Grading Good Luck

Hi Everyone

Here is my latest DT project for Last Minute Manda 
 

This set is not in the store quite yet but it will be available soon.  I am giving you a little sneaky peek of one of the characters from this Martial Arts Set

I made a Good Luck card for one of the boys that goes to Martial Arts with my kids as he has his Black Belt Grading today!

I have coloured this image using Copics

I would like to enter this card into the following Challenges
 
I seem to be making more Masculine cards than I ever have before at the moment!

Pele - Goddess of Volcanos

 

Hi Everyone

Here is my latest DT creation for Sweet November Stamps
 
 

I was so excited to see what the Newsletter Freebie was going to look like.  When the DT were told it was a version of Pele the Goddess of Volcanos I was like OK!!!  I had never heard of heard so a quick google search and I was soon educated.

I had a vision in my head but unfortunately my colouring skills were not up to it and it was a bit adventurous so I binned my first attempt and started again.  I wanted the Goddess in this card to look like an extension of the lava river and I am pleased with how this one turned out
 
Images/river all coloured using Copics
 
I paired the Goddess Image up with some of the foliage from the Mermaid Lagoon Background Builder  I created the clouds using Memento Inks and a cloud die.  I needed a moody looking sky so thought I could achieve this better with inks than my Copics.  (Skies are my downfall with Copic Colouring lol)

Fairy Tot June ATC

Hi Everyone

Here is my latest DT creation for Sweet November Stamps
 
 

Every Month I bring you the Fairy Tot that is in the store and here is June's.  Fairy Tot - June has been made into an ATC.
 
If you haven't ever made an ATC I urge you to have a go.  It looks so tiny but it really is amazing the level of detail you can get onto it!

I have coloured the image and scene using Copics and the sentiment is a clear stamp (I cannot remember who makes it as I do not have the packaging!)  I have added Wink of Stella to her wings
 
 I would like to enter this ATC into the following Challenges
