shopancrop february blog challenge 2017

the challenge for shopancrop this month was a Tic Tac Toe
http://shopancrop.blogspot.com.au/p/current-challenge.html


I chose to work with Pattern Paper, Sequins and Wood Veneer.
All the product I used was from Cocoa Vanilla Studios  Make a Wish Collection and the base page was from Kaisercraft Weave Collection Bubblegum.
I based the sketch around one from a Scrapbook and Cards Today Calendar 2013, though by the time I finished it had changed somewhat!






thanks for looking:)


Kaisercraft February blog Challenge 2017

The challenge was to create a card using the following moodboard, and majority Kaisercraft products



I made a twist and pop card guided by the very clear and understandable video recently released by Design Team member Collette Mitrega.
Thanks Collette, I think I will be making more of these!!








I used the Kaisercraft Island Escape Collection, and Collectables, with a few doodlebug Designs Sprinkles.

More Than Words challenge Blogspot November 2016

http://morethanwordschallenge.blogspot.com.au/2016/11/november-2016-main-challenge-special.html

I had fun making an art journal spread with this challenge.



Something Old-
I used my Dylusions Ink Sprays- which I have had for a long time now.
I also used some Tim Holtz Tissue Paper that I have had for many years.
A Prima Julie Nutting Doll Stamp- again I have had for ages and rarely used
Old cardboard letters
also letters cut from an out of date  magazine

Something New -
 my new crafter's Workshop  stencil 456 (lines)
My new Kazzazz Alcoholic Markers which I recently won in a raffle
my new Carabelle Studios Art Stamps " Etiquettes Grunge"

Something Blue-
 Dylusions Sprays  London Blue  and Vibrant Turquoise

Something Borrowed-
 I borrowed ideas on building journal pages from a video( Mixed Media Art Journal Page Tutorial) by Tiffany Solorio on u tube ( found it on Pinterest!)

The word Special is incorporated into the pages in a phrase close to my heart.




I think I have covered the criteria!!
