Naughty or nice challenges

Over at https://naughtyornicechallenge.blogspot.com.au/ they want us to use punches

That photo had me laughing!
I've used flower punchies as my background with a card I've had for ages that says "I have issues".

Jingle Belles

http://jinglebellesrock.blogspot.com.au/ wants flowers on Christmas cards.
I already had the tag on this card from last Christmas, but have added to it by adding background paper(obviously) and another white flower with a giant green brad.
The background on the tag was done by misting.
The Christmas stamp (with holly) is from Kaisercraft.

challenge #2

Be inspired by woodland

Challenge #2: A Walk in the Woods

In the fall, we often take long walks in the woods to enjoy the crisp air and turning of the leaves. For this challenge, let the forest be your inspiration. Create a project inspired by the woods. For ideas, check out this Pinterest board.

I've made a layout inspired by bears.
Teddy bears in fact!
While in Germany I visited the Steiff store and bought a little something for my daughter.

 

I've used autumn colours on this including torn mulberry paper to get the fuzzy bear look.

I added flowers, a butterfly and a heart to echo the woodland.

The photo on the left has lots of woodland creatures.

Next I used a reindeer
I painted through a stencil of a tree using brown paint on hessian.
I had a wood veneer reindeer that I wanted to use.
After searching Pinterest I  found this (there are lots of reindeer ideas on Pinterest)

That made me think of liquid pearls

Here is my finished card with snow on the tree, plus reindeer.

 

And while on the reindeer theme I made these from felt.

The pattern is on Pinterest.

 

Whimsical Musings #91 and butterfly challenge.

I put 4 rolls of Washi tape in my counterfeit kit and wanted to use them.
A week or so ago I did a layout similar except the washi went vertically.
This time I've gone horizontal to match the quote.
There are 2 butterflies on the layout.

I'm entering this at http://butterflyspotchallenge.blogspot.com.au/ as well because they want a quote,in fact ,this quote was suggested by them.

4 challenges

I've used items from my Counterfeit kit to construct this card for http://colourq.blogspot.com.au/ 
I'm so pleased to use those turquoise vellum leaves.
I'm also entering at Shopping Our stash where they want a thank you card.

*****************************************************

When putting the card above on Counterfeit Kit challenges, I followed Tina to Jo's scrap shack

There I found another challenge.

 

 

This led to another Christmas card.

My technique is tearing and the colours are red, green and white.

The 2 embellishments are the dotty bows.

 

 

This also fits the requirement of a Contemporary Christmas card at Cardz4galz.

Sketch Saturday

It is 10.30pm and I'm tired.
I've been on a card making frenzy tonight as there is a huge demand for my cards at the local community centre.
This card is a male one for http://sketchsaturday.blogspot.com.au/ and is based on this sketch

As my brother in law has a birthday in December and was a train driver, I used a scrap featuring train tracks. He will get the connection.
The rust coloured mulberry paper has a rough edge.

Li'l red wagon and cute card Thursday

This is the sketch this week at Li'l red wagon.
I've used a tag I made recently and co-ordinating snowmen paper on a tall, thin card.
I'm also entering it at Scrapping4fun challenges
Here's my card.

 

Meanwhile at Cute card Thursday they want something metallic.

I've used 3 silver circles on this small gift card.
