PAPER NEST DOLLS ELLIE WITH HEART FLOWER

This is one of those images I've been dying to colour, because her hair is just so pretty!

The image is called Ellie with Heart Flower, and I have coloured it with markers.

My papers are from the Paper Boutique A Garden in Provence paper pack.  It has beautiful coordinating solids, so matching a border is simple.  I've added a strip of lace and a few pearls.  My bunting is Jenni B, and I've added litle bows on the edges.  The ribbon came from a stack I've collected, cut from clothing tags.

My flowers are all Green Tara.

We have a Facebook group filled with Paper Nest Dolls inspiration, so be sure to join us there, so see more of these sweet images.

Thanks for visiting today!

THE PAPER SHELTER CHALLENGE #426: BIRTHDAY CREATION

Good Morning fellow crafters!

This week at The Paper Shelter, we'd like to see a 

BIRTHDAY CREATION

I have a long list of outstanding birthday cards on my desk, and they're ALL for men!  So this week I decided to tick one of them off my list, using this wonderful image called Camariere!

I have coloured the image with markers, using a white gel pen to create the glittery lapels of the waistcoat.  I've used a Poppy Crafts stitched edge die to cut out the image, and another from the same set for the paper behind the image.

My papers are from the DCWV White Ginger Stack.  I've tied two strips of hemp cord around the top and tied it off with a bow.

The two sentiments were made using Spellbinders oval dies, and the Happy Birthday using a Find It Trading die.  I've added a few Carta Bella enamel dots to the sentiment ovals.

I've finished off with two Express Yourself MIP beer glass stickers.

 One male card done!!

 

We have our usual fabulous prize up for grabs this week!  You can win a $30 store voucher if you've used a Paper Shelter product on your Birthday Creation, (the black & white digi, pre-coloured image or paper), 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.

I look forward to seeing what you're creating this week!

Thanks for stopping by!

MORGAN'S ARTWORLD MAY CHALLENGE: ANYTHING GOES

Good Morning crafters!  I hope you're keeping safe and well.

We have a super set of images to showcase at Morgan's Artwrold this month! 

For this card I used Wedding Digi Stamp 1 and coloured the image with markers.  I then used a Poppy Crafts stitched edge oval die to cut it out.  She is so elegant, I thought she'd be perfect for a non-wedding card too.

My papers are from the Maja Design Coffee in the Arbour paper pack.  I've added a strip of lace and lots of Prima flowers, plus Anna Belle swirls and Dovecraft pearls.

The team have more to show you, so be sure pop over to the challenge blog to have a look.

DIGI DOODLE STUDIOS CHALLENGE #27: FLOWER POWER

This month at Digi Doodle Studios, we're going floral!  Our theme for the month is 

FLOWER POWER

This beautiful image is called Loves Me, Loves Me Not.

I have coloured the image with markers and used a Poppy Crafts die to cut it out.

 My paper is from the Stamperia Old Lace paper pack, and my flowers are all 49 and Market.  I couldn't find little pearl swirls the size I needed, so I made them, placing each pearl one-by-one.

My sentiment is a Stampendous! stamp and I've used another Poppy Crafts die to cut it out.

And finally, I've added a few little Pink Fresh Studio enamel dots.

  

We're looking forward to your version of Flower Power this month!  You can head directly to the challenge here:

MY BESTIES AUSSIE'S MAY CHALLENGE: ANYTHING BESTIE GOES

This month I decided to do something a little different to my norm for my DT project.  I decided to make a circular card.

I normally enjoy all the extra space a rectangular card gives me - to add loads of embellishments!

I cut the circular card base on my Cameo, and used a pretty pink paper from the Jennifer Ellory Emma's Garden pack.

This sweet little fairy is called I Am The Queen.  I coloured her with markers and then used a blade to cut her out and mounted her to the card with puffy pads.  

I've added a strip of Birch Creative lace and Green Tara flowers.

We'd like to see all your Besties creations this month, so be sure to link up with us!  

If you need to grab a new cutie or two, you can find the Besties store here:
