AAA Birthday Challenge #82

 Hello this month we want you to make a slimline card.

For mine I went with a night scene. Train to Busan springs to mind  though ;-) You might have seen that movie....

Anyway...

I started by cutting an A4 at 21 cm, making it square, then folding it in half for my slimline. the bit left over I  cut slightly smaller to make a nice border on the panel. 

On the panel I inkblended Distress inks: Mermaid Lagoon,  Blueprint Sketch, Prize Ribbon and Chipped Sapphire. Splattered with water and silver metallic paint.

The scene is  made with diecuts from the Amy Design set ADD10129 and  pfff all those windows..I started with 2 city scapes, but I couldn't  do another. I lined the black with yellow for lights, seems almost everyone is home... same for the train, I diecut another wagon to make it longer for the slimline. The bridge is also two sets in grey. Gave the train a nice red colour, just to make it pop.

Adhered everything to the cardbase and stamped the sentiment, it's from Clearly Besotted (Tiny Type).

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

AAA Card Challenge #307 Color Challenge

 

Hello, this fortnight we have a color challenge for you again.

Use at least 3 of 4, fur, skin and neutrals such as black or white, gold and silver are fine; and the colors don't have to be an exact match, just try your best.

For my stamping I've used Memento inks: New Sprout, Bamboo Leaves and Nautical blue

The brush stroke is a stamp from Marianne Design (Eline's Brush  EC0161 and the twig is also Marianne design (cs1143 Mistletoe), I stamped that on top with Versafine. I didn't realise it was mistletoe until I wrote down the supplies, I thought it was an Olive branch, so  you know it's versatile.

The sentiment is Whismy Stamps Simple Sentiment and I cut it out with the coordinating dies, then mounted it with foamtape.

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

AAA Card Challenges #306: Follow the Leader Francesca

Hello Happy New Year, we're back with a Follow my lead challenge, this fortnight it's Francesca's card we take inspiration from.



As it's January but I'm making this card well in advance (July if you must know) I went for Christmas. I could have done Winter wishes, but I found these diecuts in my stash, so Merry Chrsitmas it is ;-)

I inkblended the snowflakes on the cardbase (Studio Light SL-ES-Mask353) with Distress inks that were left on my blending brushes.

The little diecuts I had from my Christmas Card, all different brands, I think Joy Crafts, Gummiapan for the Bauble, but I'm not sure and Jeanine art house.














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

AAA Colourful #24

 

Hello, this month our theme is quite pink, like pink pink pink and some more pink...well it's almost Valentine's day, so I made one of those cards.

At first I wanted to use the Clearly Besotted Laugh out loud Love, but I didn't fancy any of them with my images which is also Clearly Besotted (Stupid Cupid)

I stamped the images with Extreme black ink from My Favorite Things and coloured them with Graph-it Brush markers and Spectrum Noirs.

Made the background with Distress inks and a cloud Stencil from Marianne Design (PS8024) and applied Picked Raspberry, Kitsch Flamingo and Spun Sugar and whatever was left on my inkblending brushes

Mounted the images with foamtape and adhered them to the cardbase.

The sentiment is also Clearly Besotted but went with Tiny type in the end and Versafine Morning mist

I'm looking forward to your card, you can enter them here.
