AAA Cards Challenge #318 Follow Marlies' lead

 Hello, this fortnight we follow Marlies' card. I see some interest on the right with jelly beans and a sentiment below it.

My sentiment placement was  kinda forced with the placement of the flowers.

My interest on the right side I made with a Lisa Horton 3d Embossing folder ( Lily of the valley blooms)

Then I die cut the Marianne design Lily of the Valley (LR0896) and I purposely used a off white cardstock as I thought they wouldn't stand out, could probably have inkblended them a little like I did with the green bits..didn't think  of it until just now ...oh well ...

The sentiement is from Simon Says Stamp (It's your birthday) and I stamped it with Memento inks (Cottage Ivy).

I look forward to your takes on the card, you can enter them here.

AAA Birthday Cards Challenge #87

 

Hello this month we'd like to see birthday cards for Girls.

For my card I used a My Favorite Things stamp  Fairy Happy, stamped it, let the Scan n Cut do the cutting and colored her with  alcohol markers, both Graphit Brush and Spectrum Noir.

The sentiment is from the same set and I stampe dit on the card base.

for the focal point I inkblended Distress inks through a circle mask and the Tropical Leaves mask from Studio light.

Mounted the fairy with foamtape and adhered her to the card.

I look forward to your cards and you can enter them here.

AAA Cards Challenge #317: Sketch Challenge

 

Hello, this fortnight we have a sketch for you. As  the 4th of July is almost here, I made a sketch with  some sort of Fireworks on a night sky. Now the colors and shapes are up to you, so could be anything.

I chose fireworks but as a New Year's card as we don't do the 4th of July celebrations in the Netherlands.

For my card I use a stencil from Stamperia (Stars) and colored it with Distress inks.

The sentiment is  My Favorite Things Bitty Holiday Wishes, messed it up so I made another , cut it out and placed it over the faulty one ;-)

I look forward to your takes on the card, you can enter them here.

AAA Colourful Challenge #29

 Hello, this month we have some pretty colours, but it took me a minute to figure out how to use them.

I came across an image of a bird and it seemed to have the perfect colours a Lilac Throated Roller.

for my bird I used a dieset from Nellie Snellen  (crs d022 bird on branch) it comes with a circluar frame, but I ended up cutting that off, it's as wide as my card front. I diecut it from watercolirng paper and applies Distress inks.

It's not the same bird, but I tried to  make it look like the Roller; I'v eused: Shaded Lilac, Seedless Preserves and Picked Raspberry to make th eshade fit better, lille bit of Wilted Violet in there too. Then Speckled Egg, Prize Ribbon and Peacock  feathers, Vintage photo for my neutral.

Mounted ienie tinie tiny bits of foamt behine the bird. while I was coloring the diecut I also splattered the same colours on the cardbase.

No sentiment as I don't know if it is stil Christmas or not.

I look forward to what you come up with, I think a pretty butterfly would also take these colours, you can enter your card here.

AAA cards Challenge #316

 

Hello this fortnight we have the 1+1 challenge again, centre prompt is Summer and I chose Beach for my +1.

For my card I stamped the crabs from Paperie Ink  (Crabby Feelings) , cut them out the colored them with Graphit Brush Markers, boy am I grateful for the fineliner tip ;-). White gel pen for shiny details.

The background I made by masking off a strip and I created the beach with Distress inks Scattered Straw, then  reverded the mask and inkblended the sea with Tumbled Glass at first, but it looked  dirty, so I went over it with Memento inks Bahama Blue. Splattered with water so it looks like sea spray.

I look forward to your takes on the card, you can enter them here.

AAA Cards Challenge #315: Sketch Challenge

Hello, this fortnight we have a sketch for you. As it's May I thought let's make a Christmas card hehe...Ok Ok I wanted to do flowers but I thought let's steer away from the literal sketch (for once), of course it's up to you.

I've used the My Favorite Things Simply Snowflakes with Nellie Snellen Snowflakes (Sil039) and a bunch of Card Deco inks : Light Blue, Sky Blue, Ultramarine and Grey for the dots.

The sentiment is also My Favorite Things: Bitty Holiday Wishes  and I used the Whimsy Stamps Simple Sentiment Strips to cut it out, then moutned it with foamtape and adhered it to the card.

For a bit of sparkle I added three mini gemstones to the centre of the snowflakes, like frosted ice crystals.

 

I look forward to your takes on the card, you can enter them here.
