A Card for the Sugar Bowl "Colour" Challenge

Good Afternoon Crafters, well its pouring with rain here in Gloucestershire and no doubt the Wye and Severn will overflow again Im so glad I dont live quite so near to it as some of the places along the rivers become flooded. Anyway todays card has been created for the colour Challenge over on the Sugar Bowl.
I have used a gorgeous image from Funky Kits and stamped her onto white card then used my copic pens to colour her, afterwards I used Nestabilitie Dies to cut her out and mounted her onto a Destressed edge one for the mount.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of pink card, the papers I have used are from Sweetshoppe Digi "Heart Smiles" paper set, the first one a damask pattern in pink the second a grey one and the third a plaid one in pink and grey and white.
I then placed my mounted image slopping towards the right with Memory Box Precious Hearts down the left side and a sentiment across the bottom left hand corner.
This Card is to be entered in the following Challenges:-

A Extra Treat for You

Good Afternoon All, yes a second card in two days I must be crazy but I needed to make a card for this weeks Challenge over on Sundays with Santa on Facebook and this weeks theme is "Santa" and when I was looking at the image below I saw this as well and thought Arrrr this is the right one for the theme.
I printed him onto white card then coloured him with my copic pens I also used glitter on the fur and snow writer on the beard, afterwards I used Nestabilitie Labels Die No.1 to cut him out and a fancy one for the mount out of red card. The main card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of red card and the papers I have used are from Kaisercrafts "Christmas Collection" and I have used three papers from the set, the first one is red background with holly bunches on and the second is a green one and the third is a beige background with what I think are Lauren sprays on but Im probably wrong.
On top I have placed my mounted image and then below I used the Papercrafts horizontal sentiment die and punched out the snowflake in the top right hand corner, I punched out three different sizes and dipped them into German Glass glitter and layered up.

A Card with one of the La La Land Images

Good Morning Crafters, I thought it was about time I used a couple of my La La Land images and as the weather is rather cold I thought this was a ideal one to use first, not sure if we are in for some snow in the future but it would preferable to the rain weve been enduring, its really bad along the Severn and Wye Valley both rivers are now flooded and Im so glad that my house isnt to close to the river or no doubt we would be in the same boat as several people are already.
The image I have used is a Snowboard image and I have coloured it with my copic pens and then cut it out completely. The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of blue card, the paper is from the Maja Vintage Frost Basics and on top of this I have used two die cut which have been cut with Memory Box dies, I then used stickles along the edges of both the tree and the mountains and houses.
I then placed my cut out image in the left hand corner and punched a snowflake with a Martha Stewart punch, and on top I put a sentiment and cut this out with my Nestabilitie circle die.

Happy New Year to All

Good Morning All, and a Very Happy New Year to you I hope your Christmas was wonderful, ours was very quiet as both of us were suffering with a chest infection and didnt think it would be fair to pass it on to any of the family, though it was one of them that past it onto us. Anyway Missy enjoyed opening her present and we both had a few between us to open and Ive a feeling she thought she should have opened them to.
I made this card just before the New Year and posted it on the Facebook Sundays with Santa Challenge page, its a page were each week some of us start to collect our cards for Christmas and its a good way of getting ahead of all those that we need these days. This is a Funky Kits image and I have printed her onto white card then coloured her with my copic pens, I then cut her out with the new Tonic layering dies, and after I had cut her out I used glitter on her wings and some of the other things like the bobbles on her coat and the want.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first layer of blue card, the papers are from Nitwits "A Merry Christmouse" and as theres a mouse in the image I thought it was quite appropriate for this card. I have used four papers and layered them as shown. The mounted image was then placed towards the left, and the sentiment which is from my stash and cut out with one of the labels Nestabilitie Dies down in the right hand corner.
To finish of I have punched out some snowflakes with my Martha Stewart punches and then glittered them with German Glass glitter and latered them up and then placed them three at the top on the right and one at the bottom on the left.
