Lunagirl's Bathing Beauties Challenge

A little color-blocking was done on this card showing one of the bathing beauties found on the Lunagirl Moonbeams site.  Lunagirl is having a Vintage Seashore and Bathing Beauties challenge.  The Design Team would love to see what you create, so hop over there and enter.

Color-Blocking Background

This card is one I made recently for Gecko Galz.  It has a subtle color-blocking background,  This is one of the beautiful images Gecko Galz carries in their extensive inventory.  I hope you will drop by to see all the creations of the new Design Team.  They will be post July 1.

Guest Designer Challenge

This is the second week for posting an entry to be a guest designer on my blog for two weeks.  Your entry must contain three designer papers / cardstock.  For a shortcut to the challenge look at the top of my sidebar and click on the challenge theme.

Here are some inspirational pieces from the Design Team.

I let my three designer papers act as color blocking with a lovely Gecko Galz image.

My 5 x 7 card is based on the sketch given for the current Nightshift stamping challenge, using three offcuts of Hunkydory patterned card which were just right for the sketch. I stamped the DeNami glamour dress with stazon black - I used stazon as the card is shiny ... and then realised I wouldn't be able to use any alcohol pens, so I lightly coloured the dress with a colouring pencil and added some tiny gems for the necklace. I found other bits and pieces in my stash that were just right for the sketch, although I did add another Hobbycraft flower.

For the second week of our “Use Three Different Papers”, I chose a paper from Arthéa. She is a French Designer and hers is the one with the flowers. I also used a pink paper from Captivated Visions. It is lovely. And the green one is from Crafty Button Designs. The sentiment is from Toke e Crie as well as the paper used  on the top and at the bottom of my card. Toke e Crie is from Brazil. Keep on playing along with us and be our guest designer. Have a magical week beautiful people!
 

I made a tag to celebrate Easter. So Happy Easter everybody

Asimple little tag card made with three different papers (Authentique, K&Company and My Minds Eye) and a wooden button. The sentiment from Ludiec is stamped with Archival ink.

 Wishing you all a very Happy Easter time!

I love this challenge of using 3 different papers!  It is fin picking out the papers and deciding how to make a cool background with them. In addition to my pretty coordinating papers I have a vintage image by Lunagirl, flowers, washi tape and a sticker sentiment.  I look forward to seeing which of you wonderful artists will be randomly selected to be our guest designer after this challe

For Week 2 of the use 3 patterned papers on your project I tried a sunburst card, it wasn't too difficult but it was messy. I made it from scraps in my scrap box, evertying but the base was a scrap. The sentiment and decorative lable and punches are all from stampin'up as well as the border of embossed hearts. I thought they were dots until I put my glasses on.  I really liked making this and hope to try more.

New Challenge at Lunagirl

Lunagirl Moonbeams are ending the old year and starting the new year with a great challenge.  It is "Winter".  I have made a birthday card for a friend who has a birthday Jan 1.  The base of the card is embossed with snowflakes and I used some dies to cut some snowflakes to put under the wonderful winter image from Lunagirl.

I also made another card with a digital from Lunagirl, but this time it is from one of  Lunagirl's CD.  The images on this CD are beautiful and there are so many on it that I had a hard time picking an image to use.  I did a little color block behind the image and added strips of ribbon and some very old snowflakes.
