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.

Rockchick Card And Rockchick Night

Before I post pictures from the Def Leppard/Whitesnake concert last night I thought I'd show you a card I made for a good friend from one of the Rockchick doodles Kerry (curlygirlyme) sent to me when she sent me my card.
I used a Black and Teal blue colour combination.Black cardstock matted with Basic Grey Two Scoops teal coloured paper.I then used some black lace edged with teal and fixed it to the card using DST and black eyelets (don't ask where the lace was from!.....lol).The rock paper is by Crate and I ripped it to shape the card on either side.As the lace was a pain to stay stuck I decided to set more eyelets and making it lace up the front using teal ribbon.The stamped sentiment is from Studio G but I went over it with a black Sakura glaze pen.The red rose rub on was from a set I had (can't remember who by).The top right corner I've threaded teal ribbon through the eyelets and added a Dovecraft fancy brad but changed the central brad to a Papermania teal coloured pearl brad to match the colours as it was originally pink. I then added some pearls and teal ribbon under it. Kerry's rockchick doodle I coloured with my Prismacolor pencils and added some Papermania clear gems to the studded belt.I also used my Sakura black glaze pen on the beads.
The card was made as a thank you for a lovely,kind,generous deed done by a good pal.

Well what can I say about the Def Leppard/Whitesnake concert but WOW,WOW,WOW!. What a fantastic night.I was standing in the 3rd row from the stage slightly to the right so I could get a good view of David Coverdale and Doug Aldrich from Whitesnake and Joe Elliott from Def Leppard.(great eye candy!...lol) Whitesnake were on first and David Coverdale just played the crowd magnificently, especially the women. I have to say he totally made my night on two occasions.During the first track I got eye contact with him and blew him a kiss and he blew one back...swoonnnnnnnnnn....pmsl. Then nearer the end again I got eye contact and was blowing kisses with both hands and he responded again.....wooooooooooooo. No luck from Joe though....sniff.Def Leppard were excellent too though despite no kisses from Joe....pmsl.Was a fabulous night.My feet were sore,voice was hoarse and my hands were bruised from clapping,but I wouldn't have missed it for the world.
I've got a few pictures to post but will post better ones later as my friend had a better resolution camera so took most of the pictures.














Lastly I'd just like to say thanks to Beautifullily for the lovely blog candy of lace she had and that I can't believe I won. So many thanks for that.It's beautiful.

Gardenia Greenthumb

I finally got round to making this card using the Gardenia Greenthumb Fairy from the Chichiboulie range at Stamping Bella.
The PP is DCWV Pocketful Of Posies matted onto green Papermania Cardstock.I've used my Crop-A-Dile Big Bite to set the green eyelets.Threaded through some orange grograin ribbon and tied a piece of spotty green grograin through the knot.Also stuck a Fancy Pants pin through the knot which has a little green flower at the end. Stamped the sentiment using a Studio G stamp.coloured Gardenia in with my Prismacolor pencils and decoupaged her wings with vellum with Sakura Stardust applied.Used my punch to punch the corners and matted it onto orange card.I then punched the green card using my DoCrafts multishaper punch,and matted the image onto it.I've used 3d foam pads to attach it.The flowers are Flora Doodles with buttons in the middle.
