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.

The next image is from Retro Swamp Monster

Next we have Rats its a pool party

I couldn't not have the Super Heroes as these are my 4 year old grandson's favourite characters at the moment.

Finally I have the Seniors Pool Party. This reminds me of my friends and I at Aqua Aerobics...

I had great fun making these pages!!

Follow the link to find out more about What's on Your Work Desk Wednesday and maybe join in... This is my post for WOYWW #886

Here is my workdesk:

Not a lot to share today - and then I forgot it was Wednesday so I am sharing very late - this comes with being distracted looking after Ollie. He was pickled up and then I have no idea what I did!!

I am sharing my next few Tiny pieces of Art - the theme for May is Autumn. Of course we in Australia are heading in to winter!

Of course my next long challenge will be ICAD so these will be a similar format...

Not sure what I will be doing craftwise in the next couple of weeks as we are away both weekends.

Lovely to see all your blogs on WOYWW... I did manage to get round to everyone last week !

Addicted to Stamps and more # 518 Birthday

 

  

Here's my Birthday project...for the Challenge #518 at Addicted to Stamps and More

I started with a white card blank matted with dark blue.

To this I added layers of yellow papers, the final piece die cut.

I then added the greeting die cut and some faux stitching with a fineliner.

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

Happy Crafting!

What's on your Work Desk Wednesday #885

             

Follow the link to find out more about What's on Your Work Desk Wednesday and maybe join in... This is my post for WOYWW #885

Here is my workdesk:

What can you see on my work desk that's different?

Well there are a few stamped images, a couple of new stamp sets on the right - and one from Temu on the left!

I was intending sharing my next Tiny pieces of Art but I have yet to photograph any May pieces.

This week I thought I would get my sewing machine out as I had a couple of things in mind. However it was being a pain so I managed some junk journal sewn pockets 

and then took to my hand...this is also to add to a junk journal using old jeans pockets to make pockets.

I received an ATC swap today the theme was steampunk chic.

This was mine:

Lovely to see all your blogs on WOYWW... I did manage to get round to everyone last week but I hope I be earlier this week.
