Perfect Pastimes

P1070247

Welcome

When Art Impressions released their new challenge – Perfect Pastimes”, I could think of nothing better than spending time with FRIENDS!

The central image, from Art Impressions – Wine Tasters, was stamped on white card and Distress water coloured.  A second image was stamped using AI Under My Umbrella Stamp Set, but only the corners required water colouring.

Black photo frames from from Kaisercraft – Decorative Die- Polaroid.  They were then glued across the images, to highlight the main aspects, and trimmed so it  looked like a photo.

A piece of designer paper was added to a larger than normal top folding card and the sentiment from AI Under My Umbrella set was stamped at the bottom.

The photos are then attached to the card front.

I live in sunny Queensland, Australia with my husband and daughter. Since I was a child, I have always loved to create and have enjoyed all kinds of crafts, sewing and painting. China painting helped develop my understanding of colour and design. Over the last few years card making has taken up a major part of my crafting time as I love to play with new techniques and mediums. Since beginning my blog, entering various challenges has encouraged me to grow my skills and creativity.
