Chickie Birthday

Today is a new Cardz 4 Galz Challenge 

the new theme is

'things with wings'

I have used my cute chicks

I stamped my chicks, cake and sentiment and because it is a card for Galz I gave them a pink colour scheme

They are mounted on pink patterned paper, decorated with nuvo drops and I added a glitter glue border

so have a look at Cardz for Galz and make your own 'winged' paper project to enter

Kraft

 Here is the new Cardz 4 Galz challenge

the new theme is

'use kraft'

here is my take

I heat embossed the sentiment, added the lines top and bottom and freehand drew zentangle 'flowers' using a black fine liner pen and a white gel pen

I have drawn similar patterns on black card with a white pen but this is my first time drawing on kraft.  I found it was a bit uneven although this is packaging card perhaps if I bought kraft card it might be smoother but I've never felt the need to buy it

So have a look at Cardz 4 Galz and make your own kraft project to enter

Sparkle

It's time for a new Cardz 4 Galz challenge

the new theme is

'make it sparkle'

here is my take

 

The background is glitter paper

I used stamp and die cut unicorns and a die cut sentiment

I used 3d enamel effect to draw the border, set it to one side to dry and put a paper on top of it 😱!!! nooooooo!!!! so the line is a bit thicker in places than it should be 😆

Butterflies

It's tome for a new Sparkles Monthly Challenge

the theme this month is

'use ribbon, raffia or twine'

I have used twine 

 I made the butterflies and leaf with a new layering die I found in the sales

The background is patterned paper and I made the twine border by simply gluing around the edge and (carefully) laying the twine on top

the sentiment is an old stamp

Lace and Pearls

It's time for a new Cardz 4 Galz challenge

todays theme is

'lace and pearls'

not things I would normally use but here it is

 The lace and pearls are on the side and I have drawn a tangle with a white gel pen 

I think it worked quite well
