Day 25 - "W"

I often use my water based ink pads as a colouring medium for my stamps by laying some of the ink down on an acrylic block and then picking it up again with a water brush. You can intensify the colour by adding additional layers of ink once the first layer has dried.

YOUR TURN: Create a card or papercraft project using the letter "W" as your prompt.

Day 29 - "Z"

I love Z-fold cards! They're easy to make and decorate and they look great when stood open for display. The only thing better than a Z-fold card is a double Z-fold, and the only thing better than that is two of them!

YOUR TURN: Create a card using the letter "Z" as your prompt.

Day 11 - "J"

It's J-Day and I'm going with a jingling silver bell.

I've kept my palette restricted to a combination of black and white alcohol markers and coloured pencils. I like the neutral tones combined with the brushed silver card stock, which I've embossed with an old folder I've had for many years. A double organza bow finishes my card nicely and adds a little more shine.

YOUR TURN: Create a card or papercraft project using the letter "J" as your prompt.

Day 18 - "P"

One of my favourite mediums, which also happens to start with the letter "P", is coloured pencil. Since I used Prismacolor Pencils to colour my image, which is two "P"s, I think I should receive double points... and that entitles me to a bonus cookie for morning tea. Right?

YOUR TURN: Create a card using the letter "P" as your prompt.
