    Use spots or stripes

    November 4, 2019

    Hi friends Its November already and cold and windy here in Scotland. So more reasons to stay in and create! Ha. As if I need an excuse. This month at The Flower Challenge we are incorporating spots or stripes into our designs. I added some striped paper with the beautiful sweet peas by Altenew, gold heat embossed and water coloured with Mijello Mission gold paints. We are sponsored this month and there is a prize! by Top Flight Stamps whose store sells a variety of stamps by companies such as Hero Arts and Crafters Companion as well as some smaller companies. Looking forward to seeing what you create!

    Keeping it to see CAS with Casual Fridays stamps

    October 4, 2019

    Hello! We are encouraging you to make CAS cards this month at the flower challenge. And we are sponsored by Casual Fridays stamps who are very generously giving away a voucher to the winner. Whoop! I hope you will check out all the design team inspiration, and here is my card using the pretty posies stamp set and sentiment by Casual Friday. For some added extra interest I put my sentiment vertical and hand drew a flower stalk through the sentiment. I used my Mijello mission gold water colour paints to add some colour to the beautiful blooms.

    Hey Our challenge for September is ‘Anything Goes’ MFT are offering two prizes for two of our winners! We also have the fabulous Michele Ferguson providing inspiration as our Guest Designer.

The beautiful white heat embossed floral spray is fresh-cut flowers by MFT. I paired it with an older MFT background stamp (can’t remember the name sorry) and I stacked the MFT thanks die in black and gold for dimension. I hope you will join us at The Flower Challenge and check out the other DT…

    Trio of Hello Cards | Winnie and Walter

    February 22, 2019

    Hiya I have never created duplicate cards before but the current Winnie and Walter Challenge with Heather to create a set of cards pushes me out my comfort zone. I used my Misti and leaf images from Addies Garden to create three identical backgrounds. I then coloured them all messily with peerless watercolours. Next I die cut the Winnie and Walter big hello die from black and white cardstock and stacked them for dimension. The little sentiments where from Simon Says Stamp You + Me. Hope you like them! I am also entering this into the following challenges: Layering die cuts with Jessica
