Ted and his Shed

Morning - I've been doing some colouring with my Copics and Ted and his shed from Dr Digi allowed me to have a right good play with texture and colour blends. 

I kept the card pretty simple as there is lots to see in the image so i covered the base card with garden patterned paper from Pebbles Jen Hadfield Simple life collection.
I used some wood grain kraft card to make a frame using a My favourite things stitched rectangle scalloped frame die and used 3d foam squares to attach this. I used a MFT's stamp set called Sweet Succulents to stamp a pot and coloured this with copics. I used scraps of green paper to make the leaves in the pot using a MFT fab foliage die. I added some natural twine across the top and knotted on a little spade charm.

I used promarkers for the skin as I am comfy with the blends I use and I need to practice this with teh copics but overall I love the nibs of my new pens!
For the shed I used - E31, E35, E37 & E29
Pots - E33, E08 & E11
Barrel - E29 & E37
Jumper - YR31 & YR23
Glass & sky - B000
Waistcoat - B93, B95 & B92
Roof - C01 - C07
Wellies - YG63, BG96 & G85
Leaves -  YG11 & YG23

I found lots of lovely combos to use in future and love the way this card and image turned out!
Thanks for stopping in...

Sunny Miss Weeble

There is a new challenge starting over at I Love Promarkers and the theme is Summer! Its just perfect for this heat wave we have had today (We will wait and see if it continues?!) I am defiantly a Sun Worshiper and love being outside in the warm weather. Its making the garden bloom too.

I made this card using an image from the sponsor of the challenge - Stitchy Bear and the image is called Miss Weeble. 
The Background papers are from Echo Park Splash collection as is the "SUNNY" sticker. I have also added some butterflies and a chinese lantern from K&Co Grand Adhesions. I added a few Martha Stewart glittery resin flower embellishments. I added a little gold detail from to the image from a pilot pen.

The promarkers I've used on Miss Weeble are -
Hair & Sash - Baby Pink, Carmine & Cerise.
Dress - Oasis & Turqoise.
Skin - Coral, Soft Peach, Blush & Antique White.
Umberella - Poppy & Ruby /  Summer Sun & Canary.
Handle - Cocoa & Henna. 

The theme is just perfect for this heat wave we have had today (We will wait and see if it continues?!) I am defiantly a Sun Worshiper and love being outside in the warm weather. Its making the garden bloom too. Im pleased with creations in the garden - (And I have the other half to thank for watering it regularly!!) So here's a couple of pics - I love my little shed and my veggie patches. We've had chicken salad for tea with freshly picked veg!

 

All for now from me. I'm back off out into the sun! (:(|)x
