photo inspiration #26

This week's challenge at the Opus Gluei is to use the picture below as an inspiration for the project...I chose the colours and the beachy feel of the wood on the paper for my inspiration ...hope you feel inspired to join us this week.

one layer wonder #25

This week's challenge at Shopping our Stash is to do a one layer card...this one was lots of fun (I am not normally a one layer kind of girl), but I got to use embossing powders, water colours and all different sprays...combined many different techniques to make up for the lack of paper

play along with us, will you?

fantastic plastic #24

This week's challenge at Shopping our Stash is to use plastic...I used a few forms on this card that I am giving to my niece for her birthday - I made a shaker card filled with plastic glitter, fun foam to make the pig and a googly eye for fun...play along with us, will you?

All you need is love #23

This week's challenge at the Opus Gluei is Valentine's day - 'tis the season for love and this is my lovey dove card for the day...I like the colour scheme for this one as it is not a traditional valentine, but it still works and has a "bit" of masculinity to it....play along with us, will you?

shaped cards #20 - #22

This week's challenge at Shopping our Stash is to make a shaped card...move away from the ordinary square or rectangle and shape it up a little...I am getting a jump start on Christmas and got a few stair shaped cards done.  Play along, will you?

dreaming of something warm #19

This week's challenge at Shopping our Stash is to dream of something warm...you can use fire or hot drinks or beach or bathtubs...anything that makes you forget winter and feel warm and cozy...I chose the beach...we are not doing a winter vacation this year as we are doing a once in lifetime (for us anyway) family European vacation and cruise this summer, so the longed for winter vacation is a bust this year...worth it for the summer one though...so I am really dreaming.  Play along, will you?
