Unicorn Princess

This week at creative knockouts is to use two favourite embellishments with a image from star stampz and I used this image unicorn princess

 This is such a cute wee image  and I wanted her to stand out so I made an easel card  The backing paper was from my stash and I used a pale blue base card coloured the image with copics  and used ribbon and gems the happy and birthday is from a die and stamp set

Butterfly

 This week at  Creative Knockouts is anything goes

For this card I tried something new making a stamp with a die cut There was a bit of time making this card  You cut two of your die cut using water colour card or something similar, you then ink them both one on the back side that is the one you drench in water and press to the card, I don't think I had the right card as mine did not stamp on the paper so well so after a couple of goes (that ended in the bin) I re inked the butterfly and pressed it to image then I left it overnight to completely dry

I adhered the image to pink card then onto a blue base card then added the top butterfly adhered a string of beads and stamped the sentiment

I think this might be a good thing for a favourite die cut, as I have many stamps, and I will use a  proper water colour card

Birthday Greetings

For this weeks challenge at Creative knockouts  is Birthday greetings with this image from KLM designs  gift wrapping gnome 

At one stage I really didn't like gnomes, but they are now starting to appear all around my house and in my craft room 

I decided to make this a man card, I printed out the image and cut it with my scan n cut ( love that machine) I then cut it out again with a border I then coloured him with copics the Happy Birthday is a die, where from I don't know, the backing paper is from my stash, the present is a button which I cut off the bit you sew too and it promptly fell to pieces glued it back up and adhered to card

Christmas in july

 This weeks theme at creative knockouts is Christmas in July with an image from Patties Creation with this image santas laundry 

 One of my grandsons thought it was a bit funny me making a christmas card at this time,but It didn't stop him from asking me to print an image for him so he could make one too I had some backing paper with numbers on it I adhered it to 3/4 of the green base card adhered ribbon on edge  I circled the 25 and stamped the sentiment onto the rest of card I printed out the image coloured it with copics used kindy glitz on the furry bits, adhered it to green card then adhered to card with thin foam squares

Bobs Ballons

This weeks challenge from creative knockouts  is die cuts/punches with an image from Dr Digi and I chose this image bobs balloons an image I think will be used for many occasions 

I used a brown kraft card for my base covered it with the spotty backing paper then used more card to die cut the curved lines which also has a embossed line of stitching on it I cut Bob out with my scan n cut leaving a border on him and coloured him with copics  I then adhered him to the card with D/S foam I stamped the sentiment onto card with distress ink  and went around the edges with the same ink I used a 5mm corner punch and punched opposite corners did the same to the strip of Backing paper then adhered to the card

Something to say

 This weeks theme at creative knockouts is Something to say with an image from patties creation and I chose this image cheers to you ladies

I put the sentiment under the image to make it one piece coloured it with copics I adhered the spotty backing paper to a brown card then the image with purple I also cut a couple of flourishes to put one on top one on the bottom On the inside of the card I put a strip of two lines of the same backing paper and the sentiment inside read ....BUT you are totally worth it

Relax

 The theme this week at creative knockouts is summer fun   with a image from  the paper shelter and I got to pick the image for us all to use so this is what I chose hammock days

I typed the sentiment using a yessy font and inserted the image and printed it off. I coloured the image with copics, positioned the trees to go to the end of the ropes,  had to bend them a bit but it worked out fine  a little bit of weight makes a sag I then made a mask for the tree trunks then stamped the grass and the flowers, I adhered it to green card  then onto a white base card. I then die cut the little butterflies and stuck them on
