First card~
Details~
For these fabulous challenges~
(Inspired by the vase of roses and the Victorian feel.)
(I water colored my image.)
(Inspired by the colors and the simplicity of the photo.)
This card was really fun to make. I made a card front using a free digi image found HERE and then water colored it. I added some glitter glue, a sentiment from PTI's "Simply Jane" stamp set, and then some bits of bling. I LOVE IT. I think this will be one of those cards that I have a hard time giving away. I actually might frame it and put it somewhere in my home. Let's keep going!!!
Second card~
Details~
For these fabulous challenges~
I also used an old sketch from Sketchbook Saturdays~
This card was inspired by the book/movie "Little Dorrit" by Charles Dickens. There is a scene in the most recent film adaptation where a room has this luscious red and black wallpaper with a brocade pattern. Hence my brocade embossing. The sentiment is also about the two main characters in the movie--Amy Dorrit and Arthur Clennam. They are so fantastic!!! You should check this book/movie out--it's fabulous! I also used punches on this card, since it's the dessert option at Dynamic Duos. I used a border punch and my main image is made from two punches, plus the red punched leaves!!!
Third & last card~
Details~
For these fabulous challenges~
(I've used a brand new to me digi from ADFD!)
This card uses a brand new to me digi from ADFD! I masked off the image in order to get script only on the background of the image and then colored the peacock, added glitter and pearls, and put it on the card! There is also script on my patterned paper and lots of circles throughout this card! Here is a TIP: when you print off a page of digis onto cardstock, print another copy of it onto plain computer printing paper in case you decide you want to use masks later. You can keep these in a file folder for later use!
That's it. Thanks for stopping by! I hope you're having a fabulous day and I will see you soon! Happy stamping! :)

ReplyDeleteI just had so much fun looking at your beautiful cards! I can't say which one I like more they are all three stunning and your designs and style are just beautiful. You are inspiring to me! thanks for sharing your talents. Hugs
An absolutely gorgeous group of cards!! Love all of your details - the sparkle on the peacock is stunning. So glad to see you at Dynamic Duos - your use of the colors in each details is lovely!
ReplyDeleteHello Mynnette, what gorgeous eye candy, I came to check out your Simply Stampin' vintage challenge entry and got a two card bonus added on!
ReplyDeleteI love all three of them! Have you EVER made a duff card?! I bet not!
A BBC TV adaptation of Little Dorrit was on in the UK a few years back and I LOVED it! It was one of those series where you feel bereft when the series ends, it was THAT good! Imagine my total shock when I was grocery shopping and I saw the actress who played Mrs Clennam in the fruit and veg aisle - I just HAD to tell her how much I loved the series! She was so sweet and charming!
Hope to see you again at Simply Stampin'!
