Worldwide Crafters & Colourists Challenge - #3

 Hi there again,

Back this time to share with you my DT inspiration for Worldwide Crafters & Colourists. Our challenge has now gone live. Our theme as always is 'Anything Goes' and runs from 15th Mar to the 12th Apr. We hope that can join us to see and follow our DT creations and obviously for you to share your fab makes with us. Our lovely sponsor is the very talented Julia Spiri. For this project I chose this wonderful Steampunk image called Tessa. Here is what I created using her...

For this I chose to use this very apt gold foiled kraft card as my base. I folded in half an A4 card sheet to create an A5 card. The image I printed on to watercolour card and coloured with Hunkydory Prism Craft Markers, then using a tag shape die, I cut it out. I stencilled round the edges using die cut cogs and Prism Ink, also adding some gold gilding wax too. I then layered this on to another die cut tag and placed as shown. To decorate I added die cut flowers and foliage, sentiment die cut along with pearl gems too.

Butterfly Botanica Collection by Hunkydory Crafts

 Hi there

I can honestly say that have been eagerly waiting to be able to share with you that I was lucky enough to have been accepted as part of the Hunkydory Crafts design team. To say that I was over the moon is an under statement. I'm absolutely thrilled to bits to be part of this fantastic team and hope that I do them justice! I have loved their products for some time now, as you may have noticed from my previous projects. 

Today I am sharing with you my first set of design team samples for the new Butterfly Botanica Collection which launched today on Hobbymaker TV.  I really enjoyed creating these, but obviously was a tad bit nervous too, as it has been a while since I last created samples for TV...
