Here is my inspiration for you this month.

To make this card, I used four different patterned papers..some from my scraps and a sketch from 

the Retrosketches blog!

I used sequins from the Crazy Crafter!

It is an awesome craft supplies store run by Sudha Kalra.

The sentiment is from my brand new birthday stamp set from Concord and 9th

 and the wooden butterfly button is from my stash.

Pumpkin Happiness

Hey everyone!

I am playing the Friday Mashup # 227(pumpkins and frames) challenge  this week.

I realised I didn't have a pumpkin stamp or image, so I decided to draw the pumpkins myself! 

They are not perfect, but I love the overall look of the card.

The Polaroid die is from Lawn Fawn and the sentiment is from Verses rubber stamps.

I used watercolours and colour pencils to colour my pumpkins and gave the card base a distress ink and water wash.

To finish, I added a bow of bakers twine and some wooden buttons from my stash.

Thanks so much for stopping by...

Have a good evening!

It's all about DAD!

Summer butterflies

I have a card today for the Simon Says Samp Summer challenge...

I used the Simon Says Stamp Stitched squares die to create a polaroid like frame for my gorgeous butterfly buttons. I created a summery background with the flower stamp from an Inkadinkado stamp set. I finished it off with a bold sentiment from Hero Arts.

I am submitting this for the ATCAS  code word Butterfly challenge as well.

A pretty, bright and cheerful card, I think!
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Have a good night!

Making tags using hand carved stamps

Hey all!
I have been having fun making tags using some of the hand carved stamps that I had made a while ago.

some of the stamps are really tiny and extremely simple and I have managed to make some fab backgrounds with them.
I added some free digi flowers which I  downloaded and coloured with copics, some gemstones, some charms, handmade paper flowers,foam letters( from EK success), feathers, buttons, brads and twine for extra pop!

I am submitting this card for the Color Q challenge.

Hope you have had fun reading this post!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Have a good night!
