Clean And Simple

Hi di hi all!

Yet another card from me!

This time it's my DT card for the curent challenge at

The Crafting Cafe

where this month's theme is

Clean & Simple

The image I have used is Daffodil from this months sponsor

 LEJ Designs

Lindsay's shop is closed for the moment so, the 

only way you can snag her lovely images is to win them or 

to find a freebie on the LEJ Designs Challenge Blog

I coloured the image with a mix of promarkers & flexmarkers,

cut it out with a circle nestie then inked the edge with a

Cat's Eye liquid chalk inkpad.

The corners of the card were rounded with a woodware punch

& the sentiment is from Craftwork Cards.

The image & sentiment were both popped up on some foam pads!

You still have time to play in the challenge, I look forward

to seeing what you make!

Good Morning Bloggers!

A second card from me & it's not even breakfast time yet! Lol!

This is my post for The Crafting Cafe if you'd like to see my

post for Just Inklined, please scroll down.

The theme over at The Crafting Cafe this month is 

Winter Blues

I have used an image from our sponsor is LEJ Designs.

She's called Unhappy Angel.

I can understand why she's not so happy & feeling a little blue, she

only gets out once a year & she's stuck atop the Christmas tree!

I'll leave the rest to your imagination!

At least she's warm & cosy indoors though, especially with all those lights!

Quite a simple card. I coloured the image with a mix of Flexmarkers

& Promarkers, trying to use as many different blues as possible.

I then added some Glossy Accents to the lights & her eyes!

I have to say here eyes look a little odd in the photo as the

light is shining from above! I did intend to take my card to work so

I could get some daylight photo's at lunchtime but silly me forgot!

I had to use my lamp which isn't that great!

Santa if you're listening???? lol

I added some twine, a couple of little jingly bells & some ribbon.

The glittery reindeer is punched out with my latest purchase!

Cute isn't it!

I forgot to mention the little de-bossed Christmas Tree border

& the little sentiment banner from my stash.

Here's the inside of the card!

Summer's Here

Good Morning all! Sunday already!

Today's little card is for The Crafting Cafe where the 

challenge theme is Summer's Here!

How true that is here in the UK, I'm just loving it!

Our sponsor this time is our lovely Lindsay

LEJ Designs

Who provided the DT with some cracking images to create with!

The image I have used is Beachy Fun

The papers are from a Do Crafts Creativity Club Members Download

I did some paper tearing & added touches of giltter.

The sentiment is from the download too. 

This wasn't the original sentiment.I had it printed & cut

 but I lost it in a bundle of me stash & though I searched high & low I couldn't find it!

 That is until the card was done of coursewhen it just fell at my feet! LOL!

 Is it just me that happens to?

The sky is tumbled glass distress ink & I drew in some birds with 

a Letraset fine marker.

I decorated the inside of the card too but omitted the glitter as

I find that clogs up your biro when you write your message!

Thanks for popping in!
