Digital Delights by Louby Lou ..New Release

Hiya this was a really fun card to make..I coloured the lovely image in with my Polychromos Pencils on Neenah card ,then fussy cut it out leavind a small white line around her..I then created the card usinga template of a mitten from Dutch Doo Ba Doo,The outer card is cut from Gold Centura card and the inner card is a paper printed from a Polkadoodles cd I went around the edge of it with a faux stitch on the inside and out of the card... To decorate the mitten I used pretty lace at the bottom and some check ribbon and once I had stuck my image on with 3D glue gel and added the sentiment I added a variety of colours and sizes of punched snowflakes to the card..It is very novel and I was a bit worried when I started as never done anything like this ,but once I got going I was fine ,in fact it was more fun than I have had in making a card for ages as it was outside the box ..Thank you for popping by :) xx

Morgans Artworld.>Saturday Inspiration

Hiya,for todays card I have for the first time coloured an image twice..I loved this one last year ,so as I am trying to get my cards done for Christmas I take every opportunity to get another done..I have coloured her using Polychromos Pencils on Neenah card..The beautiful papers are from First Editions Guilded Wishes I think its called ,I cannot find the cover at the moment.It has the most sumptuous papers in this collection ,glittered ,foiled and plains .being neutral colours they tend to work with everything...These ones have glittered Snowflakes on them .so rather than mat and layer ,covering them up I decided to design it simply as you can see.the sparkle through the die cuts on your left..I have backed the little figure dies with white card to help them pop out more then gently curled them slightly to give them more depth before adding with 3D glue gel..Thank you for popping by :)xx

Saturday Sketch New DT Card ..Happy Print Club Printables

Hiya for this new DT I have started it is a bit different for me ,First it is using a sketch for the design of the card ,I have never done that ,but it is fun and for my first card the sponsor is Happy Print Club,and they are great for lovely images like this one that I have used today and of course many more for all occasions..
I printed mine several times and decoupaged mine to make it 3D  and popped it onto a pretty lilac slightly oblong card to which I have just added a simple pen outline background to it ,this has kept it very soft and pretty without detracting from the main image.,This was then mounted onto some Purple Centura Pearl..The backing Papers for this card were from Firs Editions Mulberry kissed and these were also mounted onto the same Centura card..The whole card was made from just one sheet of white with a hint of gold Centura pearl,which I folded as you can see in the picture..I dont think the measurements would help as they would be different for every card ,but the box bit at the back I have made at about one and a half inch depth ,this helps the card to stand even with the weight of the topper on it ..But the width and where you pop it is up to you in your own design..Then I added a brace bar across the bottom ,Ideally I would use a small Magnet or even velcro ,that would allow the one end to be detatched and allow the card to fold for posting..If you popped the brace lower you could pop one of those battery lights in and it would look pretty on a Christmas card too ..Thank You for popping by :)xx

613 Avenue Create Challenge Card

Hiya ,today's card has a beautiful image on from A Day with Daisies Digi on it ,I love their stamps ,a little different from every one else's ,but they always look special on a card or project. I have coloured it in with Polychromos Pencils onto Neenah card..Then cut out with Tattered Lace bascic notched rectangles,I then drew around some faux stitching and mounted it onto a pretty green backing card cut from the same dies but obviously the next size up...For the main card I have used A beautiful patterned Kanban foiled Christmas sheet of card, This was mounted onto the green card too.For the decoration I wanted to keep it reasonably light so I cut a few snowflakes in various sizes using some dies i purchased from Honkong and clustered these here and there..Instead of putting bling in the middle of the snowflakes I used the Tonic Nuvo in the triangle bottom that gives structure snow or balls with a twinkle ..I have added extra picture in which you can click on and see them more closely,and see the card ,which is a really great quality ..Thank you for popping by :)xx

Saturday Inspiration Morgans Artworld

Hiya ,Today's card for my inspiration is following the theme of Using embossing Wet or Dry..I have used Embossing folders from Crafter's Companion ..sorry I do not know which on as it is not labeled and do not have the packaging. I Coloured the image in using Polychromos Pencils onto Neenah card ,Then mounted onto craft card then white card..The colours I chose were inspired by the beautiful sunrise we had the other morning..For the embossed card I used Centura Pearl in a deep teal ,it is beautiful embossed as it really gives it depth and definition I think plain card does not give.The rose die is from one of Sara;s English Country Garden and coloured with SN Sparkle pen. And the flourish from Butterfly Lullaby..The tag is a Happy Birthday tag from Docraft's..To finish I added some pretty yellowish beige faux pears..Thank you for popping by :)xx

Digital Delights By Louby Lou New Release

Hiya for todays New release card I have coloured with my usual Polychromos pencils onto Neenah card,this was then mounted onto Red Centura Pearl .I then added some flat loose glitter to the tree for sparkle  and origionally added it to the roof ,but it looked gloopyand wishy washy  and in the end I removed it and used Tonic Nuvo(  in the triangle shaped bottle which is a stand up glitter) ,so this actually stays white and although a bit shiny it sparkles like snow on the roof and on the floor of the kennel.. I put this to one side to dry whilst I went on to do the main card.
Fot this First Editions Vintage Noel was used ,Beautiful rich papers and having the Santa in the one circle was a bonus as it fit in with the theme nicely..I added the topper with 3D glue gel and then the sentiment that came with the kit,I trimmed the outer circle down as I wanted to add some red card around it without it looking too big ,as it had been printed slightly too big..To finish I added two bown with White,silver and red on ,one to each side of the image.. Thank you for popping by :)xx

Morgan's Artworld Saturday Inspiration

Hiya ,for todays card ,I have chosen Angel ,the theme is Frame it . I coloured her in with Polychromos Pencils onto Neenah card ..Then using one of my newer sets of Tonic dies called Ribbons and Bows..First drawing around and hand cutting the one around the image then cutting one in Holographic Silver for behind the image ,and a further one in Purple behind that to show through the holes..I hope by the angles in the pictures you can see how lovely the dies are and the beautiful Papers ,the top one being glittered ,and from First Edition's Mulberry Kisses ..These I just mounted onto silver as I wanted the image as focus..,not the backing card.Although the design is fairly simple it has taken as long as some of my other cards  with all the layering throughout..I was going to leave it unadorned ,but decided on the bow ,and popping the three pretty ribbon flowers in the center..then finishing with three gems on the bottom right..You will notice that one has moved ,but I had already put them on the blogs and now the naughty gem is in place ..must have knocked it ..sorry It is 6.40 in the morning and I have not been to bed yet so you must excuse my ibperfections lol! ....Thank You for popping by :)xx

Sasayaki Glitter Mid Month Inspiration Card

Hiya ,..This is my last Halloween card for this year ,so its a pretty one with a cute image..I think it is too cute to scare lol!..I have coloured her using Polychromos Pencils onto Neenah Solar White card,I then cut it,mounted it onto first Purple Centura Pearl then onto Black card..The background paper is rescued from my bits n bobs box ,so sorry not sure of the make as was a long way down..But it went perfectly with this..I wanted the image as the main focus on this card so only used one Paper and felt it would have looked a bit overcrowded if I had added more. So I mounted it onto black card then added the topper using 3D glue gel..The sentiment was created on the pc and was also mounted onto black card and added with 3D glue gel..To finish I added three flowers down the one side of the image and popped some pretty faux pearl gems into the center of them ..Thank you for visiting

Digital Delights By Louby Loo

I coloured this super cute image in with my Polychromos Pencils onto Neenah card.. I then fussy cut her out leaving a slight border around her.The background papers are from Dovecrafts called Krafty Christmas ,I think it was from last year...These I have mounted onto red card..The fancy frame behind the image is a Tonic Die set called Tis the Season,This I coloured using a gold and green ink pad,this has given a nice rich and pretty background for the girl to be mounted onto.This I added with 3D glue gel and also the Girl too ..The sentiment from the die set ,I coloured with SN Sparkle pens and cut away the outer frame,as it is rather large and I wanted it to be slightly smaller..However it still looks lovely like this too..The hat and mittens a die set ,so sorry I do not know the make  ..I only wish I had backed them with white card now ,but will know next time..Thank you for popping by :)xx

Sasayaki Glitter New Release

Hiya..One thing with Halloween you can go crazy with colour and get away with it ,hence the green face lol!..I have coloured her in with Polychromos Pencils onto Neenah card ,I then did a squiggle around the edge and added a few more spiders and a cobweb to help set the scene..I deliberately gave the background a dusty,puffy feel to add to the mood and of course a moon with the clouds and a bat flying over.This was then mounted onto black card as were the papers..These were from First Editions Mulbery Kisses..Ssorry they look beige on the picture but they are actually more Purple as the name Mulbery means..,for some unknown reason ,just does not show on the pics...After matting and layering the papers down I used a felt mat I have in my stash to pop behind the topper ..It really helps bring out the black in the card as well as looks a little creepy too.I placed this behind the topper which was then added using 3D glue Gel..To finish I used some tiny square gems I brought off Ebay,these look like sweeties so I drew some faux wrappers onto them and then glued the squares down ..these are my treats ,the trick is getting the lovely Dorrie onto the broom to fly off into the moonlight lol! ..Thank you for popping by :)xx
