Can You Case It #118 - Sketch Challenge

I can't believe we are at the end of another weekend already. But the good news is I have been crafting up a storm these last few days and I have a fab little card to share with you today for the Can You Case It challenge. This week we have a great sketch to share with you all and the shape can be anything!

I of course had to go against the grain and decided on butterflies as my shape:

Now Melon Mambo, really isn't a colour I use too often. I think I can fess up and say that it is'nt a fav of mine. Such a shocking confession I know!

My inspiration of this card came from one of the cards I made up that was in the kit Tin of Cards. Out of the four design, the butterfly one really stuck out for me. I just loved the idea of stamping a word, in this case Happy, over and over again on the full butterfly and then placing a "skeleton" butterfly over the top. Such a great little technique.

Hot pink, black and silver are just made for each other, so the rest of the card came together super quickly.

Now it's your turn! Head on over the the CYCI blog, check out the cards made by the other DT's and then take part yourself.

Happy Crafting,
Chlo

TGIF Challenge #49 - Colour Challenge

Wow, this is the exciting news I have been waiting to share with you all. I was recently asked if I would like to join the Design Team for the TGIF Challenge blog!! I was so honored to be asked especially considering the level of Crafters that are on the team. Heaps are current and past Artisan Design members!! Eek, I hope I can keep up with them all!!

So my first ever challenge with the guys was a colour pallet and I couldn't wait to get creating.

When I first pulled out all the colours and put them on my desk, I was a little stumped with how I was going to bring all of them together, but after some stamping I came up with this:

I decided to use all the colours as accent colours and to tie them in together using mainly Basic Black. I also hadn't used Kinda Eclectic for a while and decide today was a good day to get it inky.

Now I know the Elegant Butterfly punched vellum and silver glimmer aren't stuck down straight but that was how it's suppose to be. I'm sorry for all my OCD visitors, if it's driving you crazy!

So that's my first card as a Design Team Member for the TGIF blog. I'm really excited and can't wait to see what you guys all come up with over the next few days. And remember, we love it when you all visit so don't forget to leave a little blog love!!

Happy Crafting,
Chlo
