Wedding Season

June is wedding season and we have a wedding card challenge at Eclectic Ellapu this month.  I have used a digital stamp from Kenny K Downloads for my card.  I love the happy faces of the bride and groom dancing.  

I coloured my card with my Copics and glitter pen, die cut my wedding flowers, added pearls and layered them on several different papers   I also added some ribbon, a ring charm and a butterfly to complete the card. 

Eclectic Ellapu also has a second challenge this month and the theme is midsummer.  Please check out our challenge blog for more details on the challenge and to view the other cards that the design team member have created inspire you. 

Thank you for stopping by. 

Shades of Green

It is a shades of green challenge at Incy Wincy challenges this week and I have used an image from Kenny K Downloads called  Cool Trucker for my card.  

I have used this image a few times for birthday cards for the males in my family.  I coloured the image with my Copics, added some die cut gears and a sentiment from my stash of unmounted rubber stamps. 

Hope you will join our shades of green challenge this week. Thank you for stopping by and have a creative day.  

Let the Music Begin

 This is my first project for this month's challenge at Forever Dark.  

Kenny K Downloads is the sponsor of this challenge and I used their image called Madame Axe. 

This is the front of my tri-fold card

This is partly open. The front and inside paper was made with acrylic paint, inks and my gelli plate. 

This is a closer look at the fabulous image.  I used a rubber stamp from my stash of unmounted stamps for the background of the centre of the card. 

I used baker twine, die cut stars and music to complete my card.

North Pole - Anything but a Card

 

Cindy has a great challenge this week at Holly Jolly Christmas Challenges, anything but a card.  I love these challenges because they allow you to use your imagination and make things like Christmas gifts and ornaments.  

I made this Christmas scene out of an old ornament bx which I spray painted white and added tea lights in the back so I could light up the scene. I trimmed the box with gold pattern paper.

The Santa and sleigh are digital stamps from Kenny K downloads that I coloured with Copic markers.    I added cotton balls for the snow and two die cut snowflake chains with bling to the bottom of the scene to add some sparkle. 

Hope you have enjoyed my creation this week.  Pop over to the Holly Jolly blog to see the inspirational ideas of the rest of the Holly Jolly design team elves.  Hope you will play along with us this week.

Route 66

My Sherri Crafts challenge this week has the theme of  "Lets Take a Trip" .  Great summer time theme. When I saw the them of the challenge I thought of the Kenny K. digital image I had in my collection.  Thought it would make a good image for this challenge.  

I had this pack of travel papers in my stash that were perfect for this card. The Route 66 sign is a free digital from Vintage Printables. I coloured my image with my Copic Markers and added a few sentiments to complete my card. 

Thank you for stopping by.  Have a creative day.

Thats All ......Miss You

I had to make a card for a friend that was leaving her work place and we decided on this image from Kenny K Downloads for the card.  The friend wears a hat often that resembles the one on the digital stamp along with her blue jeans.   She is definitely not a flowery card kind of gal and Kenny K  images are kind of fun.  Hope she enjoys the card.

Time to Read

My Sheri Crafts this week has an interesting challenge called "Read Across America".  I am still playing snowbird in Arizona so I had to really put my thinking cap on to make a card for this challenge.  

I searched my stash of odds and ends that I had brought with me for this trip and came across some pattern paper that had definitions of words on it and I also came across a calendar, some small scrapbook letters and a Big News scrap I had used part of for another collage.

I had this girl reading digital image from Kenny K. in my stash. I thought my findings would make an interesting card.  Under the special event column of the calendar I added the words "reading week" with the small scrapbook letters.  I then began arranging my collage. To have my pieces tie into each other I coloured them with Distress Inks and outlining some with a blue pen. The digital image was coloured with Copic Markers.  To complete my card I added a few brads and some bling. 

Thank you for stopping by and have a creative week.

I had fun creating this card for this step card challenge at Holly Jolly Christmas Challenges this week.  Great challenge choice Cindy.

Hope you will come and join us this week at Holly Jolly and have a creative week.

Biker Girl

I was asked by my son to make a birthday card for a friend that was turning 50 who loves motorcycles.  I immediately thought of the digi images from Kenny K Downloads.  There were several different digis to chose from and this was the image that we finally decided on.  The red embossing folder background was rubbed with metallic rub-ons to give the card some sparkle. I then added a 50 that I glittered, button and a couple of stars to complete the birthday card.  I hope she likes it.  Thanks for stopping by and taking a look.

It is all about Texture - Kenny K Downloads Challenge

Kenny K. Download challenges (#72) this week all about texture. I chose to use this reindeer digi stamp of Kenny’s for a Christmas card for my oldest grandson. Thought he would like the non traditional Christmas card design. To add texture after colouring with my Copics I added glitter, textured ribbons, and a couple of bells. I then added diamond glaze to the sunglasses and the reindeers red nose to add some shine to the card. The “Be Merry” sentiment is by A Muse Artstamps. Do you think he will enjoy the card?

Now back to my craft room to complete my Christmas cards.

Have a creative day.

Cute Card Thursday – Challenge 193 - Its just a number

Santa is coming! Santa is coming! When? December 25th. This cute digi image is by Kenny K. Downloads. I searched my stash and found some interesting papers and got out my Copics, snow writer and glitter pens to create this card. Think I will send it to my grandson, River who will be 3 in January. Christmas will be exciting for him this year.

Well back to my craft room and more Christmas cards.

Birthday Party Time

This card tonight I made for my son’s birthday. I find it so hard to find images for a male’s theme card. One of the best sites to go to for me is Kenny K. Downloads. He has a great collection of images for a male card.

I particularly like this digi called "Party Time" paired with this funky styled black, white and gray paper. I coloured the image it with my Copics and added Diamond Glaze to give the watch and the sunglasses depth. To finish the card I added stars trimmed with my gold pen to give them depth, button, twine and two sentiment stamps by A Muse Artstamps.

My son says he checks my blog once in a while. I wonder if he will notice his card.

Thanks for stopping by.
