Daring Cardmakers Challenge - Weather Theme

***WARNING...you might need shades for this card as it's bright***

I had already coloured this Miss Anya in as I'd received them from the USA last week and had planned on posting it.It just so happened it fitted in nicely with the theme at Daring Cardmakers which was to be weather themed,so I thought I'd enter it for the challenge.The card is very bright colours and I thought the image would look fab with these gorgeous BoBunny Papers.They're again from the Bella Journee range and this collection is Tuscany..I must be getting brave cutting them all up.I've only had them for a year or so...lol.
Sorry for the squiffy photo.I really need to practice more at better shots.

Copic Colour Challenge #15

I managed to get a card made in time for the Copic Colour Challenge this week.Last week I had the image coloured but didn't get time to make up a card with it so was determined to do it this week..This image I had coloured last week but only got round to making up the card last night.These were the colours we were to use.

I used the Gorjuss Girl from set 2 called "Bear Hug". I'm at the "coos tail" with these rubber stamps and also the Miss Anyas.I kept dithering on whether I really liked them or not,so by time I decide they're old news....lol.

I've coloured in a few more images and hope to get them made up into cards.The weather has been so lovely here though that we're making the most of it,so not been much crafting getting done.
Hope you're all enjoying the beautiful weather.

Copic Colour Challenge #13 & Colour Create Week 16

I thought I'd combine the Copic Colour Challenge and Colour Create.The Copic Colour Challenge was to use a sketch by Maddy and Colour Create was to use the colours chosen by Kim which were Sky Blue,Tan and Ecru with the extra option of gloss,glitter or glaze.

I'm not sure about this card,something about it i'm not liking but not sure what.I was going to just leave it off the blog,but it's done so may as well post it.I'm also not sure if those little fairies are supposed to be male or female.They have what looks like dresses but I think they look like little boys....lol

Copic Colour Challenge # 11

For the Copic Colour Challenge this week it was to use another three colours I normally would never have thought of using together,but like last weeks colours,they actually did work well.

For my card I've used the lovely image of Daisy with her Doll from Sugar Nellie and coloured her with my Copics.Thankfully I managed to get the camera to cooperate this morning so I could get a picture.

Well the weather has changed for the better here after teeming rain on Friday.So hopefully can enjoy the sun over the next two days.Hope you're all having a lovely Holiday Weekend.

Copic Colour Challenge #10

Well I decided to enter the Copic Colour Challenge again as I need to practise more with my Copics.I really struggled with the colours as what image to use and the Prussian Blue (B39) was very dark.I think I managed to sneak a little bit down the side of the vase.The card is quite CAS for me as I like to add lots of embellishments but thought it suited the image to keep it simple.The stamp was a bit of a pain too as it's not very detailed with the flowers so you've got to add the flower definition yourself.It probably lends itself better to being watercoloured.These are the colours we had to use.

This is my card

Cardstock - SU Rose Red,Papermania Cream
Ribbon - SU Very Vanilla and Regal Rose
Punch - SU Scallop Border,Carl Craft Corner

Copic Colour Challenge #9

The Copic Colour Challenge this week was to use the following colours.


Well I've never ever done a challenge before and so I'm right in at the deep end with this one using Copics,as I've only had mine a few weeks and still getting to grips with them.I suppose this is the best way to learn though.I'd have never ever used these colours together but was surprised how lovely they went together.I'm not particularly happy with the colouring of this image as I found it a bit fiddly,but it's done now.
