Well I have recently come across another card blog challenge that I thought I would enter. Check out the Case Study Challenge #3. Each month there is a muse who provides inspiration for us to create a card or project of our own. This month’s muse is Maki Jones….my, she is one talented lady!!

Anyway this is Maki Jones’ inspiration card.

This is my first attempt at using a digi stamp. I found this cute little bear called Coco at the Digistamp Boutique. I coloured him in with Derwent pencils and Gamsol. To make the flowers shine, I used Glossy Accents.

Supplies: Regal Craft white textured card, K@Company patterned paper -Life’s Journey Pansy, Bazzill cardstock, white cardstock, Derwent pencils, Gamsol, Glossy Accents, Kaisercraft flowers, Kaisercraft pearl embellishments, Kaisercraft “thanks a bunch” rub on, Versacolor ink – umber, sponge dauber, foam dots.

Have a great day and thanks for looking.

Scrapbook Boutique August Colour Challenge #1

Here is my entry to the Scrapbook Boutique’s very first challenge – a colour challenge using the colours blue and yellow. Check out the competition here. It is a first for both of us actually as this is my first entry into a card competition as well :-).


Supplies: White cardstock, Hero Arts Blossoms Cling stamp set, Versa Colour Inks (Atlantic, Sky Blue and White), Bazzill Cardstock (dark blue), Copic markers, 3D foam dots, yellow ribbon, thick cardboard brackets (inked white), Pearl embellishments, Tuxedo Black Memento Ink (for flower and leaves), Kaisercraft “Friend” rubon.

I had fun making my own background with the two different shades of blue and the stamen stamp from the set and also making the flower have several dimensions (3 layers here).

Hope you like it!
