Having fun with shaped cards!

Hello! This week at The Friday Mashup, Avery has a great challenge for us with some fun spring colours and the added challenge of creating a shaped card!

The hardest part of this challenge was deciding what shape to make my card! I finally decided to whip out my Labels framelits (I don't use these nearly enough!) and make a nice spring "you make me smile" kind of card. 

I stamped the flowers from Happy Watercolour on a piece of velum and used the Stained Glass technique to colour them. I then matted it with some Whisper White and popped it up with a dimensional. 

Check out the challenge this week:

1. Create a project using the colors "Pool Party, Daffodil Delight, Calypso Coral, Wiseria Wonder & Wild Wasabi"
2. Create a "Shaped Card"
3. Or Mash it Up and create a "Shaped Card using the above colors"

Thanks for stopping by today!

Watercolour Easter for Friday Mashup!

Sara has a great challenge for us this week over at The Friday Mashup; She's got us watercolouring and use Wild Wasabi, Perfect Plum and Daffodil Delight. What wonderful spring colours!

I've used the Happy Watercolor set (yet again, I just can't get enough!). I coloured the flower in Perfect Plum with Blender Pen to give it a soft look. I finished off with a little twine bow and some sweet little white Designer Buttons. 

Check out the challenge this week:

1. Create a project using the colors "Daffodil Delight, Wild Wasabi & Perfect Plum".
2. Create a project using "an Aqua Painter or a Blender Pen to create a Watercolor Effect".
3. Or mash it up and create a project with the "Colors above & a Watercolor Effect".

Rainbows for The Friday Mashup!

Good Friday morning,

This week at The Friday Mashup Heidi has a fun, colourful challenge for us. As St. Patrick's Day is just around the corner, Heidi would like to see some rainbows in our projects!

I started out with a strip of Soft Sky cardstock and punched out 8 chevrons using the Chevron Punch. Then I cut chevrons out of 8 different colours (Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Gumball Green, Pacific Point, Island Indigo and Elegant Eggplant).

Once all those were cut out, I inlayed them into the open slots on the banner. It came out looking so cool (if you ask me!). I reinforced the back with another banner, to make sure the chevrons didn't pop out, but the hold was quite amazing actually!

Finished off with the hardwood background stamp embossed in white and a few little rhinestones.

Check out the challenge this week:

1. Create a project using the "Sketch"
2. Create a project with "Rainbows or Rainbow Colours"
3. Or Mash it Up and create a project with the "Sketch and Rainbow or Rainbow Colours"

Thanks for stopping by today!
