Christmas post at All dressed Up Stamps.

 Evening - there is a new challenge starting today over at All Dressed Up stamps. This is my latest creation using an image called Christmas Post - quite apt for this blog entry. 

Prosecco and Copic time! (ADU)

Have you seen our current challenge at All dressed up stamps? I have created with this ADU stamp from LDRS called Prosecco Time. (Now I've had this a while but.... watch this space as there may be something coming with this image... I'll say no more about that at the mo... tease!!)

I coloured the image with Copics and added some co-ordinating paper and ribbon. I added a few Doodlebug sequins and some clear gems. I kept it quite simple but really love how it turn out.

I hope you like my card and will join in at the challenge,

Cheeky cocktails

Hello !
Have you seen the New All dressed up images? Once again they are fab! They are every month!!
This time I played with an image called Fruitti Tutti. I actually picked this one as I knew I had the perfect paper to go with it!! This paper is so lovely!!
I used a chippie from Make it crafty and coloured it to match with copics. 

Thanks for stopping by,

Be My Valentine flowers

Good evening
Have you seen the amazing new release images at All Dressed Up?? They are just beautiful!! This one I coloured is called Be My Valentine. You can see all the new release images and the Design Teams inspiration here at the blog

I used Copics to colour the image and the papers are from My Favourite Things. I wrapped some twine around and tied a little bow. Finally I added a little wooden embellishment of the word "Love"

I hope you like my inspiration!!

Love All dressed Up Bunny

Hello - Time for me to share with you my latest Design team card for All Dressed Up. This time I've used a section of an image called A time to give - I edited the image and then printed just the Bunny part to colour and cut out. I knew I wanted the Bunny to be a shade of grey but I actually used B60 and then the palate developed from there. I only used 6 pens - so shows what you can do with a limited selection.
Im really pleased with how she has turned out although I tried to stamp the greeting in a pale grey but it looked a bit patchy so I ended up going over it with my black copic.

The papers are from My Favourite things and the enamel heart is from My Minds Eye and the stamped greeting is from Paper Smooches.

You can find all the other DT cards and the challenge blog details here  -} February challenge #90
I would love to see lots of All Dressed Up creations!

Warm Hands Warm Heart

Hello - 
We have just started a brand new challenge at All Dressed Up blog. I have created this card using an image called Warm Hands Warm Heart. There seems to be a lot of people going through testing times at the moment with family and health problems so this card goes to all them to send them love and hugs. It certainly puts my little strops about how long our rennovations are taking into perspective!
I might add some embellishments to this card ... when I find them! Its seems a bit empty down the bottom so Ill attach another photo if I do. 

Right - I'm off for a run before it gets too cold!

Golden Wedding Anniversary - ADU

Hello -  We have a new challenge starting today at All Dressed Up and as always its an Anything Goes theme as long as you use an ADU image.
Now I have used this image called Happy 50TH to make an Anniversary card for my Parents as it was there Golden wedding anniversary on the 8TH June. To celebrate they hired a house in the Peak District for a week and we all went along for a few nights. We did lots of walking and eating and we were really lucky as the weather was lovely the whole time so we were able to get the dogs tired out! 

I mounted the image onto Gold card and used a Sharpie to  colour the greeting. I coloured the flowers with copics and added some gold gems. I also coloured some peels off gold to add the wedding anniversary. 

This next photo shows the dimension with the Butterflies a bit better.The butterflies are from the poundshop and I added a little gold pen detail.

I hope you will all join in the new challenge and share your All Dressed Up creations.

All dressed up June New Release

Hello -
Im sorry I am late in posting these cards here on my blog as they have been live on the All Dressed Up Challenge blog since the 7th as thats the day when we first showcase the gorgeous new images.

This first new image I got to play with is Lets Fly a Kite 
and I teamed her up with a Mft Hugs die and the cloud stitched boarder die. The papers are both from Doodlebug and I coloured her with Copics, 

The second image I used was Sight seeing in Paris and I wanted it to look like a polaroid picture in a frame so I used aMFT die and used Doodlebug gold arrows to add corners. I also added some Paris skyline washi tape. I added a Eiffel tower embellishment which I coloured with gold pen and I used a greeting from Pebbles with Happy Birthday in gold.

Pop over to the challenge blog and the facebook page to see the other new images and what the amazing  DT have created with them.
