Friday Sketchers Challenge

Another fab sketch to work with. The Sarah Kay image was coloured with my Derwent pencils and then matted on some pink pearlised paper. I used a paper from K & Co(a 6x6 pad, cannot remember which)and highlighted the swirls with Stickles. Following the sketch I assembled the card with the papers and some Anita's Sticky Ribbon. The flower is a Bazzill Blossom and I have added a Dovecraft brad in the centre.

Been a busy crafter.

Yes, I got some time to craft last night and it was great. I made a card for Sketch Saturday using orange Bazzill. The papers are from the Glitterstack by DCWV. The Sarah Kay image was from my stash and I coloured it using my Derwent Inktense pencils. I then punched out the image using a circle punch and matted it on a larger scalloped circle.

Managed to make a card for Friday Sketchers. The cardstock is Bazzill and the papers used are by The English Paper Company. The stamps are from Stampin' Up! and I have added some dew drops from my stash.



I got lots of beautiful cards for my birthday recently and Nicola at http://mypaperworld.blogspot.com/ enclosed some beautiful stamped images. I managed to make a couple of cards with these last night. The images have been coloured using my new Promarkers, a gift from my hubby, which was very nice I must say. I also mad e acard using a Sarah Kay image I had.

DCM weekly challenge

This weeks challenge was a sketch. I had to do it as I love working from sketches. It was a friends birthday yesterday so I decided to make her card and enter it into the DCM challenge, killing two birds with one stone. The image is a Sarah Kay one and is coloured with my Derwent Inktense pencils. The DP is from DCWV Glitterstack and I used my Woodware scallop punch to cut the circle and stamped Happy Birthday inside it. Then I added little dew drops thingies around the scalloped edges. The piece of ribbon is from my stash and was attached to the card prior to mounting the image and scalloped circle. I hope you like it and thanks for visiting

Scrapbook Sisters Ltd Edition kit and a card

Here is another card I made using those fab Sarah Kay images. The paper is DCWV Glitterstack and a couple of prima flowers with a pink brad in the centre.Colouring is with Derwent Inktense. The sentiment is stamped on some pink cardstock using black ink.
I got this kit when it came out last month and it is sooo gorgeous. All the papers, stamps and embellies are Heidi Grace. This page was made using their instructions and I decided to capture Ryan's first day at school. The page is black Bazzill and the flowers have been stamped and embossed in white. I am now looking for other photos to use with the rest of the kit.
Hope you like it and thanks to Karen & Julie for a fabulous kit

Spoonful of Sugar/Cute Card Thursday

Two card for two challenges today. Managed to make these last night. The baby card is for the Spoonful of Sugar challenge which was to use a sketch. I have used some baby themed papers form my stash and stamped the image in Ultramarine Staz-on. The words are from the same stamp set but I cannot remember at the moment who makes them. I also used some pale blue twill, cutting a slit in the card to wrap it around the front. Finally I added some glitter to the edge of the basket using stickles and a peel off greeting on some cardstock which was mounted on foam pads.
The other card was for Cute Card Thursday which challenged you to use bright colours. I decided to use the sketch again and a Sarah Kay stamped image. I coloured her with my Derwent Inktense pencils( which I am in love with). The paper is from the DCWV Glitterstack and some cardstock and ribbon from my stash.
Hope you like them and thanks for looking

Friday Sketcher's Challenge

I came across this challenge blog last week while bloghopping. I love working from sketches so I just had to join in. I have used a lovely Sarah Kay stamp and coloured it with Derwent Inktense pencils. This image has been matted onto some lilac Bazzill cardstock. I cut a square blank and matted some paper from The English Paper Company on it, leaving a small border all the way round. The image was them matted on to this. Using my cropadile I put four copper eyelets in place and threaded through a lilac gingham ribbon. The sentiment was placed on two pieces of lilac Bazzill. It's my sister's wedding anniversary tomorrow so this card will be perfect. I'll make sure to check this challenge out again.
