A Gift

I created this card for the latest Less is More Challenge - it is the dreaded one layer week and the theme is Cute, I have already entered one card and I almost forgot about this one.

My image is from LOTV and I have used my Spectrum Noir Illustrator Pens to colour it.

The sentiment comes with the image and I have added 3D Crystal Lacquer to the dots on the gift.

The theme for the week is Birds, Butterflies & Birthday Wishes and there is a separate challenge each day, the seventh and final challenge is a colour challenge.

I used one of Bugaboo's older images called Happy Birthday to create my final card.  I coloured my image with Spectrum Noir Illustrator Pens and added glitter pen to the balloon, stars and frosting on the cake.

I apologise for having multiple posts on the same day, all of the challenges have to be completed by 7am today and I couldn't guarantee that I would be up in time to link my card up so I had to do it before I went to bed!

Love Heart

I saw a card similar to this on YouTube and decided to recreate it in my own style for the Less is More Challenge.

I used an Apple Blossom Flower stamp and coloured it with my Spectrum Noir Illustrator Pens.  The heart is an X-Cut die and the background is a Cuttlebug embossing folder.

I coloured the outside of my card base with one of the same Illustrator pens that I coloured the flower with and also coloured the sentiment strip - the sentiment stamp is from Craftwork Cards.

Embroidered Birthday

This is the third card that I have created with this months Craftwork Cards November Stamp Club stamp set, this time I have teamed it up with one of the beautiful Embroidered Blooms papers.

I coloured the stamp with my Spectrum Noir Illustrator pens and then cut it out with a Tattered Lace die.  I drew around the die on some pink card stock to create a mat.

I stamped the 'HAPPY' on a scrap of the pink card stock and fussy cut three of the flowers so that I could overlap the stamped panel.

Birthday Flowers

This is the first card that I have created with this months Craftwork Cards November Stamp Club stamp set.

I used papers from the Vintage Dreams Paper Pad and coloured the stamp with my Spectrum Noir Illustrator pens.  I lightly distressed the edges of everything and inked them with Distress Inks.

I stamped the flowers and leaves from this months stamp set and several previous stamp club stamp sets.  I fussy cut them and layered some of them up for dimension.

Sending Special Wishes

This is the final card (so far) that I have created with the October Stamp Club kit from Craftwork Cards - I'm sure there will be some more in the future but I have this months kit to play with now!

I stamped the image and coloured it with a combination of ProMarkers and Spectrum Noir Illustrator Pens.  I then cut the image through the centre and added a sentiment from another Craftwork Cards stamp set stamped onto a white panel.
