Scrappers Delights .. LUV

I fell in love with this image a long time ago and have been waiting for a chance to use her..Cupid does not have to be dressed in white and have blond hair so for this one I have gone a bit Funky.. The image is coloured in using Polychromos pencils on Neenah card .I have used reds and pinks which when they have all blended together have come out a lovely warm raspberry colour..The papers are from First Edition.. Love Letters and mounted onto craft card,then I've used used a tonic die to cover the join but left it white as a contrast. I shaped the angel and used 3D Collal glue gel to pop her in place,then made a small plack out of the same paper out of the one behind the angel and then mounted it on craft card added the brown ribbon and the letters also from the paper pad and these were also mounted on craft card ..All these were added to the card using the 3D glue and helping to give a bit of depth..Thank you for visiting..Hope you like her :)x

My Besties, Anything goes ,with a Silver

These adorable girls are what first got me into colouring and this is my first of what I hope of many DT post for them .. I have used silver as my background throughout and also coloured her hair silver too . Right from the beginning the lovely image is coloured in using Poly Chromos Pencils on Neenah solar white card .,I outlined the chosen die to go around her and hand cut it out paying attention to the tiny bows at her feet. I then did the same with the silver card as it was about four in the morning and being in a flat ..well you understand..The Tonic die-cut I already had so I coloured with BT2 and BT4 Spectrum Noir Pens to get a slight varied effect then I backed this with silver card too..These pieces were then all glued together with Collall 3D glue and set to one side whilst I started matting and layering my backgrounds up. The two papers both come from a fabulous paper pad by DCWV Fresh Floral Stack.. I mounted these all onto silver card using Collall All Purpose glue, Then added to a cream 8x8 card blank.. To finish I added the topper using Collall 3D glue and the flowers and hand written tag to give dimension ..

Scrappers Delights anything goes with a twist..Favourite Colours

Its Challenge time again and here is my inspiration and it was so much fun too .I just love the beautiful colours so rich and vibrant and of course my favourite colours.. I have used Crafters Companion  Neenah Solar White card, I coloured the Lovely image in with Spectrum Noir pens and coloured pencils,then I fussy cut her out. I then chose three complimentary papers from a DCWV Paper Pad called Fresh Florals Stack. I mounted each onto some green card I got from Lidl last summer. This I then arranged as shown onto the card base which is an 8x8.The smaller piece directly behind the fairy I popped a butterfly edge border for a bit of interest.When all this was done,I then gently shaped the fairy around a thin bottle to give her a bit of shape so when she was placed on the card she would not look flat..Then I added her with £d glue gel Brilliant as it gives a bit of wiggle so if you need minute adjustment it's there.The flowers are cut out of White Centura Pearl with a hint of gold. I have used the new Crafters Companion flowers that have recently come out as I thought they just suited the card nicely.The buds at the end are done by removing two of the petals off the forget-me-not ones and gluing with tacky glue..I added gems and a butterfly cut from a free die from one of the mags last year..Just love free.Thank you for looking :)x

The beautiful image can be found here ... She is a part of a set but you can find individual single pixies here in the shop under fairies and under fantasy too :)x

Footie .Does not need to be boring ...

This is my other card for my friend..I do not like football, and for all the time I have been friends with her I have done footy cards for her Son..well there is only so much you can do with a shirt and a football rofl..I designed the paper on my Docrafts Digital program,printed it out found a football tube and then using a vintage Forever friends digi of the Docrafts Digital kit I have i coloured it up with Prismacoulours on Neenah card..Fussy cut it out and rolled it around a small bottle to shape.I Then mounted the paper onto black card and added it to my 8x8 card blank.Cut the football in half and added it to the top of the paper.  To finish I added the Topper with 3D glue  to make it stand proud and give dimension.It has turned out to be a fun card and She wad just tickled pink with it ,thank you for taking the time to look :)x


Crafter's Companion Moonbeam Meadow Frame Card

A long time friend asked me to do a couple of cards for her so this is the one it is a Moonbeam Meadow Everyday Frame card and it is just simply gorgeous..I live this disc such pretty images and papers all the way through... Its easy to do as it is click and print.. Cut carefully around the outside of the frame card..When you have done this you will see there are very fine marks on the paper,these are your score lines ,so score along these lines ..please note it is not clear but I have enclosed a picture highlighting the cut lines from the center to the from that need cutting I do hope it is clear enough for you (see bottom picture ) ,as they are only dots on your print out..Dont forget to cut the center out.The lines need to be nice and crisp for a good result..When you have done all this then using tacky glue because you need a very good quick strong bond ,glue all four corners.I find this easier to add the backing picture to put the Glue directly onto the frame and place over the picture and gently press,because you have a bit of wiggle space you can then do minor adjustments when you pick it up..I then left this to dry .Then I matted Up paper from the CD onto craft card added a ribbon and MUM in Silvercard from Dicuts and popped it onto an 8x8 card blank. 
I then added the frame ,ribbon a sentiment and flowers to decorate..Thank You for looking and I hope this has helped :)x
Here is the diagram showing the cut for the center of the frame
Please remember to keep your
folds nice and sharp it maked the finished frame
look beautiful :)x
