GDT for WHIMSY STAMPS INSPIRATION CHALLENGE

Morning everyone

I am here today feeling very honoured to be sharing my card I made as Guest Designer for the lovely Challenge at The Whimsy Stamps Inspiration challenge

There is a fabulous theme, which I just loved working to. The  theme is 'Pretty in Pink''.  How lovely is that!

I was so lucky, I got to choose this lovely Whimsy image called 'Little Geek'which is available in the Whimsy shop in digi.  I have  coloured her with Copics.  Well, she is not a pretty image, and the theme is 'Pretty in Pink' so I have prettied the card up to fit the theme.  So my Pretty in Pink is the card and not the image.  But isn't she gorgeous!  I opted for dusky pink too rather than a pretty pink as I felt it ws more fitting.

I opted to make another shaped card again. (No surprises there! lol)  this time it is a double easel card made from a five inch and four inch square pieced together.

GDT - C.R.A.F.T Challenge #201 - Re-cycle

Morning everyone

I am here today feeling very honoured to be sharing my first card I made as Monthly Guest Designer for the lovely Challenge at C.R.A.F.T. Challenge

The theme  is entitled 'Re-cycled'.  Now I had to get my thinking cap on for this one, and there was a very tight deadline for this first card, so I used some of the spare buttons I have kept from garments.

There are multiple sponsors so do pop over to the is  C.R.A.F.T. Challenge and take a look.  I used an image from one of the sponsor's who is offering3 images as the prize - do pop over and take a look at the images at  Gingerloft

This card had to be made quickly, so I opted to make a very simple design but I have decorated the inside too and added a detachable tag.

Die-cuts: Marianne Creatables and Magnolia Tag
