August 2017 - Blues and Greens

 

Welcome everyone to our August Challenge.

Our theme this month is "Blues & Greens", chosen by the lovely Corrie

 

Hello everyone, 

and welcome to my Challenge. For this month's theme I chose one of my favourite colour combinations: greens and blues. I would love to see you create something in these colours and don't forget you could just win a GBP 20,- voucher to spend in the shop ! 

I you'd like to know how I made this then hop over to my BLOG and I'll tell you all about it! 

I will be back in a few days with another project !

"Blues and Greens" - what a beautiful colour combi!

Okay, I decided to add some red too, but  this makes the blue/green background pop out even more I think.

For my first project this month I made a Fantasy card. I had so much fun! If you want to know how it came together, please visit my blog.

Have a wonderful holiday month!

Well, it's birthday season again around here, so it's back to the craft room for me - cloud bathing was getting a little bit boring anyway!

You can't beat a little bit of Tim Holtz when it comes to a 'guy card', and I've teamed his stamps with his stencils, inks, and dies. More details can be found here at Sue The Iron.

Thank you, Corrie, for the fun challenge, and have a fun week everyone! x

I've been having fun layering up some blues and greens media paints to create a mixed media background and a panel for the cover of a new journal I am in the process of making.

If you'd like to see how the layers unfold I would be very pleased to see you at Bumblebees and Butterflies where I have the process steps and more photos to go with the details.

Thanks for this great theme Corrie I have always loved blue and green together but I just don't use them that often, so it was lovely to play with them again.

A glasses case is a useful gift idea and also great way to get your crafting skills seen by lots of people, unwittingly advertised by your gift recipient....!

 

 

Come and read the details on how I made this and see more pics on my blog !

I love the colour combination of blue and green (green is my very favourite colour!) and often use them together. For this month I wanted create a layered look from the image to the tag to the background allowing the colours to be distinct and also harmonious by carrying the leaf stamp across both. i'm looking forward to seeing how you interpret this month's theme.

Blue and green are 2 of my favourite colours so I was delighted with Corrie's theme for August. There is so much scope for inspiration using these colours. I have made a male and female card this month..this is the male one today. I have all the details and a step by step if you would like to travel pop over to my blog here. I will share my female card later in the month. Enjoy the summer holidays and your summer crafting 😎.

Bye for now,

Hello All, I have made a mini canvas board as a birthday card for our August challenge: Blue and green. For this canvas I used Tim Holtz's stencil and stamps, and of course many shades of Tim's blue and green markers. If you want to know more about my canvas, please hop on my blog. Thank you!

Blue and green meant an underwater scene for me - and here it is. There is a step by step on my blog here if you would like to pop over! I do hope you can join us! Hugs rachel x

Blue and Green are one of my favourite colour combinations so I was thrilled to create a journal page 

using one of my own stamps now available in store and this gorgeous colour combo.

Take care
