Crafting When We Can Challenge #53~Seasons~

As promised, here is my first post as a DT for CRAFTING WHEN WE CAN CHALLENGES.

The theme for Challenge #53 is SEASONS.

We want to see how you illustrate Seasons either with an image, colours, items, sentiment etc.

Our wonderful Sponsor is the talented Krista from

Saturated Canary

I used the fabulous Picnic digi.  

Summer for me, is picnics with Family and Friends, Bright colors and flowers. So I started with a flower shaped card I created with my Cricut. I colored the image with my SN Markers and cut it out with the circle die from Spellbinders. I highlighted the embossed edge with my stardust marker.

The sentiment is from Create with TLC and layered on a fabric flower from My Mind's Eye. All the cardstock is from American Crafts. I finished it with resin flower from Close to My Heart Stamps and paper flowers from recollections. The pearls are from my stash.

I hope you join us in this challenge this week and be sure to stop my teamies to see what special treats they created for you this week!

Fairy Wishes!

Happy Saturday Everyone! Today, I have a "Fairy" special birthday card!

 

This was inspired from {Pin}spirational Challenge #65  {pin}spiring picture

 

I just love the Purples, greens, and the whimsical feel of it.

 

I started with a Large Circle Cutout in Bazzil's Purple Cardstock and folded the back circle at an inch from the top to create the crease to my card. I cut out two smaller circles in different cardstocks/papers for the base card.

 

I used Patches the Fairy Digi from Saturated Canary and colored her with Spectrum Noir Markers. I made a double set of the wings and colored them and used Stickles in Diamond to give them some sparkle.

 

 

The Birthday sentiment is from Stampin' Up! The larger butterflies were made with an EK punch; the smaller ones from Fiskars Mini Butterfly punch. The flowers, ribbon, bling, pearls and buttons were from my stash. The crochet Dragon fly is a new purchase from my local craft store- was just waiting for the right card to use it! :)

Cherry Picnic

Good Day! For today's card I have used Picnic from Saturated Canary. Really Cute Images; they are so much fun to color!

I printed the image onto Ultra Smooth Premium Cardstock from Crafter's Companion and colored it with  Spectrum Noir Markers.

 

I die cut the image and used pop dots to  give it dimension. Berry Twigs, flowers and pearls were used for embellishments.

 

 

Supplies: 

Cardstock: Ultra Smooth Premium Cardstock (Crafter's Companion),  Berry Dot Embossed carstock (Recollections) and Cherry print cardstock (DCVW "The Sweet Matstack").
