My Sheri Crafts - Guest Designer

Hello Everyone!

Well I am piling it on today folks, as I throw my second card of the day at you. I do hope you will visit my earlier post and meet the newest member of my family!

I am excited to share this card with you, as it was made for my Guest Designer spot at the fabulous challenge blog My Sheri Crafts Blog. The current theme is "THINKING OF YOU". I thought I would let my "Bold Angel" take control for this one, she gets cranky if I don't take turns! lol





Thought I would whip up a batch of homemade faux wood planks for this card. Recipe included such things as beige and white paints, glue, ink sprays and some dark brown inks in various shades. I do hope to get a video done on various techniques for this at some point.



The green plaid paper and stamped flowers are from Forever in Time, it's been spritzed with Distress ink spray Twisted Citron. The doily edge punch is Martha Stewart, the Whimsy Circle Doily is from Memory Box, the leaves are from Cheery Lynn and the sentiment is from Kaisercraft.

The laces are hand dyed, the frame is made from crafter's clay, the flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts, and the gorgeous yellow rose image is from my wonderful and talented friend Sanderijn of Live, Laugh, Love.







UPDATE:
My card won an award in the following wonderful challenge:


***

To continue with our winter programming... Have you ever wondered what the true definition of 'ironic' is? Ironic is, not being able to read the warning sign about the ice, because of all the ice obstructing the warning sign!!  HELLLOOOO!










I really look forward to not having to watch my squirrels balancing on this icy railing and running across those icy branches! Yipes! Didn't seem to bother Chocolate Charlie or Mini Mike today! Bless their little hearts!





I do hope you have a minute to visit my earlier post. Here is the quick link - http://bit.ly/1S7o4sL

  11. Hi Pamellia, you've done it again another gorgeous card. I had to grin about the sign as my husband once missed a sign covered in snow. He ended up pulling a police car out of the edge of the road because he was stuck in the snow! Have a great Easter, Angela x

  18. Hi Pamellia
    Its not too bold chuck. All the colours and embellishments compliment each either beautifully.
    Your furry family is certainly expanding. Hope that Al Pacino and Bob the Spaz are still visiting.
    Have a wonderful Easter weekend.

    1. Thanks so much Ang! Sadly, I haven't seen hide nor hair of Bob the Spaz in several months. I like to think that he found himself a lovely home somewhere with lots of peanuts available, but the sad reality is that only 22% of squirrels survive their first winter here in Ontario. I try not to think about that though. Big hugs and Happy Easter my friend :)

  29. Be still my heart! This is a looker and so wonderfully detailed. Your faux wood is amazeballs Bubbles! The little clothespin and butterfly are fantabulous. Your mold use is stunning and that could be a fun video. Awesome sauce pictures.

    Seems like Mini Mike and Chocolate Charlie are like stealthy ninjas running through an obstacle and seizing the win with a handful of tummies. Hugz to you muffin! ~Doc

  44. Such a beautiful Spring card, I love those faux planks - looking forward to a tutorial if you get the time. I am determined to have a play in April, my orders are almost up to date and I think I might just be able to have some 'me' crafting where I get to make what I want in any style I fancy rather than commissions - looking forward to that too.
    Enjoy your Easter Sunday

  58. You are a busy bee today and you are such a talented lady, I could never come up with two totally different designs on the same day. If I make two or more cards at the same time they look related - something about the eyes I think! But not you, this is so different from this mornings post and yet still utterly brilliant. I love your fake wood effects, here creating a wonderful back drop and the fabulous zesty colours you have used in this design really pop against the dark wood.

    Amazing photography, you have really captured your winter wonderland.

    Dionne xx

    PS Congratulations on your GD spot.

  60. Heya! Guess who made it here! Yup, moi. ;) I'm awake in the middle of the might (not by my choice!) and have some free minutes to write a comment or two. :) I haven't been able to visit blogs for over a month, so I missed quite a lot, but I'm glad to be here now to have a quick look at at least some of your most recent creations.
    This card just screams spring. All those flowers an butterflies. Very beautiful! I can't wait for the tutorial on those wooden planks. I love how they look!
    Are those nature pics recent? Do you have snow and such cold weather NOW?! I mean, it does look Nice, but with april just around the corner one would think Spring should be here, not Winter.
    Have a great day! Hugs!!!

  65. Oh my... your faux wood planks look totally real Pamellia - just fabulously done. Love the eyelet lace with the tips of yellow - reminds me of days gone by when I used to use lace on everything I did!! Such wonderful colors and just a LUSCIOUSLY LOVELY card in every way -for sure.

    Love seeing ChocCharlie and MiniMike - eheheheh!! They look fat and sassy for sure. And your photos... wow... I mean - totally seems like you are getting good enough with that camera to win prizes girl. Love that picture of the red stem with the frozen drip - breathtakingly lovely. XXj
