Tic Tac Toe Time!

Hi Everyone

Today is the start of a new challenge over at Creative Craft Cottage 


The theme for the next fortnight is Tic Tac Toe.  In case you don't know what this is you choose three items in a row in any direction to add to your project.

The Board is here.  I chose Green, Image and Ribbon
We have some great sponsors for this challenge.  I got to work with this image called The Sweet Gardener from The Paper Shelter


I made a Birthday Card for my Mother-in-Law who has a Birthday coming up at the end of March.  I coloured the image using ProMarkers and cut it out with a Spellbinders Oval Die.  The Patterned Paper is from LOTV.  I used a Sue Wilson Die to cut out the leaves and then added some Pink Paper Flowers (to hopefully resemble the flowers in the image lol)  I added a Green Satin Ribbon and Hand Tied the Bow.  The sentiment is from Stampingallday.  I punched some pink butterflies using my X-Cut punch and added some Pearl Gems to finish.

I would like to enter this card into the following Challenges

Snow White Blues!

Hi Everyone

It is the start of a new challenge over at Craft Rocket Challenges 


The theme for the next fortnight is Anything Goes, a nice easy one for you to join in with I hope!

For my DT Inspiration project I made a notebook using one of my favourite digi stamps from MoonFlower Digi Stamps called Lilly Snow White  I have coloured her using Copics, Promarkers and Prismacolour Pencils.  I coloured her a little while ago in pinks and was going to do her traditional this time with her Yellow Skirt but I was liking using Blue and Red so stuck with that.  Guess that means I will have to colour her up again if I want to do a traditional one lol!

The covers are made from 2mm White Board and I have covered this with Bazzill Blue shade layered with a spotty paper from Scrap and Craft.  I used some leaf dies and added some paper roses and cut a lattice heart using a Joy Die.  I popped on some blue trim to the bottom of the image, cut some apples from a Poppystamps die and finished with blue pearl gems.

New Release Time!

Hi Everyone

As its the 15th of the month that means that it is the day when new images are released into the Fabrika Fantasy Store

Once again there are five this month.  A new line of images called Fantasy Pet Series has been added so some of this months releases are for this line of images.

I got to work with a couple of the Fantasy Pet new releases.  This first one is called Tommy's Fantasy Pet and I have coloured it with ProMarkers.  I went for a CAS card so that I could add a nice sentiment about being friends as these two obviously are lol!

I distressed around the edges of the image using Memento Dew Drop Ink.



This second image I have used is called Marins Fantasy Pet and I have coloured this with ProMarkers and Copics

Again I went for CAS Style as the Image doesn't need fussing up!  The sentiment I typed on the laptop before I printed the Image off.

I would like to enter this card into the following Challenges 
Inspiration Destination - Anything Goes

Thank you Fairy Much!

Hi Everyone

Today is the start of a new challenge over at CCC Digi Creations 


The theme for the next fortnight is Fairies.  Please come on over and join in with us.

Our sponsor for this challenge is Polkadoodles 



 The DT were kindly given a choice of image to work with.  I chose to work with this one called Serenity Fairy Kisses and I have coloured her using ProMarkers, Copics & Prismacolour Pencils.

I made a Thank you card for a friend.  She has been a great help to me lately so thought would use this little fairy to send her a Thank you message!

I used a 6" Square Card Blank.  I decided to keep the card quite simple as I love this image and wanted to keep it as the main focus.  I added a Bow and stamped the sentiment which is from Stampingallday.  To finish I added some Purple Pearl Gems.

Yellow Splash

Hi Everyone

I am here today to share this card I have made using the Conie Fong Vase of Flowers Image that is a Freebie in the FB Group.  Thank you Conie for this fabulous Freebie!  It can be used for so many occasions I Love it!

It's cold, dark and grey here today so this little bit of Sunshine colour was needed lol!
 
I have made this Valentine/Love Card.  I coloured the image using Promarkers.  I wanted the Sunflowers to stand out so I coloured all the rest of the image in Greyscale but then made the Sunflowers nice and bright.  The sentiment I typed up on the Laptop when I printed the image!

The Card Is a 6" Scalloped Square and the three different Patterned Papers are from Trimcraft.  I added some Yellow Paper Flowers and a Yellow Bow to coordinate with the image.  To finish I added Pearl Flower Gems.

I would like to enter this card into the following Challenges

Family Tree

Hi Everyone

Today is the start of a new challenge over at Craft Rocket Challenges 


The theme for the next fortnight is It's a Love Thing.  We would love for you to come on over and play along with us.

For my DT inspiration I made something completely different.  This is the first time I have attempted to make something from Wood but I saw this on a site on the internet and loved it.  I wanted to buy it as a present for my Husbands 50th Birthday which is next week and I thought why don't I have a go and make my own one.  So here it is.  I bought the tree and Hearts from Craft Heaven, bought some Distress Paints and the little wooden butterflies and doves.  It took quite few coats of the paint to get the doves and butterflies white but I got there in the end lol. I wrote the names on myself using a Sakura White Pen.   I am really pleased with how this turned out.

I got to make two cards for this challenge.  Both are using images from All Dressed Up Stamps.  I made a mistake when I ordered them as they both had the same name but as Wendy kindly sent me both I used both lol!

This is the first one using A Star is Born and I have coloured this using Prismacolour Pencils.  The card is a 6" Square and the dotty background card is from my stash.  I added some Paper Flowers, a Satin Bow and finished with the Blue Pearl Hearts.

The second card using the image A Star is Born was coloured using ProMarkers, Copics and Prismacolour Pencils.  The Card size is a 6" Square and I kept this CAS style.  The little verse is from Card-io Stamps and I punches the hearts using my X-Cut Heart punch.

Lovein' Lions!

Hi Everyone

Today is the start of a new challenge over at Fabrika Fantasy Challenge Blog.  


The theme for this month is Add a Heart.  Please come on over and join in with us.  

I chose to work with this image called Happy Lion and you can find this gorgeous lion and all the other fabulous digis available by visiting the STORE.

I decided to make a Valentine Card using two Happy Lion Images.  They are so cute and I had a great time colouring them up!  I coloured them using ProMarkers and Prisma Pencils. The Scalloped Hearts are a Sizzix Die and the Sentiment and little hearts are stamps from Stampingallday.  I needed tiny bows so I used a Cheery Lynn Mistletoe die that just happens to have a little bow with it.  Perfect for our little lions here lol!
