Sarah Kay - Week 6

This week over on the Sarah Kay Challenge Blog is a sketch. I really enjoyed making this card and feel like I'm getting back into making cards again.

I dusted off my Craft Robo and used it to cut out my scalloped oval and also the large scalloped rectangle. The papers I used are from DCWV and the blue flower is a Bazzil Bling with a small prima on top. I stamped my image using black stazon and coloured most of the image with prismacolour pencils and the the flowers I water-coloured using sakura gel glitter pens. I then used some distress inks to do the grass and sky.

Sarah Kay Challenge - Week 5

This is another first for me - first time of joining in the Sarah Kay blog challenge. This weeks challenge is to use 3 buttons and 3 jewels on your card.

I used an A5 card blank and covered the front with some K & Co scrapbook paper. I coloured in my Sarah Kay image with my prismacolour pencils and added 3 blue gems/jewels. I matted the image onto different shades of blue card and then mounted it onto my card. I stamped three Stitchels flowers onto pearlescent card using blue ink and then cut them out. I put white buttons in the centres of the blue flowers and a light blue button in the centre of the white flower. I added some ribbon across the lower half of the card and then placed the cut out flowers onto my card using foam pads.
