Inksmooching

This was a very new technique for me inksmooshing!

After a quick google I worked out you put ink on your mat.

Spritz it with a little water.

Then use a piece of plastic to move the ink onto the card.

My first attempt ended up as a brown mess and was put in the bin.

This was my second attempt and I am quite pleased with how it turned out.

I then mounted it onto a piece of purple card and onto a card blank.

This card is for the following challenges:

Using Bits

Oh my goodness what a frustrating couple of weeks!

I will just say computer issues and leave it there I am sure you all understand lol.

Anyhow a card at last, I saw this idea on pininterest.

I used a scrap of white card and cut out the words on my Scan n Cut.

I then used another scrap of card to stick on lcm strips of card.

A perfect way to use up your snippets.

The striped crd was then stock directly onto the card base.

The Git was word was mounted on 3 D foam pads first.

I love the effect of this card.

Flower Power

 This card uses an image from the Chameleon colour card pack.

I then simply cut the image in to strips 

and mounted it onto a piece of card.

I then used an embossing folder on a similar bit of card.

I used a white snippet across behind the image.

 Then finished with a sentiment.

Quite a quick and simple card but I quite like it.

Signs of Spring

This card uses a lovely image from Bugaboo.

It is coloured using my Chameleon pens and then matted onto a piece of green card.

I then used a scrap bit for the background.

 I think this is the last piece from a pack I brought from QVC ages ago. 

I had a couple of bits of the glittered floral paper left so used them at the edges.

I finished it again with a sentiment from a old scrap booking kit I had brought.

Old Timer

This card uses a lovely digi  image of an old Norton bike.

I have coloured it with my chameleon pens to give it a sepia look.

All the papers used on this card are from my snippet box.

The background paper which looks like a map is actually a piece of wallpaper.

As it was not quite big enough I cut it in half and put another snippets over the gap.

Finally I had a little it of vintage postcard paper left, so I cut it into little shapes to use on the corners.

The picture was mounted on to a bit of postcard paper then a piece of yellow.
