Peek a boo...

Good morning Sunday bloggers and my first post of the New Year...thought I would get this posted now as I have a busy day ahead of me. I need to make some soup, then I need to do the Facebook post and then I am helping my friend deliver some leaflets...which will be for about 3 hours...I am thinking of the brisk walking so some exercise in there.

So last night I doodled away colouring this little cutie and finished the card off this morning...it's a bit different and I think I like it although I'm not sure about the pink...

The papers are my new Basic Grey - Little Black Dress (although they are brown), the rolled flower has been cut with a MFT die-namics die and the leafy one is a magnolia die.  The image is Peek a Boo birthday from Sugar Nellie which as been coloured with copics and then glittered....hope you like.

Back to work tomorrow....

Happy Sunday everybody...well I did intend to get more cards made this week whilst I have been on holiday but you know how it is when the schools are off....Holly had me traipsing all over and spending money. although she got bored and fed up once she had eveything she wanted!! Went shopping to Glasgow one day too....I thought it was bad enough shopping with Holly but my mother and Holly on the same day...love them both dearly but omg!! Holly likes to go to Primark, Repbulic, New Look and then you go to the other extreme...the Edinburgh Woollen Mill, which confused Holly as we were in Glasgow. What did I buy....roasting bags from Lakeland, that was me so I think a little bit of internet shopping may be in order later today.

So for my card I have followed the sketch over at A Gem of a challenge although I have tilted it round, I have used papers from Fancy Pants - Summers End, I have layered each of the papers onto bazill card and distressed the edges, the stamp is from Lili of the Valley which I have coloured with copics. I have cut out some felt flowers with my MFT flower trio die which has to be my most favourite die but then you may know that!! I added a ribbon and a bigger bow than I would normally use but I think it looks ok.

I hope to be back shortly with another creation.

It's orange...

Good morning my fellow bloggers....now the storms have calmed down, it's now white outside!! I will be glad when this winter is over, perhaps that means we will have a good summer... Well I have been doodling away colouring with my new polychromos, and I think they do take a bit of practising. I haven't quite mastered the blending to get the same effect you get with copics or promarkers but I am not giving up as I really like them!

So, I have used Peek a Boo birthday from Sugar Nellie and coloured her with my new polychromos as I said, the papers are scraps that I have left from Echo Park - Country Drive, I must order more as I really like these papers. I also added some stitching and distressed the edges of the layers to cove up my wonky cutting...think I pulled that one off!!

Will be back shortly with Pippi!!
