Silhouette Challenges #30 & 2 Creative Chicks Showcase #3

Welcome to My Crafting Channel

It't time for our new Monthly Challenge over at
Silhouette Challenges
&
2 Creative Chicks

For the 2 Creative Chicks Showcase I created a watercolor card. I made this card for a dear friend to let her know how much I appreciate all she has done for me. I know my coloring still has a long way to go but I'm having fun learning.

I stamped the one of the Betsy Bluebell stamps on  Ranger Distress Watercolor Cardstock. Used the Kuretake Fude Real Brush Pen, Clean Color pens to color in the stamp.

From the My Creative Time Dies (4x4 Journal Die + More) I used the large die to cut the colored image out.  I cut the word thanks from the My Creative Time Happy Thoughts Stamp Set.

Then added Wink of Stella Clear Glitter to the word thanks, dark blue parts of her dress, the butterflies and the middle of the flowers.

The card as well and the front and inside layers were cut using the Silhouette. The flowers on the inside were some embellishments the receiver of this card sent me.

For the Silhouette Challenges I made this fall card. I followed a Sketch for a challenge over at  Papertake Weekly Challenge.


I created a card base and then created the layers and banners by flood filling them with Digi papers.

The sentiments Hello Hey Hi by Karla Dudley and'A Thankful Heart is a Happy Heart' phrase by Lori Whitlock was also printed on the layers at the time of printing for the front and inside.

The Scarecrow Girl Fall Autumn PNC by Stinkin Cute Paper Piecings was cut 3 times and layered so she would pop up a little.

The Fall Leaves by Lori Whitlock were sized at 2 sizes for the front and inside of the card. The ones on the front were glued under the scarecrow girl and the the ones on the inside were glued to the bottom right corner.

I added some Wink of Stella Clear Glitter to the leave and parts of the scarecrow girl.
