Guest Designer at CCC Digi Creations

Happy Wednesday Crafters! I hope you are well.
CCC Digi Creations have a new challenge starting today and I´m absolutely delighted to be their guest designer for this challenge. The theme is "Let´s Get Sentimental" and I´ve used the image 
Sports 9 so kindly given to me by Morgan´s Artworld

I do hope you will pop over to visit CCC Digi Creations to see all the fabulous creations made by their talented DT´s. They have challenges every fortnight starting the 1st and the 15th every month.  




Thank you so much CCC Digi Creations for asking me and thank you Morgan´s Artworld for this lovely image. This was such a fun card to make and this image suited me just perfect. I love making this type of card and I have a special recipient in mind for this one. He fishes a lot and he even looks like the man in the image so I´m quite sure this card will fit him like a glove.

Anything Goes at Club KennyK


Hello Crafters!
Sharing with you today my DT card for KennyK with the theme we all love, Anything Goes. My card is made using the super sexy image Heidi Hot Rod and also a sentiment from the clearstamp set Dangerous Curves. You can find them both at www.kennykstamps.com.

The challenge starts today at our Facebook group Club KennyK and runs until the end of this month. This time there will be extra prizes beside the usual digis. How about the chance to win a 5 pen Chameleon marker set!!! There are 3 sets of these fabulous markers on stake here so welcome to join the fun.


I wanted a rusty look on my card so I´ve used these new rust effect pastes from Prima on some details. I´m so in love with them. They come in a set of three colors and together they are magical.

I was so happy finding that dirt bike die from Cheery Lynn so I could make a themed card for my Enduro loving brother in law´s 50th Birthday. 


Recipe
Image Heidi Hot Rod from KennyK colored with Distress Ink re-inkers

Design papers from Prima, the Romance Novel Collection
Cardstock in black
Dangerous Curves ticket/sentiment down at the right hand side is from the KennyK clearstamp set Dangerous Curves
The rust I´ve created using three different techniques: rust effect paste from Prima (on the frame and the wrench for example), embossing powder (the gears) or acrylic paint from DecoArt (the covered nuts)
The dirt bike is cut out with a die from Cheery Lynn and then covered with five colors of embossing powder and also a touch of the rust effect paste from Prima
The wrench I´ve bought in a hardware store, it´s also covered with the rust effect paste
The covered nuts at the three corners of the frame I´ve made using board from the set Industrial Elements (Tando Creative) colored with DecoArt acrylic paint raw umber and quinacridone gold 
The light I found laying on the garage floor at my hubby´s work
The Gasoline bottle and the helmet are charms (I´ve taken of the little ring at the top) 
The mask and the spark plug are from two different set of embelishments from Prima
The safety pin I think is from Michaels

Please don´t hesitate to ask if you need more details

Mixed media canvas

Hello everyone, today I have something special to show you. Last weekend I attended a Finnabair class in Lund, Sweden. This is something I´ve wanted to do for a long time and I can say it was absolutely FANTASTIC!!! Anna is such a delightful person, so very creative and inspiring. Loved it!

I can hardly believe that I´ve created this, lol.



This is a canvas made with embellishments, stencils, pastes, gels and paints from Finnabair. I don´t hink I can describe how I made this in Swedish even less in English, lol, so you just have to enjoy the look of it. But don´t hesitate to ask if you have a question, I will try my best to answer them :) 


Have a lovely day
Hugs Lisa

Candy Shop

Hi all!

In my second post for today I have a card to show you using one of the new backgrounds from www.kennykstamps.com. I have used Candy Shop together with Queens Cutie, one of the clearstamp sets also available in the shop. I went to the local candy shop to see if I could find any candy to use for my card and when I found a pink and an orange lollipop I knew what color to use. 




I colored her with Distress Ink re-inkers in picked raspberry and ripe persimmon, and the Candy Shop background is colored with FC Polychromos pencils. The KennyK challenge starting today have a theme of using flowers so I made this very big flower using a Tim Holtz die. I found a piece of candy to fit the center of the flower.

Welcome to join our challenge starting today at Club KennyK! 
Anything Goes
