A Card for Sugar Nellie and Sugary Sunday Challenges

Good Afternoon Crafters, you know the saying "I dont know whether Im on my a.. or my elbow" its been a busy couple of weeks for me and to be honest I really dont know where it has gone, also I have caught my dear hubbys cold and its really making me feel lousy, tired sore throat and a chest infection, so Im not really a 100% so I hope you will forgive me for not being so regular with my card making.
Anyway todays card has been made using one of the Funky Kits images and she is just gorgeous with her punch of Daffodils and I have printed her onto white card then used my copic pens to colour her, afterwards I used Nestabilitie Labels Die No.4 to cut her out and a fancy one for the mount. The sentiment is one of the Little Darlings one and this has been mounted onto another piece of yellow card.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of yellow card, the papers are from the Sweetshoppe Digi "The Yellow Brick Road" paper set, and I have used three papers and on two I have used the Tulip border punch from Martha Stewart.
I then used a embossing folder on a strip of green card and placed it along the middle and the mounted image was then placed on top with the sentiment down below in the right hand corner.

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.

My last card for 2013 - Sugar Bowl "Glittery Fairy Challenge"

Good Afternoon Crafters, well before I go any further I want to wish you all a Very Happy Christmas and to say that this will be my last card for 2013 as I want to take a break and perhaps recover some of my mojo which seems to be a little lacking in the last few weeks. And to be absolutely honest my hubby went to visit his daughters and grandchildren last weekend and came home with a rotten virus and I thought I had managed to avoid it but yesterday and today its hit really bad, my body aches and Im coughing like crazy so I just want to try and get rid of it before Christmas but I suspect knowing me it will hang around longer than I want.
Well todays card has been created using one of the cute Sugar Nellie Fairy stamps and I have printed it onto white card then used my copic pens to colour it, afterwards I cut it out using nestabilitie dies and the mount is a fancy one of the one used on the image.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card and the first mount is a mauve card and the papers are from one of the Christmas Cds from Bearlymine Designs and I have used three of them to compliment the colouring of my image. I have also glittered the image on the wings and cuffs of the coat and her leggings.
To finish of I have used a diecut sentiment and a snowflake in the bottom left hand corner, in the center I have put a white pearl.

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 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.

A Card for the Sugar Bowl and Sugary Sunday Challenges

Good Morning Everyone, I carnt believe its a week since I posted anything to my blog, I have been keeping my No.1 blog upto date but poor No.2 has been left out, anyway today Im going to try and rectify this and here is my card for this fortnights Sugar Bowl and Sugary Sunday Challenges, and this is one of the new Christmas Digi's from Funky Kits, isnt he cute. Ive printed him onto white card then used my copics to colour him, I then used a Rectangle Die from Spellbinders and then used a Daisy Chain die for the mount. The sentiment is a Just-rite one thats been cut out with a circle die and mounted onto a larger one.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card and for my first mount Ive used a blue card, and the papers I have used are from Donna's Bearlymine Christmas papers, Ive used three papers in shades of fawn, turquoise and brown which are the colours that are asked for in the challenge.

Ive layered it up as the sketch requires and then used a Martha Stewart Snowflake punch to create the three snowflakes that have been placed at the top of the image.
This Card is to be entered in the following Challenges:-

Another card for Sugary Sunday and Sugar Bowl Challenges

Good Afternoon All, well the clouds are on their way back so I suppose its going rain again soon, Im fed up with it and I suspect the rest of you are to. Well todays card has been created for this weeks "A Card for Men/Boy" Challenge over on Facebook for Sugary Sunday, and as the Sugar Bowl Challenges are also running for a month I thought that I would combine them and use this gorgeous little boy image from Funky Kits, its a digi image actually and Ive printed him onto white card then used my copic pens to colour him. Afterwards Ive used the Rectangle Die from Nestabilities and mounted it on yet another larger one. The sentiment is a Whimsey ticket stamp and has been treated in the same way as the image.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of pale blue card, the papers Ive used are from the Nitwits "Oh Boy" digi paper set, and have mounted them up as the sketch shows, I then positioned my mounted image at an angle on the left and the swirl has been stuck down on the right with the sentiment at the top on the right.
This Card is to be entered in the following Challenges:-
