Darcy's 6 card challenge

Darcy from Art and Sole set a challenge last week, to design 6 cards using one feature stamp. I wasn't going to enter as I didn't think I could do it, but today I thought why not so here are my cards.



I decided to use the robin from JOFY 20 as the one that I use on each card.

Card 1





On this card I used the robin half off the page to creat a border. I used distress ink in tattered rose around the edge. I used promarkers to colour the wiseman and then added some glitter around the oval. I cut out a piece of acetate with snow effect and stuck on the inside, so the wiseman are getting snowed on .

Card 2





On this card I stamped a robin in each square. I stamped some foliage from FOFY M28 coloured it and stuck them on. I drew some berries to add a bit more colour. I distressed the edge of the card in old paper.

Card 3




This card was cut from a sizzix die I stamped and coloured the robins in the 4 corners. I distressed the edges in shabby shutters and added lots of glitter. The photo doesn't show it but it is very pretty round the edges.

Card 4






I used a paper that had a christmas tree on it. I thought this would be good to add some robins to. I edged the tree in black so that it stood out more and added some pink glitter and gems.

Card 5 







On this card I drew a branch to add the robins. I cut out a coloured some more foliage. I added some decoration around the card and some sparkle again very pretty but doesn't show in picture.

Card 6 







Again used the robins as a border but it in a different way this time you can see they robins and they are coloured in. I distress round the edge of the card with antique linen. I coloured the star and added sparkle.




I really enjoyed making these cards and would le to thank Darcy for the challenge.

Hope you enjoyed your visit, thank you for looking. Please leave your comments xxx
