Sugar Sugar cracked glass

The technique over on Sugar Sugar for March is "cracked glass". I have used a lovely Sugar Nellie image by Leanne Ellis and watercoloured her. I then embossed the image with thick embossing powder and popped it in the freezer. When I took it out you simply crack the image. The papers used are from HOTP. I added a strip of Bazzill and some felt trim before mounting the image on Black Magic cardstock from Core'dinations. I sanded the edges to reveal the tiniest hint of pink. The image was then attached to the card with foam pads. I will add the sentiment later when I decide what occasion to use the card for.

Here is a card I made for a work colleague who gets married in a couple of weeks. The template is from Colour My World and I have used papers and embellishments from Creative Imaginations. I bound the letters with my Bind-it-All and attached some ribbons. Finally I added some flowers punched from retro flower punches. She loved it.
thanks for looking and for any comments you may leave
Have a good weekend

Three cards/Three different challenges

The first card is for a new challenge Truly Scrumptious which you will find the link to on My Fave Blogs. This was a sketch challenge- my favourite kind. I used some papers from my stash which I am trying to use up- have no idea where they are from or who by. The image is another from the Whiff of Joy Spring Kit and is watercoloured with my Derwent pencils. I have used blue Bazzill for matting and layering, a couple of stick on gems and a Prima flower with a brad in the middle.

The second card is for this week's Whiff Of Joy challenge. You had to use a sketch and they are also looking for guest designers. I have used one of the images from the latest Spring Kit from WoJ and had a first attempt at colouring using Distress Inks. The paper is from my stash, the ribbon is Anita's and the sentiment has been mounted on papers punched using SU scalloped circle and circle punches.

Over on Sugar Sugar was a project to make a tag card. This is my attempt. The image is Sugar Nellie, isn't it cute? I have watercoloured the image using my trusty Derwent pencils. The main card is Bazzill and the patterned paper is from DCWV Glitterstack. I have matted the image on orange Bazzill and added a Bazzill blossom with a brad in the centre to the closure tab. Finally I glued some little embellies from my stash.
