Friday Sketchers & Winter Wonderland Challenges.

Phew haven't been around for a week!! Its been pretty hectic, the kind of hectic where you do loads but actually look like you have done nothing at all. So I sat in bed last night watching Dirty Dancing on the telly and coloured this lovely image I bought from the Harrogate show ages ago.

I am entering this into 2 challenges, firstly Friday sketchers challenge 105 which provided the fab sketch, love simple clean elegant ones like this and secondly the Winter Wonderland challenge which is love at Christmas. Image is coloured with pro markers and papers I have no idea where they came from. Not sure who makes the stamp it doesn't say on the side, but I think I bought it from the stamp addicts stand at the show.

Winter Wonderland & Friday Sketchers Challenges


Friday Sketchers is celebrating its 101st sketch with a fab sketch and a blog hop with loads of prizes along the way so make sure you go take a lookie!!

This card has been made with the sketch from Friday Sketchers and the theme from Winter Wonderland which is ''cute creatures''. I actually dont have that much in the way of christmas backing papers so I made this one myself from tumbled glass distress ink and a very large creative expressions stamp. The reindeer image is from whipper snapper and coloured with my trusty promarkers.

Friday Sketchers Challenge 100 & I Love ProMarkers Challenge 13


This weeks sketch for Friday Sketchers is their 100th sketch!! I really had fun making this for this challenge. I am also entering it into the I Love ProMarkers challenge 13 which is ''wings'' I really do love Magenta stamps, this set has to be one of my favorites but very hard to colour with pro markers. I really had a struggle with the flowers, they are from Prima and are some sort of gauze type material, they rip as soon as you look at them and all in all get a 0/10 rating from me, pretty crappy flowers, nightmare to try glue down too.

Paper: Once Upon a Time stack, DCWV
Image: Magenta
Flowers: Prima

Just Magnolia, Friday Sketchers & Tuesday Taggers Challenges


Finished this card today with my new Magnolia images that arrived yesterday. Love the pirate theme, but I did get stuck on how to colour the anchor LOL!. I am entering this into 3 challenges today.

Friday Sketchers: The sketch
Just Magnolia: Theme - ''Anything goes''
Tuesday Taggers: Theme - Childhood memories Sponsored by ''The Craft Barn''

You may be wondering how this fits into the theme of ''childhood memories'' well I have a partly fond memory of being taken to Disney Land Paris by my Grandma, While in the pirates themed area a very French pirate came up behind me and went ''Booo'' in my ear, I screamed, everyone laughed. I wasn't impressed at all!!

Main image and background is Magnolia, sentiment is from butterfly kisses, paper is from DCWV Once Upon a Time stack.
