End of Summer Time by Julie Lavalette

3:30 AM 4 Comments

Hi Everyone, it's Julie here today. Can you believe we are at the end of August already. In Scotland the nights are starting to get darker earlier in the evening and my beloved little Robin has re-appeared back in my garden. All signs summer time is about to end and the clocks will go back soon and winter will be upon us. So this is where my inspiration for this weeks card came from.

My card is 8x8 in size and fits the Mega Doily Die perfectly. With this die cut I used patterned paper, dry brushed on some Gesso and inked the edges to give a shabby feel. My Clock, Victorian flourishes and corner dies were cut out in a lilac shade of paper. I stamped a crackle stamp onto the clock and corners and then inked the edges on all these die parts and once again dry brushed some Gesso on.


I added some glitter glue onto my clock face and little diamantés.


My flowers all started off as white cardstock. They were cut out and I added different shades of ink, a little stamping onto the Shasta Daisy for texture and a little flower soft into the centres. My leaves were cut from green card stock and the edges inked.


My butterflies were cut out in pink patterned paper and I used the angel wing to cut out the back of the butterflies in white cardstock, again inking the edges.

Cheery Lynn Dies used-
Thanks for stopping by today and for your continued comments and likes on Facebook, I really appreciate it. 
Good Luck to everyone entering our Weekly Challenge.

See you all next Saturday,

A CHEERFUL CARD WITH ANITA KEJRIWAL

3:30 AM 6 Comments
Hello friends,
I ,m back again with my weekly Wednesday project. And this week I have a totally different project for you....something that is not my style but I am so much in awe of these cards that I could not save myself from making one. This project does not have handmade flowers. Here the focus is mainly on the clever use of die cuts. Here I have manipulated the die cuts to give a different look to this card. And the base is the favourite stacker dies one top of other to give a 3d look. I have cut the Fiona's magic mirror to place it on the top and bottom. The two flourishes are place on either side and I have again cut the doily into two and used as a mat for the stamped image.
