City Crafter 304

Hello and Good morning ... I hope your week is off to a good start

Today my sweet friend Stella is hosting the challenge at City Crafter with the theme
On Cloud Nine 


Stella is actually coming to stay with me in a few weeks time and we'll both be on cloud nine!
 
So the challenge is to create a project that features a cloud or clouds 
This is what I came up with
 
 
I've used a new die "Home" by Sweet Pea Designs on my card and Memory Box cloud dies - The word 'New' was cut on my Cameo
 
 
As you can see I cut the clouds twice - I thought it would be fun to give them a little definition
I also die cut 'Home' a few times and layered it up, then cut just the house part again using up some scraps of paper to make the little house stand out
 
 
I'm thrilled to say that our Guest Designer this week is Marie of Baileyrosy.com
Marie was our winner from week 297 and although she lives in Greece, this talented lady hails from right here in my home town of Liverpool! Please hop on over and say Hi and check out her beautiful creations...
 
Don't forget to go visit the City Crafter Blog to see what the rest of the team are sharing this week and link up your Cloud creations with us for a chance to be our next Guest Designer
 
Have a lovely day and take care
 
~ Ros ~

I really like that you layered the clouds and that you used designer paper on the little house in the "Home" die cut. Your stamping really adds a great element to the card too Ros. Hugs!

Brilliant card. I love the effect of the layering, especially the clouds.

Marina said...

What amazingly skilled die-cutting! All your ideas give the card such interest.

I like the way you created the word HOME. Such a lovely scene. The birds have stolen my heart, thank you for using them often (-:

Barbara said...

Very pretty and yes, the fact that the clouds have a little dimension makes all the difference!

Stella said...

Your take on the theme is lovely. I love that house die and the dimension you added by cutting the clouds twice. It's a a gem!
