Selfie Animals

Good morning crafters

Today is a new Cardz 4 Galz Challenge

The challenge today is

feature the word 'hello' somewhere

so here is my take
Cute animal selfies
I used a die cut set which has the frame and the words which you cut out of the frame
So I found three animal stamps which would fill the frame and stamped, coloured and cut to fit
They were arranged on pink card
The flowers and leaves were leftovers from another project and I die cut extra hash tags to decorate

so head over to Cardz 4 Galz and enter your own card

see you there

Fishes

 Hi again

 Today I am under the sea

 I heat embossed the fish and coloured blue ink over the top

They were die cut using a big heart and I painted watered down white paint inside the fishes 

When dry they were coloured using dark blue and pale purple from Just add ink challenges and blended together

Here they are up close

I am not sure if the colours are still ok to go into the challenge as they have come out purple but I will try anyway

Holiday Snaps

 I have some exciting news 

I have been invited to join the design team at Sparkles Monthly

so on the 15th of each month I will have a lovely new card to show you

 the theme this month is

'use at least three patterned papers'

 here is my take

 I made the photos using die cuts and stamps which were coloured

The patterned papers were cut into squares and all were assembled onto a green background

I added some washi tape (the one at the top says 'welcome to paradise' but it doesn't show up in the photo)

I also die cut some sunglasses to scatter around

So have a look at Sparkles Monthly Challenge

and make your own card to enter

see you there

I am also linking this card with

AAA Birthday 

 

 I used bright, washi and patterned paper

although my card doesn't say 'birthday' it is intended to be used as such
