My Besties Spanish September 2018 Challenge - Anything Goes


Hello Everybody!


We have a new challenge starting at My Besties Spanish Challenge Blog today, and I hope you'll join us!  The theme is always ANYTHING GOES!



I used the cutest boy digi stamp by Sherri Baldy this week called Giving Thanks Boy.  I coloured him with Copics,  For my background I used a brick wall stencil with moulding paste tinted with distress inks.  The wooden fence is dry brushed with acrylic craft paint.  I added a piece of webbed trim and hessian owl ribbon.  The bird nest is by Recollections and my sentiment is part of a Thanksgiving stamp set.

Remember, you can enter using any image, but we'd love to see a My Besties image on your creation.  



Winners will be competing for these stamps:

The Paper Shelter Challenge #350 - Digital Image


This week I used the cutest pre-coloured digital image called "A Lunch on Wheels".  I cut the image out with a Nesties die and used my patterened Fiskars scissors called "Stamp" to cut out my background papers.  The patterned papers, sentiment and clock are from the Bo Bunny The Avenues Collection.  One of my favourite craft items is a little wooden ribbon maker which makes perfect bows every time.


Such pretty papers inside this pack included this clock to which 
I've just added some metal clock hands with a brad

  
I used a ribbon border punch on the inside of my card and 
slipped Gorjuss ribbon through it

The Paper Shelter Challenge #346 - Celebrations


I made an anniversary card.  I used the Summertime, Retro Style digital stamp. I used the pre-coloured image with the background paper.  This makes carding so easy when you have the additional pre-coloured stamps and background papers available.  I cut out a frame and placed the image under the frame.  The paper on the frame is from Bo Bunny.  


I added a gem swirl and a variety of flowers, some of which I made using a die. I need to spend a day making a bunch of different coloured flowers, they are the perfect addition to a floral arrangement.
