The Pink Elephant & Pollycraft Challenges

I've used this week's sketch over at The Pink Elephant and combined it with Pollycraft's theme, which was bling. Now I know there's not an awful lot of bling on this card & the reason is I was so busy deciding on the Pollycraft image to use, finding the papers and putting the card together, I totally forgot about the "bling" factor and when I'd finished and realised my error I felt that the card wouldn't look right with loads of bling on it, so I added the little diamante heart as it fit with the theme of the card and hopefully is enough for the theme of the challenge too!

I've coloured the image in with SU! markers in Bashful Blue and Certainly Celery, to match the cardstock & also used Promarkers, the DSP's are from Summertime Designs and the sentiment is SU! from the set "Cheer & Wishes"

Stamps and Smiles & Dottie's World

Another two challenges combined but these two work so well together, I couldn't resist. Stamps & Smiles had a sketch to follow, which I've turned around & Dottie's World was to make it holey, so I cut out the circles that were on the sketch.

I've used a Charmed download "Holly in the USA" but I have to say it's not my colouring in (sadly as it's so good!) I've used a coloured image as the colours went with the papers perfectly so it made sense. The gorgeous papers are digi-papers from Summertime Designs and when I came across them I immediately thought of the Holly image as I knew they'd work well together. The paper on the inside of the card is like a patchwork quilt, so sweet and I thought it'd be fun to have it showing through. I've added some chalks to the edge of Holly, it was too white otherwise and have used an SU sentiment from my much loved & used "Circle of Friendship" inked with Ruby Red & the cardstock is also SU's Bashful Blue

Another last minute entry for 3 challenges

I've used the sketch for Sketch Saturday (which needs to be by Friday morning this week), I'm also entering it for One Stop Craft - "Let's hear it for the boys" and C.R.A.F.T which is Father's Day and a colour theme of blue & brown.

The image is a freebie I've had on my computer for ages, can't even remember where it came from now, the papers are from Summertime Designs and the brads are from my stash.

Simon Says.....Animals

Well a worm's an animal albeit a very little one! This very sweet image was a freebie from Victoria Case stamps and I was going to enter him into the VC challenge, but having coloured him in a few days ago, I merrily put the card together today and then realised I should have been following a sketch! Oops! Oh well, I can still him into Simon Says challenge.

I've coloured Willy Worm with ProMarkers and used SU! cardstock in Green Galore & Whisper White, the DSP's are free papers from Summertime Designs, the sentiment is SU! from Circle of Friendship, the flowers are also from Summertime Designs and the little bit of bling in the top flower is from my stash.
