TioT - Make it Masculine

Over at Try it on Tuesday our new challenge theme is a favorite of mine, which is "Make it Masculine". Having 5 nephews and no nieces have resulted in a much larger need for masculine makes than feminine ones over the years.

I love the ocean and so I went with a nautical design, using scrap paper strips, precut die cuts from Scrapboys, enamel dots, gauze and a sentiment from Tim Holtz. The layout was inspired by a sketch, another challenge theme favorite of mine.

TioT - Keep it simple

Over at Try it on Tuesday the challenge of "Keep it simple" has been running for a week, but there is still one week left for you to join. Keep it simple can be interpreted as clean and simple or just something that was simple to make.

I made a background quikly, using a stamp set from Aall & Create and some birthday greetings in Norwegian.
The image is an old Meljens digi, I found the image in my stash already colored up, fussy cut and ready to use, it was intended for a previous project but not used. I popped the image up with foam and added it to the stamped card base.

INK# 290 Moodboard (peach and green)

At Inkspirational we have a moodboard for yout to play with for the next 2 weeks.
It didn't take me long to make up my mind about what supplies to use for this challenge. I was immediately drawn to the butterfly image and the color composition of the bottom middle picture in this moodboard.
My stencil is from Altenew, the butterflies are all part of one big Memory Box stamp, I cut the image apart and used some of them.
A sstamped sentiment in Norwegian and golden splatter, and that was it.

INK #289 - Mini

At Inkspirational we have MINI as our challenge theme for the next 2 weeks. I love this theme and the possibilities are endless!

I chose to go mini in size with my projects, making mini envelopes, using Sizzix Postale die set. I used papers from Scrapboys Old farm collection with frames to die cut the envelopes. I used several stamps from the Tim Holtz Tiny toadstools and Field note sets. Coloring done with my Posca pencils.

I encourage you to head over to the challenge blog to see what my INK-teamies have made.  

These envelopes are also for:
