My Besties UK ..Anything Goes With Flowers

Hiya..Today's card as usual is coloured with Polychromos Pencils onto Neenah card.I just loved this Bestie since I saw her a while ago so I got her to use for my next card..I have to admit I was going to do a really arty waves background with seashells and an octopus etc ,but unfortunately Friday and Saturday I was in Bed ..all I did was sleep as was so sick..but back and ok now.. The Background Paper and inside paper is from a paper pad by GCD studio entitiled "Melody Ross" Designers collection ,this pad being the Lydia Collection  One of my last cards used the beautiful flower paper and this is the fabulous green and blue foiled paper ..I was only going to use this ,but when I was laying the card out the leaves to the flowers got lost so I added a piece the zig zag paper,this was an off cut from the First Editions pad Nerroli,it has formed a good background for the flowers as well as a contrast to the shinyness of the backing paper ..The flowers are from Tonic Verso Range and these are the Apple Blossom flowers..they are really pretty too and are sort of wavy-ish too that is why I chose these .I backed the three larger blooms and left the smaller ones filigreed as I  felt they looked a little softer that way....Thanks for popping by xx

Sasayaki Glitter.. Male Card

Hiya today I have done a footie card for the new challenge at Sasayaki Glitter..What a super cute little fella he is too ..Firstly I coloured him in with Polychromos Pencils onto Neenah card ,then drawing around the inside and the outside of some Xcut star dies I created the background that you see behind him..I used papers from the First Editions Neroli Paper Pad and mounted them onto black card..Once mounted onto the 8x8 base card I cut some red light card from my off-cut box and using a score board I embossed it with a check background..As it's the early hours of the morning I just did not want to get my machine out and this was the quietest option lol!..I then mounted this onto black card and glued aprox half way up the card..Then I mounted the image onto black card  and glued it in place with 3D glue gel ..The label I made using a smaller star from the same die set and hand wrote the sentiment..I then cut six stars in black card and added down either side of the image to finish..It makes a fab card for a little sports fan or even a big one ,and can easily be done in team colours ..I would have put a name on the shirt but there is no one for this card yet..Thank you for popping by..Happy crafting :)xx

New Release ..Digital Delights by Louby Lou

Hiya,These lovely alphabet digital stamps from Digital Delights are a really cute way of doing a card for a child using the initial as a feature..alternatively ,you could use all of them and make up a very colourful book and use it as a learning visual aid to teach your little one the alphabet..I have loved doing the two I have been asked to do..
I have coloured mine with Polychromos Pencils onto Neenah card,and I used Tonic Paper pads for the backing papers,both the image and the papers are all mounted onto craft card..Before I stuck the top pink layer down I applied some pretty cotton lace and some blue polka dot ribbon..I then used 3D glue gel to add the topper before adding the bow in the same ribbon ..To finish I added a mulberry paper flower from my stash and some pretty blue gems..Thank you for visiting :)xx

Sasayaki Glitter New Release


Today is New release day at Sasayaki Glitter and I chose this pretty fun image as I thought it lovely for the summer ,Yes I know What! Summer ..Have a little faith the day will come lol! .. I have coloured her with Polychromos Pencils onto Neenah card..The background is my addition and not on the original digital stamp ..I used craft card to mount all my papers and my image on ,these were all from the First Editions Neroli pad as they went beautifully with the colours I chose for the image .I could not get any proper craft bags from my local Hobycraft when I went up ,but got these from one of  those pound saver shops ..Great cheap way for doing little bags for kiddies parties ,you do not need to hand colour ,but you could easily do quicker decorated bags and would be a great way to send the cake etc home with them. I have kept the theme sort of garden the flowers another poundland purchase from last year I layered and added some pretty blue gems that change to green in different light ..This brings the blue from the clouds and the green from the grass out too.I added the butterfly and added 3D gel between the wings to hold then upright once dry,,To finish I added a couple of faux blue pearls and a pretty spotted bow ..Thank you for popping by xx

Blue Faery..Morgans Artworld Saturday Inspiration

Hiya ,todays card I have used one of the stamps from Morgan Fitzsimmons Flights of Fantasy from Crafter's Companion ,you can find it by clicking on the link of the cd's name below.I have coloured her with Polychromos Pencils onto Neenah card and have mounted her first onto craft card then onto Centura Pearl with a hint of Gold..The flowers are also made out of this too and I have coloured them with CC Spectrum Noir Sparkle Pens to go with the colours in the main picture.The Papers are from a First Editions pad called Neroli,these were also mounted onto craft card before being glued to the main base card which is 8x8 inches.I have coloured the leaves with the sparkle pens too but I have cut these from the off cuts of the craft card,this actually picks the glitter in the pens up much better..They are a nice way to add a gentle glitter and sparkle to your cards without spoiling the colour or making them look like you have tipped sugar on your work.The flowers are the new Tonic flowers called Sunburst Gazania..To finish the card I have added two pretty hearts,the tag will go on when it goes to the recipient ,as the few ladies I have like the cards named..Thank you for popping by Happy Crafting till Next Time :)xx

Away with the Fairies ..Sasayaki Glitter DT card

Just had to use the fab title this is just one of those cards I played and played on ..I think it took longer to make this one than any other ..It is for a seven year old Granddaughter who loves fairies..She is coloured onto Neenah card using Polychromos Pencils..The papers are from a pad I got from Liddl's a while back and have encapsulated glitter on them..I mounted these onto craft card..I cut the image out from TLace dotted fancy Circles and then cut a background from Basic Circles which just shows between the scallops..this was cut in craft card ..but a fairy needs sparkle so out came SN Sparkle Pens and I coloured around the edge of the circle and once dry I mounted the topper on top.Then I cut a strip of the same paper as the background ,matted with craft card and glued across center,then I cut another strip of craft card and sparkled with the pens again,then glued this on the top of the strip as you can see in the pics..I then cut two lots of  TLace  I think they are Springtime border flowers and hand coloured them with yes you guessed Sparkle pens again..The Butterflies are from Sara Davies Collection and also coloured with Sparkle pens ..It was fun being a kid again,but I am afraid its back to being a grown up again for my next card..Thank you for visiting .. Until next time Fairy Hugs n Kisses xx
