Challenge #129 - "Clean and Simple" - Pink Gem Challenge

Good Morning Gemsters, over on the Pink Gem Challenge Blogspot we are now onto our Challenge #129 and this time we want you to create a "Clean and Simple" card and of course we are being sponsored by Janet of Pink Gem Designs

And I decided to used this gorgeous image "Angelique"

I printed Angelique (and you will find her here,) onto white card then coloured it with my Copic pens and then cut her out with Nestabilitie Die Label No.1 and then I used a fancy one for the mount.

The base card is a 7"x 7" white card and for my first mount I have used a piece of white pearlescent card and then used a Embossing Folder to create the pattern on it, then around the middle I have wrapped a piece of pink ribbon and attached it to the back of the first mount. 

The mounted image was then placed in the middle and the sentiment has been stamped onto another piece of white card and mounted on a diecut from another Nestabilitie die.

Now that youve seen my card I do hope that you will pay a visit to the Pink Gem Challenge Blogspot site and see what the rest of the very talented Design Team have created for your inspiration and hopefully you to will want to take part in this "Clean and Simple" Challenge.

This Card is to be entered in the following Challenges:-

Challenge #145 - "Be My Valentine" - The Paper Shelter

Good Morning Crafters, yes its me again its actually my week for hosting the Challenge over on The Paper Shelter Challenge Blogspot with my A Team, and this week because its so close to Valentines Day I thought it was the right theme for this week so I want to see all your cards with "Be My Valentine" designs on them. As always ours sponsors are Veronica and Pedro of The Paper Shelter and they are offering a fabulous prize of $30.

 

And of course this means you must have used one of their products on your card, that could be a image, paper or printable, but even if you dont and you are picked by random org you will still win 3 digi images of your own choice, and if you would like to pay a visit to their website The Paper Shelter you will find it here.

And now to show you my card.

For my image I have used this "Love Bubbles" image and your will find it here, I have printed it onto white card then used my copic pens to colour it, afterwards I used the Nestabilitie Heart die to cut it out and a scalloped one for the mount. The sentiment is one from my stash which has also been cut out with a smaller heart die and also mounted onto a scalloped edge mount.

The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of white pearlescent card, the paper is from the Sweetshoppes digi "All Wet" paper set, its a blue background with bubbles on, and then down the middle i have used a strip of the same card and put it through a heart embossing folder and then placed it down the center of my card.

On top of this I have placed my mounted image and then put the sentiment down in the right hand corner, to finish of I have used the Memory Box bubble die to cut out the bubbles that are then placed in the top right hand corner away from the surprised fish.

Now that youve seen my card I do hope that you will pay a visit to The Paper Shelter Challenge Blogspot and see what the rest of the very talented Design Team have created for your inspiration, and hopefully you will want to join us and take part in this "Be My Valentine" Challenge.
