crafting Olympics

This is for the crafty boots DT which I was really pleased to be chosen by Freya and Stephanie-Emma For our first theme we have chosen to do the Olympics.

To make this card I first cut out 5 globes with Tim Holtz movers and shapers using a Big Shot.

 Inked the globes with the colours of the Olympic rings using distress ink. (The globes symbolising the Olympics bringing the world together through sport.) 

  Each globe was embossed with clear embossing powder, using the heat gun to get the full effect.

They were put to one side to cool.

 I then started on the background, using a sponge dauber, worn lipstick and faded Jean I created the Union Jack. Using a small brush I painted a little bit of PVA on the side of the blue globe and stuck it onto the black and so on. These were then stuck onto the Union Jack.

Hope you like it!!

Wonderful Dad

Happy fathers day to my wonderful dad. 

This card is for fathers day. To do this card I embossed the card using a Tim Holtz embossing folder. Next, wild honey distress ink  was rubbed over the card.  A hear was cut out and embossed in gold embossing power and heated using a heat gun. The chipboard letters were positioned on either side and the middle letter on the heart.
