Circles

 Try It On Tuesdays challenge is back and this time we have a theme of  'Going round in Circles'.

Have you ever had an idea that looked so much better in your head? This was one of them!

To be honest I was lucky that I even had an idea as they are very very few and far between at the moment.

So here's my interpretation of 'circles' and whilst I am not completely happy with it I hope you will join our challenge this time round (no pun intended!) and maybe go and visit the rest of the DT and see their makes.
Thanks for visiting me - I appreciate it. x

Totally Tropical - 3 Colours at Try It On Tuesday

Our new challenge gets underway at Try It On Tuesday today -  and it is to use 3 colours.
I chose Green, Yellow and Orange for my card.

It's not too often I make a tall slimline card.
Started with a stencil monoprint - oh I do love doing these!

Smooshing ink on a stencil, spraying with water and pressing down onto card - there's something very satisfying about seeing how the print turns out and no two are ever the same!

Mowed Lawn and Fossilized Amber on a tropical leaf stencil from Honey Doo.

I die cut some foliage and a flower and watercoloured in the same shades on some snippets of watercolour card, the flower centre was coloured with Spiced Marigold DI.

A scrap of lime card white heat embossed with the sentiment and job done!

Thought this make was quite apt at the mo as we've been experiencing some really summery days recently - although we've had a few thunderstorms and torrential downpours too!

Thanks for stopping by - hope you will pop over to the TIOT blog and see what the rest of the DT have to inspire you and - of course- hope you will join us this fortnight.

Happy Crafting. x
