Colour Challenge #5

Not sure about this one at all. I matched the turquoise to an Iranian turquoise necklace I have. I tried to recreate the effect of the black seams running through the stones. I found this colour combo incredibly hard but thanks Kristy for making me think outside my very small box!

Colour Challenge #3

This is my (very) late entry for my own Colour Challenge. Sadly it's a condolence card for a friend who recently lost her father. The stamps are by http://www.tandastamps.com/acatalog/index.html and Hero Arts

Colour challenge #3

Here's my card for this week's colour challenge. The background is H2Os, colour Persimmon, the stamped images are by Blade Rubber, Paperartsy, Rubadubadoo, and something I got from a little stall at Ally Pally! The blue dragon is made with shrink plastic and coloured with Sakura Glaze pens. This is my first try at doing collage, it was hard work to get a nice placement, I should have just bought a collage stamp!

Wednesday Stamper - Turquoise

This is my effort for this week's Wednesday Stamper. It's a 6 x 6 card.

Details of stamps used, etc., are on my blog

Ice Cream ATC

details of how I made this are here.

Paisley Bird ATC's

I seem to be going through a bit of a Psychedelic Hippy phase at the moment. Not sure what's brought it on, maybe it was some dodgy cheese. :o) I made these two ATC's for a 2:2 swap over at the Tanda Stamps Craft Forum, so naturally the background is made using a couple of the Tanda Stamps Paisley stamps from their Paisley set. For the Background, I used the watercolour Faux Batik technique.

Life is beautiful

and so is my darling Mother.........really super quick Mother's Day card for her.
Central Lily image is by Blue Cardigan (Mothers Day Sheet) stamped on cream card in Black Stazon, then several coats of clear EP over the top. Matted on to an Ecoline (580 & 416) background, and then onto blue vellum and tied round a piece of cream ric rak.
"Life is Beautiful" quote is by Magenta, and this was stamped in versamark on to the same cream cardstock and embossed with Galactic Gold EP. I then coloured it with Majestic Blue (652) H20, cut out and then edged with Violet Versacolour ink.
The card blank was stamped with Savvy Dahlia (449c) in a mixture of Violet Versacolour and Azurite chalk ink.
