Crafts Galore Encore Challenge #86 - Anything Goes - Sponsor Babycakes Digis and Designs

 Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

Well here we are at the beginning of April. The new challenge at the Crafts Galore Encore Challenge blog starts today. The theme is Anything Goes and the sponsor is Babycakes Digis and Designs. 

The backing paper came from my stash. I have had the die set I used for a long time and not used. I also used Distress oxides to colour the paper and I put some through a stencil.

There are some wonderful images in the store. Click on the logo and you will be taken there. 

The image I used is called Owl was Reading and is available HERE. I printed them onto Neenah card stock and them coloured them with my Faber Castell Polychromo pencils. I fussy cut the owls and added Glossy Accents to the glasses on both.  

The sentiment was cut with the John Next Door Stencil sentiments dies. 

Have a good weekend. 

Happy crafting

Poppy Heads and another Shutter Card

Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

I hope that you had a good weekend. The weather here was horrible so lots of jobs were done indoors. The bunny hutch is now in the garage. There is still a lot to do to the make the room how I would like it.

Here are another couple of my samples for the John Next Door range using the Poppy Head dies and the Shutter Card die set. 

I used the Shutter Card die set to make this card. I also got involved with Sticky Sheets and Gilding flakes. At the back of the card I made a stamp with one of the poppy head dies. I stamped it with sticky ink and heat embossed it with a sparkly powder. You can hardly see that detail but it is there. 

I was careful when I cut the poppy heads from the sheet I had covered in Gilding flakes. This meant I could use the waste sheet to make another care. 

Here are both of the cards together. I did have fun using these dies. 

Happy Crafting
