Gee I really love these Sketch challenges, its so fun to be put out of your comfort zone and really expand your creativity!

Why don't you have a go with this sketch id love to see what you come up with!

 

 

This is the sketch for this week  

 

 

Iv decided this year to get in early and enjoy making my Christmas cards.
 I'm one of those people who makes heaps and heaps of Christmas cards but I always leave it until the last minuet, that is not going to happen this year!!

Here is the chrissy card I made.
 I had a bit of fun with the new delicate ornaments thinlits, these are so cute and the ideas for how to use them are endless!

 

 

 

 

The strip of DSP down the side of the card is from the English garden stack.

Iv added a hint of bling with the two gold twine and thread as well.

This card would be super easy if you had to make so many! (like me)

 

Enjoy your fathers day everyone

 

Happy Fathers day to my daddy!!

Balloon Baby

 

 

 

 

     Hello.

 Today I'm going to be sharing a cute little baby card I made for a

lovely friends baby shower!

 

 

 

 

I'm so in love with these tea doilies they just make this card so "pretty" don't you think!

 

  

 

The Celebrate Today stamp set is so super versatile here iv made the balloon into a hot air balloon but if you look below and my supply list you will see I can be made into so many different things!

What a great stamp set!

 

 

 To go along with the card this is my wrapped present made all pretty with some pinwheels!

Dads the word this week!



 

Welcome to another INKspired Sketch blog hop! 

I'm sure that Narelle has shown you all some beautiful work.

 

 Wow how the weeks are flying by and its scary to think Christmas is in the back of my mind, approaching super fast! We also have a new Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalogue coming out soon full of CHRISTMAS, so it has got me super excited!! 

 

(Ok Renee take a deep breath

and calm down!!)

 

This week however the focus is on my Dad as its his birthday today!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD!!

 

 

 

This is the sketch that wonderfully kind Teneale presented us with this week!!

 

 

 

Ok so I must admit I'm a straight lines girl or like a circle kinda girl!!!

This was a testing sketch as I just wanted to straighten all the pieces and layer it up. However I restrained and stayed true to the sketch! Yay me!!

 

 

Here is the finished product!

 

 

 

 I do really love this stamp set its so fun and super versatile.

 

I made the background by cutting the balloon shape out of a piece of scrap

paper with the Balloon framelits.

I then used it as a template and sponged in Real Red, Daffodil Delight,

Smoky Slate and Island Indigo.

I overlapped them so don't be scared to go a little crazy, as at first I was scared to overlap them but in the end it looked much better to have it a little random.

 

 

 This final picture is the inside of the card

 

 

 

Here I used both cut outs of the balloon framelits. The out side one as my main template but also the actual balloon shape to put over the balloon I previously sponged to make each image crisp and not blend each colour together with my sponge.

 

 

I hope I have given you some inspiration this blog hop.

Thanks so much for stopping by!!

However I'm going to go and enjoy some watermelon cake!

 

Have a great day and go and get some ink on those fingers!

More and more babies

Hello and welcome to another INKspired blog hop! Before me on the hop this week is Maree McIntosh and I'm sure she has something interesting to show us!

 
 

 

This Blog hop I have babies on my brain with my second sister due to pop any day and baby showers popping up here, there and everywhere ekkk!!! How exciting!!

SO with babies obviously my choice of topic this week I set out to create something fun and cute with this sketch as my guiding light!

(with thanks to Teneale Williams xx)

 

 

I didn't like this sketch to begin with however it grew on me and by the end I had created two cards! WOO HOO go me!! LOL

 

 

 

So first it was the boys!

 

 

 

I just love this large bread tag! Here I cut it out of soft sky and then pierced around the out side using the paper piercer and a template out of the eclectic paper piercing pack.

The joy and the cute little bows either side of the baby banner were cut out of brushed gold paper, isn't it just sweet.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 I love the little Toucan out of zoo babies stamped in Mint Macaron.

 

 

 

 

 

 Then its the girls turn!
With this card I turned the sketch on the side. 

The tag I cut out of blushing bride and the tea doily behind makes it so pretty for a sweet new baby.

This time I used linen thread for the bows and a very vintage button!

 
 
 

 
 

I then pierced around the out side of the card, I feel this finished the card off.

 
 

 
 
 

Thank You so much for stopping by!

INKspired Blog Hop 20

Butterfly

 

Hi all, its so nice to be back playing along with all the lovely INKspired girls!

 

Just before me is Narelle Macey

 

Well I have been away from my stampin up life for almost three months travelling  some very special parts of the world! I must admit I found it a little hard to find my stampin mojo this week, but I am so glad I played along and "jumped back on the horse".

 

This fortnight I had some very special people to make cards

for as there were birthdays here there and every where.

 

I always find it easier to create when I have some one in mind!

 

 

 

Here is the sketch we are working with this fortnight.

 

 

I played around with a few ideas but they just weren't "right" so with the new butterfly stamps I started playing!

 

Here is the card I came up with....

 

 

 

I cut the cute little butterflies out of Pool Party card using the Bold Butterfly framelits die, and I used the Butterflies thinlits die to cut the butterfly outline out of the Elegant Eggplant panel.

 

 

 

I just love how the butterflies dance off the side of the card!

 

 

 

 Elegant Eggplant, Pool Party and Crumb Cake

look so sweet together, a combination that I must say I stumbled across.

 

 

 

 

 

This week You have the chance to WIN!!!

Thanks to the amazing Teneale Willams!!
