Time for a new challenge over on I ♥ ProMarkers where the theme is 'Simply Does It'.  We have 2 sponsors this week, which means 2 lucky winners!  J & C Creations have a £10 voucher for the 1st winner and HobbyBook whose prize is a choice of 5 digi images for the 2nd winner.

Here's my DT card.


This image is called Dandelion Girl and is a digi image from Wee Stamps.  The BP is from Nitwits, I used a border punch from EK Success for the card edge.
I don't think I over embellish my cards, but it's so hard not to keep adding more when we're not supposed to.... lol.

Stepping Out

Time for me to show you a card featuring a digi image from Just Inklined.
I choose this image because I thought it would be a bit of a challenge for me, as I always tend to go with flowers or cute.  I really enjoyed colouring this image.

I used Distress Inks to colour the image, the BP's are from a Debbi Moore CD and I used a Cheery Lynn die to cut the lace border.


The usual closer look at the image.

Winter Wonderland - Picture Inspiration

For this weeks challenge over on Winter Wonderland we have a photo for you to take inspiration from in creating a card.  This weeks sponsor is Crafters Companion who are offering a £10 voucher to the lucky winner.

Here's the inspirational photo.


And here's my DT card.


I took inspiration from the Poinsettias for my card which were cut with a Spellbinders die, the holly leaves were cut with a Cheery Lynn die as was the sentiment.  The embossing was done using a Spellbinders A4 embossing folder.

La Pashe


This is a stamp is called Hand Tied Calla Lilies and is available from La Pashe.  I stamped the image with Tea Dye Distress Ink, then used a damp paint brush to create a soft washed look.  I used a die by Spellbinders to cut the image.
I didn't add much to this card, because I didn't want to detract  from the lovely image.  I think this stamp can be used for lots of occassions, so it's a good one to add to your stash!


A closer look at the image, aren't Distress Inks just fab to work with, I love them!
