scrapbook layout - eeekkkk


So this evening I am sharing with you a scrapbook page that I have made for my brother and sister in law who recently celebrated 10 years of marriage... I wanted to make them something a little bit different and here is what I did...


a close up of the photo - brilliant


a close up of the DSP


hodgepodge and the ribbon


I scrapped them a picture from their wedding which I have to say is one of the best confetti shots that I have ever seen - and this one my dad took!
For this layout I have used an SEI DSP and have then themed this with punched hearts using the  stampin' up punch and I have used I heart heart to stamp first...
I have used 10 of each design for the 10 years and then I added 10 pearls...
I have also inked the edge of the base...
I am entering this layout in the following challenges:
critter sketch - anything goes
heart 2 heart - scraps
hooked on craft - anything but a card
incy wincy - anything but a card

The Crafty Pad DT... Things with wings...


Good Morning!
Today I am sharing with you my challenge over at the crafty pad. 
It was my turn to decide the theme and I decided on 
'things with wings'
From our sponsor this week there is a £10.00 online gift voucher








I have to say I am very pleased with my project for a couple of reasons... I have managed to print a digi image so that I can add them to a candle (hubby was more concerned about his printer!) and I also for the first time water coloured them without too much bleeding which I am so pleased at I was imagining much more...

So on to my project I have created a candle and a matching card that I am really pleased with... 
Running the tissue paper through the printer to get the image off to adhere to the candle. I also printed one on card for creating the images for the matching card...


I have coloured the images with my ink pads and an aqua brush and then stipple the background for the card using a shaving brush I have kept the card very simple and I am very pleased with it. For the candle I again water coloured the images and then sealed them with my heat gun...

I am entering these projects in the following challenges:
basic grey - things with wings
kraftin kimmie - summer colours
(wasn't sure if I needed to use one of there images)
penny black - summer
secret crafter - bright and cheerful
dcc and friends - anything goes

I hope that you like what I have created today and I love what the other teamies have done for this challenge also...

LEJ Designs - DT


Hello blogland and welcome to all my new followers!

This morning I am sharing with you a card that I have made for the challenge over at LEJ Designs... This weeks challenge is BLING - something that I love to do when making cards and projects! I hope that you will join us - there are some great prizes on offer this week...

3 digi images from LEJ Designs


and 

this set of pens from Letraset

so lets see what you can create this week!

For my card I have used Cinders - perfect for this challenge she is so easy to add BLING too...
I have coloured my image with my pro-markers and added detail to the edge of the dress... 

Here is a close up of the image... I have inked the edge of the image using the pro-marker I have coloured the dress with... and for her shoes I have used the metallic silver pen! 

I have added a piece of co-ordinating card stock and a piece of SEI DSP (which I have finally cut into after at least 3 years!)


I have added the sentiment to the bottom right hand side and gems all around the card and the layout...  


I hope you like my card and thanks for looking - I hope you will also join in the great challenge that we have for you this week...
As always your comments are appreciated...
happy crafting

LEJ Designs...

Today I am sharing with you the DT that I created for LEJ Design this week using one of the great digi images that is available...
The theme this week is anything goes - always an easy one to get involved in and also one that lets your creativity just take over... I love doing them!



Two great prizes on offer this week
3 digi images from LEJ Designs


and

also this great prize from
http://www.mishelflocreativecrafting.co.uk/



So here is the tag that I have created for the challenge I have tried to be out of my comfort zone with this and I have even got the layers hanging over the edge of the tag (something I find very hard!)


I used bold colours to colour the image and have done something a little different for the printing of the image - I have used cream card instead of brilliant white as I think that this adds a subtle softness to the creation... The accessories that I have used co-ordinate with this...
I have used 3 fabric coloured brads for the bottom right and 4 flowers to the top left. I have used a journalling tag the base layer and another added at a jaunty angel...
I hope you like my tag and thanks for looking... Welcome to all my new followers also!
thank you for all your comments they are much appreciated
happy crafting
