Just hatched and more English Country Garden…

Hello

I’m back as planned.

Ms E’s manager is leaving the store to go to another store. She asked me to make her a Good bye/Good luck card.  As it has “wings” I am linking up to the current challenge at Uniko Studios here.

Here is my card.

I used Uniko English Country Garden stamped onto vellum and coloured with Tim Holtz and SU markers. The die cut strip is from Kaisercraft film strip. The sentiment is from PTI Mega Mixed Messages stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink.

The second card I have to share is also for Ms E’s manager. She is also expecting her first baby later in the year and as Ms E is unlikely to see her she wanted to gift her a little something. This also has “wings”.

I made the card base using Lifestyle Crafts Peppermint Page die (8cm x 8.5cm). The image from ME Just hatched is stamped onto x press it blending cardstock and coloured with alcohol markers. The sentiment if from the same set stamped in versafine onyx black ink. The co ordinating dies were used to cut the egg.

To go with this I knitted up a little pair of shoes using Patons Big Baby 4ply yarn and the garter stitch bootees pattern which came with the pack.  Sorry  I couldn’t find a link anywhere on the web!

Thanks for stopping

Cheers

Strike a pose meets an English Country Garden…

Hello

Over the weekend I got a little time in my craft room. Mainly due to our 4 games of netball being cancelled due to weather.

I am linking up to the current challenge at Uniko Studios here – things with wings

This is my card.

I started by randomly stamping the film strip image from Uniko strike a pose across some white cardstock masking as I went with post it notes. I then stamped one of the images from an English Country Garden in the film again masking as I went. I coloured the images with Tim holtz and SU Markers and used my SU blender pen. Thanks Therese for reminding me I had this! I finished off the butterflies with a little Kindy Glitz Crystalina.

Off to dance class with Miss A

I plan to be back with another couple of cards tomorrow.

Thanks for stopping

Cheers

CASing myself…

Hello

Ms 9 had a birthday party last Sunday and as you would guess none of the cards I had on hand were suitable.

She did like a butterfly card I made a little while ago so we used that as a sketch and changed the colours and altered a few things.

Here is the original card

original post can be found here

And the new one

I used Uniko English Country Garden – butterflies stamped on to vellum coloured on the reverse with markers and wink of stella on top. Other stamps used were Papersmooches Digits and PTI Little Lady.  I added a little punched vellum butterfly just before the sentiment. I popped the card front up with foam tabs this time and used a scrap of patterned paper along the edge of the card.

I am linking this up to the current challenge at Uniko anything goes

Thanks for taking a peek.

Uniko #11 – take 2

Hello

Back again with my second entry for the Uniko Challenge

I used Uniko English Country Garden – Butterflies, Classic Alphapet and Flower Power #3 to make this card. I stamped the buttefly onto vellum and coloured with alcohol markers.  The flowers from Flower power #3 are stamped in PTI Lavender Moon and Plum Pudding before adding Kindy Glitz to both the flowers and the butterfly. The sentiment was stamped in Versafine Onyx black. This is really sparkly in real life.

Tonight I am off to Werribee Zoo twilight – marshmallows, torches and warm clothes. It is great to see the nocturnal animals for a change.

Thanks for stopping by

Cheers

Vicki
