Tuesday at the Outlawz!

Yep, it's Tuesday again so it has to be the Color Challenge and this week it was my choice of inspirational picture and here it is:

For my card I used an image from Bugaboo that I coloured with Promarkers:

 

I teamed him up with some grey and gold striped papers and added some chipboard letters with a bit of bling!

 



I edged my little bear with some silver ball chain and used a bit of red ink around the edges of the image - and there he is!

Hoope you liked todays card and I really hope you will join us at the Outlawz for this week's colour challenge - hope to see you there!!

Thanks for stopping by and I hope to see you again soon!

Love and Marriage

The new challenge at Eclectic Ellapu is hosted by Claire from the Pink Team and this weeks theme is " Congratulations"

 

 

Some time ago I did the blog hop for those wonderful ladies over at D4SJ and I won a digi - well this digi!

 

 

I have to say I was thrilled to bits to win this lovely image and I played around with it for a while before I settled on this card

 

 

I used a shaped card and some delish papers from Fizzy Moon from Trimcraft. I used some Alphabet stamps to make the Mr and Mrs which are heat embossed with silver along with the Wedding Wishes stamp.

 

I coloured the image with Promarkers and used some very fine transluscent glitter with a hint of gold on her veil and dress - I just love his hand!

 

This is the outside of the card when closed

 

 

I finished the outside with another of the gorgeous papers from Fizzy Moon and added some pearl trim, white bows and some diamond hearts!

 

I hope you will come over to Eclectic Ellapu and join in this wonderful challenge - go and look at the fabulous projects our DT have come up with for your inspiration!

Sunny!

It actually was sunny today but the sunny I'm about to show you has nothing to do with the weather!
This is Sunny, she is the freebie image on the Lacy Sunshine Challenge blog and is one of the flowerpot poppets that the very talented artist Heather Valentin has created as her latest digi range, you can find  her digi's at her shop here. Definitely worth checking out!

I used some paper from the Paper Cellar for my background and some yellow embossed card. I added some touches of red with my ribbon and bling.

I coloured her up with Promarkers and I think she is so cute growing out of her pot!

I made this card specifically to enter into the challenge over at the Lacy Sunshine Challenge blog and this weeks theme is anything goes so why not pop over and join in!

Definitely Black, White and Red All Over!

Happy Wednesday!

There's a new challenge started at Penny's Paper Crafty. This week's challenge is to make a project using only black, white and red (you can use other colours in your image), now that's a fab colour combo and could be made up for every sort of card or project imaginable!

Our sponsor this week is Bugaboo, who kindly gave the DT some digi's to play with!

For my card I have used this cute little fella

isn't he just too cute?

I coloured the image using Promarkers and for the background I used a selection of black and white papers that came from a very reasonably priced pack I picked up from the Range - I think they're by Papermania. I layered my base card with some red then some black and white. I cut four pieces of black and white paper and layered them onto some red then did some paper weaving! I inked the edges of the image with some red then added some red stars!

I hope you will come over to Penny's and join in the fun this week - I can't wait to see what you all make!

Thanks for stopping by I appreciate your visit and hope to see you again soon!

Yay! It's Tuesday.......

And I have to go back to work boo hoo!, but it is the new colour challenge over at the Outlawz so there is a silver lining if you look for it!!

This week colour pallete and inspirational picture was chosen by Ursula

now aren't they fab colours and a great twist!

For my image I have uesed a CDS digi, coloured with Promarkers. I added some embossed lavender paper behind the image and mounted it all on a lavender striped paper from my stash. The sentiment is a stamp from  one of the art deco sets from Docraft.

I hope you will come over and join in this challenge at the Outlawz, I'd love tosee what you make!

Hope to see you there!

Nana Vic's New Challenge

Hello crafts friends!

The new Nana Vic challenges has started over at Lady Annes and I am so late with my post for reasons I mentioned earlier!

Nana Vic challenges are anything goes but if you use a Nana Vic image you get a $12 prize instead of $10 - so what are you waiting for!

For my card I have combined two images, the beautiful lattice and rose border and Nana Vic writing:

I layered the frame up with some shades of pink and used an alphabet paper from Papermania for the background, apart from that I added some bling to the corners that have been cut with a Martha Stewart punch and as ever I coloured the images with Promarkers!

I have to say these frames are fabulous and I can see a million and one uses for them combined with other images they are fantastic! They would be good to frame a digital photo as well - let your imagination run wild!!

I hope you will join in the Nana Vic Challenge over at Lady Annes (click the page above to go there) come on over and see the wonderful inspiration from the DT and join in the fun!

Hope to see you there!

Thanks for stopping by I appreciate your visit and hope to see you again soon!

Better Late than Never.....

Hello everyone, the new challenges have started over at Lady Annes and I am running sooo late! I had family here for Easter so nothing got done and I am now playing catch up on top of that a cup of tea mysteriously got knocked over and ruined all the cards I had ready to photograph - yikes! There was some frantic colouring going on in our house I can tell you!!

On to the challenges:

Firstly we have the Stamp challenge and this month we are sponsored by Stamp and Doodle and my card features one of their new images:

Now isn't this every little girl? I can remember getting one or two whoopings for messing in my mum's wardrobe!
I used some digital paper from Nit Wits and some pink mulberry paper, some pink border that I have had for ever and I think it was from Lakeland when they did craft stuff! The big heart is actually a mirror but doesn't show up in the photo, I added a few sparkly flowers and some metallic letters (the flowers and letters are all the same colour of cerise). I coloured the image with Promarkers

I really hope you will pop over and join in this challenge, it is anything goes as long as you use a stamped or digi image so come on over and join in the fun, the challenge now runs from the first of the month to the last of the month so its easy to keep track - see you there!

Thanks for stopping by, I hope to see you again soon!
