LAST PROJECT FROM KAT

Today is the last project from Kat...Lovely don't you think??

Hi Jacqui and teamies.

At last I've made something with the last kit. I think you'll all think I'm very slow cos it's taken me all day to make this and then I needed to charge my phone battery before I could upload the photo!!

Sorry it's not a very good photo I've managed to cut off the top of the bow. Do you think it's a bit over the top? I seem to have ended up with a lot of bits on it!

I painted the frame in some of that lovely Annie Sloan chalk paint and then stamped over the top of it using Brushed Corduroy Distress Ink and a Hero Arts background stamp - Envelope Pattern. Think I'd have been better using a little stamp.....I had to hide some dodgy looking bits!

I stamped the little birdie straight onto the paper and ribbon and then onto paper which I coloured with Promarkers, cut out and then popped it up on sticky pads for some dimension. I pinched Kath's idea of a branch in the corner that she used on her canvas at her Papeterie class. Thanks Kath for the inspiration. I didn't have a die cut branch or even a suitable branch but I found a branch in a Hero Arts Christmas set and stamped it twice, coloured it and cut it out.

I added button "flowers", dressed of course. I think the rest is self explanatory. The blank frame was part of my kit. The other side said Spring but I thought this side was more useful so I could write "My craft space" on it and have it in my craft area.

I'm a bit embarrassed to show this since everyone else has made such beautiful cards, canvases and frames. I'm hoping to get some cards made in the next day or two.

I think you will all agree that it's fabulous!!!

MORE LEAF CARDS...KAT...

Today we have a lovely card from Design Team member Kat...

My First Leafy Card!

At last I've managed a card with the Delicate Leaf Clusters stamps. Very simple and quick. At least it was quick after a bit of thought and a wee practise. I was going to enter it in the Less is More challenge but of course it's closed now. That'll teach me to spend all morning doing housework today. I knew I should have taken a photo and entered last night.

Maybe my card's too plain but I had the stamp directly onto the card challenge on my mind when I made it. I have some other ideas so hopefully I can get something else done soon.

Here are some more gorgeous creations from Kat...

It's taken a long time for me to produce anything this time but last night I sat down and made myself try to make some cards. The delay is mainly due to me looking at the kit and not knowing what to do with it lol! Apart from being up to my ears in Christmas cards for a while.

I know I've said before that a kit has been a bit out of my comfort zone but this one was completely out of it so I'm sorry in advance that they're not like the gorgeous, clever creations everyone else has made. I've still got a couple of ideas to try and apologies to Kath for the "naked" button on the last one I might still take it off and "dress" it.

I think you can probably see that I can't do "arty" stuff just ordinary!!
