Dream Valley Challenges #223 Things With Wings.

Hi, guys! I hope you and your families are keeping safe and well. To while away the time at home, we have a new Challenge at Dream Valley. We'd like to see Things With Wings. Bees, Butterflies, Fairies, Angels, Birds, Aeroplanes, Pterodactyls.....

Our sponsor is Morgan's Art World and there are 3 of her beautiful digis on offer for the lucky winner!

Sadly I had to make this card early, so was unable to use one of her digis, but they are so gorgeous!


I used a silhouette digi from Scrapper's Delights, which sadly has ceased trading. I coloured the fairy's wings with metallic gel pens in two shades of pink.

The background paper is from an old First Editions pad, and I die cut the black glitter cardstock with an old die from My Favorite Things.

The card is winging its way to Shropshire, to my daughter-in-law. I have been sending out some cards to friends and family recently, it seems to cheer them up!

Don't forget to fly across to the Challenge Blog to see the lovely images you might win, and join in the Challenge.

You gotta be in it to win it!

Now I'm returning to my new computer game and the City of Midgar. I have to save the planet from the machinations of the evil Shinra Corporation!

Thanks for looking, and take care!

love, Mags B x

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

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
