Saturated Canary "Anything Goes" Challenge

I decided to attempt a TOTALLY new project to me for my entry into the current challenge over at Saturated Canary "Challenge 41". With the challenge being 'Anything Goes' I made a 'hexagon box' thanks to adapted instructions from Hougie Book 3 from the loverly Kay Rutter at "Hougie Crafts". I die cut an SC diggie for the front of my hexagon box and used the same die cut plain shapes on every side too.

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek

Less Is More - Lime n Black Challenge Card

Mo's Digital Pencil Challenge card

Here is my card made for "Challenge 179" over on the Mo's Digital Pencil challenge blog. Challenge is "Fabric and Mo Image" and I used fabric netting behind Mo's Irish dancer and fabric ribbon and a padded fabric effect embossing folder and some buttons to finish it off.

 

LOTV Challenge card

I have created the following card for the current "All Stitched Up" challenge over at 'Lily of Valley Challenge Blog'. I have used a patchwork stitched embossing folder (new A4 size used with cutting plate and raspberry plate in my grand calibur perfectly) from Embossalicious range at Crafters companion and a loverly fishnet stitch stretchy netting as an embelishment layer behind the topper.

Hope you like it ??

"Pretty Pastels" Saturated Canary Entry

Here is a card I made specifically for "Challenge 40: Pretty Pastels" for which I chose to use the "Butterfly Baby" as it just called out for pastel colouring done with my faithful promarkers.

What a fine INKY mess I am in here - hands are covered in "Dried  Marigold distress ink" (or whatever the colour is called) lol I used a loverly "Saturated Canary" diggie stamp called 'Hairy Situation' to make the main image and kept the card very simple to show the image off to its best.

 

A quick CAS Card

Here is a quick "CAS" card from me (CAS stands for clean and simple) and if you know me well I struggle to STOP myself embelishing cards so this was hard lol

The white layer is edged with a new die I got today and couldnt wait to play with (it's in a set so lots more to play with).
