Arty Girlz Challenge #9

I know I am late but here is my entry to the Arty Girlz challenge.

This week's challenge is 'Hearts' so as usual feel free to interpret our theme as you like and it's entirely up to you whether you make a card, an atc...bake a cake etc. etc.

Here is my ATC. I've had this stamp for ages. I feel quite proud I've finally used lol.

Magickdivas "words" challenge

Magick diva said

Today's challenge is to add a WORD to your artwork - any form of artwork can be submitted - and there are endless possibilities for a WORD to be included

I went to my stash found something with words on & created a card round it. Quite pleased with the results really especially as it took about 2 mins to make lol. What do you think?

Get Crafty Comp Part 2 (broken rules fixed)

I didn't read Emma of Get Crafty's comp rules properly so my 'sassy' card broke the rules (shock horror) there was no embossing!! I have now added my daughters name in silver ink, on silver mirror card, embossed with clear embossing powders. I have never made her a Christmas card & I just know she is going to be happy with this one. Just need to work out how to get all those feathers in the envelope now :-D

Think I have done it in the nick of time ...comp ends today :-/

Arty Girlz & Magickdiva & Daring Card Makers

I have managed to get 3 challenges in to 1 card.

Arty Girlz Challenge #8 Bling

Magicdiva Something with a number on it

Daring Card Makers hand cut something

This looks quite dull in the pic but the card is pearlised so is the paper. It is edged with silver ink and finished off with sparkly gems.

Inching Artists Challenge #7 Housies

The challenge on Inching Artists was to make a housie inchie.

I had an idea.

I would get my daughter to draw a house & I would make it in to an inchie.

She drew a lovely little house & I set too colouring it and mounting it. Turned around and saw she had made herself one. I think it is fantastic so I mounted it for her.

Mine is on the right with the sun, hers is on the left with the clouds. Do you think at 5 she is the youngest inchie artist?

Arty Girls Challenge #7 ~ Rainbow Colours

I know I am going to be in trouble for this one. Lol. This is for the Arty Girls Challenge

I think Crissi would call it thinking out of the box

I think Julie would call it cheating

I call it last minute rush

To be honest I am not even going to think about what Cynthia would call it, because this is what she said

"I would like you to create a work of art using just THREE colours from the Rainbow spectrum. In case you have forgotten they are (Richard Of York Gave Battle in Vain, or Run Off You Girls, Boys In View)RED, ORANGE, YELLOW, GREEN, BLUE, INDIGO AND VIOLET.No mixing of colours please just use them as they are."

Well as I am in Christmas mode & can't get out I went for red and green (obviously) but I couldn't get the third colour in so i went for gold. From the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. lol lol

Oh well at least I tried eh?

Sassy Christmas

Emma form Get Crafty put up a challenge to make a sassy Christmas card. I looked sassy up in the dictionary & this is what it said.


sas·sy 1 (sās'ē) adj. sas·si·er, sas·si·est
1) Rude and disrespectful; impudent.
2) Lively and spirited; jaunty.
3) Stylish; chic: a sassy little hat.


I think my card fulfills number 2.


Personally I think it is terrible. (In my opinion Christmas should be red & green.) DD thinks it is "beautiful" but then she is pink and fluffy.

Don't know if you can tell but the background is hand stamped & coloured (pink) baubles.

Tilda all made up.

I have so many stamped images of Tilda all coloured in several different ways. Most are rubbish, some are ok & it is the ok ones that I have started to make some of them in to christmas cards. Here are my first 3
