A Lovely Friend card (Digistamp Boutique image)

Easter girl with Easter Egg (Little Miss Muffet image)

Hi crafty friends,

Here's a sweet little Little Miss Muffet image that I added to Polkadoodles background cloud and polka dot papers. They were all PNG images which means you can add the black & white girly image onto the coloured background papers and print them out. It looks strange when you print it but once you colour up the image I think it looks great together and I'll be sure to do this more in the future. I also added the sentiment before printing too. The plaid paper is from Lawn Fawn.

Big hugs from a fairy (Di's Digis image)

Hi crafty friends,

Here's another gorgeous digi image I printed out ages ago and have only just got around to colouring and creating with. You can find this lovely fairy at Di's Digis. I used a lot of die cuts for this scene, mostly from Lawn Fawn and some fluffy clouds from Flourish with a Bling.

I am entering this card into the following challenges:

Aloha Fridays - in the garden

As you like it - single or multi-layer - I definitely find multi-layer easier to create, I always think something is missing if I try clean and simple. I love adding these die cut layers to create a scene.

Love Sweet Love Valentine's Day card

Hi Crafty Friends,

When I have a few cards to blog at the same time, I always seem to leave my favourite card to the end. 

This was an image I printed out years ago when I first started colouring with Copics. I was going through my stash of old b&w images and came upon this one that is perfect for Valentine's Day! Sometimes black and white images don't stand out that much until you colour them and that was the case with this one, once it was coloured it's really cute and fun and I wondered why I hadn't coloured it years ago lol.
