And my final entry for Simon Says Autumn Challenge.  Also participating in Simon Says Work It Wednesday.

Supplies used:
W-Plus 9 stamp, Concord and 9th dies, Gansai Tambi watercolors.

I'm also participating in Simon Says Anything Goes Challenge.


Thank You

My second entry for Simon Says Autumn Challenge and HLS Mixed Media Nature Challenge.  For this card I wanted to make a leaf card with big leaf images which I don't have so I used artificial leaves and traced around them.

Here is the planning process ......


And here is my card .......


I colored the leaves with Derwent Ink Pencils and then added Distress Inks and Stains.  I added a touch of foil to the veins of the leaves but it's not clear in the photo.

I'm also participating in Simon Says Anything Goes Challenge.



Mixed Media "Autumn"

Hello!


I have a few projects to share today.  I love Autumn colors and was so inspired by the Simon Says Autumn Challenge  and HLS Mixed Media Nature Challenge I ended up making 3 cards (and I have another two backgrounds .... )  I hadn't planned on making so many cards but whilst waiting for each step to dry I wasn't quite satisfied with the progress and started something new ..... and with each step the projects veered off in different directions.  Gotta love crafting..... 


Here is my first project:


I used a number of dies, Distress Inks, Paints and Stains, Texture Paste and gel medium.  Love the metal tag "embrace imperfection".  

I'm also participating in Simon Says Anything Goes Challenge.

Happy Birthday Doodles

Hi there!

I have two fun cards to share with you today.  The challenge at A Blog Named Hero is geometric and as I love to doodle I thought I'd incorporate some 'doodling' on my card.  


And here is the second card.... just for fun!


All the stamps are Hero Arts (Zig Zag, Happy Stamp & Cut, Fancy Basics).

I'll also be playing in the A2Z Scrapbooking Layer Challenge.



Have a wonderful week-end x

You ARE enough

CAS-ual Fridays Fight Like A Girl Challenge, Simon Says Think Pink Challenge and October Breast Cancer awareness was the inspiration behind this card.


I used Distress Inks to watercolor and at first I was too precise so I added loads of water to create more of a random look which I wanted.  It's not always easy to color outside the lines ;)

The stamp set is Concord and 9th You Are Enough.  Love that phrase.  

Thanks for stopping by, have a good week and remember.... you ARE enough!

 Hugs, Zelda x
