Berry Nice!

Hello everyone! It is time for another challenge at The Craft Garden where our theme this month is a picture. For my card I have used one of the gorgeous La-La Land Crafts stamps (I am obsessed with this stamp range!) and I coloured her with copics. My sentiment is from Whimsy Stamps and I have also used some dies from Magnolia.

 

Vintage Transport!

Time for another challenge over at The Craft Garden and our theme this month is to use either a duck or train in your project. I have made a card featuring a train which I coloured with copics. My train and sentiment are from the 'vintage transport 2' stamp collection from Whimsy Stamps.

Clara Blues!

For my creation I have used one of the gorgeous stamps designed by Hannah Lynn for Crafts and Me and she is called 'Clara'.

Hello Kitty Rainbow Bookmark!

We are now onto another challenge at The Craft Garden, and our theme this month is 'rainbows'! Now I love rainbows and I also love Hello Kitty so I thought I would make a cute little Hello Kitty bookmark. For this bookmark I used my Cricut and my 'Hello Kitty' cartridge. I used some Hello Kitty paper I got off eBay and embossed the edges with silver embossing powder.
 Please join us over at The Craft Garden for our 'rainbow' challenge! Looking forward to seeing everyone's rainbow projects!

 

Frog Prince!

It is time again for another fun challenge at The Craft Garden! Our challenge this month is a beautiful picture of Monets Garden. For my project this month I was inspired by all the green and the lilys in the water. It made me think of frogs on lily pads so I came up with a frog Prince card! To create my card I used my Cricut machine and 'create a critter' cartridge. My flowers are from Hooked On Craft.

Vintage Bookmark!

We are now onto another challenge at The Craft Garden and our challenge is to be inspired by this picture:

I was inspired by the vinatge theme of the picture so I decided to make a bookmark featuring vintage paper. I embossed the edges of my bookmark with gold embossing powder and also embossed a sentiment and some butterlies. I finished my vintage bookmark off with antique looking seam binding.

Bear On A Present!

Happy New Year everyone! Hope you all have a wonderful, happy and safe new year! 
It is time for another challenge at The Craft Garden and our challenge this month is 'at least 50% red'. I have made a card for a 1st birthday featuring a cute bear sitting on top of a big red present. My bear is a 'tear bear' and I made it with mulbury paper using a pattern from The Beary Scrap. This was the first tear bear I have made and it was so much fun, I can't wait to make more of these cuties!
Come on over to The Craft Garden and play with our 'red' challenge!
