Colour challenge

I have decided to try a colour challenge with the Colour INKspiration crew. It is all going to be done on Facebook, but if we have a blog we can post there as well. So stay tuned I am going to try and keep on doing the colour challenge bi-monthly. It should be loads of fun and inspiration will be flowing freely.

 This is a card I made for the pre challenge. The colours we were to use are Bermuda Bay, Daffodil Delight and Mint Macaron. I masked a Whisper White piece of card and sponged the three colours. Then stamped over the sponging. The stamp set was one of our new ones from the Occasional Catalogue. It is the Balloon Adventures. The Mint Macaron base was created using the Scallop Tog Punch.

So what do you recon? Head on over to Facebook and check out all the other cards, there are so many talented people out there don't you think???

Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge

Happy New Year to all! It is time for a Mojo Monday Sketch and I am going to try my hand. This is part of my New Years Resolution, to "Get out there" and that means participating, so here goes.

This is the Sketch.

 

This is what I came up with. ..
I used 3 strips of  Wahsi Tape across the card ,  embossed the banner strips and then added the 2 circles which I had punched the centre out using the Pansy Punch to expose the Washi Tape. The colours I used were Daffodil Delight, Melon Mambo and Island Indigo

 

 So now that you have seen mine, head on over to Mojo Monday Card Sketch Challenge and take a look at all the clever ideas and get inspired.

CCMC336 - Colour Challenge

Hello everyone and Happy New Year! I have decided to hop out of my comfort zone and take part in a Challenge.

Create with Connie and Mary is back with some fabulous challenges for the New Year!  Today they are starting the new year off with this beautiful colour challenge! Using Real Red, Calypso Coral and Basic Black.

My creation has used 3 different embossing folders on the card strips and then I lay these behind the circles, punched out a butterfly and attached the Real red bow.

I hope you find some time to create a card for this challenge!  Head on over to Create with Connie and Mary and give it a try!  I'd love to see what you do!

Pals Paper Arts PPA186

 The Pals Paper Arts colour challenge this week uses Gold, Whisper White and Island Indigo.
One of the great things about My Digital Studio is being able to manipulate the size. In this card I have added the gold of this challenge in the form of an antique brad. Then I enlarged it to make it the background for my hearts and doves.

The Whisper white background I stitched with Island Indigo. Very easily accomplisehhed in MDS. Then I added the layer of Island indigo. The hearts were punches which I colour filled and the kissing doves is a stamp as is the "I do" sentiment. All of these stamps and punches were manipulated to change their sizes. I love that aspect of MDS so much.

Head on over and take a look at the Pals Paper Arts link and see what everyone has been creating.
