Christmas in July...

Morning folks...I hope the weather is good wherever you are...it's a bit rubbish up here!

It's time for a new challenge over on the Sweet Stampin Challenge Blog.

The theme this fortnight is "Christmas in July".

I bought this stamp set last year but never got around to use it so making the effort to get my unused stuff used!

First I stenciled those little trees with various shades of green and blue...now this stencil was not part of the same set as the stamp but thought it matched perfectly.

I stamped up 3 different little trees, coloured them with copics and then die cut and layered them onto the card.  I stamped and white embossed the sentiment and layered that onto the card too.

I added some doodling around the edges too.

Challenges:

Happy birthday to you...

 Hi folks,

Well it's the boss's birthday coming up and this is what I have made her, I hope she likes it.

I just love this flower stamp from Gina K...so I decided to use it and stamped and white embossed it onto watercolour card, then I masked it off and stamped and white embossed the birthday text.  I then randomly added some watercolours, I wanted some subtle colouring but some areas I wanted it to be more vibrant.  I added some spalshes of colour too, not that you can see those splashes unless you zoom in. I samped the sentiment, die cut the numbers and the word "you" in rose gold foil card and layered those onto the card.  I added some dots, gems and sequins to finish.
