Mother's day card!!!




This is a card I have made for my own mum. I really liked the mischevious kitten image and I think she will too. I am still experimenting with new layouts and colours as I don't want my stuff to look too samey. I am going to enter this into as many challenges as I can find. This is only the second easel card I have ever made too.

Image was a free digital image by motivet coloured in with Promarkers. I also used a little gold pearlescent chalk around the image so it didn't look too flat and a little pink pearlescent chalk on the flower (It's probably more noticable in real life) I also used glossy accents on the eyes and nose.
Papers are from Summer Driggs "Angel Mother" free downloadable kit - Inks used to distress the edges
Yellow and chocolate textured card from DCWV
Brown crochet ribbon from quixotic
Yellow ribbon, fabric flowers and diamantes from stash
Sentiment done on computer - font is scriptina which is one of my favourites!

Get well soon card!!!




I made this today as I saw that there was a few challenges out there for a get well soon card. I made this in spring colours also as I could then enter it into the spring challenges too. I added butterlies and distressing techniques as that meant I could enter it into a few more challenges - Talk about multi-tasking!!!!

This is my entry for guest designer on Mo's Dream Team. The crieria is to use a Mo image and follow the sketch provided although it could be flipped or inverted which I have done. I hope it fulfills all the criteria as I have never made a challenge card outside of the Docrafts website before but would love to be on a design team even if it's only a guest spot!!!

Image is end of summer coloured in with my promarkers
Papers are from Summer Driggs fabulous free downloadable kits
Blue textured card from DCWV
Random fabric flowers coloured in with promarkers to match the flowers on the backing paper - I used yellow pom-poms for the flower centres as I feel as this is a younger card it looks more fun!

Imagine metal plaque from making memories
Pink pearls and ribbon from stash
