Sunny day

Well, the 17th October and we have a brilliant blue sky and sunshine, how lovely for this time of year, and very welcome after the last few days of cloud, wind and rain.  I'm just adding a few of my recent card makes, hope you like them.

This one was made using Creata decoupage, and an EK Success punch to cut out the flower borders.

 
This one was made from a Debbi Moore magazine (free gift from C & C).
 
 
This one was made using various Design House images from a Making Cards magazine, I heat embossed each one using clear embossing powder.
 
 
This one was made using the free gift of a reindeer stencil and paper pack from Card Making and Papercraft magazine.

Creata Challenge - Anything but a Card

I had to have a think about what to do for this challenge, and I came up with a wall hanger, decorated with Creata Flower Forming flowers and butterflies.  I'd bought the sheets but hadn't got around to having a go so this was the perfect time to try it out.  I am quite pleased as it's my first effort.  I also added some little Creata cats faces (I am a cat lady !), and some feathers and gems, with a loop of ribbon to finish off.  I've hung it up in my craft room.




Items used
 
Creata Flower/Butterfly Forming sheets
Creata decoupage cats faces
Feathers
Gems
Ribbon and hoop for base
 
 
I was really impressed with the shine that appears on the flowers, leaves and butterflies, and took some close ups to emphasise how lovely they look.


 
I hope you like them, here's the link to the challenge http://creatachallenge.blogspot.co.uk/
