Dreams are for Chasing

Happy New Year to you all. Hoping and praying that this year is going to be better than the last. Hope yours is off to a happier start.

It's time for our first challenge for 2021 at 613 Avenue Create. The challenge is an Anything Goes with an Optional Twist. This time there is no twist.

Here is what I came up with. The design of the card is one I cased from pinterest so I am unsure of whose layout it was.

 Recipe: SU Night of Navy cardstock, white cardstock from stash, DP from stash (single sheets)               Stamps -Dog and sentiments and sentiment die are from Uniquely Creative - Aussie Geo and Dreams are   for Chasing. Tree die from stash (my craft room is in major disruption at the moment with different storage going in)

Well that's it from me, have to get the food on for tea. Baked Potatoes, quick and easy, lol and then off to listen to a live radio broadcast in the park. It's starting to cool down so may have to take something warm to wear.

We'd love to see your creations so pop over and join in the fun of the challenge. Loads of inspiration from the DT and all the different entries in the challenge as well.

Thanks for stopping by,

Hugs, Sandy DT

Mixed Media Butterfly card

Hi to all who are popping in. It's time for another challenge at 613 Avenue Create. An Anything Goes challenge that has an optional twist. This month's twist is to add wings. I decided to give my card a touch of mixed media which I've only attempted once or twice. I had some home made gesso which I used on a stencil and then gave it a bit of colour with some ink.                                                                                     Here is my creation.....

Recipe:  SU  Cinnamon Cider, White cardstock from stash, D/P from stash, Stamps from stash (they are freebies from magazine purchases)

Copic Markers and several inks from SU.

Homemade texture paste. 

Stencil for flowers and I made the cloudy background.

Circle Dies from Uniquely Creative

Hope to see some of your creations over at 613 Avenue Create. Don't forget to check out all the fab makes by my teammates.

Hugs, Sandy

Christmas is coming

 Hi everyone, here I am with my latest DT card for 613 Avenue Create challenges. An Anything Goes challenge blog that has an optional twist. I'm playing the twist with my card and this month the twist is - Use a charm.  I decide to use up some of the many diecuts that I've purchased over the years that just sit in a crate in my craft room. So....no stamping and lots of die cuts and I added a lovely little Christmas tree charm with a bit of twisted string (keeps it in place a bit better) Added a few pearls and I'm happy with how it turned out.

Here it is......

Recipe: SU Natural Ivory cardstock, Christmas Vineyard embossing folder, Kaisercraft Christmas diecuts, Christmas tree charm from stash (an ebay purchase from years ago) and Kaisercraft pearls. Copic Markers to colour the present diecut which was from a black and white set of Christmas diecuts.

I'd love to see what you created with our theme. Come and pop into the challenge blog and add your creation(s). Check out all the design team inspiration and leave us a comment. You could even visit some of the other entrants blogs and check out their work a little closer too. We all love to be encouraged.

Thanks for stopping by,

Hugs, Sandy DT
