Copic Challenge #12

The Copic Challenge #12 was to use the colours R20, E33 and E57, but I only had E33. So I used alternative colours R00, E21, E47 and Marvy pens for the watercolour scenery. The cardstock is American Crafts that is double sided which makes it easy to coordinate, I added paper lace that I coloured to match. Then I punched out in the same cardstock an envelope shape and also used flowers and star gems for the finishing touch.

Everyone’s birthday seems to come at once, now its my husband’s sister birthday. So I made this card for her, I was determined to enter it in this challenge. But I am pushing it to enter it on time, where does the time go. Now I must go and make another card this time for my husband, at least get it prepared so hopefully I can enter another challenge.

Thank you for looking.

Uncle card

I made this card for my husband uncle, I did not have time for entering it for any challenges. But I thought I would still add it to my blog.

Copic Challenge 7

Copic challenge 7, for this challenge it involved using the colours B12, E47, R22, but I also used E21 and YG23 to complete the colouring of the stamped image. My friend bought me a beautiful pad of patterned papers by K&Company, which I just had to use with this sweet Sugar Nellie Daisy stamp. I also used blue Bazzil card, velvet ribbon, blue gems and flowers that I had amongst my stash of embellishments.

Truly Scrumptious Challenge 4

Inside

Truly Scrumptious Challenge 4 – Flower Power, I just could not wait to get started with this exciting challenge. But it was a bit more difficult then I imaged because as I looked at what flowers I had, I just could not make up my mind, which colour to use and I also had trouble finding patterned paper. So I thought right, I will just pick a sheet of coloured Bazzil cardstock, which I then stamped on it, using three different flower images. So this was the start of my design, I then coloured the image with copic pens using BG15,C7,R00,E31,E71 and added silk, paper and punched out flowers that coordinated. I continued to decorate the inside of the card with the left over cardstock and flowers.

Whiff of Joy Challenge #22 Green

Busy, busy, busy. Been buzzing around down our local Heritage railway station organising and preparing for the Easter bunny egg hunt. Leaving me lack of time to enter many challenges, getting withdraw symptoms so hope to be back to normal soon.
So for this Whiff of Joy Challenge #22 Green, I thought I would design a Mothers Day card complementing the greens of Spring. The image and paper lace is coloured with copic pens and the patterned paper is Deja Views Apple. For the finishing embellishments I have used coordinating buttons with peeloff letters on, plus ribbon and flower to complete the card.

Whiff of Joy Challenge #20 Lavender and Lace

For the Whiff of Joy Challenge #20 Lavender and Lace, I decided to use Willow with sun hat stamp and coloured her with copic pens. I was very lucky to find a sheet of lavender patterned paper by K & Company amongst my stack of papers, and I also found the flowers that I had left over my daughters wedding. While I was out yesterday I saw some ribbon and lace that caught my eye and thought that’s just the thing I am looking for to decorate my card with. I also applied lavender stickles on top of the punched out flower shapes.

Copic Challenge 3

Copic Challenge 3 – For this card I used sassafras Lass / Life’s Beautiful patterned paper and DCWV cardstock to match. To coordinate the colours, I coloured the image with copic pens using Y15 Cadmium Yellow (hair), R05 Salmon Red (top), E71 Champagne (trousers) and E21 Baby Skin Pink (body). I also used my cricut machine to cut out a frame for the image, and for the finishing touches I inserted a brad and a decorative jewel into the middle of the flower, and placed these on top of the punched out flower shapes.
