I printed the image which is called Simple Santa onto Super smooth card and coloured the image with Promarkers. I die cut the image using a Lawn Fawn stitiched circle die and attached it to the middle of the card. I used the same die to get the correct shape – arrange the letters from an Alphabet stamp setcalled Harolds Abc into an arc on a stamp block and stamp onto the image panel using Memento Ink. I added some Amercian Crafts Ribbon and then added the greeting from Craftworks cards onto a punched circle. I used diamond stickles to add some sparkle to the snowman and finally added a Holly leaf embellishment from Hobbycraft.

The background paper with gold flags is from American Crafts which I mounted onto Green satin base card. I made a panel using paper from My Minds eye called Fancy That.

I added some gems onto the image and the greeting. I also added some stickles to the feathers and dress to make them shimmer. The final touch was to colour a Wycinaka banner black and add the sparkles. I think it all goes well with the regal image.

Stacey & Barrys Wedding.

I have been sorting through my photos and found this card that I forgot to show you. I made this for my Friend Stacey who had a beautiful wedding in Sandbanks, Poole which we had the pleasure of attending.
Stacey and I have been friends for years and her new hubby Barry is just lovely! Stacey loves pink so I was certain the wedding would have a pink theme and made them this card (There wasn't actually any pink to be seen  - it was a lovely cream and neutral colour scheme.)
The image is from Stamping Bella and is called Uptown Couple Brett & Brenda get married and it is my "go to " image for weddings.

 

To make this card I covered the base card in a paper I have had for ages from KI Memories Soul Mates. I stamped the image and then trimmed the panel down to cut around her leg and dress. I added some lovely lace to the side and tied some thin pink sparkly twine around the edge. I spelt out the names using gold letters I got from Hobbycraft and added some diamond stickles to her dress for extra sparkle. I used Doodlebug numbers to add the wedding date and used gems to add detail.

I used these promarkers and flexmarkers to colour the image -
Skin - Antique White, Blush, Soft Peach, Coral & Spice.
Dress - Pink Mittens, Baby Pink, Cocktail & Magenta
Hair - Vanilla, Buttercup, Pineapple crush & sleigh bells.
Bouquet - Pear green & Moss green
Suit - Warm greys
His Hair - Caramel, Raw Sienna, Chestnut & Warm grey.

I'm really pleased with how this turned out and it is just perfect for Stacey!
Thanks for stopping by and reading my post -

Banksy Claus

Morning all -

Today's card is using Banksy Claus from Dr Digi. This is such a fab image for those tricky teenagers. I've stuck with simple red here but the beauty of digital it can be in any colour!!

I have used paper from Studio Calico paper for the background as it reminded me of more graffitti. The brick pattern paper is from Simple Stories collection called I AM. I mounted this on black card and then added black house boarder.
I used glaze and whilst this was still sticky I added Cosmic Shimmer to make it look wet. I also used Diamond stickles on Santa's fur to give it a sparkle.

I used Red, Poppy and Cardinal red to colour the santa suit and Warm Greys 2 to 5 for his boots and gloves. I also used silver pen for the cannister.

Anyways I better get back to it... lots more cards to make yet before I'm done. Although I have got most of my Christmas shopping done after a mammoth session in Chester this week!! And if anyone is struggling to think of what to get me for Christmas - I'd love a Bansky...

Have a lovely day,
Liz (:(|)x

Simple Santa on a Simple Sunday.

Hello - The theme for today is Simple... I have a little bit of a headache after being at a friends 40th Birthday party last night so everything I do today needs to be very simple and will be done very slowly!!!

The card I have made to show you today is using DR Digi image called Simple Santa. And I have kept the design very Clean and Simple too and even used a background paper and greeting from Simple Stories!! (It's like it did it on purpose!!) The range is called Claus & Co and it has lovely sparkle foiled elements - I really love it.

I used a friskars punch to make the boarded in red mirri card and mounted the greeting panel in the same. The Ribbon is from Hobbycraft. Other than that the card is very SIMPLE and with these lovely crisp images - I don't think they need much else. Oooo apart from a bit of diamond stickles on his fur trim!!

I used these promarkers and flexmarkers to colour the image -
Skin - Usual
Clothes - Red, Poppy, Ruby, Cardinal Red & Burgundy.
Sack - Pear green & Lime Zest with a Emerald & Grass green panel.
Boots and gloves - Cools greys
Used a little cool grey and powder blue to shade the beard also.

Sparkly Flamingo

OOPS I'm a bit late with this post... sorry and don't tell the bosses over at I love Promarkers!! Where the new challenge has gone live. The theme is No Patterened papers which I don't mind admitting was really hard for me! Thats really my thing - I have always wanted to create my own backgrounds with inks and stencils etc but just never seen to find the time. Plus I have such a huge stash of paper - 12x12 and 6x6 (But hush... Don't tell the other half I admitted that as I always NEED more!!)

So the challenge is sponsored by Digital Delights  and I have used an image called Festive flamingo. Which just has to be pink!! 

I wish I could remember where the background die cut was from but I really can't and it doesn't say on it!! I coloured the bulbs and added some silver to make them shine. I glued this onto the sparkly Doodlebug glitter card and at the bottom some silver mirri to look like ice or a frozen lake. I mounted all this onto black card and then attached the fairy lights embellishment banner from Hobbycraft. I used the greeting from Kaiser craft and added some diamond stickles.

I used these promarkers and flexmarkers to colour the image - 

Hat - Poppy, Burgundy & Cardinal

Skates - Cool grey 3,4,& 5 -with black.

Beak - Canary & gold

Wing - Magenta & Mulberry

Bird - Rose Peach & Carmine

All Dressed Up Christmas Tree Fairy

Afternoon  - Have you seen the gorgeous new releases at All Dressed up? I have used an image called Christmas Tree Fairy but you can get all the new releases and any other image here -} All Dressed up Etsy.  And for lots of inspiration visit the Challenge Blog.

The paper I have teamed up with our fairy is quite bold but I love the bright contrast of it with the white. Its from Tilda Christmas flowers collection. I die cut the image using Lawn Fawn stitched rectangle and mounted it onto gold mirri. Behind it I glued some shimmer ribbon and a die cut tree boarder from Lawn fawn using a lovely green satin card.
I used a sticker from Do crafts for the greeting but this was clear and got lost on the background so I stuck it onto some shimmery Vellum and then cut around it before attaching it with 3D foam.
On the fairy I used a gold pen to make the stars sparkle and diamond stickles on her wings and finally added a few red gems from Papermania.

I used these promarkers and flexmarkers to colour the image -
Skin - Coral, Soft peach, Blush, Antique white & baby pink.
Hair - Warm grey 5, 4 & 2

Retro bathtime with Dr Digi.

Morning - Here is today's creation using Bath Time Deirdery from Dr DIGI.
and I have gone a bit retro. I went with an advacado green bath tub like we had growing up and then to match I added some flying ducks... well birds were all I had!! I reckon our Deirdery would not get rid of anything that still worked - I don't think she is a slave to fashion!

In truth I have fell out of love with modern technology today as my digital harddrive is refusing to work so I can't access any of my digital images or photos or anything and I am pretty gutted ! I hope they can be retrieved so fingers crossed but luckily I had this image and a couple of others already printed.

  The papers are all from Tilda Summer Blues collection and I cut them all to slightly different lengths. I added the resin birds which I think I got from ebay sometime ago and used silicon to give them a firm stick to the base kraft card. I tied a length of pink satin twine from Hobbycraft around the side and added the image with 3d foam to stand out a little. 

I used a gold pen on the feet and tap and added some diamond stickles to the bubbles but you can't see that very well on this photo. 

I used these promarkers and flexmarkers to colour our Deirdery - 

Skin - Antique white, blush, soft peach, coral & spice. 

Hair - Pink Mittens, Baby Pink and Pastel pink. 

Hat - Powder blue.

Duck - Lemon, Canary & sleigh bells. 

Bath, matt & pillow - fresh meadow, apple, green shoots, apple cider & moss.

Edge of matt - Prussian

Paper & pipes - Warm grey 1 & 2

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges -
Hiding in my craft room - Use scraps.
Artbymiran - ATG

I hope you like my card - hopefully I will be back with more images soon - And don't forget over at the DR Digi facebook page there are new images being released almost every wednesday,
Thanks for reading,

Evening - Todays new challenge at The Paper Shelter is to use a fancy fold. This was quite a challenge for me as I don't do these very often. I have used a twisted easel card and my image from the paper shelter is called The Best Nap ever

  

 I used Nestibilities die to cut the image frame and mounted this on to gold mirri. I used a Lawn Fawn big scripty word to die cut Big Hugs from gold mirri and also white card and I glued several of these together to form a stopper for the Easel. The patterned papers are from My Minds Eye - Miss Caroline. I used a little diamond stickles on the hat and added a little wooden elephant (Which I think was Kaisercraft?) Finally I added some Craftwork cards candy dots. 

I used these promarkers and flexmarkers to colour the image - 

Skin - Antique white, soft peach, blush, coral, spice. 

Hair - Tawny Owl, Grey Squirrel, Morning Mist. 

Primrose, Buttercup & Pineapple Crush. Sea Mist & Honeydew

Elephant - Soft Mauve, Heather, orchid & Spring Lilac. Warm Grey 1 & 2 toes & Cerise & Baby pink ears.

Phyllis the Festive Fairy.

Hello -  Todays post for Dr digi is using an image called Phyllis the festive fairy. I had every intention of making a christmas card but got carried away with all the pink and gold! But how versitile - shows how these images can be used for so many different occasions.

And I am definatly beginning to understand the concept of leaving white space on an image rather than swamping it full of colour!!

 

The paper is from My Minds Eye - My story collection and I love the gold foiling. I die cut some gold stars using a new star boarder die from Sunny Studio. I also die cut a big star using Nestibilities dies from EK Success Pixie dust vellum and I edged this with gold peel offs! The Greeting is also peel offs. Finally I used some diamond stickles on Phyllis' wings and some gold pen on her wand. 

I used these promarkers and flexmarkers - 

Skin - Antique white, blush, soft peach, coral & Spice. 

Hair - Warm greys 1, 2 & 3

Dress - Pink mittens, Baby pink & Carmine

Wings - Powder blue and cloud blue. 

I hope you like Phyllis  - she would like to enter these challenges - 

Ikes World - Things with wings

Inky Chicks - Fairies or wings

Lemon Shortbread - ATG

All for now,

Sundae Sue

There are matching papers and a separate Sundae glass too which I have used to create a little gift tag. I can just picture her in a Diner with her can of squirty cream being all flirty with the customers!! You can find all the new releases HERE at the Dr Digi shop

 I have used the matching papers in pink and mounted them on black card. I stuck a little scrap black spotty paper in the bottom corner as a floor for Susie to stand on. I added a little pink spotty ribbon and punched a circle from gold card that I attached the Craftwork Cards greeting to. I then added SWEET in big gold American Craft Thickers. I have also used a little diamond stickles on both the card and the tag. To the tag I also added a button where the cherry is and attached some twine to the button.

 I used these promarkers and flexmarkers -
