Cheers!!!

Morning -hope everyone is well and ready to join our new ATG/Dies/stencils challenge at Create and Inspire-sponsore by Sweet Escape Digis,and as I am now sorted with a new printer I used the beautiful image "Cheers",coloured with promarkers and added glossy accents.

I cut the image out and used silicone gel for depth and placed on a Spellbinders die-cut frame--the background was made using two shades of oxide ink through a Dutch Doobedoo and a TH stencil,the strips of adhesive gems from Home Bargains,also used one for an ear-ring.

Monty Python Inspired

Morning and we were absolutely devastated yesterday I went to let our two ducks Daphne and Derek out to find the duck house side broken into fox pawprints all over outside had found a weak spot and ducks gone-we have had them from 4 days old!!! Chickens were on high alert and not a peep out of any of them all day-my son saw the fox walking down the street the other night and said it was big and with a very big bushy tail-next door neighbour said he haerd a commotion at 3am but couldn't see anything!!!

Right onto card we have a new Monochrome challenge at Daisy Chain starting today and yyyaaaaayyy this is the first one-layer CAS card that I am actually pleased with a Monty Python inspired card,Stamps used are Inkylicious,Lisa Horton from Creative Expressions and the hand is part of a collage stamp from Docrafts I do believe(lost the wrapper)sentiment stamp was from a craft mag freebie set and I drew the lines with a Sharpie and a ruler and red lips was also a sharpie.

Greatness Girl

Morning and I have 4 DT posts today the second one is for 613 Avenue Create and the challenge is ATG/Use Vellum-now as I thought I had vellum but turns out not to be the case I went ATG and made a postcard.I covered thick cardstock in kitchen roll-then when dry smooshed it through watered down oxide ink-then I overstamped with Soapy Bubbles-Positive then stamped Inspired by Banksy-Greatness Girl onto card and distress ink round edges-I did try stamping straight onto the background but because of uneven surface had to cover by stamping onto card-both stamps from Bee Crafty.

HappBee Birthday

Morning and here we are in April already!!! I have 4 DT posts today-the first one is for a GDT spot at Stamping Sensations and the challenge is "One For The Girls"-thank you for the invite ladies.I started by stamping the Chocolate Baroque Bee in versamark onto white card and embossing with white EP,then covered card with a couple of colours of oxide inks-then used ink with texture stamps and through sequin waste.The stitched square dies are from The Works,floer and foliage dies from Elizabeth Design Dies,pearl/stamens and paper flowers from stash using silicone glue over cheescloth-sprinkled with Ranger distress glitter to hide any visible glue-I then stamped sentiment and Bee in black onto smallest square and doodled round the edge.
