Make My Monday - Romance

The theme for February at Make My Monday is Romance

 This week we want to see your

HEARTS AND FLOWERS -  both please and if you can manage a die cut or two that would be brilliant.

 

 

For my card I have Die cut two heart shapes (x-cut). The first one I have debossed with a little heart folder. I then "coloured" in the hearts with a Versamark pen and used Ranger Antiquities China Red EP. The other heart I stamped a floral pattern from Chocolate Baroque's Texture Fragments and embossed in gold. Distressed around the edges in DI Vintage Photo. Layered onto BP also distressed, added a sentiment from CB and a small die cut flower.

Thanks for looking,

Make My Monday/ PaperPlay

A new challenge at Make My Monday

This week the challenge is to create an autumnal card using the colours

ORANGE AND BLACK

There is also an optional extra to make your creation with a HALLOWEEN theme.


and at PaperPlay.....
Our challenge this week gives a nod in the direction of the upcoming festivities - "Use Black in your card/project". Now you don't have to do something Hallowe'eny for this, some of our DT have, some haven't - just let's see the colour black somewhere on your project.

 For my card I stamped a tree from Creative Expressions - Church and embossed in gold onto the black base card.  I masked a moon and stippled orange and green shades from Big and Juicy Spice, then stamped tree and horse and carriage from Chocolate Baroque Howling Moon set.  Mounted onto orange Core'dinations.

Thanks for looking

Make My Monday - Steampunk

Make My Monday has a new challenge

This is the first Monday in September at that means a brand new theme and challenges. This month they have been chosen by Cath and her theme is STEAMPUNK.
Steampunk is based around the Victorian era and tends to incorporate elements of science fiction and fantasy with futuristic innovations such as fashion, culture, architecture and art.
So that being said your first challenge is to create a STEAMPUNK ATC.

I recently bought the Steampunk Christmas stamp set from Chocolate Baroque, but otherwise I know nothing about this subject and I have never done an ATC!

So I did a little research, scoured through my stamps and came up with this.

Background is Adirondack Slate direct to paper.  Cogs stamp is Chocolate Baroque, Small Timepiece is Tim Holtz, Large Timepiece and Hot Air Balloon free with Craft Stamper  all stamped with DI Black Soot. Stamped a Cog, Timepiece and Balloon on a scrap with Versamark and embossed in silver, cut out and layered.

Thanks for looking, may have another go if I got time!
