Stempelglede Guest DT

Hi,

It's been a while since I've blogged anything, as I've been helping my daughter in her Accounting business as Tax season here in Australia is July- Sept and she gets really busy!

Now I'm back to crafting again yay!

There is a fantastic chance to be a Guest DT on Stempelglede and I would like to enter with my version of a Steampunk card..

I have used a Dutch Doobadoo Shape Art Book template for the card shape.

Kraft card stock, white Kaisercraft card, Distress Inks and Kaisercraft Barber Shoppe design paper.

I hand drew the image of the inkwell from an old fashioned one I bought a long time ago it's coloured with distress inks.

I've a wax seal on the design because I wanted an old fashioned look to the paper!

I hope you like my little effort and hope to see you more often,

 Until next time happy crafting, stay safe..

Add some Blue - challenge at LHOSM

Hi there,

Here is my card for the Add some Blue challenge over at 

Lovely Hanglar or Sweet Magnolia

our sponsors are the wonderful Magnolia-licious and Ribbon Girl

how lucky are we!

This is Watering Tilda coloured with Distressed Inks.

I thought it would be a great image for my daughters birthday in May as she waters her plants before doing the school run with her 2 daughters.

 Spellbinders die for the image, Go-Kreate for the card shape, stamped the tulips(can't remember who's stamp) then hand drew the fence,

the gorgeous Maja Coffee in the Arbour- White Daisies DP

Magnolia Doohickey tag & Butterfly dies, flowers Kaisercraft, lace & seem binding from my craft box & lots of Stardust Stickles.

My daughter loved the card!

Until next time,

happy crafting..

"Anything Goes" Theme over at LHOSM

Hi there,

I've been MIA for a short while, hubby health problems, but I'm back now!

I would like to share my latest card with you for the June challenge over at  

Lovely Hanglar or Sweet Magnolia

our sponsors are Ribbon Girl

my favourite at the moment Frenchy Tilda...

I coloured her with Distress Inks, and sat her on some french bread sticks which I drew free hand, added a basket stamp for the bread to sit on, I loved playing with this Tilda then came the sticky question what colour to use for a background!!!

The idea of coffee came from the lovely PION 'A day in May' DP, Kraft cardstock,

Magnolia Teacup stamp which I've cut out and the tag is from Maja Coffee in the Arbor, Flowers Kaisercraft, butterflies, lace, ribbon from my craft box.

Go Create & Spellbinders dies.

 

I hope you like my take on Frenchy Tilda I think she is just fabulous!

Until next time,

take care..

Summer Card

Hi everyone,

The theme is Summer for Lovely Hanglar or Sweet Magnolia blog May challenge.

I have chosen the lovely new Speedy Tilda stamp from the Magnolia Little Italian collection.

I absolutely love this stamp, I've coloured her with Distress Inks and used magnolia Barbed wire background stamp, giving the impression Tilda is riding in the country with her hair blowing free! 

I've stepped out of my normal colour zone with this one and I am so glad that I did as I love the way the colours have all come together to give a bright, zingy card.
