Happy Birthday

Hello lovelies, hope you are well! There's a brand new challenger over at Arty Divas. Our wonderful sponsor is The Project Bin and the winner will receive a fabulous prize from their shop! Thank you so much to The Project Bin for being our Sponsor. 

My DT creation has been made using the wonderful Just Sayin' stamp set from The Project Bin. 

To make my card I have used these beautiful papers from Manudesign Studio.

The top sheet of paper is from the Blue Velvet paper set.

other sheets of paper are from the Winter scrapbook paper set. 

This stunning image is from Ireland Rose Studios.

I have used the 'Happy Birthday' sentiment from the stamp set along with Black Soot Distress ink. 

To finish, I have adhered this beautiful vintage Blue Rose clipart.
Thank you so much for stopping by, The Arty Divas would love for you to join in with challenge! 

Merriest Christmas- TTCRD

Hello lovelies, hope you are well! Today I am sharing my DT creation for TTCRD. There's a brand new challenge and our fab sponsors are The project bin. The winner will receive a $15 gift certificate to spend in store. 

Here is a little info about them:

The Project Bin was started because its founder, Denise Storck (a long-time stamper and paper-crafter), couldn't find a stamp that said "You are awesome sauce", so she decided to make her own! One thing led to another, and now her small business fills a niche in the card making industry for unique word art sentiments in the highest quality photopolymer clear stamps, made in the U.S.A.

To create my tag I have used the Merriest Christmas stamp set from The project bin. 

Thanks so much for stopping by, see you on the next post! Hugs, Zowie xx 

Thank you for reminding me what butterflies feel like!

Hello lovelies, hope you are well! There's a new craft challenge over at TTCRD so today I am sharing my DT creation! Our sponsor is The Project Bin; here is a little more information about them:

The Project Bin was started because it's founder, Denise Storck (a long-time stamper and paper-crafter) couldn't find a stamp that said 'you are awesome sauce' so she decided to make her own! One thing led to another and now her small business fills a niche in the card making industry for unique word art sentiments in the highest quality photopolymer clear stamps, made in the U.S.A

To make my card, I started with this fabulous Kinda- sorta clear stamp and using a clear block and Black soot distress ink, stamped the image onto a piece of kraft card stock. Next, I lightly distressed the edges using a distressing tool and Ground espresso distress oxide. I have also used these gorgeous papers from my stash,which I distressed using the same technique to achieve an old distressed vintage look.

Once all layers of paper had been adhered to my card base, I then lightly spread some white gesso in random places over the main stamped image. I let this dry naturally, then adhered that on to the centre of the card. I have also used a Tim Holtz stitch stamp to create a sewed look on the paper. 

Finally, I fussy cut a vintage clipart flower, distressed the edges using Ground espresso distress ink and adhered that also to the bottom corner of my card. Thanks so much for stopping by! Hugs, Zowie xx
