PINK AND GREEN - 2nd entry

This card again is "Pink and Green" for the Crafters Companion October blog challenge.

A little more simpler with just matting and laying.  Have used a die cut decoupage from Crafters Companion, one of the Moorheads design.  Still can't stop using my Elegant Edges Cricut Cartridge, I am sure the novelty will wear off soon!

PINK and GREEN

This month is BREAST CANCER  awareness month and Crafters Companion's blog competition is to design a card using Pink and Green colours. Mum's a survivor she had Breast Cancer in 1993 and had a complete removal and 6 months of Chemo.  Always support this cause.

I have used one of my SWALK stamp images and have coloured this using my lovely spectrum noir pens.
I recently managed to get hold of the cricut cartridge Elegant Edges and it's brilliant, a bit like have a whole drawer of MS punches.

This is my entry for the CC blog "Pink and Green" card.

WORLD CARD DAY

What a lovely idea, a day for card making, but I guess who needs an excuse?
I just love playing with my Crafters Companion products, they are always such good value for money.

Just love Humphrey, can't stop using my  Die cut decoupage kit.

Glitter and Glitz

I have just received my first lot of Spectrum Noir pens from Crafters Companion and they are amazing.   Couldn't wait to start colouring and therefore decided to do this card for the Monthly Challenge "Glitter and Glitz"

The products I have used are :-
6 x 6 card stock
Humphrey Stamp
Tim Holtz Distressed Ink Chipped Sapphire
Crafters Companion Centura Pearl Turquoise card
SWALK Cd 2 backing paper
Circle Nestabilities
Scalloped Circle Nestabilities
Paper Flowers from 3 birds pack - Crafters Companion
Mulberry yellow roses
Turquoise Ribbon
Stickles glitter glue - crystal
Spectrum Noir Pens #BG1, BG4, 38,45,37,35,73,178,171,68,65,64,

I have put little blobs of stickles on her dress to give it a glitzy look, the stamp has been coloured with the wonder Spectrum Noir pens.   I have also put stickles glue around the edges of the turquoise card where it abuts the yellow backing paper.    The blue flowers were coloured by using Spectrum Noir Pen #65 and then adding the mulberry roses with a little collall gel.  I have also put some stickles on the yellow roses so that they twinkle !  The ribbon was one I had in my crafty stash, which just matched a treat.   The edges of the circle were then distressed with chipped sapphire Tim Holtz Ink

More Cards "One for the Boys"

Cards for men always seem to be far more difficult to design.   I myself find it hard to find embellishments to add,  these two cards are again being entered into the Crafters Companion July monthly challenge.

Entry 2 is a sideways easel card, 6"x6" with various layers of matting and layering, I have used my  Cuttlebug and some Spellbinders Nesterbilities,  the embellishments are card candy spots.  This is the first time I have made one of these sideways cards.

Entry 3 is a gate fold card with from a 6"x6" square card,   again various matting and layering and also this time I have used one of my Cuttlebug  and one of the Embossing folders

Entry 4 is again a 6"x6" card using one of  my SWALK volume 2 "Best Dad" stamp from Crafters Companion and this has been coloured with my Watercolour pencils,
