This week I’ve used my favourite paper Smooches set of all time – Calorie Free.  I love the images in this set and particularly like the sushi one!  I was recently lucky enough to receive a GORGEOUS bouquet of flowers which were tied with a raffia bow.  I thought I could turn some of the raffia into a little sushi rolling mat so laid down some double sided tape and added strips  to it.  When I had enough down I trimmed down the side and added some black twine to finish it off.  For the sentiment (Japanese for Thank You I believe) I used Lawn Fawn’s Milo’s ABC’s.

Tie it Up

So now it’s YOUR turn, Happy Crafting

Howdy!  I am so in love with how the colours  turned out for this card!  The zingy yellows and oranges in the the Kuretake Gansai water colour paints and the Clean Colour markers are so vibrant they almost make my eyes water!!  I created my watercolour background panel using the Kuretake paints on Tim Holtz cardstock.  Whilst that was drying I used the Pretty Pink Posh duo die to cut a tag but I only wanted the centre part (so it would look a bit like a trellis) so I just trimmed it down.  I stamped the butterflies from the Lawn Fawn Flutter By set in Versamark and then heat embossed it in white and finally coloured them with my Zig Clean Colour markers (what a sheer JOY they are!!).  I then just assembled the card placing some silver thread behind the frame, a few sequins dotted around and stamped the sentiment in a bold black to complete the card!

Sparkle and Shine

I am IN LOVE with Lawn Fawn products so am so happy that the DT are featuring them this week.  One of the newest additions to my LF collection is So Jelly – I just love this set!  I thought it would pair very nicely with the Fish and Bowl dies from Simon Says Stamp so although this is a teeny little card, it’s as cute as a button!!

I coloured the jellies with Copics and used distress ink to blend a simple background.  I needed a short little sentiment to fit to decided to use the Milo’s ABC’s set to customise the card with the word Jello (as opposed to Hello – geddit??!!)!

get in shape

 

Can’t wait to see all the shaped cards this week!

So now it’s YOUR turn, Happy Crafting
