Rose by The Paper Shelter Digital Stamps

Hi friends!  I hope you are all well.  Two weeks ago, northern United States experienced a dangerous arctic blast.  I nearly fell out of my bed when I woke up one morning, checked my phone, and saw that the temperature was -20 degrees.  Yikes!  Luckily, the temperatures warmed up considerably.

This week's theme on The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog is: 

LACE and/or FLOWERS

These are two of my favourite embellishments and so I included both on my card.  I used the gorgeous Rose image by The Paper Shelter Digital Stamps.


I used Copic markers to colour this beauty.  The lace was originally white but I dyed it yellow with Glimmer Mist by Tattered Angels.  The flowers are handmade.

If you would like to see more inspiration by the other Design Team members, please visit The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog.  While there, how about joining in the fun?  There are some wonderful prizes to be won.


Thank you for visiting.  Have a lovely day.  Hugs, Lori xx

Autumn Harvest by Ching-Chou Kuik

Greetings friends! Today I am sharing my Design Team card for Ching-Chou Kuik's new monthly Facebook challenge.  
This month's theme is "Autumn or Fall or Autumn Colours".  This beautiful image is "Autumn Harvest", found here:


As usual, I coloured the image with Copic markers and Polychromos pencils.  The lace was originally white but I dyed it with Glimmer Mist, and added the tiny gems.  The sunflower is handmade.  I added Flower Soft to the center of the flower.  I love adding clear Wink of Stella to wings because it leaves behind such a lovely and delicate shimmer.

Angel Wishes by Conie Fong

Hello, crafty friends!  This month's Facebook theme over at Conie Fong's Art and Design Group is "Always Anything Goes" with an option of  "Anything But a Card". 
  https://www.facebook.com/groups/396730687168777/
This is my DT inspirational project:


I started off with the cute wooden box that houses Brie cheese by President:

I coated the entire box with gesso.  Then, I painted it with purple acrylic paint.  Finally, I applied Mod Podge (matte finish) all over it to seal it.

I used the darling "Angel Wishes" image by Conie Fong, found here in her etsy shop:
I coloured this beautiful image with Copics and FC Polychromos pencils.  I glued the patterned paper, the image and the frames onto the box and applied Mod Podge over them. 

I wanted the lace (which was white) to match so I dyed it purple with Glimmer Mist, and glued it around the box.  I lined the insides of the box (top and bottom) with white felt. Lastly, I added the flowers and other embellishments and, voila, my finished box!
Here are some other views:
  


I had so much fun creating this altered box.  Hope you have a lovely day.  Hugs, Lori xx 

Materials and Tools Used 

Frame:     Spellbinders "Label 18" dies
Flourish:  Cheery Lynn "Fanciful Flourish" die (small)
Flowers:   EK Success "Gardenia" punch, Fiskars punch (small)

Gesso, Mod Podge, lace, floss, gems, prills, Glimmer Mist, acrylic paint and felt are from my stash.
