Christmas Card Club challenge #13 - Large Sentiment

 Hi Crafters,

Our challenge this week was to use a large sentiment and this is what I came up with.

My image is from CraftsUprint which has been cut out and popped up on foam, I have added some glitter dots and gold peel-offs for extra detailing.

A little late on parade again this time but hopefully it isn't 3 strikes and I'm out :o)


Take care,

Lorraine

As it is Saturday that means a new challenge at Allsorts.

I created my card using a Carnation Crafts die set called 'Elderberry Frame' and flowers from the 'Rural Floral' set. My sentiment is a Paper Boutique die.

Allsorts Challenge #733 - ATG/ Blooms, Bees, Butterflies

 Hi Crafters,

Well Summer has certainly arrived in my neck of the woods and it's been hot, hot, hot! This has brought the wildlife, insects and flowers in to our garden so it's very apt that our challenge this week at Allsorts is just that...

ATG/BLOOMS, BEES, BUTTERFLIES


I created a set of ATC's recently for a swap and hadn't blogged them yet so thought these were perfect for our theme this week.
Lots of Distress Oxide inks for the background created using the 'smooshing' technique and the stamping is using one of my very small collection of ALL & CREATE stamp sets - #449 Through the Meadows.

Prizes for the next few weeks are from



Take a peek at the other ladies creations in the design team by following their links on the challenge blog, they have all made some fabulous projects to inspire you.

I hope you have a wonderful weekend.
