Allsorts Challenge ~ Designer Paper

Sarah has chosen the theme of 'Designer Papers' for this week's Allsorts Challenge. 

I decided to make a masculine Joy Fold card, using designer papers from The Works. The sentiment is a stamp from Stampin' Up 'Best Year' stamped with SU 'Night of Navy.  The card is kept closed with a white star brad.

Prizes are stamps from AALL and Create.

Witches' Brew

A fairly CAS card using some of my recent Lavinia stamps. 

The card shape was cut with a Studio Light triptych die.  I cut three panels using pale lilac card and blended Adirondack 'Purple Twilight around the edges.  I used Lavinia 'Bubbling Cauldron', 'Magical Mist', 'Hattie' and 'Faba' stamps and added some sparkle with Gelly Roll Stardust pens.  The witch's hair was coloured with a white pastel pencil and I coloured the lamp with yellow PanPastel.

Allsorts Challenge ~ Magical, Myths and Legends

There is a new theme of  'Magical, Myths and Legends', chosen by Ellie, for the Allsorts Challenge this week.  As always there is also the Anything Goes option.

I made the background with Adirondack 'Denim' ink and a Lavina Flower Petals stencil, masking off the moon with a circle of card.  I used used Lavinia stamps Arial (Small), Bats, Leaf Creeper, Oak Leaf Branch, Wallace Family, Dandelions, stamped with Versafine Clair 'Nocture', to create my magical scene.  I added some sparkle to the fairy's wings with a Wink of Stella clear glitter brush and some holographic glitter coming from the fairy's wand.

There are beautiful prizes of Lavinia stamps to be won.

80th Birthday

A masculine card today for a friend who celebrated his 80th Birthday recently.  I love this image and sentiment and I used it on another card last month HERE.

The card fold was made with Made To Surprise 'Side Panel Showstopper' dies.  The digi stamp and sentiment are from Beccy's Place 'You're A Hoot' set.  I coloured the image with Promarkers.  There is a pre-coloured version, but I didn't have any patterned paper to match the shade of brown.  The patterned paper is from Anna Marie Designs.  I finished of my card with numbers, using dies from The Works.

The card folds flat for posting.
