I was shown this technique by Jan in a recent Zoom Craft and Chat with the Uk Stampers Network.

It is basically formed of lunched circles cut in half and arranged in spirals.

Conjurer of Dreams Seasonal Challenge

 

             

This is my make for the

SEASONAL CHALLENGE - details are HERE. 

This is to make a Seaside Shadow Box and this is my creation.

My Shadow box is a wooden hexagonal shelf...

The frame is quite large so I used a 12 by 12 seascape from BeeArty on the back. 

The sentiment is also from BeeArty.

I then added the lighthouse from Gothic lighthouses

I then added the cat merpeople fussy cut from Mermaid Cats

Finally I added some pieces picked up on the shore.

Happy Crafting!

A set of collaged ATCs...

Day 10 - window

Day 11 - quiet

Day 12 - burden

Day 13 - left

Day 14 - chance

Day 15 - edge

Day 16 - common

Day 17 - between

Day 18 - surface

Sketch

This month it is a Sketch where your make should be inspired by this idea, chosen by Margaret:

This is my second make:

I used a silver card base followed by mats of black and patterned paper. I then added the image and sentiment - the latter is Art By Marlene also on black and patterned paper - and finally some gems.

 

Happy Crafting! Hope you will join in the challenge...

Color Dare Challenge #716

      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 - in the card blank plus one set of circles. I then added blue for the other set of circles. This technique was shared by Jan in a recent Zoom craft and chat.

I then added the sentiment - a word cut from a floral paper which is in the same colours - although the neutral looks a bit more orange.

Happy Crafting!
