INKspired Sketch Blog Hop 53 - Mediterranean Moments


Hello and welcome you may have landed here straight away or
 hopped across from the delightful
and I can't wait to see what she has made.
Teneale Williams gives us a
sketch every fortnight that we use to make our card
Cherry Cobbler is my base card and then added a piece of Crumb cake to the top.
I sponged around the Crumb cake with crumb cake ink and Soft Suede ink to give added depth. I then used some stamps from Timeless Texture stampset to stamp around the edge in Crumb cake ink.

Cut a strip of Cherry Cobbler and a smaller strip of Crumb Cake. Then stamped the words from Balloon Adventures - Happy Birthday.


Loved the cat from the Mediterranean Moments - stamped with Archival Basic Black onto Shimmery White cardstock. Then used the lovely Watercolour Pencils to colour in with as well as a Blender pen.
Cut out and used Cherry Cobbler scalloped circle behind the Shimmery White.

Rhinestones applied and the card was 
completed.


Now it is onto the gorgeous Barbara 
and I can't wait to see what she has made

INKspired Sketch Blog Hop 52 - Dragonfly Dreams


Hello and welcome everyone to our 
INKspired blog hop.
You may have hopped across from the delightful
Allison and I am always keen to see what she has made for us.. 
It is so much fun to see
everyone's creations

Now below is the sketch that
Teneale Williams has given us this fortnight
to use
 With so many gorgeous items in the Occasions catalogue
it was a hard decision on what to use......
but Dragonfly Dreams won out - love Dragonflies and we have so  many around this year.
My friend Roseanne (lives just outside Casino, NSW) took a great picture and I have her permission
to add it to my blog post tonight. She is an
amazing photographer and I feel privileged to share
this photograph with everyone.
Top shot Roseanne!
Now for my card I started with Early Espresso cardstock for main card.

A piece of crumbcake cardstock that I used the Petal Burst embossing folder on then sponged the edge with Early Espresso ink.
Then stamped the dots from the Timeless Textures stampset in crumbcake ink onto it.
I also stamped the dots on the Very Vanilla square in crumb cake ink. The words from the Dragonfly Dreams were stamped in Early Espresso ink.

Attached some Gold Metallic thread under my dragonfly 
and my card was done!

Thank you for stopping by.
Now it is onto the wonderful
Barbara and I can't wait to see what she has made
