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

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.
