Concord & 9th

I’m back from my holiday to Turkey – fabulous and sunny – even though I was hit with a heavy cold on my return……I now feel I can get back into the flow of crafting.

It is time for the October challenge at Happy Little Stampers ‘anything goes birthday’. Here is my card:

Onto w white card base I layered a black panel, and added a dry embossed piece for additional interest.

The flower from Concord & 9th was stamped and then coloured using the layering stencils, then die cut with the matching dies.

Once adhered to the card with 3D foam, I added the foiled sentiment – using blac to tie in with the black panel.

I resisted adding some gems this time – shocker – and kept it quite simple.

I hope you can come and join us with your ‘anything goes birthday’ creations – I look forward to seeing what you create. xx

I shall be entering the following challenges:

Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge – emboss it

Try It On Tuesday – emboss it

CYHTP – embossing folder – option leaves

Creative Fingers – anything goes

I have a few cards to share today based on the same die set. This was a die set from our Camp Counsellor – Laura Bassen – for from the Concord & 9th Summer Camp a few weeks ago. Each of the six ‘cabins’ has their own Camp Counsellor, and each of the counsellors gifted a die set – and Concord & 9th then allowed us all to order all six of them – therefore I have another 5 to play with!

Their next two day event has just been announced and closes after one week – so if you’re interested, then I suggest you go and take a look…..

Here are my cards:

I made another couple of cards using the same colours – just arranged slightly differently:

The colours I used were for the current challenge at Color Throwdown. I also added some Tonic Nuvo drops in the challenge colours – I really can’t stop when I start to use them…..

I shall be entering the following challenges:

Color Throwdown – red, yellow blue

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge – add a sentiment
