Whiff of joy meets sugar nellie

My mojo seems to be on holiday this week and I had abit of a struggle on my hands today getting this card to gel. I say this card but it is really these cards as there are 3 cards that are the same.......or are they.
I am joining in with the Whiff-of-joy challenge blog, Heather has made a lovely sketch for us all to follow. I used the stump from the WOJ spring kit and teamed it up with my sugar nellie stamp. I made some of the backing papers using the rollagraphs I got from imaginations-crafts and highlighted them with the mica powders that are exclusive to them. I also coloured the flowers with the mica powders.

Okay if you are still with me at this point on to the fact that these cards all look the same but are not. I have used different mediums to colour the images with the first closeup shows the image coloured with my inkadink inks that are from imagination-crafts and they did say they where new. I don't think they are on the web site yet. The second image is coloured with my prisma pencils which I haven't used for so long and thought it would be nice to dust them off. The last image is coloured with my copic pens which are fast to colour with. Would love to know which is your favourite its just interesting to see the difference in the finish with the different mediums.
Materials used:
Stamps: Whiff of joy Stump
Sugar Nellie A good book
Imagination crafts: Rollagraph and mica powders
Coloured with inkadinks, prismas and copic
Papers: Basic gray

celebrate the everyday

I'm totally behind on myself I have had this card made for the last 3 days and just didn't get time to post it. I wanted to use to take part in a couple of challenges and am still going to even though they have passed.
I followed the sketch on Sketch-saturday which was alot of fun.
The challenge on spoon-full-of-sugar was paper piecing. The trousers and the top are paper pieced and then coloured abit to give depth.
The challenge on the Whiff-of-joy blog is to use purple and greens. I cheated alittle and used my distressing inks to make papers the colour that I needed.

The inside of the card is stamped with see d's stamp and then chalked so it doesn't look stark.
Materials used.

Christmas with love

I got this Imaginisce paper at the weeking and was itching to use it. I have followed the sketch on Whiff-of-joy blog created by Heather.
You may notice it has a snowflake or 2 on the card. I am also joining the guys on Cute-card-thursday there theme this week is Snow/snowflakes.
I have used the Imaginisce paper as the inspiration for the colourway of the card. The other papers are of course K&co I bought a box of papers that cost £15.99 for 150 sheets of 12x12 and I am loving them.
I have used the Cuttlebug folders with the one across the middle I have picked out the snowflakes with my versamark pen and chalked it to colour them. With the Snowflakes folder that I used for the longer mat I used a pearl glaze to highligth some snowflakes and glittered the others.
The snowflakes are cuttlebug also. I glittered them and added jewels to give abit more bling.
The image is of course a Whiff of joy stamp, I have replaced the flowers on the trousers with snowflakes to help make it more festive.
The image is coloured with prismas and copics. I used my copics on the hair, skin and to add shading to the jeans after colouring them with my prisma pencils.

From the heart

I have really enjoyed making this card. I have used the sketch from Whiff-of-joy challenge blog. I have used lying Matthew guardian angel from Whiff of joy stamps.
I didn't have a flower to match so I coloured a cream one to match with Inks. The middle of the flower is a swarovski crystal. I have used ribbon with stars on to help make the background more interesting.
The sentiment is from Whiff of joy also. I bought the charms from ebay and have combined them to make 1 larger charm, I added blue glitter to the embossed heart.Stamps Whiff of joy

take it easy

On the Whiff-of-joy challenge blog this week Heather has made a lovely sketch for us to follow.
I have used the chair and coloured it with distressing inks. I mounted Willow in the chair and 3d mounted her in areas to give it depth.I have used various papers to hopefully give it a warm feeling. The picture isn't great hopefully I will be able to change it tomorrow.
Willow is coloured with prisma pencils. Papers are from imaginisce & basic gray.
I have 3d glazed the mug to make it look like ceramic.
