Autumnal

Posted on by Liz

Time for another one I have coloured myself. An autumn one. We are mid-autumn here at the moment and it is so pretty and colourful outside. I think I have to go for a walk just to take photos of it one day next week. But yes, anyway, card.

The image I have coloured is an Elisabeth Bell one from the colouring pads at The Hobby House. I coloured it in with copics. I have used plain stock card for the corners and the brown paper is by Tim Holtz, and I don’t remember where the purple one is from. The flowers and ribbon are by Wild Orchid Crafts and the sentiment is by Kort og Godt. I have also used various dies and punches: Dienamics, Martha Stewart and QuicKutz. Ok, it’s not quite that untidy and hard to find things, but you get the gist, haha. The jeweled butterfly is purchased at a local shop.

Another simple cards; one of my favourites. Maybe that’s because it’s purple… Anyway, the image I have used is a pre-coloured topper by Lili of the Valley, and the sentiment stamp is also from there. The ribbon and bow are from Wild Orchid Crafts and the paper is by Papermania. I added a small row on purple rhinestones and used tiny yellow ones for the flowers also.

Make sure you create something today, after all it is World Card Making day! 🙂

It seems like I have gotten into the habit of posting a simple card as every other post, so I guess we are due another!

This one has been made using one of Lili of the Valley‘s pre-coloured toppers. I do love these! The ribbon is from a local shop and I believe the lace is purchased at Bikuben, as well as the rhinestones. The paper is one I have had forever and I don’t remember where it’s from. A shame really as I wouldn’t have minded more of it.. heh.

Mid September already… Wasn’t it just Christmas? I can barely keep up anymore! I guess I should try to get cracking this weekend making some Christmas cards. That is, if I can find the time in between the 5 other cards I have to get done. Either way I am glad to spend some time making more cards. I haven’t had time to do anything the past month! I haven’t even had time to start on the colouring classes I purchased a month ago. Thankfully it looks like October will be a bit more predictable with a little less plans on the menu.

Anyway. Card! As you can see, this is another simple one. I have once again used a pre-coloured topper by Lili of the Valley. The ribbon is by Wild Orchid Crafts and the pearls I have had for a few years so I simply no longer remember!

Have a great weekend!

card250_1Time for another card that’s I’ve made for someone else, based on another card I have made. She was quite fond of a card I had made for another co-worker, for a baby. I suggested we add some blue and make it a bit more masculine, but we had to keep some of the purple as that is her favourite colour. I’m pleased with how I managed to keep it obvious it’s been inspired by the other card, but still make it quite different.

I used a pre-coloured topper by The Hobby House. Craftwork Cards have made the doily. The ribbon, lace and card stock is from a local shop. All the flowers are purchased at Wild Orchid Crafts as well as the big white pearls, and the punches I have used are by Martha Stewart. As you can see, my love of adding butterflies to everything is still quite strong, heh.
