Happy Birthday - Double Slider Card

Hi everyone!

We're heading into the second half of our current Dream Factory challenge, and I would like to briefly remind you about it.

 

Harald and the Purple Crayon

Anything Goes - In mainly purple.

You can use any color, but  PURPLE  has to be the main one!

Today, something a little less usual from me...

A few days ago, we made a little project in our Stampin'Up group. 

By pure coincidence, 

the colors of this beautiful floral card perfectly match the theme of the Dream Factory...

 

So, I would like to remind you of our challenge with this double slider Birthday card.

Here you can see how the thing works ;)

Thanks for stopping by.

And maybe you'd like to join us...

Hi everyone!

Time for a new challenge at the Dream Factory

Our movie for this month is:

Harald and the Purple Crayon

Anything Goes - In mainly purple.

You can use any color, but  PURPLE  has to be the main one!

I had absolutely no idea for this challenge and rummaged aimlessly through my stash, hoping to find some inspiration. 

I came across a poorly stamped tree (Katzelkraft) on purple cardstock and two stamp sets whose images could be combined well—an idea began to take shape!

I cut the panel to ATC size. Pasted die-cut and colorfully painted stars and hearts onto the snowflakes that originally adorned the tree, then dotted the swirls with a white Posca pen. I stamped a tiny white text on the left edge of the ATC and drew grass with the Posca pen on the bottom edge. So far, so good!

Next, I colored bird and balloon with aqua markers and glitter gel pens—if you look closely, you can see a slight shimmer in the bird's feathers. ...but unfortunately, not in the balloon.

Finally, I stamped the sentiment and cut it into labels. Cut out the bird and balloon and glued everything on. 

...I'm quite happy with the result :))

Hi everyone!

Time for a new challenge at 613 Avenue Create! 

The theme is Anything Goes w/optional twist: "Lots of leaves".

(create something featuring foliage or paper)

I'm not in the autumn mood yet and wanted something fun for this challenge. 

While browsing, I came across this purple cow. It's a leftover from this card I made for a card swap.

First, I brushed the background with Mowed Lawn and Salty Ocean (Distress Oxide). Then I stamped lots of leaves in the area where the cow would later be placed.

I also found a chicken that was already finished and cut out, and placed it on the cow's back. The chicken is looking at an insect that I colored with glitter pens. It shimmers quite nicely, but unfortunately you can't see it in the photo. 

Next, I stamped and fussy-cut some flowering plants and tufts of grass and glued them to the bottom—a rather fiddly job, but I like the result.

As a final touch, I added tiny red liquid pearls to the taller blades of grass and then stamped the sentiment.

Hope to see you play along with 613 Avenue Create
