CD Sunday Challenge - Art Nouveau

My CD element is the topper which is from MCS Art Nouveau. I mounted it on white card coloured with ink dusters and Antique linen DI. The side panels are stamps from Debbi Moore's Art Nouveau sheet. They were coloured using Derwent Aqua pencils. The card itself was stamped with another stamp from the same collection and this was embossed with Vertigre Opaque ep from Stampendous. I love the colour. The card was then covered with three shades of Versa Magic inks, Sea Breeze, Oasis Green and Aegean Blue in an attempt to match the background to the lady in the topper. I really enjoyed making this card so hope you like it.

Sparkles Forum Christmas Challenge - Christmas Tree

Just bought this stamp from Barbara's Clarity stamp sale so pleased to have an opportunity to use it. My tag is coloured with DIs Pine needles and Aged mahoganey and ink disters. The tree is stamped with pine needles. The ribbon and star are from my stash. It is such an intricate stamp I thought i would keep the background simple.

Crafty Ann's Challenge # 35 - Happy Birthday

I chose Music Collage 3 from Crafty Ann's collection as the card is for a violin player. The colouring was done with Derwent Intense pencils and a water brush and then glazed with Crafty Notions rainbow glazes. The two backing papers are from Funky collection 3. I used the design runner for the additional row of music and the sentiment. The charm is from my stash.

Dragon's Dream TIO # 69 - Fun and Games

Having been away for a week with four male wind surfers the first thing I thought of when I saw the challenge title was boys and their toys. It was a fun week. Unfortunately I don't have a windsurfer stamp, shopping required, but John does have a motor bike and does snowboard hence my tag. Thank you for taking a look, any comments you leave are much appreciated.

CD Sunday Challenge - Get Ahead - Get a Hat

I used a stamp called Sophisticated Lady by Stamp Happen and coloured it with Promarkers. It is my daughter's stamp but I am looking after her stamps for now, so a chance to borrow. My backing paper is from the Artylicous CD Floral Fantasy and it and the topper are matted onto grey card, the flower is from my stash.

Thank you for taking a look, I do appreciate your comments.

Rainbow Lady's Challenge # 141 - Shabby Chic

The challenge over at Rainbow Lady's blog this week is Shabby Chic and it is sponsored by Steph of Crafting. co.uk. I came across this image on Vintage Feedsacks blog and thought it was so right for shabby chic. The papers are double sided from K & Co. so I was able to use three sides here. The broad lace under the band was from my stash and the silk flowers are from HOTP. I used a Martha Stewart punch on the mat and added some pale pink pearls to the mat and centre of the flowers.

Thank you for taking a look and I hope you will join in over at Rainbow Lady's Challenge blog.

Rainbow Lady's Challenge # 140 - Use a CD

My CDs this week are both from Joanna Sheen, the pink background silk from Fashion Boutique and the fur from Jayne Netley Mayhew. The topper and scatter cushion are digis from Amber Inks and they are kindly sponsoring the challenge this week. The chatty lady is coloured using Promarkers and the cushions were printed onto the fur bp. The sentiment is a stamp that I must say I can relate to.
