Rosetta - Sylvia Zet - Wee Stamps

Good morning everyone I finally managed to get another card finished. This has been a drag of a week for me I changed my diabetic medication last week (next step the dreaded needle) and I'm really having lots of up's and down's. Sorry I haven't been round to visit, but will be catching up today.

When I saw the new releases from Sylvia Zet I had to have them and so enjoyed colouring this one up. She's 'Rosetta', another of Sylvia's gorgeous faries.

She is cut using SB Grand Decorative Circles one, layered onto a Grand Circle. The LOTV sentiment is mounted onto a Stately Circle and the large butterfly is also a SB. The small one is a Joy Crafts. Flowers, lace, ribbon and pearl string from WOC. Leaves are a MS punch and DP from Nitwits. Everything mounted onto Bazzill basics.

She is of course coloured with Promarkers and Flexmarkers, and I added some liquid pearls to the flower stamens. I also added stickles to her wings and distress ink to the edges.

My Frantage embossing powder finally arrived and I added it to the leaves, flowers and butterflies............ love it and can see it being used lots more. I also got to use my Letrajet air brush again as I didn't have the right colour blue rose so inked up  white ones.

The inside does reflect the front.

Thick as Thieves - Sassy Cheryl - PFP DT

Good morning everyone. Hope you have had a good week. Mine was supposed to be a crafting one but ended up being spring cleaning.  I don't know about you but the thing I hate to do most in the world is ironing !!!!  I hate it so much that it gets to the stage where I only iron what I need, that means a lot of ironing builds up (4 sets of bedding for starters)... but I can now say that everything in my house has been washed IRONED and put away. I always feel quite chuffed when I clear it, don't know why I let it build up.  So that's part of why I have been MIA.

On to today's card which is totally different for me. My attempt at CAS. How I had to sit on my hands not to add corners, flowers and pearls to it. :) It's also a different shape, a change from a square, and I used my new toy for the background.  I have searched for months for a Promarker Airbrush and finally found one, so this is my first attempt at airbrushing too. This card is for PFP challenge for which the theme of Animals was chosen by Nat.

She is mounted onto a SB Timeless Rectangle, cut from Bazzil basics.  The dp is from Nitwits and ribbon from my stash

She is of course coloured with Promarkers, Flexmarkers and Prisma pencisl. I also added Glossy accents to the dogs nose, and for once it does show on the photo.

The inside does reflect the front.

Today's card is for the new challenge at The Paper Shelter where our challenge this week is 'Make it Bloom', and what better image to use than 'The Florist'.

She is cut with a SB square with a faux nestie behind her. The doily is a CL Sophia's Heart. Flowers from WOC. Pearls, corners, ribbon, butterfly and backing paper from my stash. The leaves are also from SB.

She is of course coloured with Promarkers, Flexmarkers and Prisma pencils, with a little distress ink around the edges.

The inside reflects the front.

Good afternoon everyone, hope you're having a good weekend. This is a card I have been meaning to post all week and finally have time today.

I have used a Sugar Nellie image 'Angelica' I think she is just so cute.

A different colour choice for me but I think she suits it.  She is cut using SB labels 23 with a faux nestie behind her. The DP is First Edition 'Summer Breeze' and I used Bazill basics for the layers. Flowers from WOC and lace pearls and ribbon from my stash. The leaves are my fav MS punch.

She is of course coloured with Promarkers, Flexmarkers and Prisma Pencils. I added a little distress ink and some stickles to the butterflies and hairband.

The inside does reflect the front.

Steampunk Owl - Pink Gem Designs

Good morning everyone, something completely different from me today, my attempt at Steampunk !!!!!

Not my style at all but when I saw this cute image from Pink Gem Designs I decided to have a try. This is for the latest challenge over at Passion for Promarkers where this weeks theme chosen by Jen is 'Cut it Out'.

As the challenge says I cut him out. I created my backing sheet using a cogs mask and blue mica powder spritzed onto black. I added various cogs from SB sprightly sprockets an added a couple of charms. I distressed the cogs a little and added more promarker to some of them. The sentiment is computer generated and I also added a few coloured card Kandy.

 He is of course coloured with Promarkers, Flexmarkers and a little Prisma Pencil. I also added glossy accents to his eyes.

The glossy accents and distressing show a little more on this one.

We are sponsored this week by 'Pink Gem Designs' who are offering 4 images of the winners choice from their shop

  Don’t forget you must use your Letrasetproducts (i.e. promarkers, flex markers, aqua markers, tria markers, metallic markers or neon markers) and of course follow the theme.  I hope you will pop over and see the fab cards the other DT members have made this week

Picnic Time - Sarah Kay

Good afternoon everyone back with a card I did for fun. I was sorting out my stamps, they were all crowded into one box and I could never find what I wanted, and I came across a few that I have never used. I can't believe I didn't use this one as I must have had her for nearly a year. She is the gorgeously cute 'Picnic Time' from Sara Kay.

I have kept her fairly simple (well it is for me) Cut with SB grand oval and set onto an Opulent oval with a rickrack border behind her. I added 2 MB corners and cut the WRS sentiment with a scalloped circle. Pearls and charm from Mei Craft. Paper from Nitwits and ribbon and buttons from my stash. (The buttons were recycled from an old blouse).

She is of course coloured with Promarkers, Flexmarkers and a little Prisma Pencil.

I used the same paper on the inside and added another MB corner.
