Polka Doodles #33 Tags

I've been itching to use this image from Mo's, for ages...... lol.  So decided to use it for the present challenge over on Polka Doodles who's theme is 'Tags'.

The image is called 'Sugar Plum Fairy' and I love her.  She coloured with the usual ProMarkers and glittered up with Chameleon glitter from Debbie Moore Designs.  The BP's are from Pink Petticoat, the stamped sentiment on the tag is from Creative Expressions.

DDSC #122 - Use Pearls

It's time for a new challenge over on Digi Doodle Shop Challenges and this week it's my teams turn to play host.  For this challenges we'd like to see you use 'Pearls' on your entries.  As usual we have a prize of a $10 gift certificate for the lucky winner to spend in our online shop Digi Doodle Shop.

Here's my DT card.



I just love this image, but then I love all the flower images from DDS.  This image is called Violets in Wagon which you can buy and download HERE.  I used ProMarkers to colour the image and parts of it are 3d. The flowers are hand made by me and I used a MS punch for the border, I think the papers are from DCWV, but will check that out.  For some reason blogger insists on turning round the bottom picture, it should be sideways!

DT Call at Creative Expressions

There's a DT call at the moment over at Creative Expressions and this is my card for their DT Call Challenge.

The image is a stamp by Lili of the Valley, coloured with ProMarkers, the BP is from a Christmas stack by DCWV, I bought a couple of years ago in Florida.  I embossed the bottom panel and cut the borger with a MS punch.  I used a Spellbinders die to make the frame, and also embossed that too.  The snowflakes were punched and glittered using chameleon glitter from Debbi Moore Designs.  The sentiment is a digi from Cuddly Buddly.

Lili's Little Fairies

I came across a paper pack today, that I've had for ages and never used, so thought I'd make a card with it. This card fits the present challenge over on Lili's Little Fairies, which is 'Monochrome'.  The stamp I used is called PomPoms.
I just love these colours, they're so pretty.  The paper is from Pampered Pets by Andrea Jayne.  The image is coloured with ProMarkers and FlexMarkers, I also coloured the ribbon and flowers with ProMarkers.  I made the flowers and the bead pins myself and used dies from Cheery Lynn for the border and corner.  The pearls are form Mei Flower and the glitter from Debbi Moore Designs.

This weeks challenge over on I ♥ ProMarkers has just started and the theme for this one is 'Vintage'. Our sponsor is Me with a prize of some of my own bead pins.


Here's  my DT card.
I went with Christmas for this one, and used a digi image from the new Christmas CD by Debbi Moore, Shabby Chic Christmas.  I 3D'd the baubles, used distress ink to colour the script a little, and distressed the paper edges.  The BP is from a Christmas stack by DCWV, the bead pin is one I made too.

Winter Wonderland - Ribbons & Lace

A new challenge has just started over on Winter Wonderland, our theme for this one is 'Ribbon & Lace' and our sponsor is Crafters Companion with a prize of a £10 gift voucher to spend in their online store, you'll be spoilt for choice!

Here's my DT card.

 I decided on a change for this one, not the usual coloured image.  I used a Memory Box snowflake die, cut out a few times.  I also cut one out and cut it up for the corners.  I used a Cuttlebug folder to create the embossed panel, the ribbon and lace are from my stash and the sentiment is computer generated.
A closer look at the snowflake.  The glitter is, as usual, chameleon glitter from Debbi Moore Designs.
