A Simple Thank You

I have the honour today of being a guest designer at The Crazy Challenge.  Their theme for the next two weeks is to give thanks.

I decided to make a simple thank you card using a purple and green theme.  the image you can see here is from SheepSki Designs called Freesia Vase and you can get these with 10% off by quoting code SKIANDREA10 on Etsy

 

The image has been coloured with ProMarkers and polychromos pencils.  The image has been cut out with a Spellbinders die and frames with black card stock.

I've only used black card stock and one design paper from Craft & You.

Embellishments are a wood chip Thank You sentiment, some silver dragonfly charms and some purple pearl gems

Lily reflections

I've been honoured this month by being asked to join The  Crazy Challenge as a guest designer.

The theme they have for this first one I'm taking part in is Watercolour.  So I decided I needed to get the old water colour pencils out and get to work.  As well as being done in water colours I decided to do some water and had a go at doing some reflections :)

I tried a new technique when I was doing this which didn't work out too well.  I masked the image with some masking fluid.  Unfortunately when I'd finished the back ground and removed the masking fluid it pulled off most of the image so I had to kind of make it up as I went along.

Anyway..... The image I've used is from Make It Crafty called Lotus Bloom bit they do look rather like lily pads we have here in the UK.

The watercolour pencils I used were Faber Castelle.

Once I'd finished and dried the image I mounted it onto some plain black card stock and added some black self adhesive gems.

So that's it for my inspiration - pop over to the main Crazy Challenge blog to enter
