Meet Kaye

Hello everyone, gosh it feels like I haven't posted for ages!  I have been busy at work and getting ready for the Crafty Sentiments New Release preview days which start on Wednesday but just had time to squeeze this little darling in.  This is Kaye and she is the new digital image from Crafty Sentiments Designs and is available in the store, isn't she a little sweetheart.  I have coloured her with copics and the  papers are MME On The Bright Side - One.  I decided to distress the edges to fit in with the peeling paint paper, the border die is I think a Nellie Snellen, sentiment stamp was a freebie with a crafting mag and the flowers are from my stash.

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

Crafty Sentiments - Digi Release Friday

Yep its Friday so its time to see what wonderful new digi releases there are over at Crafty Sentiments Designs.  There a 3 fab images this week and I have used the one of Patches sat on some books to make a bookmark.  I have coloured him using copics and then inked around him to match with the vintage feel of the  papers which are Echo Park Times & Seasons.  I have kept my bookmark simple and flat as although I love seeing all the fancy bookmarks with flowers and other raised elements I wouldn't be able to use them as a bookmark for fear of crushing them or marking the book.  As avid book readers Ria and I will certainly be able to make use of this cute little fella, even though he is quite 'boyish'  There are 2 other fabby images so be sure to check them out.

I would like to enter this into the following challenges:

Cupcake Crafts #181 ~ Boys and their Toys

MTTC #147 ~ Circle Circus

Creative Inspirations #152 ~ Anything Goes

Thanks for stopping by.

Crafty Sentiments Digi release Friday

OK so this is a few days late but I couldn't resist having a play tonight with the digi releases that became available over at Crafty Sentiments Designs, there were 3 this week and I have used 2, the windmill and bucket of Easter eggs along with Mo Mo who was a digi release a few weeks ago.  I have used my copics, sakura stardust, ink pads and glitter to add the colour to my little scene which I put together in PSE5 before printing.  The sentiment is also from Crafty Sentiments Designs and I added some sequin flowers and a tiny gem.  This was such fun, I hope you like it too.

Air Mail with Love

I'm back with my 2nd card for the Digi Release Friday at Crafty Sentiments Designs.  This little cutie is Tobey Heart Ballon and I have coloured him using copics I cut his heart ballon seperately and joined them up using sakura stardust pen.  I wanted to use another of my new paper pads and this one is MME Kraft Funday Happy Days and decided to keep my image in the same colour way apart from the heart.  Also went with distressing for this card by roughing up some edges and inking others.  The bunting is cut with the Cricut and the film strip is a sizzix extended cut I finished off with a stamp from the Papermania Portobello Road collection.
