Cardz 4 Galz # 213 - Cityscape

Image
Hi Friends,  Welcome to another Cardz 4 Galz challenge Design Team entry.   Today's challenge theme is Cityscape. I have to admit when this theme came up, I thought I had won the jackpot :-)  I had been waiting to do the liver buildings on a card for months, but it kept going to the ever-growing back of the list - because I didn't have anyone to give it to. But here it is:)  If you are not familiar with the Liver buildings in Liverpool, UK - here is a brief description  and all the folklore around them. Below is the original Liver Building that I based my card off. I hope you like it, and as always - don't forget to pop over to  Cardz 4 Galz  and share your entry with us, as we love seeing them.

Lest We Forget - Remembrance Tag

Image
Hello Friends,  Today, I have teamed up with Whimsical Digi Art to bring you this beautiful Remembrance Sunday journal Tag. For the background, I blended Lost Light, Hickory Smoke, and Black Soot. I dried the tag then sprayed them with Decayed and Empty Tomb and heat dried the tag again. I heat embossed a poppy in copper and stamped some script text in black. I wanted something at the bottom right, so I heat embossed some barbed wire in silver, so that it would not detract from the image. This image of the boots came in black and white, I coloured them in brown using alcohol markers and used red for the poppies. Finally I stamped a Lest We Forget sentiment, and distressed it with Hickory Smoke, to make it pop out. Whimsical Digi Art has some stunning designs, in both black and white images or pre-coloured. Why not check out some of her designs on Instagram? Why not head over to the website and have a look for yourself. https://www.whimsicaldigiart.ca/ For 25% off use the code PRETTYSH

Inspiration Station #55 - November

Image
Hello Friends,  Welcome to another Inspiration Station Challenge Design Team Entry.  This month's entry is inspired by the photo: Isn't that photograph amazing?  Look at those autumnal colours!!! I love autumn, the colours and the crispy sounds that leaves make underfoot.  I took my inspiration from the amazing colours of autumn and used them when I designed this card. How cute do the pumpkins look when they have been decoupaged?  It was so simple to cut out the pumpkins, and then I popped them on some foam tape to give them some dimension.  I am really pleased with how this card turned out.  I hope you like it.  If you have been inspired by the photo, why not pop over to  Inspiration Station  and show us your creations.
