Toucan of appreciation

A recent addition to the shop at SheepSki Designs, you can find Tropical here, and get 10% off all images by quoting SKIANDREA10 at checkout.

When I printed the image I created the sentiment at the same time.

I've coloured it with Copics and added some embossing enamel in two colours.

A very simple single layer CAS card.  Thank you for popping by for a look at it

Hugs

CRAFT Challenge 474 - Thank You!

SheepSki Designs is sponsoring C.R.A.F.T. Challenge. I'm also guest designing for them this week.  The theme for Challenge 474 - Is Thank You!

We're also sponsoring Star of the Month :)

I've used Annabell for my card, you can find her here in my Etsy shop.  Annabell was one of my first images.

The image has been coloured with Copics, I'm not sure if you can see I've used gold and white gel pens to add some flower in the grass.

The image, design papers from Joy Craft, Maja Design and black card have all been distressed with a Tonic Solutions tool.

The wood chip thank you sentiment and flower stem I found at Scrap and Craft.

Thanks for taking a look today

It's been a while

I have the honour today of being a guest designer for Paradise of Stamps.  Their challenge for the next month is Anything Goes - check them out here

It's been a while since I used a Make It Crafty image, I was addicted to Zoe's images when I first found digital images.  Then I ended up working of design teams and found I no longer had time to create with what I wanted when I wanted.  I'm so happy I've finally had time to colour up this little beauty - she's called Wishful Asha and you can find her here

The image was coloured with Copics - the hair came out slightly messier than I hoped but then I am still practicing :)

The edges for the image have had vintage photo ink applied, it's had a scattering of embossing enamel in two colours and then been distressed.

My design papers are from Studio Lite and First Edition, I'v also used some black card

The black lace I've had in my stash for ages.  The flowers were bought from Wild Orchid Crafts and Noor Design.

Finally there's a For You sentiment coloured with black Copic which I also got from Noor Design.

Hope you like my inspiration for today

Shabby Chic Thank You

Our theme for the next two weeks at Fussy & Fancy Friday is Thanks.  At first I was going to create a card with an image but I changes my mind whilst making the card.

I've used design papers from Lemoncraft.  They're been distressed and on the top paper I've scattered some embossing glitter and enamel.

Layers of lace from The Ribbon Girl and Wild Orchid Crafts have been mixed with a wood chip border and flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts and Noor Design.

The corner and sentiment are also wood chip elements that I got from Scrap and Craft.  A few rhine stones and a couple of sequins complete the shabby chic look.

Hope you love my inspiration today and we see you at the challenge

A Simple Thank You

I have the honour today of being a guest designer at The Crazy Challenge.  Their theme for the next two weeks is to give thanks.

I decided to make a simple thank you card using a purple and green theme.  the image you can see here is from SheepSki Designs called Freesia Vase and you can get these with 10% off by quoting code SKIANDREA10 on Etsy

 

The image has been coloured with ProMarkers and polychromos pencils.  The image has been cut out with a Spellbinders die and frames with black card stock.

I've only used black card stock and one design paper from Craft & You.

Embellishments are a wood chip Thank You sentiment, some silver dragonfly charms and some purple pearl gems
