It's an animal thing.....

Our third Facebook challenge of the year is here.  This month we'd like to see your creations with aninmals the theme, "IT's AN ANIMAL THING".

For my inspiration today I'm using Star Pup, it's not in Wendy's shop at the moment, but if you like him send Wendy a message and she'll be able to help you out ;) 

The image has been coloured with Copics.  I wanted to keep a simple colour pallet so have used blues with a pop of brown.  The edges of the image have been distressed with a tool.

My design paper are from Maja Design and Hobby Craft.  I've used some Spellbinders letter for the sentiment.

Don't forget we have the blog challenge running until 14th April with a new challenge starting on 15th April.  Double your changes to win :)

Thanks for popping by for a look today.  Hope we'll see you at the challenge.

March Outlawz Sketch Challenge

Its the first Wednesday of the month which means its time for our Outlawz Sketch challenge.

We're sponsored this month by Anne's Digital Art, I'm using Suzy with Tree for my inspiration.

The image has been coloured with Copics and I've added some embossing enamel for snow.

These are our hints for March.

I've gone a different way with this one.  Concentrating on the greens for my Christmas card and I've used some star design paper from Lily of the Valley.

I've also used some black card for matting and a wooden Merry Christmas sentiment from Hobby Craft.

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

My tree....

Its the first Wednesday of the month which means its time for our Outlawz Sketch challenge.

We've no sponsor this month, so that means we can use whatever we like for our inspiration this time :)

I've chosen to use Tree Topper from Saturated Canary, I've had this image in my stash for a long, log time and not used it.

I used to use this colour combination a lot, being one of my favourites.  I'd not used it for a while, so thought I'd try a non-traditional coloutews Christmas card with it - and I love how it came out!

The image has been coloured with Copics.  The snow was created using white embossing enamel

These are our sketch hints for this month.

My design paper is from Lily of the Valley, I've cut the Xmas Tree sentiment out using letter dies.  My only embellishment a silver glitter star.

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

Today is our Facebook Challenge day at All Dressed Up.  the theme for this month is Gems / Sparkle / Shine.

I've chosen to use All Dressed Up for Christmas for my inspiration, she's one of my favourites!  You can find her here in Wendy's shop.

I've coloured her with Copics giving her a fairy green glow.  I've sprinkled some embossing enamel around to add to a starry background.

I've used recycled some cardboard for the base cutting it with a die and then layered up the glitter paper and hand cut image.

I've added a tiny silver star to the sky and then used a selection of ribbons from my stash.
