Copic Challenge 16







It’s my granddaughter’s 1st birthday this Friday and this is the card I have made for her and entered it in the Copic challenge 16. I did not have the colours they suggested, so the ones I used to colour the magnolia image were similar which were RV13, RV23, Y02, Y11, E31, E35 and E21. The cardstock is pink bazzil and I found a piece of two toned patterned card, I have also used pink and yellow ribbon and fixed them together. I used my cricut machine to cut out the frames for matting and laying the image and for the wording. To finish the card I have added silver charms, and yellow brads in the middle of the flowers.


Thank you for looking.

Whiff of Joy Challenge 30


Inside of card


Willow with sun hat image.



For the Whiff of joy challenge 30 Friendship, I stamped Willow with sun hat image and then used disco black embossing powder to give it a bit of sparkle. I coloured the image using copic pens R00, E71, E47, B02 and BG05. The cardstock is blue Bazzil and the patterned paper is brown quilt from the Timeless collection. I have also stamped swirls and the word friend on the inside of the card. Then used Nestabilities for matting and laying the image, swirls and the word friend. For the finishing touch I then added paper lace, jewels which I glued on coloured gems, blue stickles and a flower.

Copic Challenge #13 Maddy's sketch

This week Copic challenge 13 is Maddy’s sketch, so for this challenge I have designed my husband’s birthday card. Which I have made in time as it is his birthday tomorrow. So I must not let him see my blog today otherwise he will see his card before I get chance to give it to him.

For the bear image I have used copic pens B23, B32, E71, RV21 and for the train YG63, YG67, BV23, C7, R27. The cardstock is green Bazzil and I had left over bits of striped patterned paper. I used my cricut machine to cut out all the different shapes, and then added paper lace and button embellishments.


Thank you for looking.

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.


Thank you for looking.

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.
