Challenge 43 and 92

I started colouring this gorgeous fairy from Sugar Nellie a couple of days ago with the plan of entering it into the Simon Says Challenge of Chocolate and Pink but have been so tired by time ive got home for work that I didnt finish it until tonight which is of course too late for that challenge.

When I was putting the card together I pulled out 3 matching dp's from the DCWV Garden Party stack but no matter how I put them together they seemed to overshadow the image so I stuck with just the one in the end and am really quite pleased with the result.

The fairy I stuck onto plain white paper which I had coloured with distress inks and used my lovely new Martha Stewart Corner and Border Punch set on.

Im going to enter this card into the following challenges
Creative Inspirations New Year New Product

Flutter by Wednesday Fairy, butterfly or angel

Challenge 21, Challenge 16, My favourite things, Challenge 14 Christmas in July

This is my first christmas card for this year. I have just received this Sarah Kay xmas stamp and couldnt wait to try it out. I used downloaded papers from Funky Faries traditional christmas collection.

I am going to enter this card into the Papertake weekly challenge which is my favourite things, christmas is definetely one of my favourite things, I used doodle parts from Spellbinders which are my favourite shapes and added ultra fine glitter, which I love. I also used my favourite nesties which are Labels 4.

I coloured the image whith Copics and the colour challenge for copics this week is YG03 yellow Green which I used on the pressies and Tree, B45 smoky blue which I used on his trousers and hat and Y28 Lionet gold which I dont have so used Y38 Honey instead on the ribbons.

Creative Inspirations this week is Gems and Pearls which I have also added.

And then musn't forget Stamptacular Sunday challenge which is Christmas in July.

Card for a male Challenge 10

The challenge on Creative Inspirations this week is to make a card for a male, I had a new Sugar Nellie Stamp and a New Digi Image from Victoria Case and couldn't make my mind up which one to use for the challenge so I've done both. They have both been coloured in Copics and papers for both are a mixture from Hot Off The Press and the Gorgeous Bearly Mine Designs Cd's Extreme Designer 1 and 2. Ribbon came from Donna.

Challenge 9

This is my third card for the evening and I actually managed to stick to the rules of a challenge for this one.

The Creative Inspirations chalenge this week is a really lovely sketch, that I enjoyed doing.

I have used a Sugar Nellie stamp that I have coloured with watercolour pencils. Papers are from Papermania and DCWV. Flowers are by Petaloo.

(I just thought I would let you know that it was only as I was typing Petaloo that I realised that the name is probably pronounced as 'petal oo' not 'pet a loo' as I was thinking, thought it was a bit of a strange name for a company making such lovely flowers. lol).

Anyways I digress, gems and butterfly are from stash.

Thanks for looking.

Feeling Blue?

Okay am on a roll today - must be the fact that I got a day off cause I have to go to the dreaded dentist later and I need to keep my mind of the fact i've got to have my tooth out.

This card I made following the Creative Inspirations sketch, I used a much smaller card than normal and was a bit worried that it might be a bit crowded but I think it came out alright. Whiff of Joy's Musing Melinda and her bench I have coloured with Copic's, am getting a bit more confident with them now. Papers are from Designer Extreme vol 1 (Can't think what I used before I got this cd lol) sentiment stamp is Penny Black flowers and gem from stash.

Once Upon a Time

I was really exited to recieve my Whiff of Joy stamps and couldn't wait to get started. I was really pleased with the results and hope you like it.

I have used Queen Charlotte who I cut out and placed on her horse. The images I coloured using Copic's this was my first time using them - need a bit of practice still, but good excuse to keep playing lol. I used papers from Bearly Mine Extreme Design and DCWV. Embelishments are all from DCWV. This card fits in with the Creative Inspiration Challenge this week which is 2 stamped images.
