Happy Birthday Allsorts

I am loving these fantastic stamps from Pink Ink, so when looking what to make for The Allsorts Birthday Challenge this week I found myself reaching for the beautiful Giraffe Stamp. I started with a card blank and a piece is white card. I sprayed the white card with a combination of yellow, green and orange distress oxide sprays and then when dry I over stamped the images. Then I used Spectrum Noir pens to colour in the giraffe, while the leaves had been stamped with green ink. I then cut a Happy Birthday sentiment using a Paper Boutique die. All that left to do is to stick it to the card base and say Happy 10th Birthday Allsorts, may you have many more.

Mothers Day

I'm back with a card today that I've made for my Mum for Mother's Day. I used the Burst Of Spring collection from Heartfelt Creations for the card, the pansies from this collection are gorgeous. I used ink pads and dabbers to colour the pansies and added some matching stickles to the centres.  The sentiment die used is from The Paper Boutique. The challenge over at My Time To Craft is Mothers Day/For A Female so I'm going to join in this week.

Banana And Bluebell

Banana and Bluebell these are just two of the things on the butterfly wheel this spin. So I've made this card to enter into the Butterfly Challenge this week. There are seven things on the wheel altogether, Bi-fold, Bluebell, Banana, Burgundy, Buttons, Bows and Butterfly. I've used a Bluebell coloured base card along with Banana for the matting. Bluebell and Banana are colour on the backing papers which are from issue 28 of the Tattered Lace magazine, it you look closely at the top backing paper there are little blue butterflies all over it. I added some buttons from my stash and some die cut butterflies using the same card as the matting. The die cut sentiment is from Paper Boutique.

Dreams

Well I don't know where this week disappeared too, I can't believe that it's Saturday already. My card today is for the Butterfly Challenge which this time around is the letter K with the colours being Kobe, Kobi and Kelly Green along with Kraft Card, Kite and Knot it. My colour (which has all come from the scrap box) is Kobe and Kelly Green along with Knot it. I ordered the beautiful new dies that The Paper Boutique bought out recently, which this time was all about butterflies. So it would have been rude not to have tried one out for the challenge. I have also used a sentiment from Crafters Companion and added a knot in ribbon to match the colour.
