613 Avenue Create DT Card

I know I have said it a few times this year ,but I think this is one of my favourites yet this year..She is an AlicaBel digi Stamp and I have coloured her in using my favourites Polychromos Pencils,onto Neenah card..The little bird is my addition as some of you know I can draw a little and as this times challenge is.. Anything goes with a Bird in hand , I forgot the bird when choosing lol..So here is my take the little blue bird so that is NOT with the stamp ok...The papers I have used are from a supermarket called Lidle here in the UK these are the very last few I have I think and as it was late I did not want to disturb any one going into the bedroom at four in the morning and these were handy ..Puppy Dixie gets excited and tends to bark ..I am in a flat lol..You know how it goes lol..I mounted them onto craft card ,and chose this layout as although the paper is extremely beautiful it would have overwhelmed the image ,so I have used the plainer paper to high light her and I think it worked perfectly as she now pops of the card.I drew around the first layer of die to cut her out then cut the craft card a size bigger to mat on the machine ,this way I have her extending over onto the surround..I used Tattered Lace Basic Fancy Rectangles..For the branches and the flowers I used a Crafter's Companion die from the Kimono range of dies, this ties in perfect with the backing papers too .. I cut the flowers from the off cuts of the backing papers ..as they are encapsulated in glitter they look really pretty ..Thank you for visiting Hugs xx

With Love ..Sasayaki Glitter DT card

This is such a pretty image ..I have coloured it with Prismacolor Pencils on Neenah card..I have not used any papers on this one as I wanted it clean and simple ,showing only the pretty image and the delicate lace detail of the Tattered Lace dies that I have used to make this card..Rightly it should have been one of those cards that shut in on itself ..a Bi -folding card and the Dies were designed for that ,but also like any die that you buy you can play with them and come up with something quite different yourself.. I used the measurements on the back of the die packet and cut the height of the card needed to accommodate the die, but kept the length of the A4 card ..I cut the green card ,much more like a grass green in real time..with the outer die to give the shape of the card,then cut the two lace sections in an off white card. I them mounted and layered the topper so I had an idea of the bends I needed and worked them out evenly from the center point ,then scored on the scoreboard for a nice crisp fold.. I added SN Sparkle pens in Clear to the White lace on the edges of the card and,Glued on the topper and added on some tiny sweet like beads in the shape of flowers to the grass area ,then added a hand written sentiment to finish ..This was fun to make ,not as quick as I thought but fiddly and I don't know about you sometimes you just feel like doing something a bit different ..Enjoy your crafting :)xx

Flower Power Daffy ... Digital Delights by Louby Lou Dt Card

I have used the pretty Flower Power Daffy for this project and have coloured her in with Prisma Color Pencils onto Neenah card..I then fussy cut her out by hand and gently shaped her to make her more 3D.. I used the Blossoming Digital Paper pack too for this  also on the link below and I cut them and mounted them onto Purple card from my stash..I added two types of lace onto the green layer and then glued this down then popped a double bow onto it..I used 3D glue gel to add the little girl and added some small mulberry roses in a clump in the middle of the ribbon to make them look like those tiny multi petaled violets..I have no yellow card or Daffodil dies unfortunately but this is in the spring theme too..To finish i added a few tiny sparkling acrylic flowers across the bottom of the lace,on the top left hand and on the edge of the sentiment and stuck that on ..Thank you for visiting :)xx

All Dressed Up Wedding Card

Hiya ,todays card is a lovely image from All Dressed Up..I have only used part of the image as although the card was for a friend to give to her Cousin and they were more modern ,the image has the girl in a shorter dress and i thought it would be nice this way..I have enclosed it in a heart and used it as the centerpiece of the card and kept the main design fairly simple..I have coloured the image in with Polychromos Pencils on Neenah card and I cut it out using the Dotted Tattered Lace Dies..I then mounted it onto Silver mirror card  to give it impact,cut in a larger version of the same die..The papers are from the new Polkadoodles Winnie Sugar Sprinkles..I love Nicki's beautiful papers and they were just perfect for a summer wedding too..These were mounted onto Mirror card and I applied lace to the green layer and added some pretty sparkly hearts along the bottom to finish the detail and popped on the personalised sentiment ..Thank You for popping by :) xx

Morgans Art World Saturday Inspiration Project

Hiya ,its my Inspiration Saturday time again..Well today's project is definately an outside of the box for me ..I had chosen the beautiful image and coloured her on Neenah card with Polychromos pencils already waiting.. I had gone into my local Hobbycraft shop and saw these lovely slate hearts..Always fancied doing a bit of mixed media this is what I came up with this...Firstly I cut two hearts ,one in green card and one in Silver I added the Silver to the slate with 3D glue gel and a Tattered Lace panel die cut  ..I then added Faber Castell Metallic sticks to the green to give both texture and a different look, this was glued off set over the silver heart.I then added some Gauze and some pretty lace , followed by the topper which I had fussy cut out previously.I then added the decorative lace flower and lace Butterfly ..I just felt it was still lacking something so I rubbed some more of the Metallic Gel Sticks around the edge to finish..it is hard doing something different but I actually loved doing this so who knows ,maybe more like this to come ..Thank you for visiting :)xx

Sasayakai Glitter Easter DT Card

My Second card for this team..Its for an Easter challenge ,however to be honest in my kit I just have not catered for Easter as now I am older now and all the family have left home its in my heart but not a big money spend thing..I chose this bunny as I loved him ,and I have coloured him on Neenah card using my old faithful Polychromos Pencils.I then mounted him onto craft card,lemon spot paper and more craft card..All the papers used on this card I have used from a cd that I had through the post box this morning ..I am tickled pink as it catered for easter too lol..They are from the Latest Polkadoodles.. Winnie Sugar Sprinkles by Nikky Hall ..saved the day I tell you..I mounted everything onto craft card and added all as shown onto a 7x7 card blank..I was thinking as I was colouring the Bunny how it would also make a really nice babies card too ..Who knows ..Thank You for popping by :)xx
