Hostess Monday with Digital Delights


My Grass
I thought I would share with you how I colour the grass in my images ...I got the idea from a tutorial on Pops Blog  some time ago, so thanks Pops
I start with three colours  Tea Green-Forest Green-Pear Green,
starting with pear green I just flick upwards with my marker,

I then go in with forest green still flicking up

 Finally finish with Tea Green filling all white spaces.



In this photo I have filled in the sky with chalk and used a spellbinder die
to cut an oval

And this is my finished card.I do hope you like it.xxx

Technique Focus for CBN

Hello to you all  I am here today with my Technique Focus for the Crafty Bloggers Network.I have decided to show you how I make a 
Centre fold card....
You will need a piece of card 5.5 inches x 11 inches
A paper trimmer
Something to score with I used my paper trimmer
Patterned paper
Image

1. Line up your card in your trimmer 1inch across and 1inch down and cut from 1”to 6.5”…flip the card over and repeat down the other side

2. You are now going to score across these cut lines along the 1” strips from the
 Edge to the cut line at 1” 2” and 6.5”on both sides

3. Score across the centre at 5.5”


4. Now fold all the score lines  as pictured 


You can now finish off with paper and an image...
Here is my finished card

Well I hope you could follow this little tutorial.xxx
