Twilight Birthday

Hello friends, thank you for all of your visits and comments both here and on facebook - they are all read and greatly appreciated!  Today I am sharing a card I created while having a break from some commissioned work and this is the outcome!

I have used 'that Folder' that came with one of the Australian Simply Cards Magazines - it was so popular and you can see why - can't you?!.  I have used it for pretty feminine cards but had a lot of fun with some texture and darker colours - I am really liking the almost grungy feel to this one - how about you?

The sentiment is also from a free set from the Australian Simply Cards magazine - they have such fabulous free gifts each month.  I have also used Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L 3D Foam Squares + E-Z Dots Permanent Refillable Dispenser and  Want2Scrap white pearls.

                                          This card is for the following challenges:

Spellbinders BIG Birthday

Hello Friends!  Today I am sharing a card created using Spellbinders Happy Birthday Easel Celebrate the Day by Marisa Job - it makes quite a statement don't you think?!?  Not only that - this could be the quickest layered card you are likely to create - now that I have your attention...LOL!

The card front has seen embossed using the Grid Embossing Folder on white card stock.  I have trimmed the Happy Birthday Easel to make it single sided and adhere to the lower portion of the card front using liquid glue.  The 'happy' has been created using stickers from my stash!

The card front has been layered onto a pre-cut card base using  Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L 3D Foam Squares - and there you have it - it is as easy as that!!

Out of this World Dr Who Style

Hello friends - any Dr Who fans out there?  The first thing I thought of when I saw this Phone Box stamp by Stampin' Up! was Dr Who - I have a son who is an avid fan and keeps us updated on that is happening with the Dr. 

I stamped the image onto glossy card stock using Imagine Memento Ink in Danube Blue and fussy cut/hand cut using scissors it out.  

The background is embossed using the Spellbinders Seth Apter Em-bossing Fold'ers Lazer Beams 5 x 7 and the Platinum .  The embossed layer has been randomly sponged using Imagine Radiant Neon Inks and a sponge dauber.  The 'Tardis' has been popped up onto the centre of the embossed layer using Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L 3D Foam Squares.   Kindy Glitz/Liquid Glitter has been added to each lazer beam.

The embossed card front has been layered onto a pre-cut card base, with a strip of embossed navy card stock added along the right side - liquid glitter has been added to the lazer beams.  Stenciled dots have been randomly added and finishing off with a computer generated sentiment.
