New Challenge at One Layer Christmas Cards!

Hi friends!

We have a new fun challenge for you at One Layer Christmas Cards, here. The DT has created great cards for your inspiration... Do check them out! Our challenges are always "Anything One Layer Christmas Goes" but if you want to have a chance to win in our monthly prize draw be sure to use the optional twist "Green"!

My one layer card is created with a tree stamp and sentiment stamp by STAMPlorations and with a snowflake stamp, I can't remember the maker of that one now. I sponged the bg with lighter green ink, stamped the trees with darker green ink and used silver-colored metallic ink for stamping snowflakes to the bg. I added rhinestones to the centers of the snowflakes. Hope you like!

New Challenge at TIME OUT!

Hi guys!

I'd like to see you joining us in our new challenge at TIME OUT Challenges. This time we are inspired by words:

Happy is the Bride that the Sun Shines on

You can be inspired by the whole sentiment or just choose one word or some words as your starting point: for example Bride or Sun.

Our guest designer this time is Sue. If you are not familiar with her blog Sues's Card Craft  you are in for a CAS treat! Do pop by her blog and leave her some love. :) The regular DT members have done fab job with their inspiration cards as well -do check them out! 

I was inspired by sunshine (I used colored vellum that reminded me of sunshine/sunset) and also made a wedding card -inspired by the whole sentiment. The stamps I used for heat embossing with white powder come from STAMPlorations and are called Ever After and Fond Expressions. Hope you like! The layout and idea for vellum come from my good friend Milla -I received a wonderful card from her a couple of days ago. 

See you at  TIME OUT Challenges!

New Challenge at Inkspirational!

Hi friends!

We have a new fun challenge for you at Inkspirational! It's a photo inspiration and a very pretty one too. :) I chose to be inspired of purple, flowers and the writing she is reading! Our guest designer this time is Kylie: a challenge blog owner + crafting community runner, amazing card maker and a great girl! Don't miss her card! 

I've borrowed the stamps I used in this card from my lovely crafting friend Milla. Milla is a great crafter and a good friend. If you don't know her blog Mustesormi, you are in for a treat! She hasn't been posting any new cards the last couple of months (she has made cards though...) so why don't you go and leave her some blogland-love and maybe we get to enjoy of her posts again! ;) 

I've colored the flower with Copics and stamped the bg with Distress Ink. The sentiment is Finnish for "Happiness and Joy". I was having a feminine feeling... So a doily felt like appropriate addition. :)

Just a quick post to remind you of our current challenge at TIME OUT where we are CASEing Deepti from Dee's Art Utopia. Please click here for all the details -there's a prize to be won too! :)

Here's Deepti's card:

I chose to be inspired of the floral theme, Deepti's use of black color + the layout of the card. My own twist is that this is a one layer! :) Hope you like!
