Pastel angel

I love this next challenge we have for you at ABC Challenge.  S is for Shaped Cards.  These take me ages to do but I love doing them!

We're sponsored this time by The Ribbon Girl and Lacy Sunshine.  This image is Dreaming of my Love.

She's been coloured with ProMarkers in soft pastel shares, cut out with a Spellbinders die, the edges of this distressed with Milled Lavender ink from Tom Hotlz.

Here's a close up of the flower arrangement.  This has some wood chip from Scrapienic, mixed roses, apple blossom and tulips - all can be found at The Ribbon Girl

The Design papers are from Maja Design and the lace from Live & Love Crafts

Hope you'll join in the challenge - it;s a great excuse for those of you that love fussy & fancy :D

Need to make more of these

I'm sharing with you my inspiration for the new challenge at The ABC Challenge - the theme this time is K is for Kind.  We'd love to see your thank you cards!

We're sponsored by The Ribbon Girl and Lacy Sunshine.

The image I'musing here is Sugi's Strawberries which I've coloured with Copics then cut out with a Spellbinders die.  To frame the image I've used red and black card stock cut with two different Spellbinders dies.

I decided to make a thank you gift bag, first time I've made a gift bag and I definitely need to make more of these.

The design papers are from Lili of the Valley and Maja Design.  I've also used some red card stock

The sentiment is a Lili of the Valley one, coloured with Copics.

Hope you like my inspiration and we hope to see you at the challenge

Z = Zero Embellishments

We have a very different challenge for you today at the ABC Challenge - Z = Zero.  So all of you out there who love CAS cards this is your opportunity to show us your cards with no embellishments!

We're sponsored for this challenge by the lovely Lacy Sunshine and the image I'm using for my inspiration today is Fantail Enchantress.

She's been coloured with ProMarkers, fussy cut and then lots of DecoArt glitter added to her wings and clothes.  As she looks like she's sitting I decided to create her a window looking out onto a garden.

The design papers from Lemoncraft and Lili of the Valley are a hand cut (I've not got dies big enough for these shaped cards).  The circles in the middle of the card were cut using a Spellbinders die.  The edges of the design papers have been distressed with Tim Holtz antique linen ink.

And that's it no embellishments of any sort :D
