Let's Eat Cake Card (Whiff of Joy image)


Hi Crafty Friends,


I hope those of you in Summer are enjoying some lovely warm days, I'm thinking of you while I'm chilly in the midst of Winter here in Oz. 

I have coloured up an image from Whiff of Joy this time, he's a very cute image don't you think? Sadly I have just seen they are closing down so they have a big sale on all products including digi images. 

I inked around all the papers to give it a bit of a grungy feel but because it is most likely a younger boys card I didn't want to distress it too much. 




I now have an Etsy shop where some of my cards are for sale - if you're interested please click HERE. I am adding to the selection all the time and I will sell worldwide.

Bunny Zoe - Furry friends
Crafty Hazelnut's Patterned Paper - Anything goes with patterned paper
Cute Card Thursday - We love cake

Peach and Teal Shaped Card (Aurora Wings image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

I have a new card to show today and this time I have used a lovely image from Aurora Wings. I coloured her with copics and then used one of my peach copic markers to create a mottled effect behind the image. It was very easy to do, I scribbled lightly with it and then dotted the marker all over it being careful not to outline the image so it didn't look like I had gone around it.

I used some of my gorgeous Spellbinder dies that I don't often use but I really should use more often. 




I am entering this card into the following challenges:

Aurora Wings - Sprite delight II
Catch the Bug - Anything goes
Crafting from the Heart -  Anything goes
Creative Inspirations - Anything goes or sketch
Loves Rubberstamps - Anything goes

Simon Says Stamp (Wed) - We're going dotty (I dotted around the image for the mottled look)

Sparkles - Vintage or Shabby chic
