The tin man gets shrunk

Hello it's Jane here again with some more inspiration for you for our current "Opposites" challenge.
Today I went with the words Little/Large.
Yes it appears that my Visible Image stamps tin man from the Oz series has a little friend and also that his oil tin and hearts have shrunk too...ooops!
If you would like to see how I made this just pop over to my blog here and all will be revealed. No smoke and mirrors I promise 😉

Bye for now,

May 2019 - Opposites

Welcome everyone to our May Challenge 
Our theme this month is Opposites, chosen by the lovely Teresa. We love you taking part in our challenges so this month, don't forget Opposites must be part of your projects to be in with a chance to win a £20 Gift Voucher.

Hello and welcome to a new challenge! Teresa here and this month I have chosen the theme of Opposites. Here is my Past and Future card:



Please pop over to my blog for more details. I look forward to seeing what you think up for this challenge.
Happy May to you all.
Here is my first project for the Opposites challenge


I have chosen light and dark for the first set of opposites!
Pop over to my blog for more information and to see how I created this card.

May is here and it's time for the temperatures to rise and me to get out to work in my garden and my outside studio again..bliss. My opposites for the new challenge for this month are the words visible/invisible. 
I used the Visible Image (no pun intended) Cheshire cat stamp set from the Wonderland series.
My cat appears to have been joined by 2 invisible friends 😁 If you would like to see how I made my card just say the magic words.. "We're all mad here" (as said by the Cheshire cat to Alice).....and you will be transported over to my blog here.
Bye for now,

Sue
Good morning and a very happy May, Summer is now on it's way! Here is my first piece for our new 'Opposites' challenge, a page for my tag book.


In case you can't tell my opposites are 'colour' and 'black and white'. I remember very well getting our first colour TV as a child. The case was the size of a small planet and the actual screen was tiny by todays standards but we though it was amazing! There are more photo's here over on my blog.
Have a wonderful May, and thanks very much for looking x

Hello and welcome to May!
The theme this month is a very interesting one I find and I decided to choose "matte and glossy" as my opposites.
I made two couples of ATCs, here you can see one of them:


If you want to see the other one, please hop to my blog. There you will find a short video, which shows you the glossy effect of the silhouettes a bit better.
I´m curious, what opposites you will show us!

Corrie
Hello everyone,

Tall and short, male and female, red and green -

My choice of opposites could come straight from the weather report, yes in the UK we've had sunshine and rain on the same day, sometimes more than once in the day!

Keep A Green Bough

Good morning and a very happy Good Friday, I hope it's a sunny one. It's Sue here with my second piece for our Spring/Easter themed challenge which I made before we went away at the end of February. There was snow on the ground and I was longing for sunshine.


My first piece was quite C&S, but normal service has been resumed with lots of Dina Wakley goodies.
There are lots more pictures here over on my blog.
Have a wonderful Easter, and thanks very much for looking x

Hello crafty peeps, Evelyn here today!
It´s time to choose the winners of the Letters and/or Numbers challenge I hosted last month - and believe me, I had a hard time choosing only three, there were so many fabulous entries! So thanks to all of you, given us all these eye candies 💕
Carte fleur bleue
What a wonderful card! Such a striking background and I love this wonderful flower with all these numbers on it´s petals and the lovely pearl ring around the middle.

This card catched my eyes immediatly. I really love the flying letters, jumping right out of the typewriter to build words, amazing idea!

I love this page! The woman in black and white seems to run right into the gorgeous background with these yummy subtitle stenciled letters.

Special mentioned:

Sara Emily Barker Artist Trading Coins and Booklet Tutorial Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Sprays https://sarascloset1.blogspot.com/2019/03/artist-trading-coins-and-booklet-with.html 1
Sara Emily made this gorgeous little booklet with wonderful ATCoins inside! I love the vintage look and the pockets for the ATCoins are made so clever. Wonderful project!

That´s it for today, congrats to all the winners, I wish I could have picked some more!

Thank you for your visit and have a nice day!
