Mojo Monday sketch challenge #116

Hello and happy Sunday to you all.  Sorry I haven’t been around very much this week but I’m still having computer problems grrrr!  It will probably have to go back to the repair shop this week so there may be sporadic posting again this week!!  Onto to my card which is for the mojo Monday sketch challenge.  I used a gorgeous new image from DigiStamp Boutique called 'coco and flowers’ and coloured it with my promarkers and I also used a sakura gelly roll pen in the centres of the flowers.  The papers are K&Co from the sparkly sweet paper pad and I cut the circles with my circle nesties.  I ran two of the circles through the cuttlebug using my swiss dots embossing folder.  The stunning ribbon is new and is from fantastic ribbons and its very sparkly IRL and the sentiment was created on the pc. 

Don’t forget you can still get 20% off all Christmas images over at DigiStamp Boutique – great for those last minute cards!

I am also entering this card for the daring cardmakers challenge, which this week is ‘polka dots’.  I will hopefully be back tomorrow with my cupcake craft challenge and stamp with fun DT cards.  Thanks for stopping by today.

Mojo sketch challenge #108

I’m cutting it fine for the mojo sketch challenge this week, so I’ll have to make this post a quick one.  For my card I stamped my new TGF image ‘Ian’ and coloured him with my promarkers, adding highlights with a white gel pen.  The papers are all dovecraft from the ‘masculine’ paper pack.  The plain cs is a mixture of bazzill and from the papermill shop.  I used my new quickutz cookie cutters for the stars and the adhesive stones are PM.  The sentiment was created on the pc.  Thanks for stopping by today.  Please come back tomorrow to see my cupcake craft challenge DT card.

Anyone for Anya? #1/ABC challenge

This is my card for the new challenge Anyone for Anya? which for their first challenge is asking for ‘sugar & spice & all things nice’.  I am also entering my card for the ABC challenge, which is ‘c for circles’.  I stamped the greeting farm image ‘dahlia‘ and coloured her with my promarkers.  The papers are all MME from the bloom & grow paper pad (lush) and the sentiment was created on the pc.  The flowers were punched with my ek success large and medium retro flower punches and the leaves were punched with my L’em punch.  The adhesive pearls are basic grey.  The sketch is the mojo #101 so I will also be entering their challenge.  Wow 3 in 1 – haven’t done that for a while!!  I hope you all have a fantastic bank holiday weekend and the weather behaves itself.  Thanks for stopping by today. 

Mojo Monday sketch #81

Hi everyone, hope you're enjoying the sunshine (if you're lucky enough to see it), it's glorious here today. This is my entry for this week's mojo monday sketch, which was fab to use. I made this card for an order for a lady at work. I stamped the stamping bella 'cosmobella' image and coloured her with pro-markers. The dp was a free download (I think from mad about cards, not totally sure though) and the plain pink cs is from the papermill shop. The brown cs is bazzill bling. The flower and sunburst were punched out of matching cs with woodware punches and the pearl brad is PM. The ribbon is from my stash and the adhesive stones are also PM. The sentiment was created on the pc. Don't eat too many eggs (yeah right!). Thanks for stopping by.

Mojo sketch #79/CCT #53

This is a card order I made recently for my auntie to give to her grand-daughter. I decided to follow the mojo sketch (as I haven't had a chance to enter it for a little while). I used my new miss anya stamp (from Tracy at Dies to Die For) and I coloured her using my pro-markers. The dp is all gorgeous BG from the sultry paper pad and the plain cs is from the papermill shop. The lush velvet ribbon is from my stash and the sentiment was created on the pc. A really girly girl card but that's exactly what I wanted lol! This card also the fits the theme on cute card thursday this week, which is 'family affair'. Thanks for stopping by, I appreciate all your wonderful comments.

Mojo sketch #77

This is my card for this week's mojo sketch challenge and it was a really lovely easy sketch this week. I treated myself to a couple of smirk stamps this week so decided to use one of them on this card and I coloured the image with my trusty pro-markers. The dp is all SU and the plain cs is from the papermill shop. The ribbon is from my stash and the adhesive pearls are PM. The sentiment is stamping bella and I used a stampin' spot (SU) in brilliant blue. I'm not used to leaving so much white on my card so I used my pricking tool to add some interest at the top of the card (click on the pic for a closer view).

Mojo sketch #76/Crafty muse challenge

This is my card for this week's mojo sketch challenge and the crafty muse challenge which is 'mums & girlfriends'. I printed off the crafty muse 'angelique' download and coloured her with my pro-markers adding stickles to her wings. The dp is from a paper pack I've had for a long time (think it's docrafts or papermania but not 100% sure). The plain cs is from my stash. The sentiment is penny black and the white dots were done with a gel pen. The ribbon is from my stash. A fairly simple card but sometimes simple is good lol. Thanks for looking.

Papertake challenge/Mojo sketch challenge #74/Cupcake Challenge #27

The papertake challenge this week was 'a perfect match' so I made a card and altered a photoframe in matching colours - that brings me onto the cupcake challenge, which was to alter something. The sketch that I used for the card was the mojo sketch for this week. Well I say this week but I'm chasing my tail as usual and the challenges all change again tomorrow LOL! Anywhoo onto the deets of the card. I stamped my new (and gorgeous) angel anya by the greeting farm and coloured her with my pro-markers. I added highlights to her wings with a sakura stardust pen and stickles to her halo. The yummy dp is BG and the plain cs is from the papermill shop. The ribbon is from my stash and the sentiment was done on my pc. The "21" was done with stickers by creative imaginations and the pearls I only bought last week but I threw away the packet and can't remember who they are by. For the frame, sorry I forgot to take a before photo but it was plain wood colour. I sanded the frame and then coloured it with my trusty pro-markers. I punched various flowers and stuck them together using the same materials as for the card. The sentiment stamp I used is by studio g. I also added a faux stitched edge with a fine line marker pen. To be honest I'm not that happy with how the frame turned out (actually I think it's rubbish) but I wasn't going to enter the challenge and then changed my mind last minute but hey at least I had a go. Sorry for the long post. Thanks for looking.

Mojo sketch challenge #73

Here is my card for this week's mojo monday sketch challenge, which is obviously a sketch (d'oh!). I stamped the elzybells image and lightly coloured it with my pro-markers. The plain cs is from the papermill shop and with the light blue cs I stamped the PM clear stamp image in a contrasting cat's eye chalk ink pad for a subtle background (click on the pic for a closer look). The sentiment is by stamps away and the ribbon is from my stash. Around the image panel I pierced some holes with my pokey tool and added faux stitching with a white gel pen. The adhesive stones are PM. Thanks for looking.

Mojo sketch challenge #70

This is my card for this week's mojo sketch challenge. I used a forever friends image and coloured it with my pro-markers. The dp is by pebbles inc and the pink and black cs is from the papermill shop. I used a woodward large scallop circle punch and handcut the smaller circle (I need to get me some round nesties!!). I used the elzybells heart stamp from the s-moo-ches valentine clear set and used a pink brilliance ink pad. I also stamped some dots using my large SU background stamp with brilliance ink on the long pink panel. It's hard to tell in the photo but in real life the ink shimmers, it's really yummy ink. The sentiment is again an elzybells stamp that I only stamped part of. Thanks for looking.
