June Challenge by Amanda

Hi everyone, Amanda here with my take on this month's challenge - Here Come the Boys.  Our sponsor for June is Delicious Doodles, and I've chosen their exquisitely detailed Vintage Spitfire image, as vintage planes are a bit of an obsession for me.  It's a great image if you're not that keen on colouring in, as all the shading's done for you.  I've added just a hint of colour to mine using my beloved watercolour pencils.

My project is a circular easel card inspired by the WWII RAF roundel.  I say 'inspired by' because I've taken liberties with the sizes of the circles - err, I did mention my aircraft obsession, didn't I? :-)  The base of my easel card is covered with a map of the area around Eastleigh, which is where the first Spitfires were built.  Hmm, perhaps I should have kept that bit of geeky obsessiveness to myself...

I hope you like it.  More details are on my blog, including close-ups of how the Spitfire is attached (it bounces around really nicely!).  Happy crafting!

Here come the Boys Challenge - Day 9

Hello everyone, it's Michelle here and ready for Day 9 of our Here Come the Boys monthly challenge at The Crafting Cafe!

I LOVE making masculine cards, I realize that seems to be out of the norm for most but I have more difficulty with frilly & feminine cards!

Our sponsor for this challenge is Delicious Doodles and the lucky winner will receive 4 images of their choice!

I chose to work with Vintage Norton Bike.  I decided not to color to the image myself, rather I formatted the image from black to brown.  The papers are from the Back to Backs collection by Bo Bunny, the tiles are from Tim Holtz and the rest of the embellies are from my stash.

Father's Day is almost here so get your mojo going and start creating!

Marleen DT.

Hi everyone..

Marleen here... :-)

Its my turn to show what I have made for this months challenge.

The fantastic image I have used is from this months sponcer

Delicious Doodles

Here is what i have made:

 I kept it simple. Personally I find mens cards work best when they are kept simple.

 An amazing digi stamp from Delicious Doodles.

 I used my new toy, a present from my hubby. The clock & hands die from Marianne Designs.

  I used an embossing folder to create the back ground.

 

And that is it.

I hope you like what I made.

Thank you fro stopping by & for any comments.
