Woodware Design Team Challenge - Invitations

For this week's challenge I have chosen to use my cocktail set which would be just perfect if you are having a summer party or BBQ.


FRCL152 Cocktails


In the set there are various cocktails and wordings to compliment. 'Party time' is one of them.
The confetti border that I stamped around the edge of the circular panel on this card is a small stamp in the same set. 
I have layered up the glass as it is an easy shape to cut but if you had quite e few invitations to make you could omit that part.


For the colouring I have used Tombow pens and added some Stickles 'Diamond' glitter glue to frost the edge of the glass.

Woodware Design Team Challenge - Sketch

For this week's sketch I have used one of my Peel off's designs in black. I have kept to the sketch and kept it very simple as there is quite a lot of detail in the main image.



FRANCOISE - FUNKY FLOWER WINDOWS - Black 94091B




To do the doodling I have use a black Sakura Micron pen. To add the colour to the flowers and vases I have used Sakura dark Stardust pens. I like to water colour using these pens. I usually put a line of colour around the inside edge of the Peel Off's and drag the colour out with a brush and water. 
If you are a little scared to doodle freehand you can use Zentangle patterns. The sections in this design are quite small so the doodling is very simple.

Woodware Design Team Challenge - A child's card

The set that I have used to create this card is perfect for any cute little monster!


FRCL064 Little monsters


I love all the little elements like eyes and mouths that you can use to make up your own monsters.




I have used an A4 sheet of card which I have cut down the middle into two long strips. I have scored and folded one of the strips into four panel. Finally I cut of the corners for a tag effect.

I used Tombow pens to colour the little monsters. I have added some 'Stickles Diamond' glitter for fun. Pop along to the Woodware blog for some more fun ideas!

Woodware Design Team challenge - Red, white and blue

A quick post... or quick card. I picked up a free paper from Waitrose and really liked the design on the front page. I knew it would make a really nice backdrop for this Stampendous stamp : London Cling Stamp
I stamped the image and then added colour to make the flag and letters pop. I have use a Sakura clear glaze pen over the red on the flag and over the letters.I have added some Mark Richards bling and finished off with some ribbon. 


I really like this stamp and it has a lot of potential for other creative projects. Why not pop along to the Woodware blog to see other examples using this stamp.

Woodware Design Team Challenge - Buttons and bows

I do love buttons and bows!! as most of you probably already know....
On this card I have used Woodware blue buttons and yellow gingham ribbon. The bugs were made up by stamping elements from this set:
FRCL216 Patch a Bug
It's a real fun set that can be used to make up a caterpillar or flowers using the wings as petals. There is also a cute ladybug in this set.
The papers come from the 'London'
collection. I like my ginghams and there are two sheets of it in this collection.
For the flowers I have used the regular and large Woodware Daisy punches. I have highlighted the centres with a white Sakura pen.
For a change from wrapping the ribbon around the card I stuck a length across the card and added a bow at the end made separately.


Pop along to the Woodware Blog for some more inspiration on buttons and bows.
