'The Colour Purple' with the Dragonflies

 
Good Morning. Another quick scheduled post from me. This time the challenge at Crafting with Dragonflies is 'The Colour Purple'.
 
Here is my inspiration for you.
 


A piece of A4 card stock was folded landscape orientation with a matt created using paints on shiny water colour card stock. The paint was blended together with water sprays and a fan tail brush. When dry I embossed it. The purple mirri frame was die cut and placed around the matt. I then die cut flowers in purple mirri, pink and white. The greeting, Thank You, is die cut also from purple mirri card.

For more inspiration pop over to the main challenge blog (link in sidebar). This is a card only challenge...... for fun.

So.....Have Fun!!

CD Sunday 'Art Deco'

Good Morning. I hope you are all having a relaxing weekend.

Our challenge at CD Sunday this time is Art Deco. A lovely glamorous theme chosen by Margaret.  I loved all your entries from the last challenge and the winner will be posted next Sunday.



                                         I have used a CD by Debbie Moore Art Deco 'Decadent Moments'

The card was a commissioned card for a glamorous lady. The white card stock was covered with designer paper and the image printed off from the CD. I placed it on a matt of cerise pink mirri card. The sentiment was die cut from the same mirri card. The name tag was some pink peel offs I'd had for eons and they matched perfectly.

I hope you'll be joining us for this challenge. For more inspiration please pop over top CD Sunday (link in sidebar)

Don't forget there's always a great prize on offer. As this is a CD challenge blog you must use something from a CD, however small, and tell us which CD you used.

Have fun!!

'Happy 5th Birthday' to the Dragonflies!!

We have four sponsors for this challenge. So prizes available for this 5th Birthday challenge and lots of inspiration from the design team.

There are lots of prizes from our generous sponsors for this challenge. Full details on Crafting with Dragonflies challenge blog. (Link in sidebar)

Here is my inspiration for you.


I made this as a commissioned card for someone who loves CAKE!! The main card is made using Hunkydory's adorable scoreable card.  It was an insert but I decided to use it as a card front as it fitted perfectly with the commission.

The large cake was a googled image as was the sentiment. Peel off letters were used for the recipient's name and Happy Birthday.

I hope you'll be inspired to join us for our challenge. As this is our birthday celebration challenge we have been kindly sponsored by lots of generous people. You will find a list of our sponsors and what you can win on the Crafting with Dragonflies challenge blog (link in sidebar)

Sorry I can't list them here but I am out of the country at this moment in time and this post was scheduled before the sponsors list and prizes had been finalised.
