Stepping in Almost White

A Card made for the Almost White challenge at Creative Harmony. The Base Cardstock has to be white or ivory, no more than two other colours, using very little of one of those. You are allowed to enter twice, any kind of papercrafts,  but one entry must be a card or a tag. You have until 23rd of September to enter for a chance to win the great prizes she has on offer.  

This is my first attempt at a Side Step Dresser card. I've seen them around blogland a few times and liked them, but was inspired by Bab's Baby Shower Dresser Card to give it a go- it was quick, easy and a lot of fun. I followed the YouTube Tutorial to make this, you can find it HERE

 She also has some great pictures of the Sock Monkey Baby Shower they held, and a Diaper Bike (new to me), if anyone looking for Baby Shower inspiration.

Sorry the pix aren't up to much again, above is photo Hubby took, the two below are scanned. I used pearlized white cardstock, I think, Bazzil. The 'hanger', 'door handles', and name plaque are chipboard pieces (Papermania) coloured with versamagic chalk inks. I've used a headpin with pearl bead as the wire for the 'hanger'. The pink card is recycled from the back of an old card, is pretty shimmery, pearled. The lace and bow are stash and the stickers were painted white with acrylic paint.

Adding Sunshine to My day.

This fun card is made for the Chalk N Stock #3 Challenge, Bingo. My paper is from the Mystery Pack I had from Sarah Wright Designs. I chalked all around the edges to distress it a little, and also chalked the white card behind my digi's. I merged the Sun digi and sentiment in PaintNet. I coloured Image with promarkers, and Lyra pencils, and outlined my cardstock with promarker too. My stickers, ribbon and buttons are stash. My digi's are a special set was created for Jennifer Scull who is battling cancer. All proceeds from the set will go directly to Jen's family. I know she'd be pleased if you popped over and gave her some some, she's a lovely and  inspirational lady.

And here is the other couple of cards I had fun making with it. 

Forget you're ill

A get well card for a five year old with chicken pox, poor boy. I'm hoping this will cheer him up a little, he likes cars. The image is Mo's, and he didn't originally have curly hair, so hope Mo doesn't mind me taking liberties with my colouring pencils. It means he's ended up with big hair, hope his mom likes the 80's look lol. 

He's coloured mostly with ProMarkers, but Lyca pencils for the hair and the bumper and go faster stripe. I tired to make them look metalic as per the tutorial on Dorcas' Blog. I only had the dark & light cool grey so had to do my best with those. I'm not too displeased, but want my greys to do it properly lol. 

My greeting is stamped, using a frame stamp and separate get well. They are both stamped in versamagic chalk, and the card outlined in the same chalk. 

My cardstock is from the £10 Mystery Parcel I received from Sarah Wright today. It's a lovely pearl, shiny and embossed. The Mystery Parcel is well worth the money, I had beautiful double sided patterned A4 cardstock, A4, A5 & 8x8 double sided papers....all lovely. Stamp sets, rub on, sticker, including 3d Stickers, ribbon, raffia, velvet rik-rak. I am so pleased with everything.....such a lot of fun to unpack it all.

I won Honorable Mention with Chalk & Stock Heyyyy!!

Get well Hugs

I adore this image by Delicious Doodles, it's one of four images I won a while ago on ATC & Cards with  Attitude. I did a little shading with  Promarkers in Warm Grey 3 and Arctic blue, and shaded all the way round with blue chalk ink from Versamagic. It's mounted on silver board, it's the lid of one of those foil food containers you can buy (not previously used). My blue lace and blue stick on pearls are part of Candy I won on Jennifer's Blog  she's quite poorly these days and I'm sure she'd appreciate you popping by to show her some love.

Chalk N  Stock Challenge - Get Well 

I've been shopping my stash recently to make some quick cards. All these cards are pre-printed and I've had them quite a number of years, and also all the die cuts, must be at least five. I love this little teddy, and he's a lot of fun to colour - using lyra pencils. His background is a piece of card that I used to soak up extra ink when I was playing with making some backings - waste not - want not and all that lol. I've edged around with versamagic chalk, but think I went overboard.

My wedding cards were fun, I stamped the die-cuts using versamagic chalk inks again, these are so versatile, and blend together beautifully too. 

 The diecut on this one is gold, and stamped on with stazon ink.
