Cornish Heritage Farms is going in Circles

This is my second post for today, so if you're looking for the Top Tip Tuesday Challenge, please scroll down.

Our host Barb has chosen for the Cornish Heritage Farms Challenge:

 Circles, Circles, Circles

Card Size:  4.25" x 5.5"

I had a lot of fun designing this card.  The circles challenge was perfect for creating port holes for this seaside image.  It's called Harbor Scene and is available right now in the CHF Store, just click on the link. The black rhinestones (which are circles too!) are meant to look like rivets, and the EK Success Fountain of Fun corner punch reminded me anchors:)

The rhinestones add a nice sparkle to the card.

 Copics Used:
Sky - BG0000
Water - BG10, BG53
Boats - R08, W0, W7 & G28, G46, N7
Buildings - W5, W7, E41, E42 & E84, W5 & W1, W3, W7
Dock - E34, E35, E25, W5

Recipe:  CHF Digital Stamp-Harbor Scene, PP-Echo Park Paper-A Boy's Life Suave, CS-Black, Spellbinders-Circles Sm., EK Success Fountain of Fun Corner Punch, Black Rhinestones, Foam Squares, Copics.

Happy Birthday Top Tip Tuesday!!

Hello and welcome here!  Top Tip Tuesday is celebrating their 2nd Birthday, YAY!!! Can you guess what the next challenge is?  Birthday Gifts...you can decorate boxes/bags etc. or use an image of a gift.  I chose to use images of gifts.

Challenge - Birthday Gifts

Tutorial - Picnic Box by Bettina

Card Size: 4.25" x 5.5"

The gifts are a great way to use up scraps!  I can't take credit for using Martha Stewarts Ribbon Loop corner punch for the bows, I saw the idea on someone else's blog and thought it was a super cute idea.  I embossed the background paper with Marianne Designs embossing folder, but left the little cut-out pieces in.

I added a strip of glitter paper behind the presents to give it sparkle...I think I'll add some Stickles to the bows too.

Recipe:  PP-My Mind's Eye Howdy Doody "Lovely" Wallpaper & Howdy Doody "Beautiful" White Wash, American Crafts Mulberry Glitter paper, I didn't have the info left on the bit of flower paper, CTMH CS-Juniper & Cotton Candy, CTMH Ink-Juniper, Cotton Candy & Black, SS-Flourish Tag Lines, CTMH SS-Tender Tags, Martha Stewart Punch-Pinking Scallop Border & Ribbon Loop Corner, Spellbinders-Lacey Ovals & Ovals Sm., Pearls, Foam Squares, Celebrate It 5/8" Cream Grosgrain Ribbon.

Card Size:  4.25" x 5.5"

I used the Cornish Heritage Farms digital stamp called Palm Trees, it's available right now in the store, just click on the link. I printed it, then cut it to the size I wanted.  I decided to sponge on some clouds...this is such a fun image with so many options, you could choose to brayer on a night sky, or sunset etc., or even sponge on colours using a circle for a mask to create a moon, or sun.

To make my card a little different I made a shadow box to frame my image.  I left off a sentiment because I wasn't sure for what occasion I would use it yet:) I also didn't add ribbon, just in case I wanted to use it for a guy!

Top Tip Tuesday Focus on the Ribbon Card

Hello and welcome here!  Are you enjoying the Olympics?  We are at our house...except for our 4 year old, he'd rather watch cartoons:)  It's time for another Top Tip Tuesday Challenge, and we want to see your ribbon...lots of it, or even making your own ribbon roses, or weaving it etc. We'd love to see your ideas for ribbon.

Challenge - Focus on the Ribbon

DT Tips

Card Size: 4.25" x 5.5"

A big thanks to Delicious Doodles for letting me use the digital image Mythical Pegasus. I envisioned lots of ribbon for this image, what little girl doesn't like ribbons and glitter.  And my Tip to share with you is if you want texture without overloading your image, use Organza Ribbon, it has such a soft, light feel to it.

Pretty In Pink Scripture Card

Hello and welcome here.  I have another card to share with you today.  I'm creating like crazy to have lots for my stash. 

Card Size: 4.25" x 5.5"

I've seen many cards with scallops along the bottom, and so I decided to give it a try too.  And of course I'm loving the Floral Ovals, so I had to use them too, lol.  For some reason the lighting makes the pink in the paper look different, but the pink of the seam binding matches really well to the paper in real life. I shared the card I used scripture on, but I also made 2 with Happy Birthday in the oval.

Inside:

Recipe:  PP-My Mind's Eye Miss Caroline Dolled Up "Cute" Garden Paper, Cornish Heritage Farms SS-Thomas Kincade Scripture I & Beautiful, Verve SS-Circular Sayings, CTMH Ink-Black & Creme Brulee, Spellbinders-Classic Ovals Small & Floral Ovals, Martha Stewart Vintage Doily Border Punch, Wild Orchid Rose Petal Vintage Seam Binding, Recollections Pearl Brads, Foam Squares.

Pink Happy Birthday Window Card

Hello and welcome here.  I've been busy making cards again, and today I have a feminine birthday card to share with you. I usually layer 'up' my images ore sentiments, and often forget that you can make a window and pop that up while the sentiment or image remains on the card base. It came together quickly, gotta love that!

Card Size:  4.25" x 5.5"

For some added interest I embossed the frame after I cut the window in my CS.  I stamped the sentiment by Flourishes in black, and for the flourish I used 3rd generation ink (it just means I stamped on a piece of paper twice, before I stamped on the sentiment). I finished off the card with a bow in the corner, and to even things out I added pearls in the opposite corner. 

Inside:

Recipe:  Flourishes SS-Happy Birthday, CHF SS- Beautiful, CTMH SS-Tender Tags & Card Chatter, PP-My Mind's Eye Miss Caroline Fiddlesticks "Home" Dotted Paper, CTMH CS-White Daisy, Distress Ink-Aged Mahogany, CTMH Ink-Black, EF-Craft Concepts Budding Vine, Spellbinders-Labels 20, Wild Orchid Crafts Rose Petal Vintage Seam Binding, Recollections Floral Embellishments, Pearls, Foam Squares.
