These are the latest ATC's I've made. The teddy bears were for a craft beautiful swap, and the bunny is for the ATC draw also on craft beautiful. I kept the tessy bear with a balloon, as I like to keep one of every set I complete.
These are soooooooooo cute, (I must've missed that swap on CB) Good idea to keep one of the set too, wish I'd done that on my last swap, still I guess I can always make some more! Thanks for following, Spyder's Corner, (least I'm guessing it's you, as there was no link, but how many snooptigger's can there be!! (Great name!)
Here's my latest creation. It is very different to my usual make. I normally make very simple designs and try to keep it quite clear. This time I decided to change that. Some of the paper I used was RAK from a swap I hosted at crafts beautiful. I am entering 3 challenges with this one. The first is forever friends which is to follow the sketch this week. The 2nd is sophisicat's which is ribbon and buttons. The last challenge (but no means the least) is crafty cardmakers which is using a stamped image. I am delighted that crafty cardmakers put me in their top 3 last week with the autumn theme.
I've spent time making cards today just because I wanted to. I am entering both of them into a challenge. Will try and link to the challenges but it's been a long time since my last blog so hopefully I will remember. The first card I made was the forever friends card as I fancied making a valentines card as I plan to try and sell them so need to upload a few to ensure that I can get some orders. This one is in the I love promarkers challenge as it is anything goes and I have coloured the stamped image with my promakers. I've just bought the colours for the forever friends and had my first go with that. I have also entered this one for crafty cardmarkers who are doing the challenge first and last. So you have to enter your first card and your latest. My first card was a quick pyramage print and slapped onto some white card with only the embellishments that was on the printout. I did not know about about gems and ribbons and something called matt and layering. This...
This is a card I spent a long time deciding where the elements were going to go rather than my normal decide when I am ready for the next layer. This meant that the ribbon was attached behind the paper and looks better than normal and I could get the brad in the corner. This is very different to my normal Christmas card. I normally would use silver, white, red, green or gold. I've never used pink as the main colour so this was a nice change. The sketch came from Sketch Saturday and the colour was from Die Cut Dreams both of whom are looking for members of their design team. I've never entered a competition for a design team place but thought that as my cards are getting better I should give it ago as you never know what could happen. I actually made a mistake with the sketch saturday and copied the wrong sketch for the DT. Nevermind I instead entered they normal entry. Unfortuntely as I left it too late I don't have time to make a new card as it would be rushed. P...
