One for the guys IncyWincy Challenge

Hi Every one,
Last week was so hectic I just couldn't post so I am glad I could this week.
The challenge for this week is called One for the guys. It has been sponsored by One Stop Card Crafts.



I decided to try another frame to sell on our stalls, which I will be doing quite alot from now on. I used a drawn image of a Lamborghini which I colour in a great vibrant yellow. I used photo paper to get the glos. the I used a paper backing with grass on it. I then varnished the frame Mahogany and to make it a little different I allow the car to be open to reveal the makers emblem. This is held in place with magnets which are hidden under the emblem itself.


What You Can Win!!!


You Will also receive 10% during this weeks challenge. Now that is great of Michelle.


Thanks and Good Luck

Incy Wincy May24th Challenge - Button up!!!

Hi again, I keep meaning to do many more cards and every week I find another reason I can't. This week has been so hectic with the charity. But here is my latest creation. I have done this for the challenge over at Incywincy designs and the challenge is called Button Up!.



We all had to use an image from Aspire's Charity Shop (formerly IncyWincy) and make a card or something that incorporates use of a button. So good Luck!!



I actually started this frame with joining two frames together and I then replaced the backing with a piece of artists canvas which was quite thick and I aligned the
3d image from. I then looked around at photos of actual stages in the world and found the one I used. I was fantastic due to the many layers. Which by luck was the same as the 3d image.



I layered the photo using fireworks and slowly built up the layers using 25ml double sided tape. I then varnished the frame and added a eyelet to mount on the wall. I was going to sell this but Tami(wife) has informed me it is not leaving the house.


Thanks to all for looking and goodluck at winning the prize of $10 to spend at Aspire's Charity Shop.

MAY 17 challenge...the theme is BLAST FROM THE PAST

This Challenge is sponsored by


This card I created using the Hippy Chick Digi created over at Sassy's Studio Designs. I had a lot of fun using the gradient tool and a lot of spectrum colours to bring out the groovy look to this card.
I put a lot of flower bling on the card and this was really enjoyable to make.
Thanks for looking at my cards.

May 10 - Photo/Colour challenge

This Challenge is sponsored by


This weeks challenge over at Incy Wincy Design is to use the photo below as your inspiration. The Colour challenge is MINT, CREAM and CHOCOLATE.

This is a challenge I loved doing personally. Soon as I was given this image to try, I could not wait. The baseball boy image is really good to work with and I had the fortune that the colours go so well together in a uniform that it was very easy to complete this challenge. I used a preprinted sticker to make what looks like a batting cage the boy is standing in. Mint Green is prominent in the uniform and Chocolate and cream just fits in this creation. Thank you for looking at my cards.

The winner will be drawn by random.org and the winner will receive this lovely voucher donated by Phindy's Place.
