New me.........

I know the idea is good but I'm sure I'm not going to be lifting weights like this, unless they're feathers haha!

This is one of Wendy's newly released images for January.  You can find New Me in her Etsy shop here.


The images has been coloured with Copics in one of my favourite colour combinations, pink and teal.

I've used a mix of design papers from First Edition, Santoro and Maja Design.  One section was cut with a die from Dies to Die for.


The banner section at the bottom was hand cut and I've added a few pink pearls to finish.

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

Doodling


I got to thinking about people not seeing friends and families for a while with lock down so thought a Saying Hi card would be nice :)


I sketched in a cloudy background, this and the image have been coloured with my Copics.  There's a little embossing enamel scattered around the clouds.

Behind the image I've added some Film Strip from Tim Holtz.


I've added a sentiment "Fly by to say Hi" using Tim Holtz stickers.  I've done quote a bit of doodling with a liner pen, sound the ova;, the edges fo the card, a smiley face and if you look carefully you can see some flying birds behind the film strip at the top.

A few while gems and a couple of enamel arrows to finish.

Thanks for popping by for a look at my doodles today :)

Birthday Cake

     Wow can you believe it's a new year!  So many of us will be so happy to see the back of 2020!


I've decided to make a happy birthday card for my inspiration today using Love to Bake, you can find it in the shop here.


The image has been coloured with Copics.

I've used some blue glitter papers and some design paper from First Edition to match the colours of the image.


The sentiment is a wood chip one coloured with Copics.

Don't forget we also have a blog challenge, you can find that here.

Thanks for popping by today

Feeling Happy

It snowed the other day here in the UK, so this inspired me to make Head Stand into a Christmas card.  He's one of the happiest snowmen I've seen in a snowstorm!  You can find him here in the shop where you can get 10% off all images by quoting SKIANDREA10 at checkout.



The image has been coloured with Copics.


I've made a single layer card adding some embossing enamel for a snow storm.

The only other thing I've added is a silver wooden sentiment I got in Hobby Craft.
