AAA Card Challenge #290: Anything CAS Birthday goes

 Hello we turned 11!, well our challenge blog and challenges I mean.

Last year we celebrated big, but 11 doesn't feel as special, it is, just no prizes sorry, we hope you'll still join in.

The challenge is CAS birthday, so we look forward to your entries.

For my card I inkblended a cardpanel in rainbow colors with Distress inks and then splattered with water, silver and black shimmery watercolors, let it dry.

I diecut the Birthday Wishes from Whimsy Stamps from both the rainbow panel and a  black one for the outline.

I forgot to put double sided adhesive behind the rainbow, but luckily I remembered with the black as those lines are too thin for liquid glue for me.

Put it all together and partially stamped the Happy Birthday, also Whimsy Stamps with Versafine black ink.

AAA Birthday Card Challenges #73: 6th birthday

 

Hello this month, we're celebrating our birthday, our 6th! can you believe it? I cannot but time flies for sure.

For my card I used the Crocos from Katzelkraft and I stamped him with My Favorite Things Extreme black ink and colored him with Spectrum Noir markers.

Nuvo shimmer pen on the balloon.

The sentiment is from Whimsy Stamps and it's from the Simple Sentiment Strips, stamped with Versafine ink.

I matted the panel and adhered it to a cardbase.

I look forward to your makes, you can enter them here.

April Showers

 

Hello, today I'm using a digi from Whimsy Stamps and Crissy Armstrong: I will carry you.

I saw a mouse with umbrella and a turtle with  wellies and a rainbucket hat, so I thought April Showers, bring May flowers would be nice, but as April is almost over I went with a punny sentiment: Thank you for being so Mice as the mouse is holding an umbrella sheltering the turtle from the rain...

I printed the digi, colored it with alcohol markers and then cut it out and mounted it with foam tape. I went for  nice and bright colors as rainy days can be a bit blah.

For the background I masked off a strip and splattered metallic blue and blueish green watercolor paint as if it's raining.

I printed the sentiment on the cardbase, I custom made it as I don't have anything like this from Whimsy.

Adhered the image onto the cardbase.

You can find the digi in the shop:

AAA Card Challenge #289: Color Challenge

 Hello, this fortnight we have another color challenge.

Use 3 or more if you can, and remember the colors don't have to be an exact match to the  challenge badge, as close as you can get it.

I've used Distress inks on white cardstock to make my own colored card, i've used Mowed Lawn and Twisted Citron, Picked Raspberry and Kitsch Flamingo.

Normally the centre of flowers would be yellow, but I went with the same white as my cardbase, so it's not an extra color.

I let the ink dry after  dragging the inkpads over the white cardstock.

Stamped the Get well sentiment from Clearly Besotted (Brushed Greetings II) with Versafine Black ink.

Adhered the flowers with liquid glue. They are from Marianne Design (LR0697)

I look forward to your makes.

Happy Easter

 Hello, Happy Easter.

Today I'm using a pretty sweet digi from Whimsy Stamps and Sylvia Zet: Springtime.

I thought the bunny  and the little chick are very "Easter".

I printed the digi and colored it with alcohol markers, them cut is to make a frame with the card base.

I don't have a Happy Easter stamp so I left it out and could use it for a birthday o or a welcome baby  as well.

You can find the digi in the Whimsy Shop:  https://whimsystamps.com/products/springtime-digital-stamp?_pos=30&_sid=4d4563260&_ss=r

AAA Colourful Challenge #15: Apr-May

Hello, this month  our game badge has blue leaves, but I saw ocean.

So for my card I inkblended a panel with  Distress inks (Salvaged Patina and Peacock feathers), let it dry; made it square for the window then diecut a window from the panel.

It's from Gummiapan (Seagrass) and traced the opening on the cardbase. I inkblended more Distress inks inside the lines (Prize Ribbon, Blueprint Sketch and Salty Ocean and splattered water for a bubble effect. Adhered the panel onto the cardbase.

I might add a fish later, but  for the color challenge, this is it

I look forward to your makes, you can enter them here.

Bunny Beans

 Hello, today I'm using a digi called Bunny Beans from Whimsy Stamps and the Dustin Pike line.

When we were little we played a trick on my younger brother when walking in the sand dunes we saw many a pile of "bunny Beans" and told him they were jelly beans (or kokindjes a licorice in the Netherlands) and he started picking them like it was gold dust ;-) we of course had to tell him at one point not to eat them!

Anyway onto the card: I printed the digi , cut it out and colored it with alcohol markers.

For the back ground I made a mask with the scan and cut as I don't have egg shapes dies, but you could use the Whimsy Stamps nested pierced egg dies.

Through the mask I added Distress inks: Tumbled Glass, Twisted Citron, Spun Sugar, Squeezed Lemonade, Dried Marigold and Shaded Lilac  with whatever was left on the inkblending brushes, just a hint of Easter eggs there for you, didn't want to do them black as if the basket was overflowing, it's Spring and I need Spring colors.

I mounted the bunny with foam tape and adhered him to the cardbase. The sentiment is a nod to the toilet paper roll...
