Got my mojo back!

Its been so long since I have crafted, most likely because of working usually 7 days a week for the past few months! I finally have weekends off, so I'm getting back into the swing of things.

This first card here is for... you guessed it, 365 Cards Tuesday Sketch.

The rest of these cards are just for my stash! I am very low on birthday cards... I am trying to remedy this! I used all new stamps - Love the Verve sentiments!

Faux Framed

Last card for this weeks challenges at 365 Cards. I wanted to complete all 7 using the last few scraps of my sacred paper, buuut it doesn't look like I'll be finishing the last 2 on time!

Anyway, this picture is a bit crappy, I took it with my phone as I'm too lazy to walk upstairs and get my camera... oh well! Challenge was to create a frame. I used (obviously) scrap paper, some Core'dinations, Prima flowers and $1 pearl bling. The frame is a cut from Once Upon a Princess, sentiment is StampingBella. Kinda cute!

Crafty Friday - Final Take

Annnd the last card of the day, this one is for the Tuesday Trio challenge at, yup, 365 Cards. Three things were to be included on this card, "Blue, Distressed and Button". Soo, voila, paper is distressed with sandpaper, buttons included, and blue - the little blue turquoise-ish gems. I used some Tim Holtz crackle paint in Tattered Rose - I love this stuff! Unfortunately it was really globby today so it doesn't look too nice, ah well! Hope everyone has a good weekend!!!!!

Crafty Friday -Take 1

I'll be making 4 separate posts today, all of them for challenges over at 365 Cards. This card is based off the sketch for sunday, found here. I'm super sad, these papers are my FAVOURITE, I think they are Sassafrass Lass, but I'm not totally certain, the line is at least 1-2 years old. I'm using up the last scraps of the 2 double sided pages I have left for all of this weeks challenges. Next time I find papers I LOVE i will buy a handful of them!!

Anyway, used my nestabilities, some fancy pants felt, misc button and bling. Paper was sanded a bit.

Last one!

Last one for today! Another 365 cards challenge. Half and half - half embossed, half sponged. I've never really used the sponge technique before, it didn't turn out very well, I only had a few chalky colours to work with so I'll have to try it again another time! Shapes are from Once Upon a Princess.
