A bad blogger

I have been a very bad blogger and not posted for a whole week, tut tut. I have been busy doing other stuff!! I coloured this image in a little while ago and have only just added it to a card, which was fairly easy as the paper was left over from an exploding box i have made. Its a scrapbook paper and the border and everything was set out for me, so no real thinking from me lol. The image is a Sugar nellie 'girl and bird house' i think its called. I coloured with my Prismas pencils, which i have to say have been sadly neglected over the last few weeks since promarkers arrived.

Papertake Weekly challenge

I have at long last made a card this week! I have been so busy doing other things that have been sadly neglected, feel much better now i have got things sorted :) This is the first time i have used this Sugar Nellie stamp and must say it took a lot of colouring in as its quite a big stamp. I chose the Papertake weekly challenge as i love Katharina's sketches. The papers are the lovely K&Co again, with some DCWV card stock added. The corner scroll is a cuttlebug die cut, birthday greeting is Pink Petticoat. The flowers are from the bags of mixed flowers that Sarah's cards sell. The image has been coloured in with Prisma pencils and a little bit of glamour dust added for sparkle.

For my Forever friend

I have made this little book for my very dear friend Linda :) She is a very special lady and loved by all that know her. Keep an eye out for the postie Linda ;)

I have card stock that was very kindly sent to me by Donna, many months ago lol. The chocolate brown and pink go very well together. The stamp is another Sugar Nellie stamp, designer Elisabeth Bell. I have coloured this in with my pigment ink pads, just having a play around really.

Image one has been coloured with water coloured pencils and image two has been coloured with Prisma pencils, i just don't know which i prefer to use. I have used bazzil bling for the main card and some plain brown card stock. As you can see i have embossed some with Swiss dots cuttlebug folder, the with love embossing is from the set of cuttlebug border embossing set. The circle greeting is from Autumn leaves, just right for the always sassy Sugar nellie stamps. Watch out for these as the new ones have just been released. The fancy scrolls are from the vintage corners Cuttlebug dies, ribbon from Poppicrafts.
