Out of Africa

Good Afternoon, my card to share today is for the challenge at My Time to Craft - Wild Life Reserve and is for my BIL's 70th birthday later this month.  The image is made up from Judikins Postage Stamp and Judikins African Cube.  I coloured the image with Colour Box Chalk Inks, using direct to paper technique, this was quite easy and the inks pads are years old and almost dried up.  The textured cs came from my stash, the bp is Sunny Christmas from Stitchy Bear, the numbers are from a Cuttlebug Alphabet, the sentiment is computer generated and I finished off with some Card Candy

Thank you so much for visiting and for the lovely comments you leave

Sketch and Stash

Today's card is for Sketch and Stash No.6. The stamp is new from a DesignHouse unmounted plate and I have watercoloured using Lyras. The cs is from a new pack of Papermani 12x12 and the paper is from an older Papermania 12x12 set that I have had for about two years. The flowers and brad come from my craft box. The colouring around the edge was done with Colorbox Chalk Wisteria. I actually made a mistake while going around the edge of the image the ink pad slipped, so instead of throwing it away I increased the depth and intensity to cover it up. Thank you for visiting my blog and if you would like to leave a comment please do. I appreciate every single one. Beryl x
