ATSM #292: Make Your Mark

Hello again, friends! Time for another challenge over at Addicted To Stamps and More. This week we are playing Make Your Mark. For this challenge, you can create anything you like as long as you use something to make a mark. Feel free to use pencils, pens, markers, chalks, crayons, paints, stains, inks ... whatever takes your fancy.

Here's my offering for this challenge. A simple card using MFT set called Adventure Is Calling". I coloured her with Copics.

Now it's your turn to link up your project for the Make Your Mark challenge. There are so many colouring media to choose from. I look forward to seeing your projects.

Thank you so much for stopping by and have fun with this challenge.

Beijinhos!

ATSM #290: Photo Inspiration

Hello again, friends! Time for another challenge over at Addicted To Stamps and More. This week the theme is Photo Inspiration. All you have to do is create a project inspired by this lovely photo. You can pick the colours, elements, textures etc. There's no right or wrong answer.

I decided to go with the flowers as my focal point together with the soft colours and produced a feminine birthday card. The floral stamps are from Altenew's Vintage Roses set and the greeting is by Clearly Besotted.

I cut the white picket fence using Lawn Fawn's die and finished the project with white pearl drops by Ranger.

Now it's your turn to link up your project to the Photo Inspiration challenge. Don't forget to let us know what elements from the photo inspired you.

Thanks for stopping by and have fun with this challenge.

MHKD: Thank You Blog Hop

Hello friends!

It's the first of the month which would usually mean it's time for a new challenge at MHKDesigns, and also for a new set release. But sadly, as Mynn, the very talented owner of MHKDesigns and card creating genius announced here yesterday, she has made the very tough decision to close the blog (the Etsy store will remain open for the time being at least, but nothing new will be added to it) to focus on what's important to her, her life as a teacher.

And because most of us already had our cards created for today, we've decided to instead make it a blog hop to say thank you to Mynn for all she's done for us.  

My offering for this challenge is a simple card featuring a sentiment from the brand new Majestic Medallion and an image from Sentimental Lily.

Mynn, on behalf of all of us—designers and participants—thank you so very much for sharing your unique talent with us. And we wish you all the best in your vocation. We know you will be an awesome teaher.... you already are!

Beijinhos,

ATSM #288: Holiday

Hello again, friends! Time for another challenge over at Addicted To Stamps and More. This week the theme is my favourite - Holiday.

Here's a Christmas card featuring products by Lawn Fawn:

• the image is from Winter Fox stamp set, coloured with Faber Castell Polychromos and cut with coordinating die;
• the tag is cut with Stitched Circle Tags die;
• the paper is from Perfectly Plaid 6x6;
• Candy Corn Single Cord for the bow on the tag; and
• the largest die from Small Stitched Square dies.

So now it's your turn to link up your project for the Holiday Challenge. It can be any holiday - Christmas, Easter, Thanksgiving, Valentine's Day etc.

Thanks for stopping by and have fun with this challenge. 

Beijinhos!

ATSM #286: Anything Goes
