It's a Blue Ellie this time!

Hi Everyone

Today is the start of the new challenge over at Monochrome Magic Challenge

 
The theme for the next month is Anything Goes Monochrome or Monochrome with a TWIST of Add a Bow.  I am really hoping to see the number of entries increase over the next couple of months we seem to be lacking so please come on over and play along with me.

For my inspiration project I have made a second Christmas Card for Chloe (No I am not going mad lol)  I made her one last week using this image and my friend fell in love with it and asked if I could make her one exactly the same for her Daughter.  I don't like to make two the same so I let her have the one that I made for Chloe for her Daughter and made another one using the same image as I just love it, so now Chloe will have this one lol.

The Image is from SheepSki Designs and is called Ready For Christmas.  I have coloured this cutie using Copics.  I added two different colours of Frantage around the image a white and a very pale blue.

The card is a 7" Square and the patterned paper is from my stash.  I cut the image using a GoKreate Circle die and layered this onto a scalloped circle which I cut using a Spellbinders die.  The baubles are a Memory Box Die and I popped them on some Satin Ribbon.  I hand tied the Organza bow.  The sentiment is hand stamped and is from Stampingallday.  To finish I added some Pearl Gems.

Forget Me Not

Hi Everyone

It is the start of the new challenge over at Creative Craft Cottage 



The theme for this month is Ribbon and/or Lace.  We are playing this one Just for fun as we do not have a sponsor.

 For my DT card I created a Twisted Easel (Haven't made one of these for ages lol!)

I used this gorgeous image called Forget-Me-Not Fairy by Christine Karron and I have coloured her with Copics

The card is a 7" Square and the patterned paper is from LOTV. I cut a tag using a die and popped on a Santoro Pinwheel to use as the "stay"  I added blue sheer ribbon and a satin bow.

Ready for Christmas

Hi Everyone

Today is the start of the new challenge over at Unicorn Challenge 


The theme for this month is Add a Charm.  I hope you can come on over and play along with us this month.

For my DT card I made my Daughter Chloe's Christmas Card.  She is 8 years old (9 at end of December) and she adores elephants and when I recently saw this image called Ready For Christmas by SheepSki Designs  I knew this was the perfect image for her card.

I have coloured this using Copics and a touch of White Prisma Colour Pencil.

I cut the shape using a GoKreate Frilly Frame Die.  The Square is actually a lilac snowflake patterned paper from The Snowman paper pack but its so light it doesn't show up very well in the photo.  I cut the image using a GoKreate large Circle die and layered this onto a Scalloped Citcle cut using a Spellbinders Grand Die.  The sentiment is hand stamped and is from Stampingallday.  I used a Robert Addams Die to cut the Snowflakes, hand tied a double bow, popped on the charm and finished by adding pearl gems, a clear snowflake and a Merry Christmas Peel Off

I really enjoyed making this for Chloe.  I like layers and this was fun!

Rainbow Gems

Hi Everyone

Today is the start of this months challenge over at CCC Digi Creations 


The theme for September is Use Pearls/Gems.  I hope you can come on over and play along with us.


Our sponsor for this challenge is Lemon Shortbread and I chose to work with this image called Rainbow Unicorn and I have coloured this with Copics

For my DT card I used a 7" x 5" Card blank and I have had this rainbow paper in my stash for nearly a year and have been waiting for something to use it for.  It is not very clear in the photos but I used a Dovecraft Blue Shimmer Chalk and coloured in the sky (You might be able to pick up the blue tinge in the photo lol!)  I popped on some Clear Star Gems in the same colours as the Rainbow sections to finish.

I would like to enter this card into the following Challenges

Pil Seung!!

Hi Everyone

It's my turn again to share some inspiration from the wonderful store of Digi Doodle Studios

For my DT project this time I have made my Son's Birthday card.  All of my children do Martial Arts so when DDS design this image (and two others to go with it) I was so pleased. Although with the Martial Arts they do they do not wear a head band (I think that's more Karate!!)  these images are so cute I just had to use them.  I have the other two printed off on my desk ready to colour and make up just got to get around to them lol.

The card is a 7" Square and the patterned paper is also from DDS and is called Autumn Day The sentiments I typed on the laptop before printing the image and the numbers are cut using a Robert Addams Die.
