Australian Flood Appeal Digi

This is the second Nana Vic digi that I wanted to share with you today, as I am sure everyone knows now Australia has suffered extreme flooding over recent weeks with many families having lost everything, So this digi has been specially designed
by Nana Vic in order to help raise money for the flood victims.

You can get the digi which is called Rainy Days Here for the bargain price of Australian $1

I have of course coloured the image in copics and added stickles for the rain and puddles and glossy accents to the boots. Papers are Citrus by Hot off the Press.

Field of Poppies

Isnt she just gorgeous, this stamp is Field of Poppies also by Ching-Chou Kuik.

I am soooooo loving these Sweet Pea images, that so far I have another 7 coloured ready to mount lol.

This one I coloured with Copics, papers are K & Co I didnt have any card for mounting that was the right colour so I used my copic pens on white pearl paper for the matting, which gives the soft sheen. Embellies are from Swarovski.

For this card I followed the Sketch at Sketch Saturday by Debbie. This sooo cute image is from The Greeting Farm and he's been coloured in copics and had fluffy stuff and glitter added to his stoking.

I turned the card into an Easel card so am going to enter this into the Secret Crafter Challenge and the Crazy 4 Challenges which are both Easels and Papertake Weekly which is Digi Sparkle and Roses on Paper Christmas - I realy love these cards so expect to see a few more.

The greeting is from Fairy Doodles which I embossed with silver fish Cosmic shimmer embossing powder.

Charms are from Nikki over at BunnyZoes.

Papers are really old no idea where they come from!!!!!

Sketch 69

This is another of the Beatrix Potter Stamps - I have followed the sketch for Sketch Saturday.
I coloured the image with distress inks and sakura glitter pens. Papers are K & Co Sparkly Sweet.

Challenge 68

I really loved making this card for Sketch Saturday. The image is another from Mo Manning, which I have coloured with Copics. I used papers from Raspberry Road and buttons from stash. The sentiment I did on the computer. I used Peeled Paint Distress Ink around the edges as I didnt want the stark white contrast. The Rafia is from Bunny-Zoe and I used threads of it in the buttons.

I have to also mention my hubby Phil who made me the stand to put my cards on for taking photos. Anything to shut me up Lol :-)

Sketch 66

I am still working my way through the new Autumn collection by Sugar Nellie (I made that sound like it was a chore which it so isn't lol) and have used the sketch from Sketch Saturday for this one.
As per I have coloured her in copics an monted her with nesties which I have distressed with Peeled Paint distress inks (that is such a useful colour).
The flowers are from Hero Arts and I have coloured them with copics to match.
The papers are from K & Co classic collection.

Sketch 65

Its Sketch 65 over at
SketchSaturday and this is my take on the sketch - I have used another of those gorgeous Victoria Case stamps from SCACD.
I have used a mixture of distress inks, Copics and Sakura glitter pens to colour the image.
Flowers are petaloo which I coloured with glitter pens and I have added loads of gems for a bit of bling so I am also going to enter this into the Papertake Weekly Challenge which is a choice of their past challenges to celebrate their 100th Challenge.

OMG how dozy am I when I picked out this stamp this morning it was to enter the CuteCardThursday challenge which this week is Lazy Dayz and I thought this kinda fit the bill.

Challenge 62

Another of my mens cards again an image from Lily-Boos Boutique, I just love the expression on his face, I havent added a sentiment yet as brain is not wanting to work and I havent thought of anything witty to put on it.

Papers are just ones I have had laying around.

I followed the sketch at Sketch Saturday
http://sketchsaturday.blogspot.com/, which was done by Sandra Dry as I thought this worked well for a mans card.

Sketch 51

A really love sketch to follow for this weeks Sketch Saturday Challenge.

I have used another of the Sugar Nellie Stamps that arrived today, I'm not sure if these darling girls have names or not but this one is Country Garden.

The papers are Papermania Nostalgia Warm and Papermania glittered and embossed Vellum. I used a Sissix die cut for the edging.

Flowers are from Range and Gems and ribbon from stash.

Sketch 50

I went shopping with my Big Sis yesterday and found these flowers, I just couldn't wait to use them, so chose the papers and image to match them rather than the other way round. Luckily they fitted this weeks sketch on Sketch Saturday really well.

The image I have chosen is Cute Daisy May, which I coloured with my lovely copics and the papers are from the Hot Off The Press Stack 'Boys to Men. Leaf flourish are a Sissix die and the key and heart are Spellbinders dies.

Thank you for looking, I love reading your comments.

Sketch 48

This is my entry for the Sketch Saturday Challenge.

I have used a Whiff of Joy stamp Musing Melinda, she started off on the bench but for this challenge and the papers I chose I thought it looked to heavy and I liked her better on her own. I coloured her with Copics and added extra fine glitter to her wings and the shaped green card. The backing papers are from the fabulous Bearly Mine's Designer Extreme Vol 1 CD.

Ribbon and gems from stash.

Sketch Saturday Challenge

This is the card I have made for the Sketch Saturday Challenge. I have used backing papers from the Bearly Mine, Extreme Designs Vol 1 CD, which is fast becoming my favourite, printed onto glossy paper. I stamped the vintage woman using Vintage Photo Distress Ink and Embossing Powders and added some gems and ribbon and I followed the theme onto the inside.
