Bronwyn's 21st Card

A chance to do another girly girly card for Stuart's girlfriend who is turning 21 during the week, sorry about the scan but because of the raised brad this is the best it will do. But I love those cuttlebug embossing folders and the nestablities, they make a card look really professional.

52 Card Dress Up

This month's challenge was using the set of 2's with the Medieval team, I chose to give the background a number of paint layers then stamping with a Tim Holtz stamp and a bit of stencilling with some sequent waste. Then the image and computer generated wording on transparency.

52 Dress Up Challenge

A new challenge on Paper Traders Group, each month we will be altering 4 Cards from all the suits with a particular theme eg this month was Aces and Wings. Thanks to Hemines blog http://herminesplace.wordpress.com/page/2/ I was able to use this beautiful background, which made this challenge very easy and fun to do.

The Last Skinny Page

I have finally finished this challenge, the page is of course U for Umbrella, we had to do a transfer of some kind, which for some reason I had a great deal of trouble with, it just didn't want to work out, I think I did this page about 5 times and this was the best transfer even though the umbrella is all raggy. The background is old music paper which I then gesso'd slightly and then modge podged.

M for Mailman and Mailbox

This week's challenge was to use a textured background, I choose to use the Ranger crackle paint, with a little bit of dye ink over the top, not that you can see it very well.
