Mr Squirrel

This is my second lot of inspiration for All Dressed Up new release day, this time I'm using Hello Squirrel.

The image has been coloured with Copics, I tried to keep a fully autumnal look to this card wanting it to completely contrast with the previous one.

I've used Design papers from Lili of the Valley and Joy Crafts,

A few tiny wooden hears, a few paper leaves and a sentiment coloured with Copics complete the card.

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

Waiting

I think I may have learned something along the way in my Copic lessons.... about blending and texture and adding detail.  I've tried to put some of this into practice on the image below.  Thank you so much Faye and Alyce

The image is called Waiting you can find it here in my Etsy shop where you can get 10% off by quoting SKIANDREA10 at checkout.

As well as using Copics I've used white, gold and orange gel pens and a black polychromos pencil

Just plain and simply mounted onto some black card to frame it.

Hope you love my inspiration today

Nut Roast for Christmas

Perfect Christmas card for Veggie - LOL!!

I've turned an autumn image from our sponsor TLC at Outlawz Sketch into a Christmas card.  I have no idea where I get my ideas from sometimes :)

This image is called Sharing Dinner Squirrels.  I've coloured it with Copics.  It's been cut out with a Spellbinders die, distressed with Vintage Photo ink from Tim Holtz and mounted onto a black frame.  this was cut out of black card using another Spellbinders die.

Here's our sketch for this week.  I've flipped the background but kept the image going in the same direction.

My design papers are from Studio Lite and I've also used some more black card.

No embellishments for this one, just a sentiment from Scrap and Craft coloured with black Copic.

Hope you like my inspiration today and we see you at the challenge ;)

Nuts about you

Today I'm sharing my inspiration for Wendy's new release images at All Dressed Up for October.  This cute little guy is Bushy Tail.  I was going to go way out there and colour it pink at first but I'm loving the seasonal inspiration at the moment.  All the trees are definitely autumnal near us now :)

I still need to get some lessons on how to do fur with Copics.  This was coloured with Copics and then I've aded some more texture with polychromos pencils to make him look furry.

I dug out some old Lili of the Valley papers for this one and a strip of off cut from Maya Design.  All my papers were distressed.  You can probably see I've also used some black and red card in the mix as well.

The sentiment Nuts about you was hand written on and I've also done a bit of doodling around the image frame.

My only embellishment a few wooden hearts

Hope you like my inspiration for today
