Navy, Pink & Cake

Good Morning! 

Hope you are all well and not too cold. 
It's currently -2 here in the middle of the UK! 

Anyways, I'm here today to show you a card I've made for my cousin's birthday. 
I am going to add her age but I couldn't remember how old she is! Ooops! 
Turns out she's 13..... 

So, here's the card:


The colour scheme and layout have come from the inspiration pic and layout on Fusion Card - Link is HERE 
And the image is from Tiddly Inks. She is called "Cute as a Cupcake Girl" - Link is HERE
I can not remember the last time I used my Spectrum Noir pens but I did on this. I had forgotten how good they are! 
The spotted and chrevon papers are a digital download from etsy. 
Think I will die cut "13" out in pink and add it to lopsided spotty paper. 

  I'd like to enter this card in to the following challenges: 




Thanks for popping by! :)

FBF - Little Honey Pocahontas

Hello! 

Super quick post from me today with this weeks Flash Back Friday image which is Little Pocahontas.
She is FREE for 24 hours on the Facebook group - Link is HERE  


I wanted to do the native American look with her skin tone. I'm not completely happy with it but still, I like it. I used a hint of teal to brighten the card up and used chevron paper for the background. 

Super quick from me, post your finished creations on the group :)

Monday Greetings DT - Anything Goes

Hello everyone! 

I new challenge over at Monday Greetings on the OutLawz today - Link is HERE 
Our new challenge is "Anything Goes!" 
 
We are sponsored by Crafty Sentiments - Link to store is HERE 
I got to use the super cute Jason and Eve - Link is HERE

I have used a little play on words with the greeting. I thought it was quite appropriate with the little boy and girl :) 

  
Think I'm going through a chevron phase! Seem to be using a lot of this card at the mo. This time I went with a hint of yellow rather than blue tho. Infact, I think I'd already coloured the image in so that was pretty simple to make. I've used a grey and white spotty paper behind the image to tie in with this hair and trousers. Had to get some buttons in there too! And the play of words with the greeting made me chuckle. 

Here's a few more pics
Hope to see you join in the challenge :)

CWWC DT - Distress it

Morning! 

Super quick post from me as it's my Nephew's Christening today! Eeeek! 
So a brand new challenge over at Crafting When We Can today - Link is HERE 
We are sponsored by the awesome Oddball Art Co. - Link to store is HERE 
And our challenge is "Distress it!" 


I've used Big Eye Eve Has Something To Say - Link is HERE 
And I tried to stick to the red, blue and black colour combo, which is reflected in the buttons and colours used on the image itself. The sentiment has been printed off the pc. To distress my card, I roughed up the edges of the paper and cards. You can use various tools, I like to use a craft knife tho.

As I say, Super quick from me. Hope you enjoy your Sunday and look forward to seeing your creations on the blog! :)

MTTC DT - Inspired by The Beatles

Good Morning! 

Another fun filled challenge over at My Time To Craft this fortnight!! - Link is HERE 
Our challenge is 

"Inspired by The Beatles" 

It's up to you how you interpret the theme. 
I went for something a little quirky and used and SBS image - Link to store is HERE 


I mainly wanted to stick to a couple of colours and the red and blue sits well together. I've used 3 different types of patterned papers to add layers. The buttons and twine are added to the chevron strip with the greeting being printed off the pc. The image I've used is ASH from Jude and the Rockers range by Rachel Sharp. I do love these images! I've got the whole set so there maybe more cards made in the same colour schemes :) 

Looking forward to see how everyone makes something with the theme :)

CWWC DT - Favourite Colour Combo

Good Morning CWWC fans! 

A brand new challenge over at Crafting When We Can today - Link to blog HERE.
This fortnights challenge is "Favourite Colour Combo" 
Usually I got with my football teams colours, Claret & Blue, but I'm loving Red & Grey at the moment, so I went with this combo. 
We are also Sponsored by the awesome Art by Mi Ran - Link to Etsy Store HERE.
I was lucky enough to get to use Dreaming Of Spring - Link to image HERE.


Not a lot of mat and layering on my card. Wanted to keep it quite simple with the colours and design. I LOVE chevron paper!! And I also have a chevron embossing folder... bonus! The image itself has been coloured using Promarkers ans Copics. Added the spotty ribbon and bow to add a different pattern. Wasn't too sure whether it would work, but I think it does :) 


Looking forward to seeing all your fav colour combos!
