Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper June 2017 challenge

It's the 1st of the month and that means that there is a new challenge over on my Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper challenge blog.

So this is my card for Craftyhazelnut's patterned paper challenge for June 2017 using lovely pastel papers from Hot off the press (I've had these for a long, long time). This was a commissioned card. I used a couple of delicate butterflies from Hobbycraft and the lovely pink sprig of leaves made up of beads (can't remember where I got it ... ages ago and knew it would come in handy one day). The little bird was from The Works and sentiment circle from Anna Griffin.

CHNC challenge extra for June

As it's the 1st of the month, it's time for CHNC challenge extra for June 2017. Please click on the link to find out all about it, see the lovely designs of my DT ... and I hope you will get out your Christmas stash and join in the challenge - we are now getting towards halfway through the year, so it makes sense to get on with Christmas designs now before it becomes a panic.

Bugaboo Stamps always generously sponsor my CHNC challenge extra and provide images for the team to use and showcase. The image I've used is cat topper Christmas, which is pre-coloured - I mounted on to a piece of red mirror card. The background card and washi tape were from The Works and the wooden snowflakes from Sainsbury's last Christmas time.

This is my design card for Penny's challenge 331, where the theme is 'anything goes'. Please click on the link to see the lovely designs by the rest of the team and we hope you will join in with your entries.

For my card I used the lovely Sasayaki glitter image 'Lucy in the rain', kindly supplied by them as sponsor of the challenge. All papers used were from my offcuts box. The main ones are much more shiny and 'blingy' than they look in the photo. The image and the mat were cut with Spellbinder's marvelous squares dies. I used a Kanban sentiment panel, small black gems from Poundland and flowers from Hobbycraft.

I used a lovely Elisabeth Bell topper, matted with a gold circle cut on my Scan n cut from an offcut piece of pearlescent card. The background paper is Webster's pages. Punched stars were made with small offcuts of the gold pearlescent card, with added gems.

The challenge is anything goes as long as it's Christmas with the option of 'candy canes'

For my card I used part of a box that I had made and shown here. I decided it was too long to keep the box safe till Christmas, so I cut this piece off and mounted on to a piece of DCWV glittered candy canes paper.

I used the ballet shoes and one of the sayings from Sparkle n Sprinkle Ballet shoes digital set kindly supplied as a sponsor of the challenge. I mounted this on to a piece of embossed card.

Background paper and the decoupaged ballet dancer were from Jolly Nation more years ago than I can remember - I still have lots of papers and images that really ought to be used rather than being stuck away in a drawer. This was a good opportunity to use some of the stock. I love the little ballet dancer - unfortunately, the photo doesn't show the decoupaged layers.

This is my design card for Love to craft challenge 10 May anything goes - please click on the link to see the lovely crafting of the rest of the Crafty Girls team  who published mid-month inspiration and also here to see the crafting of team A and to enter our challenge.

This was a commissioned card ... the only thing I was asked to do was to include a unicorn, so I cut one out of some gold embossed paper (from old stash) using the Tattered lace USB No. 2 a little bit of everything on my Scan n cut. The background is Hunkydory card. The greeting was generated on computer, printed and cute and embossed using a todo die, with a larger one cutting the mat to match the unicorn.

CCAYR May mid-month challenge: precipitation

This is my card for Christmas cards all year round May challenge:precipitation. I'm in the Christmas Belles group so we are posting here today - please click on the link to see the lovely crafting of the rest of the Belles group. The Gingerbread gals posted at the beginning of May here - please have a look at their lovely designs and join in our challenge there.

I decided to make an acetate card, using some snowy acetate and some glittered toppers from a kit that I bought years ago. I placed identical shaped toppers behind the front ones and the same at the back of the card, so that all four sides were decorated, leaving one shape inside blank so that a personal greeting can be written if desired.

I added quite a lot of 3D glittered silver and white snowflakes (from The Works), once again putting these 'back to back' to avoid seeing bare backs!
