Krafty Karen's challenge

As you all know, Karen has reach 100 followers on her blog and has decided to celebrate by doing a challenge.

I am proud to be one of her follower and therefore have decided to participate to the challenge. The challenge is Be inspired by your most Favourite Creation. I have decided to use the card I made for Valentin this year.
I am very proud of that card. It is the first card, I made without any help. I saw a card similar on one of the girls from Crafters companion, and have decided to try one. BUT I don't have any Die Cut machine so have made it with "The Glitter Girls" board.

Karen, ask us to create a new card, so I have done this one.


I have used the same old way...Hand cutting....Lol!!!

For the image, I have used one of the TLC Digi Stamp, from the serie "be the....". As it is spring, I have decided to use "be the Sun". I have coloured the sun with
Promarker  "Pastel Yellow"
Sakura Permopaque Fine Point "Yellow" and
Chalks Bright "Yellow" and "Orange".

I have printed the sentence on a yellow paper, to remember the Sun.

I had as much fun, as I had when I made the first one....But will still be over the moon when I can buy a Die Cut machine....Lol....



Cards made with Live crafting idea

Good evening to all of you.

I made a few cards, this afternoon and in the past days, but have been so busy....That I never find time to post it. As I made a few more today, I have decided to post them all here tonight.
Those two are cards, I made for two friend who have their birthday. The man's one is for a hunter friend which birthday was today. And the one with the Mouse, is for my friend's birthday on Tuesday.

I have used the idea of last wednesday Live crafting on Crafters Companions, which I really enjoy. I made the one for the man with a car as we offer him a day where he will be able to drive a Ferrarri and a porsche. The other one, just because I find it cute and my friend, even if she is an "old" woman, has got a good sense of humour. Bet she will love it.

Here are the two Live crafting I made.
This one is the "original" version I made on wednesday night.

And here is the Live crafting from 23rd March, that I forget to post....
And to finish with the few cards I made, here are a few birthday cards, just "in case" and a card I made to try my swalk and my new Promarkers I bought at the NEC.




That's all for tonight. Hope you'll like them as much as I have enjoyed making them...

Am back to challenge....

Hi from a very grey France today. After being away from challenges for a while as I have been busy trying to "sort" out Danish clients, which is not sorted....and been to England for a few holidays and to the NEC, I have decided to come back into "life" and join challenges.

The first one I choose today is The Alphabet Challenge, where subject is U for Up in the air.

I made this card yesterday afternoon using some Dufex and the Live Crafting from Crafters Companions model from a few weeks ago. I have changed the measurement as I like small cards, but I like the shape of the card that much that I keep using it for diffent occasions and in different colours....

I also took a chance and put my name down with Tha Alphabet Challenge to be one of their DT.

Hope you like the card as much as I have enjoyed making it.

Crafters companion challenge.

As it was Valentin,and a lot of challenges refer to it,  I have decided to make a card for Dave that can also be used in a challenge. Have looked "around" and get inspiration from Anne (Crafters Companion) and from another card I saw on a blog (but can't rememnber where....)

So I have decided to give it a go and try, on my own, for the first time an easel card. But I don't have, yet, any fancy tool. Therefore I have used the "glitter girls" board with hart. It took me a bit of time to understand how to make an easel card, but now that I have done, I am very proud of myself.  I have used a few of freebie's stamps, different texture papers nd of course different sizes of harts....

Here is my "baby"....




I also put my card in :
Little Claire's Design, which theme is "Anything goes"
Gingerloft Challenge which theme is "The color Red"
2 sisters challenge which theme is "Hart"
All sorts challenge
Fun with shapes and more
