C.R.A.F.T Challenge #305 Inspiration Picture

Hi, guys! This week's CRAFT Challenge is this pretty, Springtime Inspiration Picture.


Use it as the starting point for your creation: the colours, the flower, springtime - just please tell us in your post!

I used a lovely image from Pattie's Creations called Daffodils Circle Scroll. Daffs are one of my favourite flowers, they add such gorgeous colour to days that are still so often cold and grey!


The mat is cut with a Spellbinders die and the corners with a Whimsy die. Ribbon and paper are from stash. I added the sentiment in gold embossing powder.

Our sponsors are:

Pattie's Creations Digital Images


and Sweet Pea Stamps


For some wonderful inspiration go and see what the DT has made using the picture as inspiration!

Thanks for looking!

Hi, just saw a link over at Kitty's blog welcoming you as a new follower, so it was easy to click and zip over to say Hello, Happy Easter, and enjoy your lovely spring card. Love that airy floral and the way it fits on your circle diecut. Very effective design, with the delicate open die behind it, and on the fresh green background. Loved the added corner touches too. Hope all is well. Hugs & TFS

Hi, guys! We have a new challenge at Dream Valley and it's to use yellow and black on your project. Our sponsor is the gorgeous All Dressed Up and Wendy kindly gave us a couple of her adorable images to use. I chose Magical Woodland it is so cute. The background is made with the Honeybee layering die set from Birch Press, and I used up scraps of orange, black and yellow card forthe die-cutting. The die-cut sentiment uses a Love from Lizi die and a snippet of black glitter cardstock. Have a look of my teamies' creations, they have made some very pretty cards! Thanks for looking and - Bee Happy! love Mags B x

My Time to Craft! #390 Men Only

Image
Hi, guys! I hope you're all keeping well! We have a new Challenge at My Time to Craft! which is Men Only. Yep, we're asking for those tricky cards for the Blokes! I have made a card for a boy. This is Fenton Frog by Sweet'n'Sassy stamps, he is so cute! ALL the papers and card (except the card base were made with Snippets from the scrap drawer! The sentiment came with the image and I cut it out and layered it onto a folded banner die-cut by Simon Says Stamp, using a scrap of green glittery card. I added green Nuvo Drops as an embellishment as well as two tiny green hearts on the banner. I am determined to make a real effort to use up snippets this year!! Go and see the fab work left on the Challenge blog by my teamies! Thanks for looking and have a great weekend! love Mags B x

My Time to Craft #386 More Than One Fold - but not an easel!!

Image
Hello, my lovelies! I hope you're all keeping well and keeping on top of all the Chrimbo shenanigans! To take your mind off things we have a new Challenge at My Time to Craft! which is More Than One Fold But No Easels! I don't know about you, but an easel card is my default for more than one fold, so I was a bit anxious about this one. However, in the nick of time Jennifer McGuire posted a video on how to make a Double Z-fold card which fits the bill! This is the outside, which looks like an ordinary Z-fold, but when you open it..... I used a printed ready-made card base and stamped and embossed an old Hero Arts stamp across the internal section, masking areas for the sentiments. I coloured the flowers with Zig brush markers. The sentiments are stamped with gold Delicata ink. This was made for a birthday at the end of October, I am pleased to say that the recipient liked it! There is some gorgeous inspiration on the Challenge blog, go and see! Thanks for look
