iron craft

A little while ago the lovely Chaitali contacted me to ask if I'd be interested in her challenge based on the Iron Chef show. What a fabulous idea! Two designers pitting themselves against each other while using some of the same elements; for our Iron Craft challenge we settled on the There She Goes set Oh Snap and the design from CAS(E) This Sketch #7.

I've used a couple of the larger cameras from the Oh Snap set in the past, so today I thought I'd turn my attentions to one of the smaller images. I pulled out my Simon Says Stamp water colour paper and white heat embossed three cameras before using Inktense pencils and loosely washing them with colour. I pulled the rainbow colours down onto some little strips of card and added glossy accents to these and some die cut black hearts too.

Now you have to see what Chaitali has made! I can't wait to see - she has tantalised me with this sneak peek!

Now onto my other news: I'm making some changes for my blog! I'm planning on a new home for my crafty pursuits and I'm hoping to make the move soon! So if things look a bit odd around these parts then please bear with me. I am attempting to do everything myself which has been a steep learning curve but I've actually really enjoyed the process. I will be back soon with more details but in the meantime I'm crossing my fingers that it all goes smoothly :)

Supplies: Stamps - There She Goes oh snap, Hero Arts tweed pattern s5654; Inks - Versamark, Versafine onyx black; Card - Simon Says Stamp water color paper sss69, Papertrey Ink true black, kraft, new leaf, Stampin' Up island indigo; Derwent inktense pencils; Hero Arts white embossing powder; Dies - Simon Says Stamp holiday shapes s131

tsg sneak peek day 4 and a farewell

This is my second post today, please scroll down for my CAS-ual Fridays post :)

Our final set for this month was designed by our AMAZING owner, Jessica Knutsen. This gorgeous tree with heart shaped leaves is perfect for not only telling someone you love them, but for saying thanks from the bottom of your heart. It could be used for so much more, too!!

Heartfelt Thanks is a 3x4 set that includes a total of 5 stamps and will sell for $9.00.

How sweet is that tree! I coloured the heart leaves with conversation hearts in mind!

In my CAS-ual Fridays post today, I explained that I am stepping down from a couple of Design Teams and so it with sadness that I have to say that this is my last post for There She Goes :( I wish I had enough hours in the day to be able to craft as much as I'd like to but at the moment that just isn't the case. It is with heartfelt thanks to Jessica for giving me such a wonderful opportunity and all the team for the fabulous chat behind the scenes and for wowing me continuously with their creations.

Be My Valentine is a 3x4 set that includes a total of 5 stamps and will sell for $9.00.

Doesn't this little guy just look like he's got mischief on his mind LOL! With this in mind I tried to give him a sort of messy hair do just like my own little angel has when he's been charging around with a bow and arrow in his hand! 

Then as an extra card I played with the little arrow image and a colour gradient :)

Steampunk is one of our FAVORITE styles here at There She Goes, so when we saw the new Get In Gear set from Torico, we all squealed with delight. She is so sassy, funky, and FABULOUS. Also, the gears included in this set could TOTALLY be used for a CAS boys card, or building a background. SO versatile!

Britain was on such a high in 2012 with royal celebrations and sporting successes that I thought it only fitting to give the Boot Camp set a British angle :)

tsg sneak peek day 1

It’s no secret, we are DEFINITELY in love with everything Torico does at There She Goes, and we know you are, too. This month she has honored us by creating a set that we have been begging for…meet The Doxie with Moxie!! SUPER cute dachshunds, along with several sentiments, outfits, and even a city scene for our more “elegant” pups, this set is just TOO much fun.

The Doxie with Moxie is a 4x8 set that includes a total of 32 stamps and will sell for $18.00.

When brainstorming The Doxie with Moxie set, there was a lot of chatter about sentiments…and some of them took a turn for the funny, but…risqué, lol! We couldn’t live without them, so we decided to create the Size Matters set. It’s not for everyone, but it’s definitely funny!!

Size Matters is a 3x4 set that includes 7 stamps for $9.00.

Oh my I love the way Torico's mind works! I created a little scene for my card today. 

I layered the cityscape in grey and black and then added a fun stripy patterned paper pavement onto which I added the lamp post. Finally I popped up with foam adhesive the two pups which I had coloured with Copics. Those dachshunds just make me smile :)
