layered card - Cardz 4 Guyz #323

Hello

We have a new challenge over at 

Cardz 4 Guyz #323

Our theme is

LOTS OF LAYERS / AT LEAST 3

for my card I created. The fold is a little different.. well probably not the fold but front. The Kraft part is not glued down. You can see the area of the top bottom floral is where the kraft is cut the whole small kraft piece opens.. I guess you can see the next photo more on how this card is. You can add an image to the front diamond part but I liked the way it looked so left it alone. I may change it later when I decide who I want to send it to. I could add the sentiment - thank you, happy birthday, get well..... 

See when the front is opened you can see the front and inside.

D - Dragonflies

I have always loved this dragonfly stamp from Stampers Anonymous.. I used some DCWV paper and stamped the image on it. I added this to a piece of purple card stock then to the black card stock. The leftover pieces from cutting down the image I used an made banners and tucked them in. I added some purple diamond drills.

Hello

Today we have a new challenge over at

Cardz 4 Galz #199

Our theme is 

BACKGROUND

This is my card and I created the background.. I watched on You Tube Kelly Taylor Cards.. and she took a piece of watercolor paper and using watercolors she just added streaks of colors without getting them muddy. which I did using Prima watercolors. You let it dry. I let it dry for about a week .. only cause I was busy diamond painting and just got lost in that.. lol.. Then I took my thicker almost 3 D effect embossing folder and the part that is more flat I added black ink and just tapping and tapping it on the flat part of the folder till I thought it had a good cover. I gently laid the paint side of the paper onto the ink side and carefully closed the other half and taped it shut just to keep the paper from moving. I ran it through my Big shot about 4 times just to make sure I got good coverage. Then when I opened it .. this is what I saw.. wow.. (I did two so another time I will show that one too) I love the effect. I didn't want to cover any of it so added a layered simple Simon Says hello...

Life is a beautiful ride - Cardz 4 Guyz #322

Hello

We have a new challenge over at 

Cardz 4 Guyz #322

Our theme this challenge is

Bi-peddle wheels - national bike day

I wanted to make a camouflage bike for a guy.. I found this paper that had large white flowers on it (a quick quote scrap) and it worked out perfect. I used mostly the dies for the bike. I did stamp the wheels and flowers. I added brads to the wheels. I used DCWV scraps and Ranger ink to distress the edges. The sentiment is also from Paper trey ink as well as the bike.
