I have just spent an amazing weekend with some real quality time with my little one - Harrison. We went to the scarecrow festival at Belbroughton yesterday, and today had a pyjama day watching Disney movies and catching up on housework.
After all that I've also had some me time in my craft room this evening, ready for the working week ahead. yawnnnnn!
I've made two cards both for little boys. (please scroll down for challenges at 'here come the boys' and 'passion for promarkers!) The first is dedicated to my little one who has a love of pirates. This LoTV stamp always reminds me of Harrison, especially with the little dog!
I want to enter this challenge into
- sketch and stash challenge 122.
- Papertake weekly - Sketchie free for all (Sketch 45)
I stamped the image and coloured with watercolour paint. I printed the backgrounds from a Kay Miller digikit and added glitter. It was from the same kit (high seas) I printed the pirate related sentiments. I used my new Tim Holtz distress tool to distress the edges before adding net and gems to finish.
My second creation was made using Cuddlybuddy digi stamps. I'm really liking the digi stamps - if you haven't tried them - please do. I just typed 'digi stamp' into google and loads of great sites came up. I cant believe I haven't thought of this before!!
Anyway - this is what I made and I want to enter it into:
Here come the boys challenge #61 baby boy
Passion 4 promarkers - one for the boys
Bearly-mine challenge - anything goes
7 kids college fund - Challenge #83 (Optional twist of promarkers)
for this I printed all the stamps I wanted onto card stock and coloured using promarkers
Vanilla, Tan, Sandstone, Denim, Blue pearl, blue grey, cool grey 1 and 3. blush and sunkissed pink
I then inked the edges using tumbled glass Tim Holtz distress ink, sprayed the sentiment with iridescent spray and sparkle from crafters companion and assembled using ribbon, and net
Thank you so much for stopping by - please leave me a comment so I know you've been!
