Metallica



The theme on My Time To Craft this week is Metallica. I made my card using a metallic blue card, and embossed a strip of silver mirri with my Cuttlebug folder to put along the edge. I then stamped and embossed a flower stamp in silver, and matted it onto silver mirri and used a metallic blue dragonfly brad to finish. I made a couple of extra cards while I had the stamp out!

We Are Three!


The April challenge for Florries Monthly ATC challenge on Craft Swap Forum is We are Three, to celebrate the forum's 3rd birthday. However, I decided to think outside the box a little bit and used my House Mouse Sitting in the Rain stamp for this one, leaving off one little mouse as there are actually 4 on the stamp!

Holly


This LO is for a challenge on UKScrappers. We had to feature 'Edges', so I used a Bazzill Just the Edge strip, doodled stitches round edges and used my scallop blade to edge the matted photo of our lovely Holly!

Poppies




I felt like making a simple card today, and wanted to enter the fab competition at Charmed Cards and Craft to win a set of Copics which ends in a few days, so used my lovely new foam Poppy stamp and watercoloured it in with a Marvy Le Plume and Adirondack Lettuce ink pad, which I stamped the flower with first. I matted it onto a tall card, Funky Fairys Feeling Fruity green paper being a perfect match for the Lettuce ink (link on right side bar to FF) and added some black Stickles for the centres of the poppies and some gems and a brad to finish.
