Anything with flowers.......

The through the purple haze second challenge was anything with flowers,  so I have used some images from my house mouse decoupage sheets and a sheet printed from a one of my Joanna sheen cd's.

For this one I used a lilac card and matted purple mirri board on to it.

I then cut out  the decoupage sheet and matted  on to a sheet of green gingham paper.

To finish I used coloured some silver leaves with a green pro-marker, then added two paper white flowers and added two small purple buttons in the middle of the flowers.

A sentiment was then added to the top left hand corner

Like the above card I started with a lilac card blank.  I then printed out the decoupage sheet and a backing sheet from a Joanna sheen cd.

I wrapped a piece of piece of lilac organza ribbon, and a small piece of lilac ribbon around the backing paper and attached to the front of the card.  

I then made up the decoupage and stuck to left hand side of the card.

and then finished off with a vertical happy birthday peel off

First challenge cards ... Indigo Blu

Here are cards the first challenge cards I have ever made:

 

 

I had 3 stamps to use a bird , leaves and a sentiment

 

For the first one i took a piece of Kraft card

stamped the leaves randomly (in black) on the front

I then stamped two on a piece of green patterned paper and cut them out. 

Two mats where then cut (using a spellbinders die)

the bigger one in brown and the smaller in white. 

The sentiment was stamped on to the white one

and ink around the edges using distress ink

A strip of ribbon was put done the middle,

en the sentiment added, and finally the leaves.

   

The second card is a a5 whte card,

I coloured with the same distress ink

The leaves were done the same way as the card above,

 as too were the mats, but this time i added a gold layer

and stamped the bird in the middle
