Happy Fathers Day

 

Welcome to our June challenge, Anything Goes.  

This month we do not have an official sponsor, but we are still offering a challenge prize.  One of our Divas won a $25 gift card to Whimsy Stamps and wishes to pass it on.

Remember to use die cuts and/or dry embossing in your creation process.

Here is my project-

 

 

I'll bet you're asking why I would make an oven card for Fathers Day. Well, my FIL was a baker for over 40 years, and can bake some of the best stuff you'll ever eat! For more information on the material list for this card, please visit me here.

 

Make sure to enter for a chance at that prize! 

House Ornaments

The challenge at Die Cut Divas is sponsored by Dies R Us for July.  The challenge is anything but a card.  And the prize is a $10 Voucher.

   $10 Voucher Prize!!!

Here is my project:

I made these for my nieces to remember their pets by. Anna still has her collie, but Amanda just lost her pet bunny, Pez. These can be used as decorations, or ornaments on their Christmas trees. Lots of dies used on these!

For more information on this project, you can visit me at Just A Nutter Paper Crafter.

Poinsettia Tag

Hi  Dawn T here.

I have a tag for you today.  Although my die is from Sizzix there are lots of great flower cards over at DiesRUs that would work.

I distressed by petals with a 3D flower mold from Heartfelt Creations

Dawn here today to share my card for this month's challenge - Animal

Here's my card

 

I've used stamps and dies from Tim Holtz for my card,  a sentiment from Catherine Pooler Designs and the speech bubble die cut is from Penny Black.  I did some selected die cutting to make the speech bubble longer to cover the sentiment. The background is a Tim Holtz embossing folder.

A Cupcake Christmas

Hi there.  Dawn back to share my Glittery Cupcake Christmas card.   I've made a slightly smaller shaped card today....

Our monthly sponsors are

 

Here is my card

 My image is a Bugaboo digital stamp - Christmas Cupcake Mistletoe. I printed it onto some Bristol paper and coloured with Tim Holtz distress markers.   Added some glitter, Spectrum Noir sparkle pen and some glossy accents before fussy cutting it.  My background is some watercolour tags, cut with an older Tim Holtz/Sizzix die (no available at DiesRUs but there are lots of amazing dies there to choose from) and trimmed the sides off.  I added some sparkle and shimmer with Sparkle Medium from Imagination Crafts in the colour Welsh Gold.  It is super sparkly.  My sentiment is a WPlus9 one, cut from some shimmer card in a pretty brown.  DiesRUs have an awesome supply of word dies for you. 

So looking forward to seeing all your glittery cards in the challenge.  You can add your card here.

A little Copics Does you GOOD!

Cogs and wheels, oh my!  An inspector comes to haunt Hot August Nights.  A TIM HOLTZ inspector...  I have to tell you I had my social Copic coloring class today.  This kind of class you have to love.  You bring what you want to color and if you are bringing something that you're having trouble with, you have the teacher there to assist you.  AND she makes lunch for us.  There were 15 people and Susan always makes a salad when it's a warm/hot day.  Salad just does not convey the meal.  This woman makes the most unusual and DELICIOUS salads I have ever had.  Today we also had sandwiches, the bread I need to write the name down because I've never had it before.  YUM!... oh, we colored too!  Since I wanted to make a card for today, I colored my man and put him together tonight.

 Doesn't he just remind you of a Sherlock Holmes?  I think this turned out quite good.  I really like coloring this on watercolor paper with Tim Holtz' Distress markers and a wet brush, but I do like the way this turned out.

A little close up - some gears from large gears from a Die-namics set (clock with hands and these gears)

Hope you like this dude, I'm liking him quite well for a neat guy card.

More of my favourite die inspiration

Hi all

I've got another card to share using the Tim Holtz Tattered Florals die.

I used some mulberry paper in two tones of purple to cut the flowers and layered them together.  I added some silver sequins and gems to the flower centres.  My background is a Spellbinders die and the purple flourishes are a Cherry Lynn die.

And the following card was one I made a while back using the same die.  This one was made with watercolour paper and scrunched up.

Quite different flowers using the same die.

And there is still lots of time to join our monthly challenge (here)

Mixed Media Canvas

Hi Dawn here, popping in to share a Mix Media Canvas I made.

The finishing of the canvas was the flower on the dress form.  It is made with organza cut with my Tim Holtz Tattered Florals die.  The centre was heated with a heat gun causing the organza to shrivel and shrink.   The leaves were cut with a Die-namics die from My Favorite Thing.

More details can be found on my blog post here.

Thanks for stopping by... just a few more days till our challenge finishes so would love to see your creations.
