Bundle of cards- Just Inklined, Delicious Doodles, Magnolia, Sylvia Zet Whimsy,

Hi there! Thanks for stopping by :-) My apologies again for my absence- I wouldn't have thought a new baby could make the days so much shorter :-) So I thought I would upload a few pic of some cards I have done at once :-)

Below is a golden Retriever image by Just Inklined.  It was made for a customer who wanted a white only card.  I needed to add a little copper colour to define the image, but mainly kept to white. I embossed plain white card and used white flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts.  Die cuts are Spellbinders, Tim Holtz, Magnolia and Joy Crafts. The little dangle charm is handmade.

Below is an image by Delicious Doodles called spitfire.  I needed no colour for this image and kept the card quiet neutral for a man.  dies used are from Heartfelt Creations and Cheery Lynn. The layers and printed paper is from a Prima pad - Engraver collection.  I stained up some muslin cloth with distress inks and used charms from ebay and Nini's Things from facebook  

Below is Tilda with many hearts. I used Desert Sand ink by memento to create a no lines effect.  I used dies from Magnolia, La La Lands, Joy Crafts and Tim Holtz.  DP is Kaiser Craft pad called Lavender Haze. Flowers are Wild Orchid Crafts and charm is from Nini's Things. Sorry I did not keep copic colours.

Top Tip Tuesday Guest Designer male card Spitfire Delicious Doodles

Good morning! Thanks for stopping by.  I was lucky to be picked as Top Tipper over at Top Tip Tuesday a few weeks ago, and was asked to be guest designer for their challenge this week.  The challenge is to use metal faux or real! So I have used some metal charms and wait for it... I have a done a male card. I KNOW! shock horror lol!!! I have used "spitfire" from Delicious Doodles, and didnt have to colour it at all- super simple!  The sentiment is a combination using a Popcorn bear sentiment and a Whimsy notables 2 outer frame stamp and cut with the notables 2 die. I used DP from two Prima pads- called "Cartographer"  and "engraver".  Die cuts are using magnolia swirl die, Cheery Lynn Gears die and Heartfelt Creations Layered Elegant Swirl die.  The charms are from Nini's Things on facebook. 

Here's my top tip for the challenge: When distressing edges of your cardstock, ink the edges and distress whilst still wet.  Place the edge of what you are going to distress onto your table leaving about 1cm hanging over the edge of your table. Working from the centre of your cardstock and out to the corner, distress using your distressing tool. This way, your corners stay intact, and your paper will not get creases in it. The slight wetness left by the ink helps it “puff”up.

So now its your turn.... Pop over to Top Tip Tuesday and show us your metal! and while you're there, why not leave a tip to help us all craft a little easier and you could be the next Guest Designer?!

Thanks for stopping by. Stay Safe XOX Tania
