You are Fabulous and Gorjuss!!!

Here's a little card I have over at Quixotic today,

I have been eager to colour this cutie Gorjuss - Ruby - Rubber Stamp and had such fun! I masked her to very lightly spray the sky. The colours are inspired from these gorgeous My Mind's Eye - 6x6 Paper Pad - Stella & Rose - Mabel papers.

I have fussy cut a couple of the flowers from the patterned papers and finished with a sentiment from the gorgeous Stempelglede - Just A Note in the top corner!

Also I got out my WRMK - Sew-Easy Stitch Piercer Tool, used WRMK - Sew-Easy Floss - Yellow, with Sew-Easy Stitch Piercer Head - Zig Zag on the Sew-Easy Piercing Mat.

and this is the selection of copics I've used... Spilling over my pale.

Card for a child

A Spoon full of Sugar's - Challenge 25 ~ A child's card

I wanted to try one of these shadow box cards. They're lovely to make and can be flattened for the envelope.

This is for a seven year old girl, but she's not girly girl, so I went for soft colours and not pinks! She happened to get a new kitten for her birthday so what better image! Here's a detail of my dimensional paper piecing, just can't get enough of that!

Materials:

Paper: Cosmo Cricket QVC TSV

Die's: Nestabilities - Circles. Sizzix - Trixie girl alphabet. Butterfly punch

Stamps: Sugar Nellie - Sweet Ebony, Kitty. PTI - sentiment

Ink: Versafine - Black, Copic sketch markers.

Other: Sakura gel pens, Scrapbook Adhesives Mounting Squares, Glossy accents, Adhesive gems.

This is just a little tutorial...

1. Cut 2 patterned papers 14.5 x 14.5 cm and score at 1cm and 2cm on each edge. On front die cut circle and (you could die cut smaller circle from separate piece to create a frame).

2. Stamp Image on to white card and using copic markers colour the head, hands and feet. Then using the black ink, stamp different parts of the image on scraps of patterned paper

3. Next cut out each stamped section, then layer image using 3d foam and glue to create Dimensional paper piecing. Highlight with pens and glitter to finish.

4. Die cut sentiment, edge with glitter pen add a few flowers from kit. Attach to back of card with 3d foam, decorate with gems.

5. Punch butterflies and decorate, Stamp sentiment and add pretty gems. Then adhere front and back panel together with double sided tape on to edges! 3D box card can be flattened for posting!

Ribbon cheat....

This week's Challenge over on spoon full of sugar is...

3 Different Ribbons.

We would love to see your creations with 3 different ribbons on them. Now I'm kind of cheating a little, in hindsight I probably could have doubled up one more but I'm using the ribbon coloured in the image as one!

Such a cute image made me think of the paper as a garden of yummy flowers so, went with it... The flowers are die cut and punched from coloured vellum, punched butterflies also! I changed the colour of my adhesive lace ribbon with my Brilliance lime ink pad! (it has a shimmer to it, can't see in pic)

Materials:
Paper: BG Euphoria Paper - Ferver, Arcadia, PM vellum, white card,
Die's: Sizzix Daisies, cut'bg tag, Nestabilities- squares, punches - small & large daisy, circle, butterfly.
