Stretch Those Dies Part 2

Yes, a second post for me today :) I wanted to create another card like the one I posted earlier but this time I used different dies for my rainbow.

I have the Lawn Fawn Joy to the Woods stamps and dies and the birch tree die was perfect for creating my rainbow!

The sentiment is from the Lawn Fawn Life is Good set.




I once again followed the sketch from ShowCASe your Style (It is a loose interpretation this time)


I would like to enter my card into these challenges -

Stretch those Dies!

Good morning everyone. I would like to show you a card that I made last night. I actually had one of those lightbulb moments. I had looked at the sketch over at ShowCASe your Style for a few days and really wasn't sure what to do and then an idea just came to me so off I went into the craft room.


Here is my card




My first idea didn't work out. I created my rainbow using watercolours but didn't like the end result. I wished I had a die that would just cut strips for me but I didn't have that either and then I remembered I had a Window Box die that would do the trick. I cut out my pieces from different coloured paper and mounted them on my light blue panel and then assembled the rest of the card.

The Stitched Rectangle die is from Lil' Inkers as is the sentiment. I used my Stitched Hillside Border die from Lawn Fawn to create my gap.

The little raindrops are from PTI.


I would like to enter my card into the following challenges

Sprinkled Happiness

Hello! How are you? Nice to see you back :)

I'm getting a little excited because there are only 3 more sleeps until ATSM goes live for the first time in 2015. I'm also excited about the Design Team - new gals and the old gals. I can't wait for it all to start up again.

In the meantime, I have used a rainy Sunday afternoon to create a card. 



I have used the colours from the current challenge at ShowCASe your Style. I really loved the DT examples but I feel I didn't capture these colours very well at all. 

I die cut the Sprinkled word twice - once in black and a second in lime and popped up the lime layer. The bottom of my PTI paper was die cut with my new Stitched Hillside Border dies from Lawn Fawn. The stamp set used is PTI Shakers and Sprinkles.

Here is the inside of my card - very basic with a simple Happy Birthday from the same PTI set.



Here are the challenges I am entering -






Ruby's Rainbow #95 - What did Santa Bring (my Lawn Fawn Dies)
Fantasy Stampers #27 - Happy Birthday



Thanks so much for looking

G'day!

G'day everyone. How are you today. Well, after a couple of days of much needed rain and cooler temperatures, the heat and humidity are back with a vengeance, blah!

I received some happy mail yesterday even though I was hoping it would come before Christmas so they could go under the tree. Two little Lawn Fawn stamps with dies. I had a little play overnight and here is what I came up with.




This little birdie is from the Winter Sparrows set. I decided that by adding the little music notes, I could change the earmuffs into headphones and have this little fella jiving away to some tunes.

I have coloured him with my Spectrum Noir markers and then die cut him and the branch

The stitched rectangle dies are from Lil' Inkers.

The G'day stamp is from a Inspired by Stamping set called Teeny Tiny Greetings.

I would like to enter my card into the following challenges -

613 Avenue Create - Anything Goes


(I missed out on the last challenge which was a sketch)




I have recently joined up at Kit and Clowder and aim to do some of the colouring courses that Alyce has on offer. She is amazing (and an Aussie girl ;) )


Thank so much for looking xx
