Chocolate Heaven - Daring Cardmakers DT

Happy Friday!

I hope you've had a good week - we've had lots of family time this week which has been good.  I can't believe the school holidays end next week!

As it's the Easter weekend, the Daring Cardmakers have decided to go with a chocolate theme due to the volume of chocolate that may be consumed!  

My creation is a fun one this week as I decided to create a bar of chocolate with card and I even added kitchen foil for part of the wrapping!!!  My images were stamped and coloured in using my Nuvo Alcohol pens.

You can see more inspiration from the rest of the Design Team HERE and I hope you'l join in!

Have a great long weekend and I'll see you again soon,

Up, Up & Away - Daring Cardmakers DT

Happy Friday!

How was your week?  My husband had his booster so I can tick that off my list.  Thankfully no side effects either so I didn't have to play nurse!

The Daring Cardmakers theme this week is Up, Up & Away and you can use balloons or hot air balloons.  I decided on a single balloon and got out a preloved die set I bought last year which I hadn't used.  I'm on a mission to try and use more of the supplies I have this year.

As well as the balloon, I die cut a square frame and used my paper pad to add some interest to the background.  I stamped the bear and coloured him in with my Tonic Nuvo alcohol markers.  I still need to make a proper chart for the marker colours but haven't had time yet.

I love the Heffy Doodle sentiment strips and this one I stamped out in red and black and stuck onto some paper to finish.  I used the co-ordinating die set to cut it out.

Have a lovely weekend!

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,
