April Just for Fun Challenge Card

Good morning everyone,

It looks like spring is here with the daffodils in full bloom and Easter just around the corner. And the temperature is definitely a bit warmer.  The sun is struggling to part the clouds and shine as I write.

This months word at the Just for Fun Challenge is EASTER and can be found HERE.

 I took my cue from the daffodils and decided to draw some. In the end one splendid daffodil made it to the card and as it was for a friend I put this sentiment on it. 

Here is my hand drawn daffodil. It is coloured with Pro Markers. The Spellbinders die behind Is coloured with distress inks.

So hop on over to the Just for Fun Challenge Blog and enter your Easter card.

You will find lots of inspiration from the Design Team and from the other entrants.

I'm entering this in the following challenges

Catch the Bug challenge -Spring Time

I hope you all have a Happy Easter and a wonderful Spring.

Hugs,

Christmas Fun DT card for April

Hi Everybody,

Isn't the year flying. Here we are into April with Easter in a couple of weeks, the Summer not far off and I'm making Christmas cards. This is because I'm in the Christmas Fun Challenge group HERE 

The challenge for this month is a card for a man or Anything goes. Its up to you what you make.

This month I made a simple card that could be used for a man or woman. I folded an A4 card in half and folded back the front to the left. The topper is from Kanban and the die cut is a Spellbinders Adorning squares die.

I love snowmen and this one is so cute.

Walking in a Winter Wonderland.

Here is the inside, I over did the the foam pads so had to put an image on the inside of the topper to cover them up.  It finishes it off.

Lots of sparkle too.

I'm entering this card in these challenges,

 I'm making more of these so I'll have a good few cards for Christmas and you can use this idea for any type of card. 

Have fun playing along

Just For Fun DT Card.

Hi everyone,

Would you believe I have blogged two days in a row!  I know but here I am.

This is my second Design Team post for the  Just for Fun Challenge.  The theme for January is 'New' so I choose 'New Beginning'.  When I started to put the card together I had no idea where to start so when I came across this Kanban stamp from Aspire Crafts  I knew it was right. I stamped it with Memento 'Grey Flannel and used Pro markers to colour it.

 When I had the card put together I realised how poignant it really was. The ship sailing from the shore fits the sentiment beautifully. 

The lacy die cut is Spellbinders Elegant labels 4 and I also used them for the sentiment by trimming down the back one. I added the silver corners to balance and frame the card.  I hope you are inspired to have a go and join in with our challenge  HERE .

Have a happy day and treat each day as a New Beginning.

Hugs, Kay. XX
