Morgans Artworld. ..Febuary Release

Hiya,this is my New release card and My fella's Valentines card too ..Does not need words on the front ,it says it all lol..I have coloured the beautiful image in using Polychromos pencils onto Neenah card,I then cut it out using one of the Mandella type Dies from Tonic,I think it was something Bramble,sorry I have had it ages and is stored on a magnetic sheet,..The main backing paper and the one inside are from First Editions Love Letters, and the pretty green smaller piece behind the image is from a Prima pad I had in a magazine a while back called Botanical Collection,which has a lovely grungy border around it and looks fab with the image..All the papers were matted onto Craft card..To finish I just added two hearts sparkly hearts in opposite corners..It is a simple card ,but it does not really need a lot as the image and the die are the main focus..Now to find a nice verse for the inside Thank you for popping by :)xx

DIGI..
Please note ..Mine has the banner ,the one in the shop has not  but it is included in the bundle ...so I popped in a  Happy Birthday from my pc...
I have used a 8x8 card blank and coloured the lovely digi with both touch five pens and Polychromos Pencils,onto Neenah card ..I then used the new Desert Rose set from Tattered Lace ,the basic dies to cut it out..I coloured and squiggled around the edge to give it a border..The doily part of the set I cut in a pale turquoise ,and mounted it onto warm yellow..colours I brought out of the image..I fussycut around the edge as I wanted it a bit softer than a die cut and added half one side of the topper and one the other..Its subtle but very pretty ,and I did not really want it to shout out..I then added some shop brought flowers to both sides to finish

613 Avenue Create Card

Hiya..To be honest I worried myself silly about this card and tried several attempts which ended in the bin and well.. I just could not think what to do apart from the sentiment..I cannot stamp due to the arthritis in my fingers so I was a bit stumped ..This is what I came up with in the end..
I cut a piece of water colour card to fit my card blank with an allowance for the mat..Then I cut out the middle size Tattered Lace Desert Rose flower and with a small stencil brush I added the water colour from the pens..First I scribbled it onto a glass mat which allowed me to pick up with the brush ..I used Rose, Pink,Sunflower and Sunset..I did not clean the brush between the colours as I did not want a defined difference in colour ..I am surprised at my first attempt how cool this looks as it is something I would never have thought of doing anything like this before so who knows what you will see next lol!.. I may even get some stencils next ..To finish the card I added the pre ..cut flower which I coloured orange ..I wanted the sentiment black but the rest of the card bright and sunny..I just love this sentiment ..It says so much ..Thank you for popping by :) xx

Sasayaki Glitter New Challenge Card

Hiya todays new card is for this month's challenge of the colour RED..I have used Touch Five pens and finished with Polychromos Pencils to colour in the lovely image of Lucy..I then used a Tattered lace Scalloped stitched Basic die set to cut out the image and the craft card base behind it..The papers I have used are from Tonics paper pad Folksy Florals and as these are the closest to reds that I have in papers ..I chose to use red accents in the background layers,all these were then mounted onto craft card...The flowers were cut from a Flower Punch from Hobbycraft I brought some years ago and I coloured them red to suit the card with my Pens ,Once done I then added little pretty white resin flowers with a pink center to finish..Once I glued down the papers to my 8x8 card blank I then added the topper with 3D glue Gel and added some Tuck -in Butterflies from Tattered Lace just under the edge to add a little texture and interest..I then glued on the flowers and leaves( also from a punch) and added a few red heart gem in alternate corners..Thank you for visiting :)xx

Sasayaki Glitter New Release

Hiya..Todays card is using this lovely image that I have coloured in Touch five Pens and finished with Polychromos Pencils..I know it is a bit unusual for me ,but my poor hands are suffering and the pens are a little gentler to colour with,...Sadly I am not much a Pen Colourist and have to finish in pencils which I know best... I have cut it out and added it to a craft card mat..The backing papers are from my tonic paper pads I have used the background one from the Folksy Florals one ,sadly not sure which the other two are from as they are from a part pad with no cover ,but they are still Tonic ones..These were also mounted onto craft card too and arranged on my 8x8 card blank..The topper was added with 3D glue gel ..The flowers also from Tonic are called Starburst Gazania..The bottom layer coloured to complement the card and I left the top white as you can see..I love the whole set of these flowers they really make a great feature on a card and complements the topper to as it adds to the fun theme of the card..I finished the card by adding faux peals in two different designs to the smaller and larger flowers..Thank you for Popping by :) xx

Sasayaki Glitter Challenge Reminder Card

Hiya..For the challenge reminder card ,I have coloured the lovely Mia in with Polychromos Pencils onto Neenah card,I then cut her out leaving a small white outline around her to help her pop off the background paper..The papers I have used are from Crafter's Companion English Country Garden Paper pas ..The die cut for the Aperture and clothes are from China so name unknown ,but ideal for this card..I hand coloured all the accessories..Pens GRRRR!!! the tops show PINK and they come out orange ,my light in the front room is not that great and it was not until they were all done that I tried them under the White light by the pc that I found out..However you go in shops and their designs dont always match your clothes..In fact I think it has given a pretty pop of contrasting colour to the card..The papers were mounted onto craft card ,and the pretty flowers were punched using a punch from Hobbycraft I have had for a while ,as were the leaves..To finish I added some pretty faux multy pearls which make a nice center for the flowers ..Thank you for visiting :)xx
