Fav colour combo

wow where do the weeks go - this year is already flying by and its time for a new challenge at 

Fab n Funky

and the challenge this week should be real easy

your favourite colour combo

Doodle you'd think but no not for me

I really couldnt decide what my fav combo was

I think it really depends on what mood im in at the time

so Im going for the combo of green and mauve as I do really love it

and this is what I made

and not a copic in sight lol.

I wanted to use this gorgeous flower by Kaztlekraft and think it looks great in distress inks. I coloured straight onto the stamp with distress markers and then used distress inks for the mats and the background which is a cover the card stamp.

The image is quite big so kept the rest real simple bit of ribbon and a hat pin and bobs your uncle done.

Cant wait to see what combos you all choose and as always we have some terrific sponsors for you

Our first prize sponsor is 

Stampart Design by Kathryne

and we also have the lovely

Moving with Fab n Funky

Hi Peeps

This weeks challenge has been set by Shirley who wants to see you all 

Get Moving.

Yep she wants you to show us something that has someone who is moving or doing some sort of activity! 

And to get you in to the swing (no pun intended lol) of things we have a great sponsor this week who has some amazing images that really fit for this challenge.

MAYZYART

and I was lucky enough to get this gorgeous MayzyArt footballer to play with

I've coloured him with copics, cut him out and using sticky pads placed him on the background which I made using a cloud stamp it all over stamp and distress inks.

The sentiment and little footballs are by Flowersoft.

As its still winter in this side of the world and the word is that its going to get cold again

were going with the theme

WINTER

We have two amazing sponsors this week

Digi Darla Designs

and

First prize sponsor StampArt Designs by Kathryne

I used these real cute Polar Bears

By StampArt

I kept the card real simple mainly because like a lot of people my craft room is the dining room table so had to do a major clear up and empty it off  (cant really see whats wrong with christmas dinner on your knee lol)

not having enough storage space hubby kindly put lots of stuff like scissors, glue, cutting mats, embellishments and a mound of other essential stuff up into the attic so the grandchildren couldnt get it - course its not all come back out yet so had to make do with what I could get my hands on., but I dont think it was too bad - roll on the weekend when I can claim my table back!

Angelline Ballerine

Hi everyone thought it was about time I ventured back into blogland - haven't being doing too much crafting of late, decorating the house has taken precedent but the bad weather has arrived, did I say arrived not too sure it ever left here in Blighty lol. So back to the craft table for me (dinner table to the rest of the family).

This little cutie is Angelline Ballerine by Stampavie which I got at the Craft Barn, where I have been doing a few classes, havent got around to taking any photos of what I have done yet but will post in the coming weeks.

Blonde Hair

It was my turn to post on the Make It Crafty store Blog and I chose the in house challenge of blonde hair. I wanted to have a bit of an experiment with different colours for a medium look blonde hair.

This is one of my first attempts and I was quite pleased with the colour combination except the highlighted area is not very distinct. So had another go with same combination.

Def more the look I was aiming for. having the two piccies now what better way to use them than on a bag yep still loving making them and card to match.

on a roll I carried on the theme and changed the colours that I was using slightly for the nest pics

thought I would try little bit darker for this cute little Frenchie Leon

and as things seemed to be going quite well and who am I to stop a creative roll I carried on and completed the last piccie in the Frenchie set. Again I changed the colour of the hair slightly.

I added some of the gorgeous chippies from make it crafty to these, which I coloured with copics and then sprayed with Crafters Companion silver glitter spray.
