Ribbons & Bows!

February 28th 2013

A fun new challenge at Wicked Wednesday this week with Dilly Beans as our sponsor! We want you to use ribbons & bows on your ATC - so lets see what you can do! I just love this gorgeous new image from Megan at Dilly Beans! She has been coloured with Copic Markers and I added strips of  ribbon and a bow!

Queen of Hearts Tag

February 25th 2013

Finally got my February tag made for Tim Holtz 12 Tags of 2013! As I mentioned last time I don't always have al the "ingredients" specified so I have improvised and added my own style! Queen of Hearts image is from Angie Delarie Scrapbooking. Background is Distress Stains, I used a couple of embossing folders I had for the black card, a little hand stamp pointing to the "I love you" pendant and some japanese washi tape for the tie at the top.

And don't forget our "Anything but a Card" Challenge still has a week to go at The Cheerful Stamp Pad - lots of inspiration from the DT at the blog! and so much scope for wht you can create and enter as well!!

Amore!

Finally finished my Febraury Calendar pages for The Kathryn Wheel Calendar Challenge. This month I used the credit card technique to cover the background with paint then did some sponging, stamping, doodling, added punchies for the days of the week. The gorgeous images are from Michelle Perkett Studio and were printed onto tissue paper then adhered to the pages with Mod Podge along with the "February" Word Art. I added some lacey border sticker to the top of each page. I'm really happy with how this month turned out!!! Now onto March LOL!!!
