Poison Ivy....

Happy New Year to You All! 

I'm showing a card today which is finally a card! 

I've had the image coloured in from 2016.. shocking..

It's an awesome Poison Ivy style digi from Cute As A Button - Link is HERE

She's been coloured in using Promarkers.

I have used the sketch from Sketch Saturday but I flipped it round as I really wanted to use the spiral things and flowers. 

I do love the red, green and white colour scheme. Only Poison Ivy could get away with it not looking like christmas!! 

I am pretty chuffed with the outcome. 

I'd also like to add this to the following challenges: 

1. Sketch Saturday - #459

2. Crafty Catz - Anything Goes

3. Cute Card Thursday - Anything Goes

Thanks for popping by!

CWWC DT - Any Occasion

Hello! 

A brand new challenge over at Crafting When We Can today - Link is HERE 

Where the challenge is "Any Occasion". 

And for this challenge we are sponsored by Art By Mi Ran - Link is HERE

The image I've used is called Rora & Butterfly - Link is HERE

I went with pinks and a hint of red and gold for the image so I could tie the background and embellishments in. The image itself has been coloured in promarkers. And I've used a bracket shaped card instead of a normal square one. 

There is no sentiment on there as I've not decided what occasion to use it for yet :) 

Hope you enjoy the challenge! 

MMTC DT - Tag it!

Good Morning! 

Super quick post from me as I'm in a rush with lots of things to do! Nothing new there then! LOL 

So we have a brand new challenge over at MTTC- link is HERE

Challenge theme is "Tag It!" 

So we want to see a tag or a tag on your creation. 

I went and made a complete tag using an image I've had coloured for ages! 

Least I've used it now. the image is from Aurora Wings - Link to shop is HERE 

And it's called Poppy Sprite - Link to image is HERE 

I've used gold card with a soft yellow backing paper on the actual tag. Added gold ribbon and a bow with some red gems and flowers and spray to add some definition. Something quite simple yet effective. 

Remember to add your links to the blog and happy crafting! 

Blooms and Pearls

Good Morning! 

For a change, it's actually dry here and the sun has popped his head out...I spoke to soon. It's raining.

I do love the inbetween seasons, winter into spring, summer into autum are my faves. You see some most gorgeous colours.. which is the inspiration I used to make this card. 

I wanted something quite bright and fresh for this card but still a hint of winter, so the yellow represents the sprint coming and the purple represents the last ends of winter. 

This is what I've done...

Full Card

The circle is die-cut out of both the papers and the whole panel is raised. I wasn't sure on the bow to start with but it does tie in.. haha.. no pun intended there! The butterflies are punched out with pearls been added to the bodies. I really hope Mary likes it! 

Here's a few more pics...

I'm going to enter this into the following challenges:

1. Creative Inspirations - Blooms & Pearls

2. Fab 'n' Funky - Let's Celebrate

Time to finish off some wedding invites then chill n watch a movie...

No Digi's....

 

.... This was a challenge just in itself! I pretty use a digi for every single card!

But, as it happened I was asked to make a Wedding Card.

 

So no digi's for the Charisma Cardz challenge, here is the card...

 

Book-a-trix

 

A mixture of text, flowers, hearts & pearls.

Wasn't so sure of all the white at first, but it's turned out okay. The dark card is actually navy too.

 

Here's a few more pics:
