JIC MONTHLY challenge

Hi everyone,

Over at Just Inspirational to give you an extra challenge each month.  As you will know our weekly challenges usually have a digi company as a sponsor, so we thought why not have a monthly challenge where you can win something physical! Maybe some candy from one of the DT, maybe a voucher for a shop, maybe a goody bag!

So what do you need to do?  Simply make a card following the theme and link up!

For our first challenge we are are sponsored by the lovely Lisa at That Craft Place


Who will send the winner a yummy goody bag!

So the theme?

ANIMALS - you can use any animal you like, bears, birds, pigs, elephants, horses etc as long as the animal is a main part of the card.

Here is what i did:

I was asked to make a friend a wedding card for her aunt who was getting married.  I always think red and white/cream go well together and then i found the paper from Boofle with tiny red hearts and knew it would be perfect!  The image is Wee Stamps and is coloured with promarkers.  The flowers are from Dottie 4 Crafts.  The ribbon was in my stash as were the gems.  The little letter charms i got from ebay.

I hope you will join in over at JIC 

I would like to enter this into the following challenges:

One Heart

This gorgeous image was a freebie on Whimsy's facebook page a few weeks ago and i had printed her out but not coloured her! She is called One Heart

So another quick and simple card was on the books.

She is coloured with promarkers 

Paper is Cart R Us (i think)

Butterflies were punched with a Tonic Studios punch

And that was it!

Just Inspirational Challenges DT Card

It's that time again at Just Inspirational, i can't believe this is our 13th week already!

This week we are sponsored by the brilliant Stitchy Bear Designs and here is our inspirational photo.

This is a nice easy one.

My camera was dying when i was taking the photos, so i haven't got a close up one at the moment.  Anyway, the card blank is from Craftwork crafts.  The image is from Stichy Bear Designs.  The paper, i'm not sure of as it was in my bundle with no name!  The red ribbon is from Crafty Ribbons.  The hearts are cut from a Spellbinders heart die.

I hope you like it and thank you for looking.

The Crazy Challenge ~ Weddings

This week at the Crazy Challenge we are sponsored by Digi Doodle Shop

for our Weddings challenge.

I chose to use 2 images from their store to make a scene. I have coloured with promarkers, pencils and chalk. The paper is from Piece of Cake collection.

The heart is chipboard that i coloured with promarkers and then glittered.

The flowers are some i won in some candy a while ago. They too were attacked with the glitter glue! The little red buttons were sent to me by a friend and the wedding ribbon was in my stash.

The sentiment says 'Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies.' Which is a quote made by Aristotie, that i found on the internet.

I hope you like it and thank you for looking.

Valentine Tilda

I love this image of Tilda!  I coloured her with promarkers and added glossy accents to her little hearts. Although you can't really see it there is some lace in both corners.  The Red backing paper is actually a christmas paper!
