Aall & Create Thrinchie Challenge
So, one of my favourite crafting brands has launched a new challenge for July. Unlike Aall &Creates January challenge which asked for mini Polaroid style pieces using cutie characters, this one sees the stamps by designer Tracy Evans used on 3inch squares. There is a brand new word of inspiration for each day of the…

50th birthday card
Hiya, thanks for stopping by. This weeks project is a 50th birthday card and I new I wanted to use these fun characters by Aall & Create (#252, #253, #254). I knew I wanted to use alcohol markers to colour them but I don’t have a suitable ink pad so went with my usual Varsafine…

Shrink Plastic Charm
Hi, thanks for stopping by. Today’s project is a really quick one using shrink plastic. I wanted a way to instantly tell the difference between 2 identical art journals. I’ve used one of them to display my Polaroid Pops Challenge pieces so I thought a cutie character would be ideal. I thought this little girl…

Here we are, the penultimate day of Aall & Create January challenge. The prompt is “The Gift” so I chose #481 “Lil Love”. I stamped out the character using Nocturne Versafine Clair. I dropped my stamp and made a smudge but as I planned to colour it in, I didn’t worry. I created my background…

Polaroid Pops Challenge Day 29
Another day of the Aall & Create Polaroid Pops Challenge. The prompt for day 29 is “Transportation” so after searching my collection the only thing I could find was this little pilot guy from set #425. I stamped the pilot and a few accessories using Nocturne Versafine Clair. I also found a background amongst my…

Polaroid Pops Challenge Day 28
Here we are at day 28 of Aall & Creates Polaroid Pops Challenge and “City Streets” really stumped me at first. The Polaroid size is not really big enough to create street scene with a cutie character so I wasn’t sure what to do. I remembered seeing cards which used the masking technique to create…
