IDIC #45 - Sketch

At I Did it Creations this sunday, we are working from a Sketch! I struggle with layouts sometimes so this is a good challenge for me :)

The image is called Irish Andy and is from Stamping Boutique, who is our sponsor this week. I have coloured him with Promarkers and used papers from papermania. The sentiment is a personal impessions stamp and the card candy is from craftwork cards.

Thanks for visiting :)

One of those elusive Male Cards....

Hate, hate HATE making mens cards!! But here's one anyway!

The image was a freebie a while ago from Yolande Derstain, which I've coloured with Promarkers. I've added glossy accents to the windscreen and the lights to add some dimension. I'm not sure what brand the paper is as it was in my scraps drawer! The sentiment is a stamp from Personal Impressions, and the card candy is from Craftwork cards.

Twin Baby Girls

I was recetly asked to make a card for the Birth of Twin baby girls, and this is what I came up with.  The papers are from Dovecraft Back to Basics paper pack which I've used a MS punch on each edge. The letters are made using MS alphabet punches. The flower, ribbon and pearls are from stash, and the baby feet are a wooden stamp. I've glittered the letters with Stickles to add some girly bling!

Charisma #9 - 4 Legged Friends

Our new challenge this week at Charisma is 4 Legged friends! and we have THREE fab sponsors too, wow!

Simon Says Stamp are very generously giving a $20 gift voucher to our winner.

Meljens are offering 4 Digi's of the winners choice

And last but not least, our final sponsor is Crafty Emmas!

For my project this week, I've used this really cute cat by Meljens! He looks so peaceful having a sleep with his mouse friend! I've coloured with promarkers and inked around the edges with Antique linen DI. The image is cut out with deckled rectangles nesties and matted onto some really cool leather effect silver card. The patterned paper was from a sheet I got at the NEC last November but I cant remember which company, I think it might have been payperbox. I've inked the eges and corners of this with DIs too. The paw print ribbon I got from my last trip to the USA and the sentiment is from craftwork cards. I've added some black gems to finish off.
Thanks for looking!

CRAFT #92 - Mother's Day

At CRAFT this week, our theme is Mother's Day!

This week we are sponsored by the lovely Lauretta and I was lucky enough to be able to play with this pretty digi stamp.

I've coloured with Promarkers, and used glossy accents on the Vase to make it shine. The image is cut out with Oval nesties and inked around the edges with Victorian Velvet DI. The Paper is from the V&A Hanoverian paper pack and up close it has the most gorgeous lineny texture. The edge punch is MS, as are the leaves. The Flower is from stash and the card candy is from craftwork cards. I'm not sure who the sentiment stamp is by! To add a bit of sparkle, I've added stickles to the flowers, and the centres of the flowers in the punched border, plus glimmer mist on the paper flower and the main image.
Thanks for looking!

DS4J - Lacy Days

This fortnight's challenge at Digistamps 4 Joy is 'Lacy Days'. Yes, we want to see you use Lace on your projects!

I've used this beautiful Daffodil image to make an Easter card. You can find this along with many other fab digis at the Digistamps 4 Joy Shop!

I've added colour with Promarkers, plus a touch of stickles to the centres of the daffidils. The scalloped paper is a scrap from stash cut with scalloped circle nesties, and the sentiment is a freebie from Renate. The lace and gems are from my stash.

Thanks for looking :)
