An oldie but still good

This is another image I coloured a while back, and in fact I actually checked, it was way back in April last year. It's a good thing I have some images coloured, cause at least now I get to make some cards, I'm not getting any colouring done though :-( Soon I hope, really soon. I think my pencils have dried up, lol!

This image was another that Debbi sent me, and I have so many other gorgeous ones, so I really should be spending a lot of time colouring. It's not like I don't have time, I'm not working at the moment. If you want to see some gorgeous colouring and some gorgeous cards, do go check Debbi's blog! She was one of the very first ladies who inspired me when I started blogging, and she's super talented.

I coloured the image with my prismacolor pencils and blended it with sansador (gamsol), then cut it out with an oval nestie. The sentiment is from Ladybug Crafts Ink, Kerry was so kind to send me a whole lot of her sentiments and I finally used one! I love sentiments, never know where to put them though.

I thought I'd throw in a picture of little Lady Ayla Belle. She is just the cutest thing, and so clever. She and Jingle (my other cat) have made friends, and she loves him, but boy does he play rough with her. All she does is run and hide when he starts playing, poor little thing. She is so dainty and gentle.

That's my post for today, pretty short and sweet. We have had a few sunny days, but still plenty of rain. So I am still complaining about the weather, well at least it's not snow, woohoo.

Take care

Lady at leisure, just like me

I have finally made a card. I know it's been ages, but I'm still alive, just been very busy. I can hardly remember how to use google blogger, lol.

This image, Martini Nikki, from Ladbybug Crafts Ink, is exactly what my life is like at the moment. I am on 3 months garden leave. Although I am exceptionally busy, I am totally enjoying it.

I coloured the image with my prismacolor pencils, cut it out with a nestie circle. The flowers were done with the MFT die-namics die! Love that.  I know it can be done by hand too, but the die makes it SOOOO much easier for stupid people like me. Woohoo.

Okay so even after I have been away for this long, I got to get going. I don't want to go on and on, who has time to read a loooong post. I start my next photography course tomorrow, looking forward to that.

take care

Sold!

It's been a while since I've posted, but I've been a bit busy and haven't had a moment free. We had our department farewell, which was fabulous, I've attached some pictures below. But first about my card.

This is one of the super cute images from Ladybug Crafts Ink, and it's called Buttercup In the Doghouse. I made it with a new home in mind, thought it would be perfect with the sold sign, lol. I struggled to get a decent photo though, clearly my photography course is not helping. Kerry rescued it for me with photoshop, but in real life this card is SO cute.

As usual I coloured the image with my prisma pencils and blended it with sansador, then cut it out with a square nestie die. I hand-wrote the 'sold', which was luckily just one word, I would not be brave enough to write much more than that. Unlike Paula who does the most beautiful hand written sentiments.

On to our farewell. This is the main entrace to the lodge, it is really pretty.

This was the Cheetah run. You cannot image how fast these animals are if you have not seen it yourself.

Here I am with Tarzan the Cheetah and then of course Bumblebee the python, she was adorable.


Now I am done and hope you all have a great week. I am looking forward to having a realiable internet connection again one day. The way I have to work at the moment, losing my connection every 5 minutes is driving me insane. I want to visit my favourite blogs and leave you all some comments, but it's not possible at the moment :-(

Take care.

Who stole the cheese

Look what I have to share today, a brand new image from none other than Ladybug Crafts Ink. This is my first card that I've made for Kerry, and I sure hope she likes it.

I think this image is just so cute, look at that big eye peeping at the poor little mouse going by. This is Tiptoeing Lily and she sure looks pretty confident walking past Magnum, then again he doesn't look like he needs food, lol!

I coloured the image with my prismacolor pencils, blended with sansador (gamsol), and then cut it out with an oval nestie. The paper is from October Afternoon, the fence is a Martha Stewart border punch and the sentiment is from Elzybells.

Now, I tried something different with my picture. I tried Jeanie's super clever way of taking her pictures with a pretty background instead of the usual dull one I have. I could not however decide which one I liked better, isn't that typical, lol! So please let me know what you think!

That's that for today! Hope you have a great Monday.
