More Polka Dots

Good Afternoon,

Today's card is very similar to yesterdays card (you can see it here), but I never really noticed till I was half way through making it for this weeks One Layer Wednesday Challenge.  Heather Telford is hosting OLW this week and has challenged us to create a card using a piece of clothing for inspiration.  Nothing in my own wardrobe was getting the creative juices going to it was time to head to Pinterest.

Supplies Used:
Uniko Studio - Today, Tomorrow and Always Time
Stampin Up - Bakers Twine

Here is the photo that I found that inspired my card, and I have now fallen in love with this outfit so will probably spend my evening trying to find the jumper and scarf!

I am also going to enter this into the challenges at CAS-ual Fridays and Annabelle Stamps which is Polka Dots for both.

Apologises for the similar cards, I promise my next card will be something different.

Thanks for visiting

Soooo long!

Good Evening,

If you are looking for my card for this weeks CASology challenge, please click here.

You will never guess how long it took me to make a card that I was happy with for a couple of challenges.  Well if you look at the title of this post you will!  It's seems that if I take a short break from crafting it takes me ages to find my mojo again. I think sometimes it is best if you go back to basics till you find your feet again and that is what I did with this card.

Supplies Used:

Pink Petticoat - Lots of Really Big Dots

Stampin Up - Curly Cute

Ribbon from stash

Challenges Entered:

CAS-ual Fridays - Polka Dots

Annabelle Stamps Challenge

Right thats me done for the evening, hopefully that is my mojo restored and I will be back tomorrow with another card.

Thanks for visitin

Fusion #13

Good Afternoon,

What a great day yesterday, the sun was shining and more importantly Andy Murray won Wimbledon! I don't think I have ever been so nervous during a sporting event!  So due to such a great day I never made it to my crafting desk , but today there was no keeping me away.

My share for today is for Fusion Card Challenge, I haven't been able to join in for a while but this challenge is a month long so plenty time to join in.

Supplies Used:
Pink Petticoat - DP and Image
The Alley Way Stamps - Sentiment
ProMarkers
Stickles

I started off using the sketch and the picture as my inspiration for my card, however as it developed it is only the picture that I used really.

Off to enjoy the sun for a bit

CASology 51 - Fireworks

Good Afternoon,

Eeeeeekkk!!!! 

It's my first week joining in with the Design Team at CASology and this week's Cue Word is 'Fireworks'

Supplies Used:
The Stamp Gallery - Fireworks
Stampin Up - Sentiment
Wow Embossing Powder
VersaMark
Dimensional Stickers

Being in the UK, it is a bit early in the year for Fireworks for us, however I figured that fireworks are used for a celebration so that is the route I took.  I kept it as simple as possible and used a glitter embossing to do all the talking!  Since we are only 2 days away from the 4th July Celebrations I expect to see lots of cards with this theme, however I am looking forward to seeing what other ideas you all come up with.

I hope you manage to drop in past the rest of the fab design team to see what they came up with this week!
