Saturday Stamper - DPOV

Here's another New Challenge Blog, for me that is. Saturday Stampers DPOV- “different point of view”, we need to do two or more creations using the same stamp, to see how different we can all use our stamps. That's the Challenge.
'
My First Card I used Artylicious Butterfly Bliss Papers. I stamped the largest of the "Just Butterflies Unmounted Rubber Stamp Themeplate", onto Card and Vellum, embossed both of them using JudiKins Lapis Lazul Embossing Powder, and then painted them using Twinkling H2O's. I cut a piece of Chipboard and painted that aswell.

For this Second one I once again used Artylicious Butterfly Bliss Papers and stamped the same Butterfly onto White Card using Pearlescent Lavender Brilliance Ink. I cut it out and Glued down flat onto the Finished Base Card.

Sketch This: Cards

Well I did it! I ummed and ahhed about it for a week then finally decided at the last minute to do it. So now it's done. These are the two cards that I've sent in as an application for the Sketch This: Cards Design Team. I'm not really expecting much to come of it as there are some really good designers out there and it's my first time of doing anything like this. If you don't try you'll never know, so I've tried.

This first card was made using Artylicious Damask Delights Papers, a flower I had in my Bit's Box, a large Brad, some edging and a Rub-On.

This second card was made using Eline's Babies Bath & Bedtime Kit from Daisy Company.

Good Luck to All who have applied.

Arty Girlz Challenge #2

Arty Girlz is a new Challenge Blog that started last week, and this week's Challenge is Flowers.
'
My initial plan for this was to do some stamping. It seems like ages since I last did any, but I couldn't decide which Stamp to use. Finally decided on a stamp and had to come up with some background papers. I've been looking for an excuse to use my Artylicious Fantasy Floral CD by Glenda Waterworth, but somehow my stamp didn't quite go with the papers I had chosen. So I started all over again and didn't do stamping after all but did stick to Artylicious.


I printed 2 Background Papers, 1 Green and 1 Purple, cut them down to size keeping the whole flower image as the center piece. Then printed another Background Paper onto Card Stock, this time Lilac. Cut out 2 whole flowers each size and a center each, then decoupaged onto the Green Center Piece, I used Sakura Glaze Pens for the Leaf outline and center of the flowers. I also used some Silver peel-offs to finish off and added a Sentiment and Glittered the words "With Love".
