Dani has done a great project to inspire you to play along with us.

Hi Guys it's Dani here.

 Life has got a little crazy busy for me at the moment so I have only had time to make one project for you. I have made a card using the current sketch and the very sweet image by our generous sponsors called

 "Best Friends"

I decided to do a little paper piecing on this one because it suits the image so well and don't those dresses look adorable. So for those of you who haven't tried paper piecing before here are a few instructions.

• Decide how many different patterned papers you would like to use in your image. I have use three in mine, one each for the dresses and one for the hats.
• Cut your card stock/paper to size, I always find 'Index card' size is good, roughly 10.5cm x 15cm and don't forget to include your plain base image that you will colour and adhere to. I have used Copic Express in this circumstance because I coloured the image with my ProMarkers.
• Print or stamp (depending on whether you are using digi images or a stamped image) on each of your paper pieces.
• Colour your base image and cut this to the required size. All you papttered pieces will be adhered to this.
• Fussy cut all the separate pieces as required. I cut the bows out in opposite papers for a bit more 3D effect.
• Colour any areas you wish to on your pieces, for example I have coloured the flowers on the hat and the line on the hem of the dress. You could also use your copics or ProMarkers to add depth to the pleats.

• Stick all your pieces down and your done. I think it always looks best if you then tie those papers in with your layout but that's just me!

 I hope this inspires you to have a go at this technique and don't forget to enter the challenge for a chance to win this gorgeous image and more from our very generous sponsor

#64 Top picks and a little inspiration

Good morning sketchies,

If you are looking for the current challenge click here

 

We had another bunch of  amazing entries to go through this week which again made it a very tough job for the DT to pick their favourites for the Top 4. In no particular order here they are:

#27 Mina



#7 An



#17 Andrea W



#11 Ruza



Congratulations ladies be sure to grab your top 4 badge from the side bar and you have also earned yourselves an extra entry in to this months random draw :)

Now onto some awesome inspiration for you from the wonderful and very talented scrapper Julene

Hi Everyone, it is Julene here to inspire you.
Just to refresh your memory, the current sketch looks like this

 

I've decided to make a layout for my inspirational piece.

I've also used a turquoise pearl flourish. Its name is pearl grace teal if you want to buy it from FLOURISH WITH A BLING

 

So without further ado, here's my layout

 

My title in the bottom right hand corner says Gardening is cheaper than therapy and you get tomatoes.

 

I've chosen a photo of my beloved father's orchids.

He was a champion at growing them, and took delight in the repotting and display of them.

I've matted it on Pink Paislee Luxe circles and used rose border fabric flowers as my main embellishments along with the FWAB flourish. I've dotted a couple of tiny roses at the ends of the swirls.

Hope you like it.

 

Happy Crafting :)
