Poppy Mouse

We have a new challenge over at Colour Crazy Challenge and this week we have two lovely sponsors.

Crafty Sentiments Designs and Di's Digi Stamps.

I have chosen to work with Poppy Mouse by Di's Digi Stamps.

I coloured the lil mouse first using Copics and to get the texture,  once the ink was dry I put a little surgical spirit on an old flannel and dabbed a couple of times.

Once the mouse was dry I coloured the remainder of the image with Graph-it Markers.

I cut a swing card template and added a few odds of patterned paper.

Everything was designed in Silhouette Studio and cut on my Cameo (Except the invite outers)

The beautiful newlyweds.

Digi Choosday Week 34

I have been itching to use some of the new Lil Miss Sugarpops images, so I chose 2 images from the Download 1 Kit to create my Tag cards.

Last Summer, my son and I had fun with Shaving foam and distress inks and created these beautiful marbled backgrounds, finally I have a project they are perfect for.

Both of my images are coloured with Copics and I have used the same tag and background for each, just in different colour schemes.  I think they make perfect cards for little girls.

Our challenge as usual is ANYTHING GOES and we would love to see you join in and also post to our Facebook group.

Digi Choosday Week 32

This week at DIGI CHOOSDAY the design team have been playing with the design sheets that come with many of the Polkadoodles collections.

I have used a design sheet from Works and Play 9 - Love & Kisses to create an engagement card.

I matted onto a co-ordinating heart embossed background, then edged with Gold card, to match the colour scheme of the design sheet.

Aurora Wings Elements

We have a new challenge for you today over at Aurora Wings and our theme is........

I was convinced I wanted to do Fire as my theme, but as you can see from the image below, I had a major change and went with Water - I so love colouring Mitzi's Mermaids.

Normally I go for Teal or Orange, but this time I went for a rainbow look inspired by a recent

 Kit & Clowder Colouring Class

I started by painting a watercolour background and was going to colour with Copics, until I realised they do not blend on watercolour paper, so instead I grabbed my Prisma Pencils and used a combination of purple, pink and orange to colour her beautiful tale.

Then I went a bit mad with Gold paint splatter and novo drops, but it looks really magical in real life, not sure I have truly captured it in the photos. 

 I added some coral using stamps from Inkylicious and Lavinia Stamps using adirondack inks.

Finally I mounted onto black card and added a memory box die cut.

We would love to see your element projects.
