Welcome to Funday Friday Challenge #149 over at Jo's Scrap Shack

Our theme for this week is "Anything Goes " 

Our Sponsors this week are 

Di's Digi Stamps  who give $12 voucher to shop 

Little Blue Button Stamps who give 4 digis to a single winner

I have used the LBBS fabulous digital image "You Got a Present".  

I have created my card so it can be used as either a birthday or Christmas card.  My image has been coloured with Copic and Finecolour markers and cut out using my Scan N Cut machine.

Green card was then cut to cover my card base and for my image to mount onto.  The pink/silver layer was a new experiment for me.  

I had been shown a foiling technique using Jac paper- a double sided adhesive sheet.  Having no Jac paper on hand I decided to experiment putting a piece of cardstock through my xyron machine.  Once the adhesive was applied and before removing the backing sheets I embossed the cardstock using my cuttlebug and an embossing folder.  Then removing the backing sheet to expose the adhesive I lay across a sheet of silver craft foil and rubbed with my hands.  The foil adhered to the embossed areas.  I then sprinkled pink glitter onto the areas that were not embossed to cover over the remaining adhesive.  

The photo doesn't do justice to how pretty it looks.  There are a few little spots where the adhesive has lifted.  I'm not sure if this is because the xyron hasn't been used in a while or that the adhesive is not suited to this technique.  I will be trying the foiling again for another project in the future.

Once all the layers were combined I finished my project off with liquid pearls.

I hope you join in with us - Come on get creative.

I'm excited to see what you create!

I plan to enter the following challenges:-

Welcome to Funday Friday Challenge #123 over at  Jo's Scrap Shack

Our theme for this week is "Anything Goes" 

Our Sponsors this week are Little Blue Button Stamps (4 digis to a single winner) and Sami's Stamps( $12 gift voucher to store)  - I have used their fabulous digital image "Hot Cocoa Friends".

I have created an Art Journal page today.  The background is stencilled, gessoed, and then stamped with CTMH stamps.  My image was painted with acrylic paints. The hats looked a little flat so I stencilled on some white paint to give some interest. I then outlined these and added some banding.  I also added some liquid pearls to one of the mugs.  I added Fun Flock to the pom pom so it feels nice and fuzzy.  The sentiment comes from a page from an old scrap magazine.

I hope you join in with us - Come on get creative.

I'm excited to see what you create!

Have a great week

Welcome to Funday Friday Challenge #11 over at  Jo's Scrap Shack

Our challenge this week is to be inspired by the following sketch.

A scrapbooking friend lost her husband this week so it was the perfect opportunity to use the sketch to create a card to let her know she is in our thoughts.

My base is white cardstock.  My patterned paper is from Crea8ive the edges are inked with Close to My Heart (CTMH) "Cocoa" ink.  I then added the organza ribbon.  My sentiment is from the "For Every Occassion" set by CTMH stamped with "Cocoa" ink.  My image from the "Live Inspired" set by CTMH is also stamped in Cocoa ink then edged and "distressed" with a combination of Cocoa and Brown Bag CTMH ink.  This was mounted on foam tape for some dimension.

The card is finished with 3 dots of liquid pearls.

I hope you join in with us - Come on get creative.
