Happy Birthday

Today I have a card for the sketch challenge at CAS Colours & Sketches #218

I have used  Hero Arts image which I coloured with Lyra pencil and then fussy cut.  I gave the balloon a touch of  Wink of Stella.  A small Lawn Fawn Stiched rectangle was cut and an Annabelle Stamps sentiment was stamped on it and and one corner was lightly sponged with Distress Ink.  The mouse image was adhered to the rectangle with foam tape.  A Technique Tuesday daisy die was added to the panel and the rectangle was added to the panel with foam tape.  All was added to the card base again with foam tape.  Then horror! I noticed a smudge so I added three Clear Droplets.

Curve

The Less is More Challenge #323 is a onlayer card and the cue is Curve.  Will also join Simon Says Happy Birthday Challenge

For this card I masked off the balloon and sponged three different Distress Ink blues to give a bit of shading. The pattern is a DarkRoom Door stamp heat embossed using Hero Arts clear embossing powder.  The sentiment is a Hero Arts stamp .  I used a black Tombow to draw the string.

Alphabet Birthday

Today I have a post for Less is More challenge #314 - ALPHABET

I used a very old unlabelled alphabet stamp set and randomly stamped individual pieces of the set in varying Simon Says Stamp colours.  I would never  have attempted this prior to purchasing a Misti.  I used a Winnie & Walter die cut for the happy and heat embossed the Hero Arts sentiment.

I hope you all have a lovely weekend

Boat Shaped Card.

This weekend has been very pleasant.  On Friday night I went to see Miriam Margolyes in her one-woman tour-de- force, Dickens' Women.  Not only did I learn about Charles Dickens but also how he drew some of his characters from real life.  Ms Margolyes brought each character to life simply with a change of voice or a change of expression.  I enjoyed it immensley

This afternoon I went to see The Artist.  I have been looking forward to seeing this film and it lived up to my expectations.  A lovely film, quite clever and a sweet love story.  No wonder it won five Oscars.

Now for this weekends card.  I didn't do so well with the cards.  I made three different cards but only liked one, the one below.

Supplies: Pattern - The Cutting Cafe, Sail Boat; Paper - My Minds Eye, Red Pin Stripe and Kaiser Periwinkle; Card - Bazzil; Sentiment - Fern Gully Stamps; Buttons - Francheville; Brads - unknown

I am entering this in two challenges -
Celebrate The Occasion, #53 Birthday (shape card)
Our Creative Corner, Tic Tac Toe Challenge.  I used Brads, button and Blue
