Hummingbird Summery days Blog Challenge entry

Hi and welcome to my latest meljen designs blog entry. This week we were set the challenge of making a card with a "fancy font" theme.

Using Melissa's Hummingbird digi I have used lime greens and antique pink as the colour scheme.

I used a Great Impressions Rubber stamp of "Happy summer Days" sentiment as my fancy font.

I hope they like my entry

Meljen Designs Blog Challenge " Frames"

Here is my blog entry for the meljensdesignsdt.blogspot.co.uk challenge this week which was incorporate a frame into our cards whilst using one of her fab designs.

I have used the Scuba Bear image which inspired me to make a fish tank themed frame picture using other fishy stamps to embellish the card.

I have coloured all the images with a mixture of copics and promarker pens. Really pleased with the finished card and used various shades of blue buttons to act as bubbles to finish it off.

I hope they like it

New baby Card

I decided to make a gate fold card for this order, haven't made one for ages. I used first edition paper pads for the patterned pieces and Stampin Up pale blue card stock for layering.

The Teddy was a digi decoupage image I bought many years ago. 

Inside again I used a sheet from the First Edition Paper pads  and then added the SU card die cut and stamped the sentiment.

Simple but effective looking card.

Wedding cards Using Dreamees rubber stamps

At one of the papercrafting shows at the national motorcycle museum last year I purchased this little corker of a bride & groom stamp. I have used it quite a few times now but recently popped this creation together to show a florist who wanted to stock my cards in their shop.
I have used promarkers to colour the image in. I then used various die cut shapes in various papers. All finished with a woodware ribbon.
Pop by and say hi to Dreamees over @  Dreamees Stamps & Cd's also they have a facebook page too.

Mo Manning Card Creations

I recently found the amazing Mo Manning digital images ( Mo's Digital Pencil ) whilst having a look around facebook, They are truely amazing and the detailing is brilliant.

I bought quite a few images and have even been back and bought more so I can take part in their blog challange this week.

Now the cards below are ones I have made using the first set I bought. I have had great fun colouring them

Irish Dancer

I decided to try lots of different colour combinations and layouts so here is another version

I use a mixture of Promarkers and Copics to colour my images

I make a lot of Wedding themed cards and when I saw this next image I just had to get it and made this card up to show everyone.

I designed an A5 sized easel card and used a turquoise colour scheme. I added paper flowers, pearls and a simple sentiment to finish it off.

I will be buying some more of these images in the future and certainly taking part in their blog challanges every week.

Papermania Creations

I have dug out my Papermania craft stash today.
First card that I made this morning I used the emerald 12"x12" paper stack to make this green gardening themed easel shaped card.

Also on the card is the papermania glitter textured papers, gardening themed topper and sentiment.
I have used a Stampin up green card layer and used Xcut dies to cut the shaped panels.

All finished with 2 different tones of ribbon, paper flowers, brads and pearl roses.

The second card that I made, used a Papermania vintage postcard die cut topper which came in a pack of 4 and also the buttons are from the massive bag of vintage themed buttons pack.

The Green leaves paper is from Stampin Up, The gold ribbon is from meiflower and the beautiful paper is script and flowers on is from Pion designs.

I have finished the card with paper flowers, leaves and brads.

The wording was stamped using individual stamps and a Woodware stamp set "Jane's Script".
