Fall is here...C4C255!

Fall is here and for us it came with beautiful, sunny weather! Love this time of the year!

So for the challenge over at the CRAZIES, they ask you to use leaves on your card.

For my card, I made a background with Gelatos and then I added some alcohol ink....just to see what would happen...did I discover a new technique? I don't know, I was just playing lol. The leaves are done with a gold paper and some Impression Obsession dies, the sentiment is embossed in gold. Some simple score lines and my card was done. Hope you like  it. Have a great day, Anja

Sketch Challenge, C4C254!

It's the third Saturday of the month and that means there is a sketch challenge over at the CRAZIES.

I love sketches, they are so helpful when you wanna make a card and you don't know exactly what you are making...for me it really works, to have a sketch in front of me.

For this card I used a retired CTMH set and a sentiment from Just Rite, the stamp was inked up with markers and stamped on a script background stamp. 

Check out the other cards and maybe we can get you inspired to join us in this challenge! 

                                                  Have fun, Anja

Flower cards!

Recently I made a few flower cards with the Rubbernecker/Art impressions stamps...it was my Mom's birthday and I gave them to her. They are fun to make and not too hard, I have used distress inks, my spritzer, embossing powder and markers.....pretty basic. Hope you like them, Anja

Playing with oil pastels......

I got a box of oil pastels, it looked so good, all the colours in a shiny new box and they were really cheap....I could not resist. Had to figure out how to use them but that's where You tube and Pinterest are for. And let me tell you, they are fun! I added a stencil with distress ink and some gold glimmermist, some dies and sentiment. Love the rich colours, hope you like it too! Have a great day, Anja

Happy Belated Birthday, C4C 252

It happens to all of us....we forget someones birthday for whatever reason, so this week the challenge over at the CRAZIES is Belated Birthday. It might be a good idea to have some of those cards on hand, lol, if you are super organized! I love this Memory Box die , it cuts and embosses so nicely.

Hope you like it, please come over and check out the work of the other DT members and join us, if you can, we love to have you, till next time, Anja
