A ArtbyMiran Card for the Facebook Reserved Challenge

Good Afternoon Crafters, at the weekend I received my image for this months Reserved Challenge over on Facebook, and I printed her onto white card before colouring her with my copic pens. I then used one of my Nestabilitie Labels die to cut her out and then created a faux die for the mount by drawing around the die to create the larger one. The sentiment was created in the same way.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount out of blue card the papers are from Maja Design and I have used three of them with blue being the made colour scheme, the first has roses on and the second is a tapestry pattern and the third a distressed look
The mounted image was then placed towards the left and the sentiment in the bottom right hand corner. The final flourish are the two paper carnation flowers from my stash in the top right hand corner.

A Card for Sugar Nellie's "Anything Goes" Challenge

Good Morning Crafters, well would you believe it, its been over a month since I posted a card on this No.2 blog, but its been a busy one and although this image was coloured and ready to make into a card I never seem to get around to doing so.
This is one of the All Dressed Up images and I printed her onto white card then used my copic pens to colour her, afterwards I cut her out with my rotatrim and layered her up onto a mount of blue card. The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of blue card and the papers I have used are from Maya's "Coffee Time" and I have used three papers and layered them up as you can see, then placed my mounted image towards the left with the sentiment at the bottom on the left.
To finish of I have used 6 pearls to created the two flourishes down the top two corners.

A Card for Elaine and for the Sugar Bowl

Good Morning crafters, Im so sorry Ive been away for so long but if you visit my No.1 blog you will see why, I attended my eldest daughters wedding in Scotland and had a wonderful time. We actually left on Thursday as I had made arrangements to visit Elaine Livesay in Oldham and it was worth every moment of it, shes a wonderful person and made us feel so welcome and we also got to meet her gorgeous son Hal (who had come home to visit his mum on his Birthday, bless him) and her lovely hubby Phil, thanks love for a wonderful afternoon and thank you for taking time of work to spend it with us.
Then we spent the night in a motel before going on to Hamilton  for the next 3 nights, hubby Ian had booked a excutive room which was fabulous, I felt like a princess. The wedding was on Saturday and the weather was really kind and we had a wonderful day and everyone looked stunning. Then on Sunday we spent some of the day visiting the New Museum of Transport in Glasgow which my hubby wanted to go to for along time, he loves steam trains and along with lots of methods of transport he really did enjoy the trip. And we also watched the Marathon runners running past the building, and I did feel sorry for them as it was raining and they did look wet and uncomfortable some of them.
Then on Monday we went to Edinburgh to visit another of my dear friends Avril, and guess what Nikki had made the trip from Dundee to see us with her gorgeous children and her new babe who I hadnt met last time we were up in Scotland. Thanks Avril for such a lovely morning and I hope your not to tired looking after the children while mum takes a break. Hope you liked the cakes we left.
Anyway back to my card I have used one of the gorgeous Funky Knits images and I printed it onto a piece of white card then coloured with my copic pens, then I used Nestabilitie Dies to cut it out and mounted it onto another of the new Gold Labels in lilac card.
The base card is a white card with a piece of lilac card, and the papers are from Maya papers and then on top of this is a square doily and across the center is a piece of ribbon attached to the back of the first mount. The mounted the image in the center with a sentiment below in the right hand corner and the final thing is the die cut flourish in the left hand corner.

A Card for the Sugar Bowl

Good Afternoon Crafters, yes I know Ive been a naughty girl again and unfortunately this card may be the last for a couple of weeks as two of my grandsons are coming to stay next weekend for a week, they are the sons of my youngest daughter so I dont get to see them very often as they live quite a long way from me, so to have them for a week is just fabulous.
And this is what my dog feels like in this weather, she is finding it rather hot.

She wont stay on her own in the garden and once I go upto my craft room guess who follows Missy, she has her own bed on the futon settee by the side of my desk, and she makes herself comfortable on a pillow, though at this moment shes moved of onto the patchwork quilt, must be cooler.
Todays card has been created with one of the new Funky Kits Fairies, and I have stamped her onto white card then used my copic pens to colour her. Afterwards I used Nestabilitie Die Labels No.1 and a fancy one for the mount. The sentiment is one from my stash and that has been then cut and mounted on a folded banner diecut from Memory Box.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of blue card, the papers are from Maja and I have used three papers for my card. The mounted image was then placed in the middle with the sentiment down below on the right hand side.
To finish of I have used some clear dew drops as embellishments in the two opposite corners top and bottom.

Yet another of the new Fairy stamps from Funky Kits

Funky kits have released a new set of Fairy Glen stamps and this is one of them, my second one from the set, I have stamped her onto white card then used my copic pens to colour her, afterwards I have used Nestabilitie Labels Die 28 to cut her out then drawn around the die to create the mount.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a pink first mount and then I have used one of the beautiful Maja papers, this is a cream background with pink floral sprays on, then I have laid a square doily on top and wrapped a piece of crushed ribbon around the middle (I did use my copic pen on it to colour it) and attached to the back of the first mount.
The mounted image was then placed in the centre with a sentiment that I have stamped and mounted on yet another piece of pink card and placed at the bottom of the right hand corner.
