Joy Tunnel Card

 Hi Crafters

 I have been making tunnel cards


 This was designed on my cricut machine I cut the 'joy' over the circle and had it write the sentiment and draw the stars

Behind the joy I added blue sparkle paper  and I used washi tape along the edge

Here is the outside


I die cut the tag, stamped the sentiment, added washi tape and glued on a bow that I dipped the ends into gold glitter

I am linking this card with

Love Hearts

 Good morning

 it's time for another challenge at Cardz 4 Galz

todays theme is

'one layer card'

here is my take

 This was made by using a stencil and pink and purple distress inks which I used an ombre colouring

The sentiment is stamped using the same two inks and I decided to make my life more difficult and ombring  while colouring it as well.  I am actually glad thet I did because it came out nicely

So have a look at Cardz 4 Galz and make your own one layer card to enter

see you there

Cheeky Cactus

Good morning crafters

It's the 15th so it's Sparkles Monthly Time

The theme this month is

'shaped cards'

anything that is not a square or a rectangle

here is my take


 I made him using My Scrap Chick files 'cactus garden' and the 'bee booty box' 
 using cricut design space and my cricut machine

I took one cactus piece, removed the score line and enlarged it then made a flower

The face is from the bee (minus the nose)

I made up the flower pot and sentiment

and assembled

So make your own shaped card and link it with Sparkles Monthly Challenges

 see you there

Pink Bows

 Good morning 

it's time for another Cardz 4 Galz challenge

the theme today is

'buttons and/or bows'

I don't do buttons so I am team bows all the way

here is my take

 I have made the backgroud with various bow stamps and distress ink in pink and purple

The middle border is made with a wave die cutter

I made up the bow myself although the ends were die cut

The sentiment is heat embossed in purple

So head over to Cardz 4 Galz Challenge

 and link up your own cardz

 see you there

Car Card

 Hi fellow crafters
 
 I have made a man card today
 

I made the panel by colouring some paper with ink, when it had dried I stamped the cars and trimmed it so the pattern goes off the edge which is a look that I like
The border was made with an alcohol marker as I don't have brown card
The sentiment is stamped

Christmas Gnome

 Hello fellow crafters

 I bought a gnome stamp set ages ago and still hadn't used it so when I saw a tic tac toe challenge that had 'gnome' in it I decided it was time



The gnome was stamped, coloured and die cut with a circle and another in red, slightly bigger

The background ia washi tape stuck on in stripes

I am linking this card with

I made the outer frame by die cutting a large window

and assembled
