Our lovely Karen has chosen our theme at Passion for Markers this week:

YOUR FAVOURITE DIGI/STAMP

Our generous sponsor

is offering 3 Digi images to our lucky winner this week.


I have chosen Winter Wendy as my favourite, and coloured her with Copics.

I used the following colours:

Skin: E04; E11; E21; E00; E000; R20
Hair: E57; E55; E53; E50
Eyes: E35; E34; E30
Lips: R85; R83; R81
Purple: V09; V04; V01
Black: N9; N7; N5; N3

My papers are from the Crafter's Choice Pale Garden paper pack.  I've added a strip of lace from my stash and two Asuka laser cuts, which I've sprayed with white Gesso.

The sentiment is a Creative Expressions stamp, the flowers are a mix of Prima (white) and Little Birdie.  I've finished off with a few Studio Light pearls.





There are wonderful inspiration projects to see on the challenge blog, so be sure to pop over for a look.

Thanks for being here to see mine!

THE PAPER SHELTER CHALLENGE #541: LACE AND/OR FLOWERS


Good Morning lovely crafters!


Our theme at The Paper Shelter this week is
LACE AND/OR FLOWERS

This isn't a hard one for me. I think 90% of my cards have lace and flowers on them.


I've used gorgeous Sweet Amy on my card, colouring the image with Copics.  I've then cut an oval frame for the image using my Cameo.

I've cut my base card and papers on my Cameo, which is a super easy way to create a shaped card.  My papers are from the Simple Stories Simple Vintage Winter Woods paper pack.  I've used a Creative Dies die for the tag.

My strip of lace is Birch Creative, but I've also added a Prima lace flower.  The rest of my flowers are I Am Roses and 49 and Market.

I've also added a doily my mum crocheted on her last visit, and a few Studio Light pearls.






Up for grabs at The Paper Shelter this week is our usual fantastic prize!  Our winner will win a $30 store voucher if you've used a Paper Shelter product on your entry (you could choose the pre-coloured image, the black and white digi, or the digital paper that comes in the set), or 3 digis of your choice, if you've used another brand.  You can enter the challenge up to 3 times, provided you've used a Paper Shelter product on at least one of them.

Thanks for popping in!

JOHN


My nephew is an incredible young man, and I recently found out that he loves Anime, which opened up a whole new avenue for me when it comes to making cards for him.


This image is from LeAnn's World 101.  It's called John.

I have coloured the image with Copics and then used Distress Inks along the edge of the rectangle I cut around him.

My papers and the little sentiment stickers are from the Celebr8 Lasting Moments paper pack.  I've tied a strip of hemp cord around one paper, and added a few Echo Park enamel dots, to finish off my card.



One male card done, which is ALWAYS a reason to celebrate!

Thanks for popping in for a look!

KITTY LOVE


 This beautiful image by Krista Smith is so perfect for a card for my daughter.  The image is called Cats, Coffee and Journals.  


I have coloured the image with Copics and cut it out to fit into the frame, which along with my paper and the sentiment tag, comes from the Heartfelt Creations Classic Sunflower Collection.  I didn't want to lose any more of the sunflower paper, so I decided to only add a little Offray ribbon bow and a few Bo Bunny enamel dots.

I've also added tiny nail art stickers to create the 'tattoo' on her arm.



Thanks so much for popping in for a look!

THE PAPER SHELTER CHALLENGE #539: BOWS AND/OR PINK


Good Morning lovely crafters!


Our theme at The Paper Shelter this week is
BOWS AND/OR PINK


I've mixed two images for this Anniversary card: My Elvis Teddy Bear, and So Classy!

I've cropped So Classy! down, just leaving enough space to add this Elvis fan to the image.

I've coloured the images with Copics.

My papers are from the DCWV All Dressed Up paper pack.  I've added a strip of lace from my stash and an Offray ribbon.

I've used a Poppy Crafts die for the heart swirl, and added Little Birdie and I Am Roses flowers.







Up for grabs at The Paper Shelter this week is our usual fantastic prize!  Our winner will win a $30 store voucher if you've used a Paper Shelter product on your entry (you could choose the pre-coloured image, the black and white digi, or the digital paper that comes in the set), or 3 digis of your choice, if you've used another brand.  You can enter the challenge up to 3 times, provided you've used a Paper Shelter product on at least one of them.
