Keep it Simple at Try it on Tuesday

We're keeping it Simple at for our new challenge at Try it on Tuesday  

I've used a very old Hero Arts stamp, stamping and clear heat embossing onto white watercolour card.  I've used Kitsch Flamingo to colour and for a little extra interest, splattered some watery ink. A couple of die cut frames and done!  Simple

The rest of the Design Team have some varied inspiration for you, so please pop over to the main blog for all the challenge details.

Thanks for calling in, we're off to the park today - after a rainy day yesterday, two little people will probably need to use up some pent up energy.

Summer Blooms at TioT

 It's time for a new challenge at Try it on Tuesday and for this fortnight it's Summer Blooms.

I made this card a few weeks ago,  my first play with this stamp and fortunately, it fits the challenge with the Honeysuckle blooms by Lavinia.  I say fortunately, as unfortunately I fell foul of the dreaded Covid 3 weeks ago.  Having had 3 jabs, I'm surprised at how poorly I felt - and as for Mr Mojo, well, he did a runner and hasn't been seen since!  Hopefully he'll be back when he realises I need to catch up again with DT challenge cards.

The rest of the Design Team have some great inspiration for you, so please pop over to the main blog, where you will find all the details.

Thanks for calling in and I hope to catch up with you all soon.

Have a great day, Avril xx

Make it Feminine at TioT

 

Our new challenge at Try it on Tuesday is Make it Feminine.  I decided to use an old Stampendous image - Rose Corset which hasn't seen ink for a long time.

I've used White linen cardstock and after stamping and colouring the image, I used a Lavinia flower stencil.  The sentiment is a magazine freebie.

The rest of the DT have some wonderful inspiration for you, so please pop over to the main blog for all the challenge details.

Thanks for calling in, have a great day.

Mid month Inspiration at Stamping Sensations

 

It's time for mid month inspiration over at Stamping Sensations where the current challenge is Anything Goes with the Option of Summer Flowers.  There's also the chance for one lucky entrant to win a £25 store voucher from Crafty Individuals.

I've used an AALL&Create stamp and sentiment on a background made with pansy petals (placing between two sheets of card and then running through the Cuttlebug)  I stamped the image onto the pansy panel and then re-stamped coloured with DIs and fussy cut the flower heads for a more defined flower.

The rest of the Design Team have some fabulous inspiration to share, so please pop over to the main blog, where you will also find all the challenge details.

Make it Magical at Try it on Tuesday

Our new challenge at Try it on Tuesday is Make it Magical, so a great opportunity to use my little fairy Bella from Lavinia Stamps.  

I've created a little scene with lots of foliage  stamps from Lavinia and the clouds from a TH Christmas set.  The sentiment was free with a magazine.  All colouring was done with Distress inks.

The rest of the DT have created lots of magic for your inspiration, so please pop over to the main blog where you will find all the details.

Thanks for calling in, this is going to be a busy week with 'extra' babysitting duties as Laura is off to a Wedding on Friday,  but hopefully I'll be able to do some catching up at the weekend.

Have a great day whatever you're doing, we'll be playing with water and trying to keep two active little people in the shade.
