More Furry Friends!

The new challenge has started at Eclectic Ellapu and the challenge from the Pink Team was chosen by our lovely Asha and she would like to meet your furry friends, I know Asha loves pets and has a couple of gorgeous four legged friends!

For my card I used a cute vintage image that I've had for ages, I don't remember where I got it from!

I used some gorgeous paper from Michelle Roos, I do love her papers. The base card is mushroom pearl and the background is matted onto green and kraft. The image is matted onto kraft and rust, the tag is cut from kraft and heat embossed. The image was printed onto white card and I've inked it with about four shades of brown!

Well these are my furry friends now come on over and let us meet yours!

See you there!!

A Little Embossing

The new challenge at Penny's Paper Crafty would like to see your projects that have embossing on them, either dry or heat, that's so easy as we all use embossing!

I got to use this lovely image from Stamp Art by Kathryne, Owl-Ways Yours.

 I coloured the image with a variety of alcohol markers then cut it out with a flower shaped die. I edged the die with some pink glitter. My base card is cream pearl and I used a band of the base card to emboss and added through the middle, the cute flowers are cut from a die that came free on a craft mag, I gave them a little glitter at the centre too!

This is such a cute image and can be used for lots of occasions do check it out and the bonus is it's only $1!

Hope to see you at Penny's!

Make a Scene!

Well when this came up as a twist I thought - I can do that, lol! I, obviously, wasn't thinking of the same "Scene" that Ina was when she set the challenge!!!

Well we have a three from five week this week and all those colours work so well with each other. FOr my card I have used another great image from Stitchy Bear Digi Outlet, Hope Jacare Doodles Home is Where the Heart Is.

I fell in love with this image, having lived through the Sixties (I was at Art School for part of them!) and being still here to tell the tale, this really reminded me of that period!  I did supplement my allowance and produce doodles  for a greetings card company at that time, I started of getting a whole pound for an image that took me an age to draw! I then took commissions for a fiver, big earner that I was! So as you can tell this image brought back a lot of memories!
Coloured with a variety of alcohol markers, the image is layered onto some stone grey card and the background is a soft turquoise mounted onto rose pink card, with a few finishing touches in all three colours.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you will come over and join us at the Colour Challenge at the Outlawz this week for this fun challenge.

Monday, Monday.....

means the new challenge has started at Digi Sketch Challenge! The theme for this challenge is "Shades of Blue" - you can all do that and we have another gorgeous sketch for you

This challenge is being sponsored by Scrappers Delight and we got to play with some of their beautiful images

Isn't she gorgeous! She is Crafty Honey markers and is just working on her latest creation!

I used some metallised card as my base card then layered up with two shades of blue then used the fabric type spotted paper as my centre circle, I coloured the image with Promarkers, The greating is a stamp by LOTV  and came free on a mag, the most useful stamp ever! I finished her off with some shades of blue gems.

I hope you come over and join us in this latest fun challenge - hope to see you there!

Peaches

The new challenge at Penny's is to use your favourite embellishment (tell us what it is in your post). Mine is easy - I love bling, any shape or style and colours; my, my I have so much bling I just wish it was real!

Our sponsors this week are Bugaboo and Eureka. I got to play with this cute, cute image from Bugaboo

Meet Peaches - isn't she adorable!, I coloured her with a variety of alcohol markers then cut her out with the shaped die, I also cut another piece with the same die from the gorgeous sparkly orange. I used some Vintage Fairy Belle paper as the background matted onto sone brown spotted paper, then I added lots of bling!

I hope you will come over and join us at Penny's Paper Crafty for this latest challenge - hope to see you there!

Child's Play!

Yep, we are having a child's card theme this week at the Outlawz Colour Challenge!

Ursula chose our great inspirational picture and the theme - how cute is that!

Wouldn't we all like to be that age again playing in the summer!

We have Stitchy Bear Digital Outlet as our sponsor this month and we got to play with some lovely digis! I used Butterfly Love for this card

Isn't she just too sweet! I coloured her with Promarkers and used the out of the box technique to cut her out with the large flower die. I added a banner cut from a Signature die and the butterflies are also Signature dies. The little hearts are the cut outs from the banner, waste not want not! I used a base card of pearlised red then added the glittered butterflies and banner, the fairy also has glittered wings, shame it doesn't show up well in photo's. I found some really old number dies that I cut the number from.

I do hope you will come over and join us this week! Don't forget you have a chance of winning some digis from our fabulous sponsor!
