Sketch it out

 Hi guys,

This is the reminder post for our current challenge at Creative Moments, with extra prizes to win this month. Our optional theme is to use the following sketch:

Here is my creation using this sketch:


I coloured the image (Owl Fun by Hetty Claire) with Chameleon pens and then cut into a tag shape before punching a hole in the top. I threaded some ribbon through this hole and then layered onto a watercolour backing paper. This matt was layered onto a green card base. I then added two die-cut balloons and a foiled sentiment topper from Hunkydory.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:
SimplyLessisMoore #492 C for Celebrate (not sure if this is CAS enough due to the watercolour backing paper?)
Sweetstampin' - Tags
Audsentiments #305 Tag it
dragonflydreams - happy birthday

Cute in Pink

 Hi guys,

Our new challenge started on Wednesday over at I Love Promarkers. Sorry I am late posting, it has been fairly hectic. Our optional twist is to add a bow, and I think the bows work really well with my chosen image.


The image is from a new sponsor (and one of the Design Team Members) CFL digi designs.

I could this super cute little dragon using the following Promarkers:
Tulip Yellow and Canary; amethyst, baby pink and cerise; metallic green.

I then used my box of scraps and the following sketch from Cheerful Sketches to create my card. To finish I added the two bows.

Jasmine beauty

 Hi guys,

Our new challenge started over at Creative Moments today, and our option is to follow the sketch below. Due to such a low number of entries last time I made my first DT card as anything goes - my second will be following the sketch - but I wanted to show people that Anything Goes is still acceptable if you do not get along with the optional theme.


I coloured my image using my Chameleon marker pens. The sentiment was created on the computer before printing the image. To finish I simply added a washi tape banner.

Here is the optional sketch for the challenge blog - do pop over to see how the DT have used the sketch in their creations.

Going somewhere?

 Hey guys,

Our new challenge started over at I Love Promarkers yesterday, with the optional theme of transport. The DT have come up with some great ideas, and here is my creation.


The image is from Dr Digi and is called Beryl the Biker. I coloured her using Promarkers (Midnight Blue, Cobalt Blue Blue Pearl, Powder Blue, April Shower, Twilight Sky, Moss, Cinnamon, Bright Orange, Pastel Yellow, Cool Grey 4, Cool Grey 2, Warm Grey 1, Icicle, Metallic Red/Gold) and then fussy cut the image. I used some fancy backing papers on a pale blue base card and layered her into the background. Finally I hand wrote the sentiment using a purple metallic pen.

Christmas has come early

 Our new challenge started on Friday over at MAWTT, with the theme of Early Christmas.


I used a topper on a blue card base. I then cut the snowflake circle onto lilac paper with foiled snowflakes. This very simple card just layered the die-cut around the topper in the centre of the card.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

ABCChristmas - Q for Quick

AYLI - Fav animals - one of my favourite animals is a bird, and especially at Christmas I think they remind us that summer is just round the corner :)
