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

Kitten in a Cup


I found this new digi on Etsy ,she is from a new Designer from Pennsylvania in the United States, She has just been showing her stampps on FB so look out for her ,her name is Jennifer Nilsson..I think you will be seeing a lot of her work soon as she is very talented.. I have coloured the lovely image in using Polychromos pencils onto Neenah card..I then cut this out with a Tattered Lace  Essential notched rectangle die, then cut some dark green Centura Pearl for the mat..The papers I have used are from First Editions Desert Blooms and these have also been matted onto the Centura Pearl too..The flowers are made up from some shop brought blooms I brought years ago ,and have been shaped and layered with 3D gel glue.,to finish I just sprinkles the odd leaves around the frame..I have made this for a cat loving neighbour ,I think she will love it Thank you for popping by :)xx

Guest designer 3D card

Hiya!..For this card I have used a lovely Lemon Shorbread image..My friend requested it to be done in 3D so this is my version..Boy its harder than just normal decoupage as you need to colour so much of each image so it does not show white on the edges..I have coloured her three times onto Neenah card with my Polychromos Pencils and fussy cut her out,I used 3D gel glue to build the layers as its easier for me as my fingers are not very nimble and I can add as much or little as I wish to get the depths I want too.
I used Tonic dies for the beautiful doily and the flower ,the papers are from First editions Mulberry Kisses and the Best Wishes are Tattered Lace..The papers and the flowers are matted onto Pink Centura Pearl..I used these as they give a soft shimmer to the card which is really pretty in both daylight and night light too..The dies used behind the image itself are ones I got from China ,so sorry no name for them just a great bargain for me lol!..I used white card to back the leaves and the flowers and a pretty pearlised resin rose was popped into the center of each on to finish..Thank you for visiting today :)xx

Saturday Inspiration Morgans Artworld

Hiya I have been waiting ages to colour this one ,I think she is so pretty I have coloured her with Polychromos Pencils onto Neenah card...The frame is a shop brought chip board frame which came in two pieces.I covered the front with glitter paper from First Editions Desert Blooms and used some torn off cuts from a piece of paper from their Mulberry Kisses pad to bring a bit more colour and texture into the frame.For the decoration I used Burlap ribbon and some pretty floral lace ,I backed the lace with the ribbon at the bottom to make it stand out more ,but used it as a band as you can see and a bow on the top.To finish I added some shop brought blooms and added pearlescent roses to the center of each one..I would have added acetate to cover the picture ,but it photographs better without..
The frame just cost a pound ,and could make a lovely gift or a special card, a keepsake for a special birthday or wedding etc..you can use a coloured image or even a photograph to make it special ..its will make someone smile that they have something so bespoke and made with love too ..Thank you for visiting :)xx
