Your Crafts from this week

 

Good Sunday Morning Ladies,  

I hope that you are all being spoilt today my lovelies.  

Today's reminder is very apt for me today,  as we had a lovely afternoon in the garden yesterday, I really didn't do very much apart from a little bit of weeding in my pots and some pruning, our garden is on quite a hill though so just getting up and down had me breathless!  I definitely wouldn't be able to get out there at all without my walker !  

Let's have a look at what yoo have been making ....

Karen's Description:  

1:   My version of tea lovers, Very simple 

Gingham card which I dread to think how old it is from C&C 

Die from Dreamweavers paper pieced with card coloured with Ecoline pens I shadowed them slightly with pencil but also added a grey shadow (Hickory Smoke DO) and a printed sentiment

2:  Circus finished

I love this clown image found on Pinterest 

Added the sentiment coloured to match the image and turned into a sticker

I have decoupaged the image 

Added some texture paste and decided against splatters

Edged imaged with Tumbled Glass DO

I love that you are enjoying creating these pages for the Aa&C Challenge,   I know the feeling as I love creating the journal pages,  I think its because there is no pressure for perfection as its for our enjoyment only.  

Your Tea Lovers card is brilliant and I love the checked card as the tablecloth,  brilliant idea. 

Now I'm generally not a lover of clowns,  I find them terrifying, the image you have found is completely different though,  it has such a sweet face, not frightening in the slightest.   Your background is so clever too, with the texture paste stencilling is a brilliant idea for juggling balls!  

Everything works perfectly!  

Thank you so much for sharing your inspirational ideas with us XXX

Lilian's Description:

Hi, here is my piece for this week. It’s taken me a week to do kitchen, this the best I could come up with.

As usual Stamperia papers, from several books. I wish I cut the window out first and put a background behind it.

Lilian it's perfect, I love the papers you have used, I have been thinking all week what to do for the Kitchen category,  you have given me some ideas!  

Thank you so much for taking part my lovely XXX

Maria's Description

I have been sitting here for some hours now and made this card together.

Lilian mentioned something about "Kitchen" so I had a look at my stickers to see what I could use and here it is.

Paper as a background. Distress Inks, White Splatters and Kitchen Stickers used here

Many hugs to you all 💕 xxx

Your time was well spent my lovely,  your card is lovely,  the background is amazing and your card works perfectly for the challenge.

Sonia's Description:

I made this card for Dad to give Mum tomorrow on Mother’s Day. The background papers are printed. I’ve used a Sue Wilson die as the focal point and the little circle die cut sentiment, from my stash. The butterflies are from the new set I bought by Craft Addiction. I added some clear gems to finish it off 😊

Oh Sonia your papers are so beautiful, they work perfectly for your pretty design,  your mum will love it.  So sweet that your dad gives your Mum a card.

Thank you so much for sharing your lovely card with us XXX
