Wildflower Doodles- LPoCF #60

Hello again,

Today brings us to another brand new challenge over at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends and as always the challenge is Anything goes, so come along and join in with whatever you have been working on, we have one lovely sponsors this fortnight Miss Daisy stamps offering a prize to one lucky winner.

Miss Daisy Stamps

Prize 4 images of choice one from each of the following artists

Jennifer Nilsson Art * Mari Digis * Miss Daisy’s Collection * We Are 3

I am using an image from Miss Daisy Stamps called Wildflower Doodles 1, I had an idea in mind for this card and I have managed to pull it off. I have used an inky background created with Dylusions Spray inks Cherry Pie and Lemon Zest, I have also sprayed some Lindys Stamp Gang Pearlescent white ink over the top of the others once they had dried.

I printed the image onto plain paper and then taped down my papers I wanted to use for the various layers reprinting onto the coloured and patterned papers, in the mood for some fussy cutting I used fine tipped scissors to carefully cut the image out from the various papers and glued them straight onto the image printed on to the spray ink background, I was very careful not to drop, sneeze or breathe the tiny pieces :-)

Not satisfied with the finished product, I used an embossing pen to add some shine to the flower centres and the butterfly, heat embossing in some clear powder, stamping and adding more clear powder to the sentiment.

Don’t forget to stop by my team mates blogs to check out some more inspirational projects and leave them some love!

Stella Fireman Call #2

Hello again,

Today we awoke to sad news again, thinking of all those who lost their lives and loved ones in London overnight.

A couple of weeks ago I made this card for my DT post for Lil Patch of Crafty Friends, well as my Mum requested two more cards for her kindy friends (they started school together some 50 years ago!) There are even plans afoot to attend a School gathering sometime during the year.

I have used two nesting die sets to cut and frame Stella, however they were a little to wide for my liking and I was able to pattern match and create a narrower frame by sliding one side across by one scallop and lopping the side off, only having a small clipping from one of the other scallops which I can no-longer see.

Here is the second card:-

What I used:-

White C7 card blank 12.7x17.8

Bugaboo Stamps- Stella Fireman Call digi and sentiment

White card for printing

AC cardstock Amethyst and cascade

Patterned papers from ‘Jewel’ Sugar and Spice Studios (Spotlight for those in Aus)

Tiny bling from my stash

Purple brads from stash

Couture Creations nesting rectangle and scalloped rectangle dies

MFT Stamps Essential Sentiments

W Plus 9 Scalloped border die

Black embossing powder

Clear Embossing inkpad

Anti-Static bag

Diamond glaze added to flames and Stella’s glasses

Adhesives:- Double-sided tape and foam tape
