Prize is 3 digital images!

I chose The Bots #209, which I have digitally printed on to X-Press It Blending card and then coloured with the following Copics markers:

• patina robot - E95, E97, E99, E18, B00, BG000, BG10, BG34, BG72, G00, YR31
• copper robot - E11, E15, E18, E08
• silver dog - C0, C1, C3, C5
• hearts/flower petals - RV63, RV66
• inside of flowers - Y15
• eyes - B14, B16, B18, white gel pen
• grounding - BV000, BV00, BV01
• outline - B16

I cut the coloured image with my paper cutter and then adhered it to a white square card from Envelope Solutions.

There was room for a sentiment, so I stamped "Beep Beep" from the Beep Beep Clear Stamp Set from La-La Land Crafts. I have stamped it under the coloured image with my MISTI and Bahama Blue Memento ink.

So, here is a final photo:

As usual, I have taken inspiration from the wonderful Alyce at Kit and Clowder and her fantastic monthly classes and bonus classes.

Beautiful Butterflies (Use a butterfly) for Let's Craft and Create Challenge #206 on the 5th of April, 2024

 

For this month's challenge at Let's Craft and Create Challenge Blog, we have the optional theme of

Beautiful Butterflies (Use a butterfly)

I again decided to do something quick and easy using La-La Land Crafts products, as I have been working quite a bit.

So, here is my card:

This card is actually a lift, or hitchhike from the Lift Challenge from last month and is called a Trellis Split Card Front Design! Bibi Cameron has some awesome examples. So I gave it a go using a white slimline card from Envelope Solutions. I just cut off 4 strips of around 1.5 cm and then two strips of 0.5 cm and used the narrower strips as the joining pieces - I adhered everything with double sided tape and glue. It was fun to make!

Then I have die cut daisies from one of the papers from the Life Documented Paper Pack and Open Daisy die. The centre of the flower is the other side of the paper. The stems and leaves were die cut from green cardstock.

Then I die cut the butterfly from another piece of the Life Documented Paper Pack and Butterfly die. I actually drew around the die on to Kraft paper and adhered the butterfly wings and body on to it as I wanted to include all the inside pieces.

I then die cut an oval from white cardstock using Double Stitched Ovals die and then stamped the sentiment from A Good Day Clear Stamp Set using Bahama Blue Memento ink.
