Sketches and the other for CAS-ual Friday's Sketch Challenge:

I used Warmest Wishes for the first, together with Wood Plank background. Not the best photo but I might try and get a better one in the daylight tomorrow. For the CAS-ual Friday's card I die cut some Funky Snowflakes  and used a sentiment from Snowy Sayings.

Happy stamping!

Altenew Inspiration Challenge

Hello bloggers. Happy weekend and all that!

My mojo seems to have gone AWOL in the last few days which is always a source of frustration.  I've  tried to get it back by playing along with Altenew but when I mixed the purple and violet alcohol inks, they pooled together and formed blue.  Which means my card doesn't really look like any of the colours in the inspiration pic...

I've used Hennah Elements with a couple of polaroid die cuts and flourishes, one in white and the other in green.

I'm also popping it over to Simon Says Stamp's Wednesday challenge which is Anything Goes!

Happy stamping!

MFT Colour Challenge

Hi again,

Second post of the day for the MFT colour challenge:

I used a few Copics to create the background and added one of the cute little elves from Santa's Elves.

Happy stamping!
