Sketch Saturday

Another challenge with this card.I've used the sketch from Sketch Saturday - Sketch #74.I've used some artistic license with it to fit with my card,but in all follows pretty much the sketch.It's also a first for me as I don't make Halloween cards generally,but saw this image on a blog called Wendy's Digital Doodling and thought it was cute and it was also a free download.

World Cardmaking Day

Seeing as today is World Cardmaking Day I thought I better try and get a card made to celebrate the fact.I've been a bit uninspired recently and not been making much apart from a few commissions.Anyway,today I decided to just knuckle down and get on with making one.I bought some gorgeous new BoBunny papers from the Flutter Butter range at Craftology.If they don't inspire me nothing will...lol.I also found my EK Success Cutter Bee Bugs that had got buried under a pile of stash and used them for the piercing.They're fabby little tools and so easy to use.They come in single row,double row and zig zag.I'll probably use them now until I'm sick of them...lol.

A Simple Birthday Card

This is a simple card I made for a friends birthday.She loves elephants,so I used a Little Claire elephant stamp and coloured it with my Copics.I used my Copic glitter pens to bling up the flowers a bit.The papers are one of my faves Daisy Buckets Little Black Dress.I've kept the card fairly simple (makes a change for me).Just added a bit of black organza ribbon and some little red flowers.

Well I'm off to try and finish a LO for my scrapbook class at Craftology on Monday.This is the last until after the summer.I don't really post them on here as I know most are cardmakers that pop by so I just stick them on my slide show.I really feel like just putting my feet up though as i'm knackered after doing Body Combat...lol,but I better give myself a shake and get it finished.

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.

Another Gorjuss Girl.....

I must admit I really love these images even though they've got no mouths...lol.This is number 3 for me and I bought the gorgeous new Blueberry Hill Papers from Papermania which are beautiful so decided to use them.I also decided to use some vellum which I've had for ages and never knew what to do with.
I'm off to crack on with a scrapbook page for my class on Monday night.I want to get it done so I can enjoy the holiday weekend without rushing at the last minute (like usual...lol)
