Alphabet challenge blog.

 One more challenge for today, again using the black cards.

This one is for the Alphabet challenge blog. where it is F for Festivities.

 A friend's son, that I have known since birth, is getting married. I made an extra special card for them.


I used a kaisercraft pad I had featured muted flowers. There were also stickers to match. I mounted them on neutral coloured card, then attached 2 bunches with pop dots. They make the card 3D.

 I put the sentiment "happy day" and a tiny heart on the card.

Inside the card I have put the same flower sticker again with a message saying the best is yet to come. 

Addicted to CAS and Li'l red wagon.

 I've made a card this morning for the Addicted to CAS 

The code word is UP.

I have some black cards to use and thought of sympathy card,so here's my idea.


Ive put a matching balloon journal card on the inside to write on.

                                                  ****************************
My next black card is foe Li'l red wagon.
Sometimes I think this particular challenge is psychic. They often match up to a project I'm working on.
Theme of this month's Counterfeit Kit is music.
I used a tag I made years ago, maybe 20 years ago!
It fits with the theme and will be good for Christmas thank you at church.



Junk journal using Artstacks

 I've made 3 more junk journal pages using the things I bought from Artstacks.


Here they are.




This leaves me with the pink canvas to use. I'm still deciding about that one.

Build a layout at the scraproom.

 



I started with a summer paper featuring dragonflies and another pink floral paper. I added twine and ribbon across the bottom. I used mixed alphas from "Double churned scrap board alphabets" plus a sticker word that said blessed. I found some buttons to co-ordinate and there you have it!

The scraproom jumpstart sketch

 

This is the jumpstart sketch at the scraproom. I decided to rotate it 180 degrees.



I used 2 papers from my Counterfeit kit plus a lage doiley. The orange papers are scraps I had.

My alphas are enormous but I'm trying to use them. I just dotted some enamel dots and small diecuts as my embellishments.

Sketch challenge at Soul scrappers

 





Something went wrong on the layout but I can't figure what as I matched with the stripes all the way while making it.Maybe it is an optical illusion. I've even measured to check.

Anyway enjoy it for what it is...colourful! 

li'l red wagon

 At Li'l red wagon they have a see through challenge.

I took a paint chip and punched 2 daisies in it. Next, I turned it over and covered the holes with pink spotted paper. I punched another daisy from matching paper and after adding washi tape, placed it in the centre. I added a brad as a final embellishment.
