Have A Hoot! - Daring Cardmakers DT

Happy New Year!

My first post of 2022 and it's also the January Elemental Challenge over on the Daring Cardmakers.   I've chosen the mood board this time and have gone for something a little different.

It felt like a long time since I'd got my distress oxide inks out so I ink blended my background and added some water to make it react.  

I then stamped my images and coloured them in with a new purchase.  I bought the Tonic Studios Nuvo Alcohol Markers and made use of them!  They blend well are very different to the Chameleon Pens which I am used to but I like how they work differently.  To finish I die cut the 'Happy Birthday' sentiment and assembled my slimline card.

Here is the image from which you need to choose 3 elements - colours count as 1.  I chose the colours, bird and branches for my creation.  You can see the rest of the Design Team inspiration HERE and I do hope that you will join in!

Have a lovely weekend and see you next week,

Say It Loud - Daring Cardmakers DT

Happy Friday!

I have a man down today - a cold but he seems to be suffering so a bit of rest and TLC and he'll be fine for Monday hopefully!

This week the Daring Cardmakers would like to see you use words as your focal point - the bolder the better!  I used one of my favourite birthday dies on my card and used the negative to make a shaker.  

The background was one I had in my stash.  It was a mop up from another project I had done and I thought it worked really well with this simple underwater scene.

The little turtle is just so cute and I coloured him up with my chameleon pens and added a party hat from the same set.  To finish I added a speech bubble with a fun sentiment.

You can see lots more inspiration from my fellow DT HERE and I hope you'll join in.

I hope you have a lovely weekend and see you next week,
