The Paper Shelter Challenge #550 - Modes of Transport

Good morning and welcome to my DT post for the new challenge from The Paper Shelter. This week our challenge is another fun one- modes of transport, so think cars, trains, bikes, planes, boats and so on!

For my card, I have used the cute Lil' Cowboy digi stamp and added a sunset scene behind him as he is riding his cute horse through the fields! I used some of my old Waltzing Mouse stamps for the cactus background and sentiment. I'm not a particular fan of cowboys or Western movies as such, but seem to have built up a bit of a cowboy stamp collection, so these came in really handy!

Scene It Sunday #139 featuring Super Striker from Lili of the Valley

Good morning and Happy Sunday! Back to work tomorrow after having my 2 week Easter break from school. Not sure how I'll cope with getting back up at 6am every morning again, but needs must! Will take me about a week to get back into the swing of it all again! 

Anyway....this week's Scene It Sunday post uses another of my many Lili of the Valley images. This time, Super Striker, to refill my boys card stash as my mother-in-law keeps taking the ones I make as she has SO many grandsons (something crazy like 11 grandsons and then 3 or so great-grandsons as well as the 3 sons of her own! And there's girls too! Yep a huge family!)

I did keep this one fairly simple as the actual stamp was fairly big! Just a few buttons in the corner and a sentiment in the opposite one!

The Paper Shelter Challenge #514 Inspired by a Movie

Good morning and welcome to my DT post for the new challenge from The Paper Shelter. This week our challenge is to create a project inspired by a movie. You can choose any movie you like, just tell us which one you picked!

I am hoping mine is an obvious one, but just in case it's not, I picked The Karate Kid. One of my favourite movies from the 80s when I was a kid. I have recently been watching the Netflix Cobra Kai series which is great and this time round Jonny is my favourite, whereas he is a lot more nasty in the film.

For my card I used the fabulous Physical and Spiritual Strength image and teemed him up with a stamp from Clearly Besotted, which I think works so well!

Good morning and Happy Sunday! I hope you are all having a great weekend! I've not done much, but weekends are for chilling and crafting, right?!

For today's Scene It Sunday post, I thought I would add another boy themed card to my stash and used another of my cute Clearly Besotted stamp sets - this time Robot Plushies. These are just adorable and I have to say I did by it as there was an almost BB8 style robot in it! I am a huge Star Wars fan, so this set was a must for me! 

This card is for

All Things Magical and Mythical #7 Featuring Wizard from Tiddly Inks

Good morning and welcome to this week's All Things Magical and Mystical post. I thought I would go more magical this week and used my wizard digi stamp from Tiddly Inks. It's an older stamp, but is still available from their etsy store in a pack of 3 images called Wizarding Days. 

I realised I was getting a bit low on my boy themed card as my MIL has them all as she has something crazy like 13 grandsons and 3 great grandsons! Time to top up the pile!

LeAnn's World 101 Inspiration Post

Good morning everyone and welcome to my DT inspiration post for LeAnn's World 101 for January. Today I have chosen to use the cute Aaryn for a fun teenage boy themed card as I always need loads of these and never have ever already made! 

I made the brick wall using my stencil from Dutch Doobadoo and my new blending brushes which were fabulous to use! So much nicer and easier to get a depth of colour than the blending tools I have been using. The "graffiti" on the wall is an old set from Waltzing Mouse Stamps which is great for these kind of cards (and superhero or comic style ones as well). 

Recipe:

Stamps: Aaryn from LeAnn's World 101, Kaboom from Waltzing Mouse Stamps, Out of This World from Clearly Besotted Stamps

Papers: Wild Wasabi & Chocolate Chip (Both Retired) both from Stampin' Up, Ultimate Graphic Paper, Just For Men Patterned Papers from Crafter's Companion, Make It Colour Blending Card from Make It Crafty

Inks: Cajun Craze, Gumball Green (Retired), Take With Teal (Retired), Crushed Curry, Real Red & Lemon Lime Twist (Retired) all from Stampin' Up, Copic Markers

Accessories: Brick Wall Stencil from Dutch Doobadoo, Buttons from Stash

Copics Used:

Skin - E000, E00, E21, E11, E04, R30, R20

Hair - E23, E25, E27, E29

Eyes - E21, E23, E25

Hat - C00, C0, C1, Blender, YG11, Yg13, Yg17
