Fruity

I created this card using Lilli Claire's Bouquet digi stamp from tiddly inks and coloured with my promarkers, cut with my cuttlebug and nestabilities dies. The paper is all stock from my stash; the patterned paper is from a free set of papers from a magazine but I don't know who by.

Summer Fun in the Garden

Another card today!



Image from Tiddly Inks - Grow a little love.  Coloured with Promarkers and polychromos.  The ribbons are adhesive ribbons I have had for years and lost the packet so who knows who makes them?  I punched the flowers from pearlescent paper and each has a bronze brad at the centre.  The layering oval is cut using my cuttlebug and nestabilites and embossed with Cuttlebug's birds and swirls folder.  I ran over the surface with a green ink pad.

Red, White and Blue

I was supposed to be sorting out my craft room this weekend but instead found myself making loads of cards and making more mess than I started with.  

This is on of the cards I made today.



The image is 'Patriotic Wryn' from Tiddly inks and I think she is just soo cute! I have coloured her in with my promarkers and polychromos.  The papers and ribbons are from Papermania's Portobello road range.  This card was the first using my new cuttlebug and nestabilities dies; my first die cutting experience and I love it!



I am entering this card into the following challenges;

Tiddly Inks - #90 Red White and Blue
Passion for Promarkers - #156 Sketch (below - flipped and rotated)

Cupcake anyone?

This is my new challenge card.




The image is 'Wryn with a cherry on top' digi stamp from Tiddly Inks.  Coloured with Promarkers (of course!) and my new Polychromos colouring pencils.  I have added pink gems to the frosting and coloured metal brads in the corners and the six blocks at the bottom.  The sketch is from Sketch Saturday.

I am new to this whole blogging/challenge thing and have been so impressed looking at everyone else's colouring of images.  I tried applying some of the things I have seen and am really impressed with what I think is an improvement!  I especially like the hair.  So thank you all for the inspiration.
