Crafty Catz DT - Black, White + 1

Good Morning!

 

Another Friday is here and another challenge at Crafty Catz. Thanks to everyone who joined in with my challenge last week. This weeks theme has been set by Nina who would like you to make cards or projects using the colours Black, White and One other of your choice.

 

We are sponsored this week by Mia Flowers and Delicious Doodle.

£20 Voucher or £20 of goodies 

 

4 images of winners choice

 

We were given images by Delicious Doodles this week and here's my creation:

I printed the image as it was twice, the first I cut out with my circle die, removing some of the image, so I cut and layered the flowers back onto the base. I then covered the whole thing with embossing ink and glitter powder and double embossed it. The base card is covered with fleur de lys paper I got free with a craft magazine, edged with green chalk ink. I added the black and white ribbon with double sided tape either end and made a double bow. I mounted the iris image on foam pads (black, which I discovered afterwards you could see so I've now replaced them with white) and that finished the card.

 

Hope you like it. Don't forget to swing by and see the other creations by the girls at Crafty Catz and join in the fun!

 

Until next time, Happy Crafting

Crafty Catz DT - Monochrome

Happy Friday one and all!

 

Am I ever glad its the end of the week - it's been a bad one I have to say - but the weekend brings a break and fresh starts next week!

 

Enough of my rambling, it's time to get on with this weeks challenge card for Crafty Catz. This weeks theme has been set by me and it's Monochrome. Remember, monochrome is shades of any colour - not just black and white.

 

We are sponsored this week by  Delicious Doodles, who are offering our lucky winner 4 images of their choice

On with the card then:

 

We were given this lovely image to play with but it was originally in black and white, so I tweaked it somewhat on the computer to get to a sepia brown feel and then layered it all up. The papers are from All Aboard and Wellington 6x6 paper packs, I cut the calendar sections out from another sheet of paper. The ribbon is from stash as are the pips.

 

I hope you like it - I tried to give it an old world vintage feel that was still suitable for a guy.

 

Anyway, thanks for dropping by and until next time - happy crafting!
