Tuesday Colour challenge at The Outlawz.

 Hello everyone,

We are into the second half of August and a new challenge at The Outlawz Tuesday colour challenge

This time we have chosen  the colours and twist for you to use, so please come along and join in the fun....2 weeks for this challenge.


For the past year or more, I have been trying to use up my stash of card and paper and once again I was able to find something to use for this card.
I have used  green and pink card and the patterned paper also has the chosen colours.
The images are also very old stamps from Papermania and the sentiment is from Hero Arts. Added a touch of colour to the stamped butterfly.
Finished off with ribbon and a bow.



Take care, stay well and be safe. I will be back soon.

Love,   Ursula xxx

New Tuesday colour challenge

 Hello friends,

We start a new chapter at  Tuesday Colour challenge. of The Outlawz.

The theme for this challenge is Tic-tac-toe.

Use any row, either horizontal, vertical or diagonal to create your project.

 


For my card, I have used the vertical row on the right, and this is what I did.

I used the colour of the first square for my first layer of card, using Craft cardstock

The sailing boat was my inspiration from the middle square and I used a Marianne design die, coloured with Pan Pastels

The sky and sea was taken from the last square. ...for the waves I used an embossing folder coloured with Distress inks, the clouds were brushed also with distress inks.

The sentiment I used peel-offs.


If you head over to the challenge blog there are lovely cards from the DT for inspiration. We would love to see what you have to show us .

 Take care and see you all soon,

Love Ursula

Feeling Distressed

 Hello crafters,

We are in the first week of August and here in the South Africa, we are looking forward to Spring which is just around the corner.   This month at Let's Craft and Create we have another Anything Goes challenge, but have an optional theme of "Feeling Distressed" .distressing  paper, etc.



For my card, still using papers from my stash, I distressed the red paper with  tiny hearts scattered all over, appropriate for an  Anniversary card.

The white paper is a piece of handmade that I tore roughly along the edges and attached a piece of old lace rescued from somewhere.

The heart is cut from a very old Cuttlebug die and a small red heart with pearls attached.

A peeloff sentiment was added.



I will enter it in the following challenges:


A Li'l Patch of Crafty friends #186   ...Anything goes

We love to create  ...Anything goes

Elliebelle's Corner August challenge ...Anything goes

Through the Craftroom Door August challenge ...Anything goes

I do hope you will come and join in our fun challenge. The team have made gorgeous projects for inspiration and you even stand a chance of a small prize.   We would love to see what projects you come up with.

Take care, wherever you are. Stay safe and keep wearing a smile.

See you soon,    Love,    Ursula
