ATS Wed Challenge - Anything Goes - woohoo

Another Wed Challenge is upon us at ATS and this week it's 'anything goes'. So I decided to make a 'trio' of cards using the gorgeous Laugh Lines that I have. They are so happy, how can they not bring joy??? I also used my 'mixed messages' sentiments, my cuttlebug, and just had to add a little butterfly for Laugh Line Bee to blow her raspberry at!  So here is my trio...

Having fun with the Wed Challenge.

Happy Craftin' all.

ATS - Wednesday Challenge - Inspiration

Well, over at ATS they have had another inspiration challenge. and this is what I've come up with. This is my first attempt at an easel card, and I think I probably should have gone with a more conventional shape, as I had a bit of trouble. Still, not bad in the end I reckon.

Thnakfully my latest parcel from ATS arrived in the nick of time and I was able to use my new Coffee Brigitta and new mixed messages sentiments. What a cutie she is.

I'm happy in the end, but need a bit more practice with easels!!

Happy Craftin' all

ATS -Wed Challenge - COLOUR

This week the ATS Wed Challenge was a colour one - earthy tones of browns, blue and moss green. ONe of my fav colour combos, and I knew exactly what I wanted to do.

So, I used paper I've had in my stash for ages, kraft card stock, and the CC Desings Laugh Lines Butterfly - so darn cute! I made a side step card and fussy-cut the flowers to create a garden.

Thanks ATS for the great challenge.

Happy Craftin' all

ATS Wed Challenge - Sketch

Well, here we are again for another Wednesday Challenge over at ATS. And this week it is a sketch challenge.

I've started working as a swimming instructor and the bosses b'day is coming up, so I thought I'd use my newly arrived Laugh Lines Marina stamp and make a birthday card. I think she looks smashing.

I coloured the tail using a technique I learned on Amy Y's blog, and while it may not have turned out quite as nice as hers, I think it is still pretty effective.

and this is the inside.

and this is the sketch

So that is all for today. I hope to have more time soon to knuckle down and get on here more.

Happy Craftin'

ATS Wednesday Challenge - Make your own buttons!

Well, I'm not sure I'm going to make this on time, I always get confused with the time difference, but here is my card for the Wed Challenge at ATS this week.

I made this for a little girl's 6th b'day. I think she'll like it.

I used a flower punch for the buttons and cupcake Belle rubber stamp.

Happy Craftin'

ATS Wednseday Challenge - Anything Goes

Over at ATS this week's challenge is an anything goes challenge. I chose to use Sugar Plums Geisha Girl digi stamp and instead of a card I created an OTP. I used a Kaisercraft frame and 'wrapped' it in Japanese papers, stamped a background, and stuck the cutie Geisha on some mounting tape. The flowers in the corner are from the talented Sandie (another Sandie, not me :o) ).

I have to say I'm enjoying the Wednesday Challenge. I'm creating something every week, which is a bit unusual for me.

TFL and Happy Crafting!

ATS Wednesday Challenge

This week at All That Scraps the Wednesday Challenge is an inspiration one. Such a lovely photo for us to work with. I was inspired by the country feel, the muted colour palette, and the sunflowers. And that it looked like a great relaxing spot for a cuppa.

And this is what I came up with....

This Kiki La Rue stamp from CC Desings at All That Scraps is such a cheeky little cutie!!

Happy scrapping all!
