Addicted to Stamps and More challenge #40 - Photo inspiration


Hi everyone, this week's challenge at Addicted to Stamps and More is Photo inspiration. 

Our sponsor is Heather Ellis who is offering a lovely prize to our Top Addict. 



I have to admit to ahem, finding it quite difficult to make a card using photo inspiration. Here's my DT card which I made one step at a time. When using photo inspiration, we can choose one or more elements of the photo, for example the chair, sea, hat, drink, or a colour or colours. I began by stamping a chair twice, once on DP to paper piece it and then added the other elements one by one to create the scene. All stamps by Lindsay Morgan. I added colour using colour dusters and a little sponge with TH distress inks and shadows with a coloured pencil. 

Please do visit the ATSM blog and check out all the wonderful creations by the other DT members and we hope you've been inspired!

Thanks for visiting today.

Less Is More #114 and CAS(E) This Sketch


Hi everyone and welcome to new member, Olga.  It's time for a new challenge at Less Is More and this week is a colour challenge - LIME AND BLACK.

The sponsor is Clearly Besotted Stamps and I've used some stamps from their lovely range to make my card. I didn't have any Lucky Limeade so have substituted with Wild Wasabi - hope this is OK with Chrissie and Jen.

Was pondering on whether to use the dotty or the gingham ribbon, as you can see I settled for the gingham.

This card is also my second entry for CAS(E) This Sketch #22.


Thank you so much for looking! Have a nice weekend, hope the sun is shining where you are.
