Tiddly Inks blog Challenge

Good Evening everyone, well sorry I have been a little quite, but with the school holidays and getting things sorted for my daughters 6th birthday, time has flown.
The challenge this time for Tiddly Inks is Critters, so I found this image I had not used yet and coloured it in, I just love the image and thought the sentiment I added to it made it complete.
 
I have coloured the image in using my pro markers, then I made the sky with a template from one of my crafty friends on facebook, used my Tim Holtz distress ink to do the clouds and the grass effect. I added a sun, some backing paper and flowers. I have not really used these flowers before but think they are fab and thought that I could not sit and stroke them (all you crafty people will know what I mean by this lol) any longer.
 
I hope you like my little project?
 
 
Take a look at the Tiddly Inks Blog for more info on the challenges http://tiddlyinkschallenge.blogspot.co.uk/2013/02/challenge-104-inky-critters.html, Thank you for taking the time to look at my blog and would love you to follow me.

Wings Challenge

Afternoon everyone, well it is quite windy here in the UK and wet but that is a great excuse to stay in doors and do some crafting.
Todays make is for the Tidly Ink wings challenge. I used the Tidly Inks image of Wryn on a mushroom coloured in with my pro markers, then added it to an embossed die cut and added a bit of chalk to add to the effect. Matt and layered some paper, added a strip of paper that I border punched and to finish that off I added some lace and a charm. To complete the look I added flowers, sentiment and bling.
 
I hope you all like it?

Another Competition Entry

Good Afternoon everyone, well the snow is slowly melting away. Had a little look at some challenges and decided to enter my second Here come The Boys challenge.
 
This challenge is a bingo one, I decided to pick the four corners which are blue, patterened paper, buttons and an image.
 
I used a teddy bo image coloured in with my pro markers, some die cut stars in blue and some patterned paper by The Paper Shelter, added a sentiment and finished off with the buttons.

The Paper Shelter challenge

Well here is another card I have entered into a challenge. This time it is the turn of The Paper Shelter, the theme was blue winter. I used the Swalk image with the sentiment to match saying "a hug is the perfect gift... one size fits all and its easily returned". I coloured her in using pro markers. Matt it onto a die cut. The paper I used was by The Paper Shelter and I thought it really finished the card off. I added some hand rolled flowers and card candi to finish.

Here Come The Boys Challenge


What a productive day I have had craft wise, this is my third card today, and you guessed it for another challenge.
 
It is for Here Come The Boys, this time, I had a sketch to work from and went from there.
 
I used the great Teddy Bo image coloured in my pro markers, then added paper for the sketch part and added washi tape and finished off with a sentiment which reads With Love, (its hard to see because of the flash sorry) and card candi.
