Mystical tic tac toe challenge

At Mystical scrapbooks they have 2 challenges.

The first one is based on a tic tac toe .
I've gone across the middle line.
Black and white, 2 pattern papers and lace.



My cluster contains chipboard painted, plus flowers,buttons,lace daisies and a shaker box I made containing small gold beads. The title is rub-ons and there's another lace corner bracket around the photo.
I kept it in monochromatic tones to highlight the photo.
The second pattern paper is on the front of the shaker box.

case this sketch


I'm starting the day with another card for Case this sketch.
This one gives the opportunity to use up scraps.
I'm making a card for a young man who loves hiking and travels to unusual places.
He recently abseiled in South America.
The papers I chose reflect the great outdoors and also match the rucksack I used.

Festive Friday



It's national unicorn day at Festive Friday.

I've chosen rhinestones, glimmer and puffy sticker.

The sticker of the dancing girl was left from a set I bought in Las Vegas.Too good to waste!
I mounted her on white card then shimmery pink corrugated card. Around the edges I added pink rhinestones. My background papers are bright to match her hair. The sentiment seems fitting.
(Hopefully,we will be celebrating soon from the end of Covid virus.)


Tuesday Taggers and others.

I'm making a few different things for different challenges.
First is a tag with the theme of Home for Tuesday taggers.
The green background is not part of the tag.
 I plan to use this on a scrapbooking layout so have not put ribbon through the hole at the top.




Next is for Daring Cardmakers where the theme is recycle.

I've made this card using an old atlas page (thanks for the idea) plus a scrap of hessian that originally came from a hessian bag. With males in mind, I thought it would make a great birthday card for an older man.

My third is for scrapping 4 fun challenges  where they want candy ,cake or ice cream.

International art and soul

At International Art and soul they want green as our main colour.
I'm using scraps and making a card for a friend with birthday on 30th March.


The background paper is mainly green and the smaller rectangle is a dark olive green. Even the background on the butterfly is lime green.
A little pale blue and brown adds some interest.

Let's get sketchy




Here's the sketch for Lets get sketchy

I'm using the last piece of paper from my alternate kit which is the ombre squares.
My title was too big for the area designated so I put it top and bottom.
I have put 2 clusters of items as in the sketch.
The pastel suited this as the photos are so bright.

Paper Issues scraplift


This morning I am scraplifting a layout from Paper Issues.
I used an embossed paper from my alternative kit.Then after misting with purple, I added the 3 vertical strips of patterned paper.
My photo is triple matted as in the original.
I added yellow enamel dots in the same places and a cluster top left.
The wood veneer crowns were inked with silver to match the Jolie Boutique silver stars.
