Back to School

It's new release inspiration day at All Dressed Up.  For my inspiration today I'm using the very cute image Back to School Girl, you can find it here in Wendy's shop

I've coloured the image with Copics with a red, black and brown theme.  There's a little pop in there of orange as well :D

I've used a selection of design papers from Lemoncraft, Prima Marketing and Studio Light with some red and black card for matting.  

Keeping with one of the themes for the current Facebook challenge - layers.  My sentiment is made up from Tim Holtz stickers.

You can find more inspiration on the challenge blog and in the Facebook group today.

Thanks for popping by

Cala Lillies

It's time for our new sketch challenge at Outlawz.  We've some fantastic prizes but haven't had many entries, so we've decided the change thing up a little.

First of all let me tell you about the image called Cala Lillies, its one from our talented teamy Anne Fenton, you can find examples of her images here.

I've coloured the image with Clopics, then cut it out in a circle by hand and matted it onto a doily.

These are out sketch hints for September to use in your inspirastion.

My design paper is from Lemoncraft and Studio Light.  The ribbon which was in my stash I've tied in a bow to go with the sketch theme.

No sentiment on this one, just a few pearl gems to finish.

Thanks for popping by today, we hope to see you at the challenge

Time to Mend

Today is our new challenge at All Dressed Up in the Facebook Group.  This month our theme is CLEAN AND SIMPLE OR LAYERS.

I've chosen to use Tool Box for my inspiration, you can find it here in Wendy's shop.

I've coloured the image with Copics, then cut out the image and the design paper with

Spellbinders dies.

To layer up I've used some move plain card, the same stripey design paper and some red card.

The sentiment is made up from Tim Holtz stickers.

Don't forget we also have the challenge blog, you can find it here.

Thanks for popping by today, hope to see you at the challenge.

I'm joining the DT ladies for the challenge reminder using It's a Poppies, you can find here in the shop here where you can get 10% off by using SKIANDREA10 at checkout :)

I decided to do a monochrome colouring with a pop of colour to just one of the poppies using Copics.

No embellies to day, just a sentiment using a Tim Holtz sticker and some black card to mat the image on.

Sketch upgrade at Outlawz

It's time for our new sketch challenge at Outlawz.  We've some fantastic prizes but haven't had many entries, so we've decided the change thing up a little.

First to tell you about the image I'm using, it's a Ching-Chou Kuik one, you can find Forget Me Knot it her shop here.

I've coloured her with Copics keeping a really simple colour pallet of green and white.  I've cut her out to matt onto a frame of black card cut out with a Spellbinders die.

So now for the sketch theme, were giving you a shape and hints of what to add to your card, nothing else, really easy we hope :)

Here's a close up of the paper flowers.  I've included and image with flowers as well so both count.  you don't have to do anything fancy, unless you really want to.

Behind the image is a section of beautiful cream lace.

The design paper I used is from Maja Design, and I've also used some black card.  Three black gems in the corner to complete the card.

Thanks for popping by today, we hope to see you at the challenge

Just us girlz....

Today is our new challenge at All Dressed Up in the Facebook Group.  This month our theme is GIRLS RULE.

I've made a summer scene up using two of Wendy's images.  Seashells and Sandy Beach.

I've coloured the images with Copics, fussy cutting the Seashells girl, she's got sticky pads behind her to make her stand out from the background, which gives her a little extra shadow.

No design paper from me today, makes a changes ;)

Don't forget we also have the challenge blog, you can find it here.

Thanks for popping by today, hope to see you at the challenge.
