You're A Hoot

Hello

Todays card is for the latest challenge over at Cardz 4 Guyz,This week we would like youto make a 'Shaker card'.

I have used a Joanna Sheen Hoot stamp for the image on my card, which was stamped onto white card, coloured with ProMarkers and cut out. The background was made using a punch to cut the moon from the navy card. On the reverse of the panel I adhered a piece of acetate over the aperture. The aperture was then lined with a 3mm thick foam tape. A few sequin stars were then added, before the aperture was sealed with a piece of yellow card. The image was then stuck over the front of the moon and the card was completed with a heat embossed sentiment and the addition of a few more stars.

I hope you like my creation.

Thanks for stopping by, and I hope to see you again soon.

Poppy Passion

Hello All

It's time once again for another new challenge at Cardz 4 Galz,and this time round we would like to see your 'No Patterned Papers', female themed cards.

I have used an old Stampin' Up image for my card, that I have masked to use parts of the stamp, rather than the whole. It has been simply coloured with ProMarkers, before being matted with a coordinating red layer, then mounted onto a black card base.I have also used a scallop tag punch to create the card closure.

Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you come back really soon.

On The Wild Side

Hi All

Well another week has whizzed by, and once again it is time for a new challenge over at Cardz 4 Guyz. This week we would like to see your 'In The Country' themed cards.

I have used 2 Stampin' Up sets to create my card - The Wilderness Awaits and Lovely As A Tree.

First, I stamped the stag and coloured it with ProMarkers. This was then masked, before stamping the background trees using both first and second impressions. I then cut a circle mask, that I used to cover over part of the image to create the moon, before using distress inks to tint the sky. The image was simply mounted then adhered to a Kraft card blank and it was finished with the addition of a sentiment.

I would like to enter my card in the following challenges;

Retarte - anything goes
