hi all

here we are again Wednesday so its 

Visible Image 

i decided to use the fab new character

Harley Jester set

isn't he a fab happy guy!

i decided to do him in the colours of my old gymnastics club ( i was a coach , in case you wondered lol)

so the base is a really dark blue 6 x 6 card, onto this a added a matt that i made using a white piece of card, onto this i stamped the Grunge Check Background and embossed with clear powder, then i used Dusty Concord and Spiced Mustard distress inks, sponged over and blended into each other.

then i cut the frame on my craft robo, and stamped the heart , diamond , spade and club.

also sponging ink on the edges, then i stamped the let me entertain you on 2 small tickets, and finished off with some bells, i think its quite a fun card.

Visible Image will be on Create & Craft on the 22nd at 10 am and 4pm launching some amazing new set so make sure you don't miss them.

new challenge at Delicious Doodles

HI..~waves~

the new Delicious doodles challenge starts today and the theme is 

Love ( good or bad)

time to have fun with this theme don't you think

OK here's mine

not sure if this would be good or bad? slightly creepy maybe that shes holding onto his skull because her love hasn't died even though he has LOL

i adore this image , not sure i have done her justice with my colouring but I'm still practising lots so maybe ill improve soon ,hehehe

anyway her name is Deadly Nightshade.you can get her here

i took the colours of the nightshade flower and went from there, other than the colouring this is a real easy card to make, i simple took a 6 x 6 purple card base, matt a lovely purple pattern paper, that i added the text to in my Craft Studio, a ribbon and a silver fancy corner, then after colouring i mounted the image on matching purple card and added to the card.

so what you going to do , good love? bad love? cant wait to see

Glitter n Sparkle challenge

hi guys, me again

the theme this week is Buttons.

i had this fab image

Buccaneer Bonny from the Stamping Chef

isn't she cute, i used a paper from My craft studio matted onto black, i changed the colour to red and added the flourishes in the graphics program, i coloured her with Spectrum noir pens, and then fussy cut her out, i went on line and found a picture of Davey Jones locker , then i printed out lots of button in gold and silver, covered then in glossy accents, and once dry cut out and poked the holes in them, i filled the chest and scattered them around a bit then added pearls and gems , a nice little haul of pirate treasure.

hope you like it.

That Craft place feb challenge

Hey Everyone time for a new challenge at 

That Craft Place

the theme is 

LOVE

I have used one of the fabulous Ditzie Design digis, 

her name is Li Valentine, i think shes adorable

i have used some purple rose paper and layered it onto card and cut it into a heart shape, i then found a lovely sentiment and printed it out and cut this into a heart shape too, i edged both with a really nice lace, and layered the smaller one onto the main one over to one side, over the other side i added some gem swirls , a heart gem stem and some roses, i added 2 roses to the smaller heart too, once i had coloured Li Valentine with my Spectrum's, i fussy cut her out and added her on sticky pads so this wall hanging has lots of depth. to finish i added some ribbon to hang it with .

hope you come play along

Visible Image Feb challenge

Oh my Days!! (as my daughter would say)

Can you believe its Feb already, can only mean one thing a new month a new challenge at 

Visible Image

OK and who can guess the theme? its tough one being Feb and all lol

yeah its LOVE...

now i have a confession to make here, i was busy working on my piece having fun stamping and gluing and almost done i think oh Buggering hell ! i had completely forgot the theme lol, but the lovely Helen said well its a love of sewing!! saved :D

and here it is...

this is the top,

and a side view

the side view is a better colour, for some reason i cant get the top pic in the right light but you get the idea .

i used just a plain paper mache box, measuring 6 x 3 1/2 ''

first i covered it in some paper i printed from my craft studio using Deco Mache, then i went on to the stamping, using one of my fave sets The Sewing Room its such a wonderful feminine set and i always want to dress up the body form lol but i refrained this time and dressed up the box instead ....using tulle and lace and a beautiful ribbon rose trim,

 I have used the body form, buttons and 

thread bobbins plus the be Unique sentiment from the set but you still have so many stamps in the set to work with you could go on and on with them.

so what is it you Love? make a project  be it a card a tag or an altered piece and show us the love xx
