Are you ready for Christmas or are you starting to panic, don’t stress cause I have a card that is sooooo simple and you can make multiples in flash.  Now, tell me does it get any easier than this?  To be honest I felt like I was channeling my inner Ardyth, thanks for the inspiration!

Welcome to patterned paper at Muse!

~ lostinpaper ~ 19 Comments

Not sure if I may have just overdone it a little….   well, I did say that I wanted to use some patterned paper and so I did, a LOT of it lol.  I made a real mess creating this and at one point I couldn’t find my baby sheep at all, some hurried cleaning and he was luckily located all happy and ready to sit on the card front.

I can’t wait to see how this inspires you and maybe you can use just a little of your paper stash too!

~ lostinpaper ~ 18 Comments

Slight Oops, before I start, it any of you are wondering where those little Panda’s have gone….   consider it a sneak peek but I promise they will be back next week, just ‘user error’ on the technical front here.  Now back to your usual viewing…

So I’ve been put up for a challenge from MicahsCrafts and if you haven’t met him yet then you really are missing out, he has the funnest Youtube channel and his current self challenge is a 10 minute Craft Flash Dash…     LOVE it!

I wasn’t too sure if I was up for the challenge, and looking at my card now I would definitely love to tweak it just a little, but that’s the joy of only 10 minutes.  I just love that it stops me from procrastinating for literally hours sometimes lol.  So thanks again for the inspiration Micah!

I was also inspired by the sweet colours and flowers from Anita’s Muse card this week as well as focusing on Lisa’s Wanna Sketch (Congrats GF, can’t believe it’s No. 20 already)!

Thanks again for visiting, see you again real soon.

Hello there, time for some butterfly triangles at Muse today and I had so much fun making this card…   but I also  have a couple of other ideas, what would it look like with all the butterfly triangles popped up?  or I was thinking maybe some glossy accents just over the butterfly itself to add dimension?

I can’t wait to see how this inspires you!

Oh WOW I just adore these two stamp sets from Altenew and I’ve had this idea in my head for what seems like ages.  So I thought I would share it with you at Muse because I cannot wait to see how this inspires you!

Today at Muse I was thinking that it time for some flowers and with an untouched amazing set of stamps from WPlus9 (I know sacrilege right…  I need to join Darnell’s NBUS challenge lol) called Fresh Cut Florals it was easy.  So it’s one layered with some pencil shading for depth otherwise a fairly simple design.

 I can’t wait to see how this inspires you!

Graffiti at Muse!

~ lostinpaper ~ 21 Comments

This week for Muse I wanted to share a card I made for a guy who was leaving at work (for some reason I’m the designated creator of cards for all occasions at work…  which I’m sure may ring true to many of you as well lol)

This is a fun graffiti technique that was shared by Shari Carroll at the Online Card Class, and I especially love it for masculine designs.  I hope you have some fun with it and I can’t wait to see how you are inspired.

I have a quick share today, I combined a few fun challenges to create this card and it looks absolutely nothing like the original plan….  it started out as a birthday cake but that’s a long story so I won’t bore you with the details lol.

Anyhoo, I created my own background for the current Build a Background challenge at ABNH, using the colour and star inspiration from Jacquie’s card at Muse and finally Lisa’s Wanna Sketch for the layout (which I flipped)….  phew…

I’m still out to lunch on this one but it was fun to make.  Hope you have a great weekend planned, I’m on 4 days off and hope to get a little crafty.
