Scrap the boys Cards - August 2018

Scrap the Boys Challenge Blog

Well... This one was just awesome fun! Scrap the  boys are at it again... Its Challenge time! 

Love the Geometric theme, love the colours and the whole rustic effect. Again I used some of Seth Apters Dies. He is a master of all things masculine. 

I got some Lindy's sprays in Cattail Copper Brown and Crows Nest Copper Moonshadow to create the rusty shades for the Seth Apter Dies - Robo bars. I used Tibetan Poppy Teal to add the patina to the rust and used a Clear Gesso'd sheet of plain white card as a base.

I had a Kaiser Craft Die for the reo bars and the chip board was from WOW I had in my stash for AGES... 

Here is a close up of the finished effects.

Scrap the Boys Cards - July 2018

Hello!! Today I have some thing I pulled together for Scrap the boys - Card challenge for July.  

I used the sketch provided by Creative Scrappers and Scrap the Boys wanted to explore the theme of "Celebration"

I decided to make a card dedicated to the Dad in our family for his Birthday... I hope my husband enjoys his card and even more importantly... His Birthday! Love you Babe..

Scrap The Boys Cards - May 2018

Welcome to our new post at STB - Cards...

This month we are giving the 12 x 12 scrappers a run for their money by sharing their Mood Board. Here is my take on the challenge... Join in with us and show us what you can do... at Scrap the Boys - Card Makers

Check out how intensely the Mermaid Brush Markers by Jane Davenport reacted to my card. I held them at the top and squeezed a couple of drops at a time and let it run down the page. I used an eye dropper to help with the flow. I love the way the colours sat on top of each
other and pooled... My new
favourite technique!!












I used some Nuvo Embellishment mousse to create some texture on the page and to give the saturated brights a little sparkle to offset... Winner!!

Black and White + 1 Colour... Hmm!

Come and Play along... 

Sounds easy,  right? Well... what a challenge for this mixed media girl! I like colours and layers and contrasts and compliments all in the mix... So I really did move out of my comfort zone with this one and am thankful for the push.
