Team Lou's challenge this week over at The Southern Girls Challenge is...Tic Tac Toe! The rules of the challenge are - pick three in a row, could be across, up, down or diagonal.  Just pick three and include these in your creation. I went straight down the middle using a die cut, stamp and the colour blue. I stamped the striped background with Silver pigment ink, as well as stamping the words Bam!, Pow! and Super!  From the background I die cut out a star and backed that with red cardstock and...a stamped star. To help give it some more of that super hero feel, I then added two larger stars in blue and yellow, layering them on top of each other.  The final touches were added with a banner, red die cut stars and some red twine.

I was asked to pick from their kit range, a kit to use as my inspiration and I happened to notice a NZ brand Rosie's Studio.  So being a kiwi I opted for this one which sports the great Indigo Mist range, which is described as wintery florals, wood textures, and misty pinks, teals and blues - a modern yet rustic collection. #RosiesStudio #Indigomist #Cliquekits My lovely box arrived with a full set of Indigo Mist papers, Butterfly embellishments, gemstones, vellum die cuts, veneer embellishments, collectables, doilies and some designer buttons.  A great kit full of products that I could instantly see would be well suited to almost any style of scrapbooking, card making or general paper crafting! I have to apologise for the lack of process photo's as I had so many ideas for this range that I ended up swapping and changing my mind on things right the way throug...

Challenge time again!  This month Lets Craft and Create   invites you to put some extra layers on.  You can use so many things to create layers which adds a bit of extra depth so it will be interesting to see all your submissions. I like to use stamping, embossing, stencils and some mixed media to create a bit of extra depth.  However in this case I have kept this quite minimal. I started with overlapping three papers, giving the middle piece some extra detail by die cutting the edge.  The different patterns on the papers helps to add an extra interest and another layer.  For my next flat layer I inked through a 13@rts stencil.  This gave me a nice base of what I consider at least three layers already.  From here I then started to build up individual layers using die cut papers, mesh, ribbon flowers and butterflies stamped on clear acetate.  Each of my paper layers are lifted with a layer of thin cardboard between them, this helps w...
