The theme month is anything related to Weddings or Graduations.  I printed some cherries and added some faces and a veil for a simple wedding card.  Saw the quote one day and thought it was perfect for lots of occasions.

CHNC Christmas - 4th June 2022

 This weeks option is to use Non traditional colours .  I have used an images from Sweet November ( Window with curtains, scene, Santa silhouette, little girl and her cat) to put together this little scene, Goodbye Santa.  I chose to do a green scene as we don't have snow where I live.  These images are great to work with as you can set up a different scene each time.  If you haven't checked out this store, do so HERE

Coloured with copic pens, paper pieced the curtains and the flooring.

CHNC Patterned Papers June 2022

For this month's patterned paper project I made a card using some floral paper from my stash and and image from QKR, called Planting a garden.

We have a good sized garden, and when covid hit us, 2020 I had delivered a large number of bulbs and planted them in a raised garden that usually held vegetables (hadn't produced much for a couple of years) and waited to see what would come the following spring, we ended with a nice display of daffodils, jonquils, irises, anemones are more. Even better in 2021.

There is a saying from Audrey Hepburn " To plant a garden is to believe in tomorrow"

Floral Card

This month a Beccy's Place,there is a freebie called May Little Flowers.  Both coloured and outline versions are available.I chose to print the image twice, one under the other and make a slimline card.

Copics have been used to colour the image and liquid pearls for the stamens.  

A scrap of striped paper has been used alongside the image.  I'm not quite sure what sentiment to add, I'll wait and see what turns up.

Love making the slimline cards, now I have a tutorial for the envelopes from Kathya Kalinine.  You can find the tutorial HERE
