Sketch

This month it is Colour Scheme where your make should be inspired by this colour scheme, chosen by Kelsey:

This is my card:

I used a white card blank with leaves inked on it with distress and a Kate Crane stencil.

I then added the tulip die cut and the sentiment.

The sentiment is from Michelle Grant, printed and placed on dimensionals.

Color Dare #706

This picture shows my make for the

Color My Heart Color Dare Challenge DT

Do pop over to the Color Dare Challenge and take a look at my teamies' makes.

This picture shows the challenge -

I used both colours plus lilac and white.

I started with a white card blank matted with the first colour.

I then added shapes cut from cards of the other colours that have been embossed with an embossing folder.

Finally I added die cut sentiment.

Happy Crafting!

Conjurer of Dreams May Challenges

I am sharing more of my make for the Conjuror of Dreams DT.

The optional month's challenge is Pool Party:

I made some journal pages:

I recently took part in a Niamh Baly workshop where she used waterfall pages in a journal:

I thought this idea would be perfect for my pool party pages!

I started by preparing my backgrounds:

I used an image from Water ripples as collage paper on top of Dylusions Calipso Teal paint.

I then added Matisse fluid Titanium White paint through an Art by Marlene stencil - ATC-tinies. Finally I added edges and emphasis with white Poscas and shadow with a soft pencil.

I then started adding images and sentiments (These were random finds on my desk or drawn by me)
The first page uses the image from the challenge logo.
