Say ....

A simple card made on a 4 x 4 inch brown Kraft card base ....

I cut a white matt and stamped the fairy (Lindsey Mason)  in black Versafine ink which was then heat embossed with clear embossing powder. This was matted on black and pale lilac cards to frame.

The flower was painted in Watercolours on watercolour card, dried and trimmed out. The wildflower stalk (Tim Holtz - Sizzix) was die-cut from black card.

The base matt was applied to the card and the die-cut added and this was overlaid with the flower on foam pads. The sentiment was stamped in black Versafine ink, trimmed and matted on more black card. This was added on more foam pads as shown with a small amount of Stickles glitter glue to highlight ....... to finish .....

Tree .....

Made a small card ....

The card base is white card cut to 4 x 4 inches. I then made a base from watercolour card and lot's of water and paints, allowing it to dry. It was then matted on mid brown card.

The tree was then die-cut from more coloured watercolour paper.

The sentiment was stamped in black Versafine ink, die-cut and matted on more of the mid-brown card.

The matted background was stuck onto the card front and the tree added over this. The sentiment was added on foam pads to finish.

Simple but effective ......

Grown .....

Made a tag for a swap over on UK Stampers Forum ....

The base is re-cycled food packaging and it is covered in a Gelli print made with acrylic paints and stencils. I have then used a numbers stamp (Aall & Create) along with coffee Archival ink to add some background detail. I have also added some white and black accents and lines with white and black Posca pens.

The die-cut flowers (Tim Holtz) were added onto the tag and it was edged with white Gesso.

I then added a shrink plastic butterfly and the words were stamped and added as shown. I finished the tag with a lime green gros-grain ribbon .....

Dogs ......

Made these ATC's for a swap .......

I cut the bases from re-cycled food packaging to 2.5 x 3.5 inches. I then chose some text printed paper from Crafty Individuals as the background and cut three pieces.

I then used a crackle stamp (Crafty Individuals) and over stamped the text paper with three different colours of Archival Ink knocking back with white Gesso. Over this I stamped a ledger stamp in sepia Archival in and added a postmark and hearts (Crafty Individuals) in black & red Archival Inks.

I then chose some fun dogs stamps (Crafty Individuals) and stamped these in Versafine black ink on white card which was then heat embossed with clear embossing powder. The images were trimmed out  and coloured with grey Distress ink washes. The medals were coloured maroon with Acrylograph pen and some glossy accents were added to the dogs eyes.

I then added some torn Washi tape to ground the dogs and applied then on foam pads, edging with a shadow with Inktense pencil and a waterbrush.

I then added some random self adhesive numbers and a word matted on black card.

I edged the ATC's with black Posca pen in a dash pattern to finish ......

This swap was run by Crafty Individuals ..... hence the use of their fab materials .....

I would also like to enter these into the Country View Crafts Challenge this month whose subject is 'Cats & Dogs'.
