Honey Bee

A week gone by already! I'm here sharing my creation for Outlawz Sketch. We're sponsored this month by Through The Craft Room Door. For my inspiration I'm using a lovely image from Small and Round called Honey Bee

I've coloured the image with Copcis and a white gel pen. The edges of the image and all my design papers have been distressed using a Tonic Solutions tool.

Here's our sketch for this week

My design papers are from Joy Craft. I've kept the colour pallet simple to two colours. I've also used some black card.

The butterfly chip board embellishments I found at Scrap and Craft. My final addition a large paper flower I found in Hobby Craft.

Hope you like my inspiration for this week end we see you at the challenge

This beautiful image is from Small and Round called Spirals. I decided to colour in in pink but instead of my usual pastels I decided to try a stronger colour. All the colouring was done with Copics this time.

The image has been cut out with a Spellbinders die and then edged with Tim Holtz spun sugar distress ink. I've also added some Stampendous embossing enamel in white.

The flowers arranged around the image are all from Live and Love Crafts and Wild Orchid Crafts - here's a close up of them.

So onto the design papers which are from Lili of the Valley. I picked some complimenting bright pink papers with a touch of green to go with the image colours. All edges have been distressed to give them a shabby look then layered.

There's some lace, tulle pleat, organza rose trim and flat back pearl string all from Live and Love Crafts.

My final additions were some pearl self adhesive gems and a silver butterfly bead.

Spring blossom

I virtually ran out of square cards a short while ago and had to order some more, browsing I found these beauties (easel cards) on Craftwork Cards.

This is my first go at making one so I was experimenting a bit (so nothing new there then!).

The image is Spirals from Small and Round. The flowers in this image make me thing of spring blossoms so I wanted to colour her in very soft pastels and used ProMarkers to do this. The spiral is highlighted with some white opal Liquid Pearls. I've cut the image out to matches the shape of the easel card. I've then edged it with pink ProMarker.

Here's a picture of it flat so you can see it flat. The papers used are from Wild Rose Studio Antique Library. I used the darker shaded papers to create a border for the lighter shaded papers. The bottom of the image portion of the card is edged with some flat backed pearl trimming from Wild Orchid Crafts. I've also used pearl and clear self adhesive gems.

The flowers edging the image are from Wild Orchid Crafts and Live and Love Crafts.

On the bottom portion of the card I've used a couple of Spellbinders dies to create an area to write backed with the same lovely papers from Wild Rose Studio.
