Amazing Autumn Bright


 


  

Autumn colours through the smoke haze in Bright.

It's beginning to look a lot like...



It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas Card Challenge time! 

Both cards are created using Memory Box Country Scenery die cut paired with Winnie and Walter Peace sentiment. 

Card 1 is a shaker card, complete with Winnie and Walter Snow Mask in texture paste background, with Snowflake and Moonbeam sequins.

Card 2 is diecut and coloured then the diecuts are inlaid flat in the diecut background a la Jennifer McGuire. Distress Oxides used were Faded Jeans, Black Soot and Squeezed Lemon, then added a star diecut from MFT Shining Stars in black cardstock already heat embossed in Hero Arts Gold.

Call Me FUSION...


Had fun playing on retreat with some of my favourite crafty girls! 

Inspired by this fortnights FUSION photo, I created this cute hello, hello card using La La Land telephone, My Favorite Things (MFT) Big Hello and Paper Smooches Hello sentiment dies.

To play along you can take inspiration from either the FUSION sketch or inspiration photo - or combine the two as I have!

Can't wait to see what you create!

Altenew and Alcohol...


Had super fun experimenting with alcohol inks while away crafting. Using alcohol inks on Yupo paper and blotting excess ink with paper towel to create the patterned variations in colour, then paper pieced behind this super gorgeous Altenew die cut rose and paired with Altenew die cut lower case alphabet. Love how the combination of bright inks and bold black diecut makes it look like stained glass.

Loving this fortnights FUSION super sketch and gorgeous baby room inspiration photo! My CAS baby card was created using a combination of Hero Arts patchwork elephant, paper pieced with this super cute Lawn Fawn hearts patterned paper, in a gorgeous Lil Inkers stitched circle die, fittingly topped with Mama Elephants' sentiment.
