Kiss Kiss - Daring Cardmakers DT

Happy Friday!

I'm pleased to report it's been a good week on a well deserved half term.  We've managed to recharge batteries and celebrate my youngest son's lockdown birthday too.

Did you know it's Kissing Friday today? No? Me either until I learnt about it and the latest Daring Cardmakers Challenge is all about kisses.......

It's funny as I helped a friend out using her new envelope punch and thought I'd use it for my card.  I made a tiny envelope and a cute liner to go in it as well.  I then added cut outs from a paper pad and stuck them on to a card blank that I had embossed.

I think the card ticks a lot of boxes as I have made a KISS card (keep it simple stupid), used the word KISS and and 'X' as well.

You can see more inspiration on the challenge and join in HERE.

Have a great weekend!

Clean & Simple With a Dash of Sparkle - Daring Cardmakers DT

Happy Friday!

It's odd as it doesn't seem like a Bank Holiday weekend does it?  The days really are all rolling into each other.  So, from a neighbourhood perspective we have been tasked to make an egg for our windows so the children can do an Easter Egg hunt.  That's on my to do list with the boys this morning.

Dawn has set the challenge for the Daring Cardmakers this week and she'd like to see clean and simple with some sparkle.

I must admit I wasn't sure about this one.  Now, I'm not afraid of white space on a card in the slightest but I was soooooo tempted to add a little bit more but then refrained!  I did use some products which I bought some time back and hadn't used so this was a good opportunity to use them.

I die cut a tag and then stamped clouds on it using distress oxide inks to give texture.  I then stamped, cut and coloured my birds using my Chameleon pens.  To finish I die cut a balloon heart from glitter card for the sparkle element and added some twine.  

I hope you'll join in with this challenge this week and you can see lots more inspiration HERE.

See you again next week,
