OSAAT DT Card

For this weeks challenge we have a sketch for you,

sketch 2

The lovely Karen from Karen’s Doodles, HERE has generously let us have our pick of an image for this challenge too,  so thank you Karen  it’s much appreciated,

P1010764Karen’s beautiful image is called LOVE ME FOREVER! and is just perfect for my sisters wedding Anniversary soon as she adores cutie giraffes and you can’t get more cute than these, I tweaked the sketch a little by using a an A4 piece of card folded in half, A5 I think this makes it, but don’t quote me on that lol, and used hearts instead of circles,

P1010765 

I used, Copics, Chalk~ background, Stickles Glue, X Cut~ Corner Die Cut, Textured Card, Paper Unknown,

The Pixie Cottage~ sketch…Copic Colour… Raise the Bar~3 of anything…Inky Impressions~ Think Spring,

P1010777The image is Lili of the Valley and I’ve coloured her with Copics using YG03, Y17,C7, and a few others that blended with these colours,I’ve loosely followed the sketch for the Pixie Cottage, and used three flowers of the same type for their challenge, and the colours and image certainly feel like spring which covers Inky Impressions hopefully lol,

The only other items I’ve used is textured card, stickles, MS butterfly punch,and a piece of ribbon from stash, oh and a clear stamps mixed sentiment stamp, phew say that in a rush lol,P1010779Hope your all having a good weekend, got to go out now so will do the challenges later, thanks for looking , hugs Liz xx

Birthday Card

The weather has been awful all day today constant rain and cold too, so I’ve kept myself busy crafting and having fun, hubby was off as well but he kindly took himself off to the shed and tinkered about in there, and my son has a cold but he staid in bed so it was bliss, lol, I’ ve made my card using my favourite Magnolia image, I think she’s called sweet Tilda and I love her,P1010775For my card I’ve coloured Tilda in with Distress Inks, and have used the same inks to stamp the greenery !! and flowers at the front of the fence, the large roses I have decoupaged from the Blueberry Hill paper stack, which I have then added stickles and glamour dust to, Tilda’s dress is highlighted with stickles as well, pearls are  crystal stickers,

I have layered the fence back to back with the front and back of core’denations whitewash effect card slightly off set to   add some depth, well that was my idea, don’t know if it looks that way or just out of line he he,

P1010776Finally I cut her out and layered her on foam pads for extra depth, hope you’ve enjoyed your visit, thanks for looking, hugs Liz xx

Just for Fun

Hi, I’ve been a bit busy this last few day’s as I went to a craft show in Manchester, it’s my birthday tomorrow so hubby said I could have some craft stuff, it was good but heaving with folk, good job we got there early lol, anyway Lili of the Valley were there and I just had to buy some stamps, they are so cute, so expect some cards to be coming along  soon,

I made this card with one of the stamps I got as someone asked me for a baby card and I just couldn’t resist him lol,P1010732

I’ve coloured him in with Copics and the papers were free downloads from Here, the buttons are brads, and I’ve added a computer sentiment,

For my second card I’ve been asked for a Diamond Anniversary card,so I’ve done Iris folding Champagne glasses and added glittery hearts that shine and sparkle when the light catches them,P1010730 

The colours look a bit darker on here than in reality,  I used Pearlized card for the main front, and added crystal dots and crystal hearts for the Fizz,

Hope your all having a good day, thanks for looking,
