Introducing Sassy

Sassy is an exclusive with Kit and Clowder for their event this weekend with All Dressed Up, make sure you pop along there to grab her, you won't be able to buy her in the shop!

To see Wendy's gorgeous images for sale click here to see them on Etsy.

I've used Copics to colour the image, the edges of it have been distressed with Antique Linen ink from Tim Holtz and a Tonic solutions tool.  I've sprinkled some embossing enamel around the image.

The love sentiment is from the wedding section at Hobby Craft and I've also added a couple of tiny wooden hearts which I got off eBay.

My design papers from Maja Design and First Edition have also been distressed.  My final embellishment are some pearl gems.

We hope you enjoy using her :)

Unknown Dancers

I'm sharing a new image with you today Unknown Dancers - you can find them here in my Etsy shop where you can get 10% off al my images by quoting SKIANDREA10

I've coloured the image with Copics, added a few rhine stones for some interest and two of Tim Holtz Idea-ology stickers to create a sentiment "Love Life".  At the edges of the image I've also done a little doodling.

Keeping the card design simple to showcase the image, I've used black and white design paper from First Edition with a tiny shot of red card to the very left.

One final addition is a tiny wooden heart at the top left.

Thanks for taking a look today

Dragon's Fly

Last week of the month already for sketch challenges over at Outlawz.  Where did the last month go?

I'm sponsoring our lovely ladies this month.  You can visit the SheepSki Designs shop here where you can get 10% off my images by quoting code SKIANDREA10 at checkout.

This is a new image, it's Morpheus, he's awake!!  AND he's got some little dragonfly friends.  the image is called Dragon's Fly (did you notice Morpheous now has wings?).  You can find Dragon's Fly here.

The image was coloured with Copics and I've also used a white gel pen.  The image and design papers framing it have been cut out with Spellbinders dies.

Here's our sketch for this week.

I've used design papers from First Edition, Dovecraft, Lili of the Valley and Lemoncraft

One simple sentiment to embellish from Scrapiniec.

Hope we see you at the challenge

Dreams

The third week already!  I'm sponsoring Outlawz Sketch this month.  This image I'm sharing with you today is called Sleep Tight, you can find it here in my shop.  It's actually under the Girls section but as you can see it can easily be used for a boy :)

The image had been coloured with Copics, cut out and mounted onto some design paper from UHK to frame it.

Here's our sketch for this week.  I've flipped it on its side for my card.

The other design papers you can see here are from Maja Design and Joy Crafts.

No embellishments this time and all I've done is added a script sentiment from Scrapiniec "Dream"

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

Black Hellebore

I don't know if they're actually classed as black hellebore but I'm going with that for my title :)

I started the February markers class from Kit and Clowder.  Whilst I was in the middle of doing it I opened the booklet version and saw the alternative version.  I was like wow I've got to have a go at those!

I've used some slightly different flower colours to the ones Alyce has listed but the original leaf colours.  For mine I've gone for the BV range (BV20, BV23, BV25 and BV29) I've also used V99 and R59.  As well as using Copics I've also used a white gel pen to highlight the centre of the flower.

I found some perfect matching design paper from First Edition.  A section of it was cut with a Fantasy Banner die added to the top left.  That's it plain and simple just like the other card to showcase the image and colouring.

Hope you like my alternative version :)

K&C Hellebore Class

Yay finished another Kit and Clowder colouring class!  Below is a close up of my flowers.  I'm really loving these classes so glad I signed up for them and they're really helping me to get a grip with Copic markers.

I think I maybe could have done the purple ones a bit darker, next time ;)

Whilst I was colouring these up I opened up the class booklet version and had to have a go at an alternative colour!  You'll see that after I've posted this version - I just had to share they've come out so well!!

I've done a very simple card design to showcase my colouring.  The design paper is from Santoro and I've used a Fantasy die to cut a tiny banner out of the same paper for the top of the card.

Serenity

This is the second week of sponsoring Outlawz Sketch.  You can find this image in my Etsy shop here.  She's called Serenity.  You can get her and any of my other images with 10% off by quoting SKIANDREA10 at checkout.

The image was actually coloured a few weeks ago with Copics.  Then I wasn't quite sure what to do with her.  Then when I saw this weeks sketch I thought she's be perfect for it.

Behind the image your can see some black card cut with a Spellbinders die.  I've used this to frame her.

With my design papers for this week I've co-ordinated them with my image.  They're from Studio Light and Maja Design.

The tiny banners at the top left were cut with a Fantasy die.  At the edge of them I've used lilies and rose buds.

Now usually I'd use some ric rac when I've seen Sandra use this in a sketch before.  This time I thought I' try something a little different.  I've added some teal sequins (yes they took a while to glue on) in a similar shape.

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