Another "get" wordy" make for our January CVC challenge

Good morning. I am here with my 2nd design team make for our January "Get wordy" challenge over in the Country View Crafts  Challenges Facebook group.  I am this host this month and I would like to see a sentiment or some words on your entries. You can enter up to 5 times as you like as long as you use products or brands which are stocked on the Country View Website. 

 The monthly challenges are now being hosted over on Facebook as it makes it easier for everyone who wants to enter, to do so. You don't need a blog or an Instagram account, just head over to the group and join in with the fun! The link is here and if you are not already a member just request to join and we will love to welcome you over there. It will also be a place you can see Country View Craft products, the latest releases etc etc. We have a happy membership of over 260 crafters already and we are growing every day. 

I try to link up the products I use in my posts but obviously stock on the CVC website sells out quickly . Some may be out of stock when you click on the links. If they are just fill in the email notification and you will be emailed when they are back in stock. This is the link to the website .

I decided to use the beautiful Visible Image "A friend like you" stamp set which is available here. It has  gorgeous images and very positive words in it.

This is what I got up to;

I used a distress ink marbled shaving foam background from my stash and die cut an oval. I then cut a piece of blue card for underneath. 

I stamped and clear heat embossed the words at the top and bottom of the aperture

I then positioned the aperture and stamped the flower and vase on the blue card. 

I stamped the flower head a 2nd time onto inky mop up card and cut it out. 

Then I simply put the card together and decoupaged the flower head on top.  I added some die cut stars and white gel pen accents as finishing details.

Here is the finished card again. 

with a couple of close ups



and one final shot;


I really hope that I may have inspired you to join in with the "Get wordy" fun. Do head over to the challenge on Facebook here.  Below is the amazing prize for one randomly selected winner. It's a fab bundle of "words" stamps and chipboard words by Visible Image, Tracy Easson and 49 and Market all perfect for your 2024 crafting.


Remember you can find me most days over on Instagram here @jane.tyrrell where I do share many, many more makes then I have the time to blog. 

And just to show how I don't waste anything I was able to make a 2nd card for Dotty's with the left over die cut!


Bye for now,

  1. Love your shaving foam background. I spent the weekend embossing and die cutting all my scraps of white paper up and was thinking that the shaving foam technique would be a quick and easy way of getting colour onto them to then use on cards. Hugs Mrs A.
