Addicted to Stamps and More Challenge #530. Diecuts and/or Stencils

 

This is my Die cut/Stencil project...for Challenge #530
at Addicted to Stamps and More

This card started with a 5 by 7 blue card blank, matted with a piece of designer paper.

I then added a layer of grey designer paper under the die cut on a glossy paper.

Hope you will enter the Addicted to Stamps and More Challenge! Do hop over to see the fabulous inspiration from my team-mates!

7th Annual Treasure Trovember 2026 - first seven days

  I decided to join the November Trovember Challenge instigated by

Collage-Lab

I discovered this event last year...

These are my first 7 days with the suggested prompts. 

I started with an A3 piece of substrate.

Day 1 - Add a wonky grid.

I used pages from my calendar torn into pieces.

Day 2 - Add something tall.

This cat came from Extraordinary Things to Cut Out and Collage by Maria Rivans. I thought it was tall compared to my page.

Day 3 - add repetition 

I added a stamped image using a stamp from my stash. It has a bird and musical notes on it.

Day 4 - add a sound

I used music paper with letters.

Day 5 - add an occupation

The image came from Daphne's diary.

Day 6 - add something cool

This picture was in a book I found in an op shop "Folon".

Day 7 - add a doll

I found a paper doll in a copy of Daphne's Diary.

November Conjurer of Dreams ATC Challenge

             

These are my makes for the 

Conjurer of Dreams

MONTHLY ATC Challenge

with a freebie image set. 

The theme this month is Granny Tea Time.

I used the ATC backs on scraps of blue card. I then added the fussy cut images.

I usually make these ATCs while watching television so this is where I started - I then added some more embellishments...

I added thread to the balls of wool and pins to this basket.

I added a little colour here and there with markers and ribbon roses to the coffee and tea pot.

 As a Grandma, I think the expression on this next lady's face is most like me...

I added teaspoons to this ATC.

I will link these to the challenge.

Color Dare #728

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 -

Today's card uses a variety of techniques.

I used a white card base matted with yellow. The next layer was formed first with brushos. I then added stencilled images using a Tracy Evans stencil and some handmade ones.

I then added the die cut trees  and the sentiment (again die and stamp  from Tracy Evans).

I made a set of these cards after doing a workshop with Amanda Branston.
