Pretty papers

 

The new new challenge over at Try it on Tuesdays is...

 Pretty Papers

I have added a few pictures of the papers I selected from my stored files, to create this digital card. I layered them up a few times to see  how I wanted to use them.

. A bonus for me with digital layers is that there is no need to stick anything down  and its so easy to move layers  with a click on the computer mouse.

  In the computer program [ notes in my sidebar]  I use.

 If needed,   I could have   even changed  the colours   so the papers would all compliment each other.

To my card  I added a digital floral image and a Birthday greeting.

Thank you for calling in to see me here today.

 Please  pop over and join us at TioT's

and see the pieces the team have created and shared  for this new theme.

We are looking forward to seeing how you use your pretty papers.

Use 3 Colours....... at TioT's.

 

'Use Three Colours'

is the new theme for the next two weeks over at

 Try it on Tuesdays

. Please pop over for all the information and  see  our Three Colour choices. 

  

I am still creating digital cards as these days I find it difficult to hold things 

like ink pads without loosing my grip and letting them drop onto the  card,

they have a nasty habit of falling onto the images I am  using, ink side down.

So digital is much cleaner and  safer for me just now.

I  do use photos of  my saved

 useable mop ups etc.

  Many of us. I'm sure 

 will have a pile of  these somewhere

 in our craft space,

 like this  stencil background.

 Hence my colour choice

  of shades of yellow and green 

with a splash of red.

Thank you for calling in to see me, 

I hope  you will join us at TioT's 

and share  your three colours choices  there.

Summer Blooms.......... at TioT's

 

Summer Blooms....

is the new challenge theme over at Try it on Tuesdays

A digital Birthday card from me for  today,

 this theme really appeals to me as I love to see  summer flowers, they always look so bright and colourful. This theme could be interpreted in many ways other than flowers. This was my take on it using digital images of flowers. 

We hope you will join us  and share your ideas, remember  you can use any materials,

mediums, styles etc as long as you use the theme.

Listen to the birds......... for TioT's

 

Birds and/or Feathers....

is the new challenge  for us over at

Try it on Tuesdays.

I have created a journal page in the digital program I use with....

' Birds',   as my focus  and of course birds have feathers

 so I am  covering both parts of the challenge theme..

The page began with a photo taken of a hands on background page

This was an embossed page, coloured with distress ink, as you can  see I was able to 

alter it to an oblong shape and change the shades slightly before adding the images....

to create the page for my digital journal.

Please pop over to see  the ways the folk over at TioT's 

interpreted this theme and get all the challenge information......

we look forward to seeing you there.

        

                               

Make it Masculine.......... at TioT's

 

Make it Masculine ......

is the new theme over at Try it on Tuesdays

I have  created a digital journal page as I had  a bit of a back story  in my mind.

Dad decided to take his son Angus out for a day trip

 in the families much loved old mini car.

  [it only gets out of the garage on warm sunny days never in wet weather]..

They explored  and ended up down a narrow country lane,

 as they were deciding where to go next    the bird family turned up and asked for a lift .

Mother got a lecture about not damaging the paintwork on the car roof,

while the youngsters hurried to get on board.

I think dad will have  made a sharp get away in case any more family turned up.

A bit of a silly story but I know from experience and my family,   that men

can treasure old cars.

We hope you will share your take on this theme with us at TioT's

Please pop over to see what we made to share with you.

Keep it Simple.... at TioT's

 

A new challenge theme over begins over  at

Try it on Tuesdays today.....

Keep it Simple..

I have to admit that this was not an easy theme for me

 as I decided to leave a lot of white space on this digital card.

 If I had been able to use inks etc [ I have trouble  gripping and holding things these days]

   I would have been in real trouble keeping this card simple as I just love  inky backgrounds.

WE hope you will share your interpretations of our theme

and join  us at Try it on Tuesdays

Use a Stencil....... at. TioT's

 

A new theme  ... Use a .Stencil  begins today at

Try it on Tuesdays.

After the first  inking  and using of   the stencil image,  it was   sprayed with water to get a second impression  to fill up a bit of white space in the corner. Photo of the page taken , it was then 

added  into  the computer generated program I use [notes in my side bar]. 

 to create  these two fun digital cards for friends,

 I know the quotes will appeal to and  make them smile.

This is  second fun card I made with the same stencil background

WE hope you will join us at TioT's and show us how you  interpret this new theme, please call over to see what the DT have been  creating  are  to share with you there.
