My DT card for Forever Friends challenge 39 - June 25th

 

Here is my DT card for our new challenge over at Forever Friends
Our challenge this fortnight is "USA inspired"- we can't wait to see your interpretations of this.
We are sponsored by Whimsy Stamps for this challenge

 

I decided to use the colours of the USA flag. I made a step card using Go Kreate XXL dies, adding the cupcake paper before cutting and scoring to make the step shape.

I have used a freebie digi by GTC called cherry cupcake on the right hand side, I coloured with the following Promarkers and Copics, Berry Red, E27 and B66, adding irridescent glitter to the icing. 

I have printed off a freebie birthday digi ticket from the lovely Gerda over at Stamp Fairy although I did recolour it first from black to blue in PSE and punched a little hole in so I could thread some eskimo wool through. I have also used white and blue Card Candi from Craftwork Cards at the bottom.

My DT card for challenge 119 over at OSAAT


Its challenge time again over at OSAAT


Our challenge theme this week is"Summer Dresses" so flowers, fabrics, colours - you get the idea. 
We are very lucky to be sponsored by Joanna Sheen

with a £10 gift voucher as the prize!

I have made my DT card by using a Go Kreate die called Frilly square frames #10 and stuck some pretty patterned paper from an 8 x 8 DCWV Pocket full of posies paper pad on to it before cutting and scoring to make a side stepper card. I also used some green patterned paper behind the image which was from the same paper pad.

The gorgeous image is called Punk Girl by Barbara Jenson, its available HERE in Stitchy's store. I have used the following Copic pens to colour, E000, B000, G000, R000 and E35 and paper pieced the pretty summery dress.

The sentiment is a Lili of the valley stamp which  I mat and layered onto some matching orange paper and then onto green paper before sticking to the card.
I have used a Cheery Lynn branch die for the leaves, some Prima flowers and a piece of spotty orange card candi in the centre of the flower.

I've been sunning myself in Antigua


Sorry I have not been in blogland recently, I have been sunning myself in Antigua with my wonderful hubby Baz, we had the best time ever and would certainly recommend to all!  We swam with stingrays which was amazing, we even got to cuddle them, even though they are all in the wild. Stingray City is a must do experience if you ever get a chance to go.

I should now be able to get back on track and get around to visiting all your blogs and catching up with all my DT work and with what you have all been up to whilst I have been away and will get commenting!

My DT card for Pennys Ice Cream Theme challenge

This is my DT creation for our Ice Cream challenge over at Pennys Challenges  this fortnight. The image I have used is by The Poodles Digi Doodles, one of our sponsors this week. I have used the following Copics to colour, E000, E31, E34, E41, Y00, G40, B41, C3, C5 and R89. I used Spellbinders Labels 22 nesties to cut the image.

I created the backing paper from a freebie ice cream digi stamp I downloaded ages ago from Janes Doodles. I loaded it into digital designer and created the background paper and then I just added colour to the ice cream cones.

I have also added some card candi from Craftwork Cards and a sentiment circle which says You're Cool with an ice cream in the centre which was a freebie from Birds Cards.

Hop on over to see what the talented DT have come up with for your inspiration HERE and to enter our challenge. We are sponsored for this challenge by

My DT card for challenge 118 over at OSAAT

 Here is my DT card for our challenge over at One stitch at a time
Our theme this week is Stitch It (Real or Faux). 

We are sponsored by 
With this months Collab as the prize

The image I have used is called Vase of Roses and is by Delicious Doodles,  its available HERE in the Stitchy Store. I have used the following Copic pens to colour G0000. RV00 and RV10.

I have used a blank shaped card from Craftwork Cards, my Go Kreate dies, some gingham paper from Joanna Sheen and a Marvey Le Plume pen (Bubble gum pink no 67) to add some faux stitching around the image.

I did think about adding flowers, a sentiment, ribbon, bows and card candi but it just didn't look right with any of it so I decided to leave it just clean and simple.
