August DT cards for SSW2

Here are my DT cards for Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 for August 2024.

Firstly sketch 283

I used Sending Smiles stamps stamped with Memento Ink in Dandelion, Tangelo, Rose Bud and Bamboo Leaves for the flowers and sentiment.

Dies are Sending Dies from Stampin up for the flowers and and sentiment, the oval dies are Polkadoodles.

The papers are Brights DSP 2024 from Stampin Up

Then embellished with some glossies from Julie Hickey.

The card is on a 148x148mm card base.

My second card was made for a birthday back in March, the recipient enjoys his garden.

It uses the following

Craft Creations decoupage sheet - Gardeners Corner

Papers are old Craftwork Cards Springtime, sentiment and card candi are also Craftwork Cards.

I made the 7x7 card base from cardstock.

It's been a busy month as I was covering someone elses role at work for a couple of weeks which wore me out and now I am catching up with my own work. I must get more organised on the blogging front though, I have quite a few cards I haven't shared.

Anyway I will be back on Sunday with my card for Critter Crazy and might try to get back before then.

I am entering my cards in the following challenges

Allsorts challenge blog  #795 - Anything Goes option

This is my DT card for Critter Crazy whcih went live on Friday.

It's a slide and reveal card using a Paddington Bear image which came from Craft Stash. The numbers are from an old Tonic set

Then when you pull the tab the sentiment from Woodware is revealed and the topper stands up. I used dies from Made to Surprise for the mechanism.

Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 Sketch 282

 Here is my second card for the current challenge at Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2.

This one uses sketch 282

It's a really simple sketch and a really simple card

The image is from an old Lili of the Valley Artpad - Christmas Cuties

Paper is Polkadoodles Gnome for Christmas

Sentiment - A Craftwork Cards label which I have chopped down.

Here is the sketch

I've struggled a bit recently with the heat in my craft room as it is up in the dormer so blogging has been somewhat neglected recently and I am a bit behind with the cards I need to make so I need to get back ahead with things but work may interfere with that in the next couple of weeks so we'll see.
