Very Superstitious - Daring Cardmakers DT

Happy Friday!

I've done a lot of gardening and cooking this week!  I think we need to grow more vegetables next year so I've been investigating.

This week is a fun challenge over on the Daring Cardmakers and it's all to do with superstitions.  I must admit I am not superstitious in the slightest but had fun using different superstitions on my card.

To begin with I stamped and coloured in a black cat (bad luck) which is holding an umbrella (bad luck if opened indoors).  Next I die cut the number 13 (unlucky for some) and used some green both with the paper pad and the umbrella colour as it is also deemed unlucky.

I added mirri card for the number 13 as breaking a mirror is 7 years bad luck so incorporated that too as well as the number 13.  Lots of superstitions covered I think!

You can see lots more inspiration on the blog HERE and I hope you'll join in.

Have a lovely weekend,

Feeling Under The Weather - Time for Tea Designs DT

Happy Wednesday!

I think the card I've made for today's post is very apt given the mixture of weather we've had lately.  We've certainly been spotting a good few rainbows too in case you missed a real one I've added one to my card! 

Once again, I've used a couple of the Time for Tea Designs new release stamps sets - the All Occasion Critters and the Storms Don't Last Forever sets.

My background was made using the Scene It and Splish Splash stencils together with distress oxides.  I used the die cut rainbow from the Storms Don't Last Forever set and coloured with distress oxides.  I then added clouds that I stamped and die cut from the same set.

The cute cat was coloured with my Chameleon markers, die cut then adhered along with the sentiment.  I added splatters of water to the puddle to make it more realistic.

I hope you have a good week and see you again later in the week,

So Grateful For You - Time for Tea Designs DT

Happy Weekend!

Time for Tea Designs has a new release which came out yesterday.  It is huge and has a mix of everyday and Christmas products.  Today I'm showcasing a combination of the new release stamp sets - the Background Stamp and the All Occasion Critter Stamp to form a cute scene. It's definitely somewhere I'd love to live as it looks so idyllic!

I used the Circle of Love dies to make my circular Easel card.  Next, I stamped and masked the Background Scene stamp and used the Sunnyside Up stencil as the backdrop.  

I coloured in the background using a mix of Chameleon pens and Distress Oxide ink pads to form a scene.  I then went on to die cut the rabbit and bees from the All Occasion Critters stamp.  After colouring them in I adhered them to my scene.

A frame from the mini frame & border die set was cut and used as a stopper for my easel card.

You can see and purchase all the new releases HERE and don't forget to use my code T4TSHABNEEZ10 for a 10% saving on anything in store!

Enjoy your weekend!
