Craft A Scene - Week 5 - Include A Four Legged Animal.

As August is a five Sunday month it means that you still have another week where you can join in with the challenge over on the Craft a Scene blog. We are still asking for your scenes to include a four legged animal. This is my card for this week made with stamps from Joanna Sheen's Jayne Netley Mayhew collection, the grasses are from Inkylicious and I can't remember what set the Warmest Wishes comes from. I do hope that you have time to pop over to the challenge blog and see the inspiration the DT has made for you.

Craft A Scene - Week 3 - Include A Four Legged Animal

Were onto week 3 over on the Craft A Scene blog, and we're still asking to see you scenes with a four legged animal. For my card this week I've used mostly stamps from Stampscapes, the moose is from Stampin Up. I started by stamping the boulders and the moose, masking them off then adding the trees and grasses. With brushes I added the colour to the sky and to the ground, I then coloured the trees and grasses with a piece of cut and dry foam. The moose was coloured with pencils, and the boulder promarkers. Finally I finished by adding the walker and dog, the birds in the sky and the sentiment which is also from stampin up. I hope that you can take the time to pop over to the blog and take a look at the cards the DT have made for your inspiration.

50th Birthday Card

I can't believe how fast the last week has gone, we've been back from our Holiday for a week now and I'm only just finding time to post this card that I made at the beginning of the week. It's for hubby's cousin who turns 50 at the beginning of next week. I know I'm safe posting this as she does not visit my blog. I have several of the Julie Nutting doll stamps and decided it was about time I used them, so this is the first. The background was made using Dylusion sprays but I can't remember which ones, as they were made before we went away (I say they as I made quite a few background in different colours) I popped this onto an A5 black card base after adding a piece of black ribbon around the bottom. I stamped the doll and then coloured her using spectrum noir pencils then cut her out. I stuck her onto the card with glue gel. The flowers were some white ones that I had in my stash that I sprayed with Crafters Companion silver spray and sparkle. The large Happy Birthday die is from Tonic, the 50 Today from Rob Addams dies and the leaves are from Crealies.

Craft A Scene - Include A 4 Legged Animal

Time for another new challenge over on the Craft a Scene blog, and this month we're asking that you make your scenes and include a four legged animal in the scene. This can be any animal as long as it has four legs. For my card this week I've used a 6x6 blue base cards and then stamped my scene onto white card which has been coloured using a mixture of distress inks and promarkers. The stamps that I've used are from Joanna Sheen's Jayne Netley Mayhew collection (I think these maybe now be discontinued), with the exception of the grasses which are from Inkylicious. I do hope that you will all take the time to pop over to the blog and take a look at the wonderful cards the DT have made for your inspiration this month, and why not even take part in the challenge.



This post is a scheduled one as I shall be somewhere in the Baltic sea when it goes live.  Thanks for taking the time to look and your kind comments which are always appreciated.
