Sasayaki Glitter Sept Challenge Brown

This was a fun card to do..I coloured the little fella with Polychromos Pencils onto Neenah card..Please note that the background and foreground is just my artwork and nothing to do with the stamp,so will not be included I then trimmed and mounted it onto craft card.. Then cut and mounted the backing papers onto craft card..The papers are from Tonic's Woodland Walk paper pad..I used an unbranded die set from China but I believe you can get similar from Marianne Designs if you cannot find this dinosaur set,cut out both in craft card and drew what I wanted on like the eyes and toes etc..Yhen used pencil to give the textured look you sort of expect a dinosaur to haveand stuck them on with 3D glue so they are slightly proud of the image..The photos do not do justice to this card ,I am afraid my lighting is not so good tonight..
Thank you for popping by  ðŸ˜Š xx

**PLEASE NOTE THE STAMP IS ONLY THE FIGURE**

Sketch Saturday ..Pink Gem Designs

 Hiya..I have coloured the Penguin in Three times using it differently to create the three squares at the top..This was done with Polychromos Pencils onto Neenah Card..I then mounted it onto Red card,which I used throughout the card for highlights.The papers are from a Tonic paper pad called Winter wonderland..I used Pom Poms to decorate the center red piece of card and learnt using my new glue gun put glue on card not onto the small bits ..the air went blue as it stuck to one finger than another and another ..Phew only one blister so was able to finish the card lol!..great tool though,I just brought the little Boch one as its easy on my fingers ..well if I dont get the glue on them ..even with arthritic fingers it is easier to use than the usual small trigger type 😊..For the first time I have shown the inside of my card so you can see how I finish them..Thank you for popping by,have a lovely weekend 😃xx

Sept 1st New Release..Sasayaki Glitter

This is another card I thoroughly enjoyed..I coloured the image with Polychromos Pencils onto Neenah card, Once I had done this I drew in the three baubles inked  and coloured them in and then added the shading around the back of the baubles and the cute zebra this gives it much more depth..I then added a squiggle around the outer edge ,cut it out and mounted onto black card..All the papers used are also backed onto black card too..These are from a Tonic Christmas Wishes Pad ,and I used a cute darker tree and present one for the background and a nice gold coloured tree one as a band across the center to pick upon the gold in the one bauble and add to the backgroundI thin finished with three gold gems to opposite corners..
Thank you for taking the time to pop by :)xx

*** Please note the digi does not include the baubles
 that is my own art work as I wanted it to be a Christmas Card***

Sketch Saturday Challenge..Crafty Sentiments Designs

Hiya..for today's challenge card ,I have coloured the little girl in using Polychromos Pencils on Neenah card..The background is coloured with pastel chalks to give a very soft effect..The card I used for mounting is from Hunky Dory in a beautiful soft green,I used this throughout the card.The papers are from Docrafts Painted Blooms paper pad ,this has some lovely papers in,this one is actually satin finished and looks stunning in real ,the strip however is just matt and adds a different texture..The sentiment is cut off some card I brought from Kanban last year and is white and gold embossed onto craft card,as there are lines of words on it this was just a quick easy addition ,and it really stands out too ..To finish I added three deep red roses to the bottom of the left corner of the image ,they pick up the red from the image and from the paper ..Remember it does not have to be exactly the same as the sketch when you visit the challenge blog you will see how the other girls have interpreted it ,you can show a bit of you own artistic flair ,after all if we did exactly the same it would make us so boring lol..Imagine everyone being able to make cards like mine lol!.. so out of the box sometimes I scare myself ha! ha!..But it's all about the love of doing it ..

Sasayaki Glitter Challenge Reminder

Hiya..for this card I coloured the image in with my Polychromos Pencils on Neenah card,I then fussy cut around it leaving a small white line to help it pop off the card..I have used black card for matting this one ..The background paper is from a tonic pad called Folksy Florals and the beautifully foil embossed craft card is from Kanban I purchased from C&C last year..You can see how nice it is on the center picture..After gluing the backing papers onto the card base I then added the gold panel with 3D glue to give a bit of depth,Then I added a small black piece of card I did a wiggle line around with the 3D glue to lift that up and finally added the mouse with the same glue,it helps to give the card  depth and a bit of movement..I kept it simple by adding a few black gens to opposite corners ..This can then be given to a boy or girl even though the bike and hat is blue it is a nice neutral card..and I think the cool mouse would be fun for either..Thank you for popping by :)xx

New Release at Sasayaki Glitter

I have coloured this super cute Turtle Couple with my Polychromos Pencils onto Neenah card,Then I mounted it onto Craft card as I did the lovely papers ,these are from a pad I got from C&C a while ago as their members freebie , it's by THE PAPER BOUTIQUE and is called Rasberry Ripple..lovely 8x8 papers in ice cream colours yummy lol! ..I used some flower dies from China and hand coloured them leaving the center one white for contrast, added them to the card with 3D glue,I then added the last few white flowers and a few faux pearl gems to the one side and to the one corner..To finish I added a computer generated sentiment to the bottom right , bending it gently in my fingers to give it a bit of movement and glued with 3D glue gel..I kept the sentiment open so it could be for a variety of occasions ...
Thank you for taking the time to pop by :)

WWODT August Challenge

This is by far one of my favourite cards in a while..I have coloured the beautiful image by Julia Spiri in with Polychromos Pencils onto Neenah card..I then coloured the background with pastel chalks as I did not want it to over take the image..I used pencil just to define it..It was then mounted onto some Pink Hunkydory Card..as was the lovely papers..I chose these ones as the image looked perfect on them..I rather than making flowers decided to decoupage the lovely flowers on the papers and add them on with 3D glue to make them pop up off the page and to add some depth..I do love playing with papers this way ,on this particular case the paper and the image marry together perfectly..The paper pad I used was Hunkydory Florabunda,and it has some extremely beautiful papers in there and they are also double sided too ,so great value for money..I would have used glitter but my my glue pen has died,but after looking at it today in the daylight I am pleased I did not ..not keen on glitter except at Christmas of course ,but that goes with out saying as its all glitter then he! he! he!..
