Masking Challenge



Wow- your White on White entries last week were all so pretty.
Our next Craft Room Challenge is here and Esther has chosen a technique challenge-Masking- I use this technique a lot, but for this card, I've just done simple masking to create the hills, and to mask the hills when I used a big Pine tree Stamp to create the little pine trees on the hill.
I have to confess that after our polar Antartica weather last week- with snow in our neighbourhood like that not seen for 70 years- I've been inspired to start my snowy christmas cards :-)

Here's some photos of the snow at our house last week, soooo pretty.

You can just see the roof of my studio- looking all snowy.


And I love how the trees look covered in snow- here's a corner of the garden.

White on White


Wow, we are already up to challenge number 6 at Craft Room challenge Nikki has chosen the theme- White on White and the DT have made some gorgeous creations make sure you check them out and join in the fun.

For my card I've added texture with an Embossing Folder, disressing and stamping the main image with glitter- I think this is a perfect wedding card for that specail couple.

Summer Holidays



Hazel has picked the theme for this fortnights challenge at the Craft Room is Summer Holidays.... now obviously I'm still in the depths of winter here in New Zealand... We even had snow here yesterday which is very unusual- but pleased my kids, who'd never seen snow before.
So I the colours on my card are really bright!!!

I can't wait to see what you come up with this challenge- as the Butterfly entries have been gorgeous.

Summer Birthdays



It's time for our 3rd challenge at Craft Room Challenge and Mervi has chosen Summer birthdays because it's her birthday!

Here's my card which was inspired by Justin Timberlake's song "Summer Love" It got me thinking about Summer Holiday Romances....
I hope you like it. I embossed the sentiment and the Eiffel Tower and then brayered the background in sunset colours, masking the rose. I then used Prismacolour pencils to colour the roses, adding some shimmer paint.

We'd love to see you playing along, so pop over to CRC and join in the fun.
