This gorgeous image is from Sheepski Designs and I chose it as part of a prize I won in a challenge Andrea was sponsoring.  It's called Valentine, and I have coloured it with markers.  I have added a sunset sky background, using techniques learnt in a Kit & Clowder colouring lesson.

My papers are from the Recollections Kaitlin pack.  The couple I have made this for, are outdoors, hiking, camping, earthy people, so I wanted to keep everything as earthy as possible.  I've added two twig hearts and little wood chips.  My flowers are 49 and Market.  I have used a wonky stitches die from Creative Dies to cut out the sentiment.

Thanks so much for popping in for a look!

DIGI CHOOSDAY WEEK 25

Hi Everybody!

This week I have the pleasure of showing you the Winston range.  I have used papers, the focus sentiment and a little pre-coloured snoozing Winston, all from Winston download bundle.

I have inked the edges of all my papers, and cut the sentiment and snoozing Winston out on my Cricut.  The Dad and swirl are laser cut wood.  I first painted them with white Gesso, and then inked them with Distress Ink.  I wanted to try and achieve a weathered, peeling look, like on the sentiment topper, and if you look at the zoomed pic, you'll be able to see the outcome.  I was quite pleased with the result..  A strip of burlap ribbon and a few pearls and it was all done!

As you know, the weekly challenge at Digi Choosday is Anything Goes, so pop your crafty creations into the challenge, and DON'T FORGET TO GRAB YOUR DISCOUNT CODE TODAY, as it's only only valid for 24 hours!  You can use the links below to get to all the important places:

DIGISTAMPS 4 JOY CHALLENGE #149: ANYTHING GOES + FOR THE MAN IN YOUR LIFE

Hello Everybody!

This is your mid-month reminder about the Anything Goes challenge going on at Digistamps 4 Joy.  There's an optional theme of 'For The Man In Your Life', as we celebrate all the Dads in our lives this month.

I've used the gorgeous Dad's Austin on my card, and coloured it with markers.

My paper is from the Prima Cartographer pack.  The little tags at the bottom are from the FabScraps The Gentleman's Club collection, and I've stamped the sentiment using a Papermania 'Dad' stamp, and a magazine freebie 'You're a Classic' stamp.  The little pocket watch is KaiserCraft and the bricks are Celebr8.  I've also added a few little pearls.
