Life is just Peachy

This is my card for the CCEE Stampers blog challenge Peach. I went and dived into my older stamps and found this Penny Black/Mo Manning image from a few years ago.

Liz is hosting her last challenge for August today and  perhaps you did not realize August is Peach Month, and peach is also Liz's favorite color. So on your cards this week use the color peach or perhaps even a peach image or peach pie! Yummy!

Timeless Owl

Hi Crafting friends 

This week on Crazy4Challenges blog, we have been asked to make a card with a collage theme.

Make a background from various different paper

elements or use a paper that already looks like a collage.

My colour scheme was inspired by the designer paper. I chose the timepiece die pieces to match the owl and carried the theme into the inside of the card.

Go Wild little Monkey

This week on the CCEE Stampers blog we have been asked to honour National Zookeepers Day by creating a card with a zoo animal on it.

I have used the Karen Burniston's Paper frames pop up die from the April 20202 release for the center of my card. I have teamed it with the palm tree from the palm tree pop up die set and Jinx the Monkey and sentiment stamp set from her Elizabeth Craft Design days.
The front is just a simple lead into the main focal point inside.

Picnic Invitation

Today I am playing along with the CCEE Stampers blog design team, for this week's challenge card.

July 15th was National Hot Dog Day.  Make a card using something you would have at a picnic -- a hot dog, a hamburger, a checkered tablecloth, or maybe some ants!

I don't think ants receive an invitation but it certainly would't be a picnic without them.

 I have used some Lawn Fawn Slimline dies for my card base. I have used Stampendous stamps, that I have had for awhile, for my main image. Quick and easy stamp, colour and sponge in the clouds, layer and the card is finished.

Summer Fun

Hi Crafting Friends,

I have a fun interactive card today using the Lawn Fawn reveal wheel.
I made this card for the Crazy4Challenges design team challenge.

It’s the peak of summer in the North Hemisphere so let’s make a card or project inspired by your favorite summer activity. Beach, pool, travel, picnics, biking, hiking, sports, flying kites? What ever you love to do that makes summer fun.

 

 

 I die cut the reveal wheel and before assembling I coloured the pieces with distress oxide inks and stamped the sentiments. Once assembled I added the waves and the girl from the MFT - drink up the sunshine stamp set

Space Riding

Hi Crafting Friends

I have this interactive card today for the Challenge with the CCEE Stampers blog design team.

Today is World UFO Day. Make a card with something from space – the sun, the moon, a planet, a UFO, a rocket ship. Or, create a galaxy background for your card.

I have used dies from Karen Burniston to make my card. On the front I used the space charms and sentiment die sets. For the inside I use the Rocket pop up die set.

Video inspiration

Welcome to my blog today, my card was created for this weeks challenge, with crazies team on the Crazy4challenges blog.

For our challenge this week create a card using any technique that was inspired by a video.

I have spent some time lately taking stock of my supplies and ways to use them. There

are so many ways with videos out there to revisit on techniques. One that caught my eye

recently was Paper piecing using designer paper and stamps, which I found from Jennifer

McGuire. While I used the video for inspiration I final choice was the video of paper piecing a die cut image.

I have used the Tonic Studio die, Sending Love pretty pocket die set that was free in the Die-cutting essentials issue 61 magazine.

Birds of a feather

Welcome to today's card made for the CCEE Stampers blog challenge.

National Bald Eagle Day Today we celebrate the Bald Eagle. Make a card with a bird on it…extra points if it’s a Bald Eagle.

Well there are no extra points for me as I don't have any thing that resembles a Bald Eagle, but I found some nice designer paper with birds on it to use a a background. I thought it was about time I used some of my older (retired) products, they are just a waste sitting in the storage cupboard.

I have made a double platform in the center of the card using  Karen Burniston Lorna Label pop -up die (retired). It is my favourite way of using the pop up die.

Sweet Baby

Hi Crafting Friends,

It is week 3 on the Crazy4Challenges blog and that means it is time for a sketch challenge.

I was recently asked to make a welcome baby card, for a couple who were having a baby and liked pugs.

I didn't have any stamps of pugs, so I search clip art for my pug images. I created the inside of my card with the Karen Burniston photo collage pop-up. And added die cut words as embellishment.
