Global Design Project: CASE the Designer..

Hey,

Happy Sunday to you.

I loved the idea of the current Global Design Project challenge -

You have to CASE the card shown above, in any way you chose.

What a fun idea!

I decided to use the flowers, gingham, blue and loosely the card layout.

My flower vase is by Paper Smooches (Best Buds) I stamped and coloured it using Copics and then die-cut it to size with a stitched rectangle die.

I layered gingham and blue papers to roughly fit the card layout and I added the die-cut flower panel with foam tape to pop it up a bit.

The sentiment is by Hot Off the Press.

My card ended up with quite a springy feel and I like it.

Daring Cardmakers: July Elemental Challenge...

Hey,

Happy Sunday to you.

I am obviously quite happy with the current World Cup situation, my nerves will be shot to pieces on Wednesday though, during the semi-finals!

I found this awesome challenge Daring Cardmakers yesterday and I LOVED the cue-card -

I am loving yellow right now.

You have to use at least 3 of the elements from the card above on your project.

I chose, Flowers, Foliage and Colours (Pink and Yellow).

I love flower vase stamps and especially the ones by Unity Stamp Co. The one I have used today is from the 'First friend, best friend, forever' set and it is totally overused!

I watercoloured it using distress ink and then stamped the sentiment (from a freebie set). I then used foam tape to mount it to my card base.

I added sequins, gems and glitter glue for some extra sparkle.

I love bright and cheerful cards like this. A great addition to my stash.

Catch The Bug GDT: Anything Goes..

Hey,

Happy Saturday to you!

My time as Guest Designer with the Catch The Bug team for their Saturday challenge is nearly over. I have had so much fun, but it's not quite over yet, I'll be here all the way through July.

This week we have everyone's fave - Anything Goes.

I love the beautiful Flower Butterfly Vase stamp, I thought it would look lovely when coloured and I wasn't wrong!

Because the stamp is so beautiful, I kept the card really simple and just added a fave Concord & 9th sentiment.

Hope you will be playing along too. Can't wait to see which image you choose to use.

Upload your makes at the Catch The Bug blog and check out the rest of the DT makes.
