Crafting when we Can #23 Monochrome

It's time for a new challenge at CWWC and this time we'd like to see your monochrome creations.  We're being sponsored by Fresh Brewed Design.

I've used a Fresh Brewed image which I think was a freebie. I've coloured with promarkers then cut the image out and mounted with silicon gel. Backing paper is a Tatty Ted one; doily was from a Sheenie Angel envelope; surf board and sandals are chipboard magazine freebies; sentiment, gems ribbon and button are from my stash. Card is finished with some stickles.

Do pop over to the challenge blog to see the creations of my team mates.

Digi Makeover - dimension

Crafting When We Can #11 Valentines

Time for a new challenge at CWWC and the theme is Valentines.  We're being sponsored by Fresh Brewed Designs who supplied images for the Design Team, I've used Bee Mine.

Due to unforeseen circumstances the DT only got this challenge theme and images on Friday so this is a rather off the cuff creation! I made a cupcake, unfortunately we had nothing in the house to decorate it with so I had to leave it plain! The red base has been embossed with hearts but I don't think it shows up very well in the photo!

• Image: Bee Mine from Fresh Brewed Designs
• Medium: promarkers 
• Punch: Martha Stewart
• Embossing Folder: Cuttlebug
• Flowers, leaves and gemstone from my stash
• Sentiment is computer generated.

Crafting When We Can #1 Do it your way

Welcome to CWWC , our first challenge theme is Do it Your Way and we are being sponsored by Fresh Brewed Designs. The DT were very lucky to be given some Fresh Brewed images to play with and this is what I did with mine:

Using the "Hot Date" image coloured with promarkers and highlighted with a gelly roll pen. Backing paper is from a Wild Rose Studio stack for men. Sentiment is computer generated. I've matted everything onto black card and added some black gems to finish the card off.
