Butterfly Bliss

The new theme on My Time To Craft this week is Butterfly Bliss - to use butterflies on our work.  I run a house swap on a forum and the current theme is Butterflies, so for my DT work I have made one of the houses for that using Victorian Velvet and Bundled Sage Distress Inks for the  background, stamped with a PaperArtsy script stamp, and then I stamped the butterfly girl image (not sure who made it) and cut her out and stuck her on. The sentiment is Catslife Press.  Finally I punched some butterflies with my Martha Stewart punch.

F is for Flowers

We are up to F on the Alphabet Challenge blog, and this week I chose F for Flowers for the theme, so hopefully it will be a popular one!  I made these houses for a swap I host on Craft Swap Forum so am using these for my DT work too!  I used stamps from the My Cute Stamp set, Celebrate Today, available from Emily at Make The Day Special, and the word stamp is by Studio G.  I used Bundled Sage DI on the backgrounds, and stamped and cut out flowers onto pink pp.  I edged them with a Copic pen and added jewels to finish.

Easter Houses

I run a House Swap on Craft Swap Forum and the current one is Easter Houses. Here are the ones I have made for it, I used Distress Inks for the background, a Crafty Individual crackle stamp for the rooves, and a Funstamps bunny stamp which I coloured in with Copics.

Valentine Houses

Following on from the Christmas House Swap I ran on Craft Swap Forum, I am now running a Valentine House Swap. Here are the houses I have made, using Crafty Individuals stamps and Worn Lipstick and Fired Brick Distress Inks, embellishing with some lace, Primas and Liquid Pearls.

A Flower in my House

The theme on Dans Ma Maison Il y a ... is Une Fleure this week. I have used more than one! I covered my house with K & Co Hannah paper, and stamped some flowers round the edges. I added a vintage image and some Primas, ric rac, butterflies and a Tim Holtz Doodad to finish.

House of Numbers

The theme on My Time To Craft this week is Numbers.

I inked my house with Peeled Paint Distress Ink. I added a strip of tape measure paper and stamped various background stamps containing numbers. I cut out a couple of clock faces and stamped the main saying (by Paper Artsy) and added some Primas, butterflies and a brad to finish off.

Dans Ma Maison Il y a ...

The new challenge on Dans Ma Maison Il y a is - La couleur verte - which luckily is my favourite colour!! So I used Peeled Paint Distress Ink and Gold Glimmer Mist for the background, Crafty Individual and Paper Artsy stamps for the main images, and various background stamps. I embellished with Primas and brads, ribbon and a swirly piece of grungeboard which I inked and heat embossed.

Dans Ma Maison Il y a ...

I found a different challenge to have a go at, called Dans Ma Maison Il Y A .... and this week the theme is Butterfly! So I made my house, and stamped some butterflies in Versamark and clear embossed them, then rubbed over with chalk inks. I rubber over some Gold dabber and stamped some flowers and foliage around, then stuck on a butterfly scrap image and stamped some words and cut them out, and finished off with some Primas.
