Sitting On The Fence.

Thought I'd share the card that I made to give my DH for our Anniversary tomorrow,Oh my word,I can't believe it's been 26 years! The image is a freebie digi by Polycraft,downloaded ages ago,and here's a little secret,this is the first time ever that I managed to size a digi and print onto card,not paper,entirely by myself. Normally my very patient son helps me with this sort of thing but I need to try and do this myself,especially when the extremely talented Gayle Bond is about to release a whole range of Digi's,I'm so excited about this,she is such a clever lady! I can't wait to get creative with some of her images!


Not entirely pleased with my fence,could kick myself now as I've just remembered a demo I've watched somewhere where Corduroy was used to create a wood effect. too late now,will make a mental note for next time.I coloured the image using Copics and added glaze and stickles to the stamped hearts. The great big juicy heart buttons were a buy from Paperchase and the greeting is Jane's script by Woodware.


I'm entering a few challenges with this card and have just double checked that the image is a Friday Freebie by Pollycraft and discovered that my card fits in with this weeks challenge too,a first time for me entering one of their challenges!

Lovely Clouds

Out for a little Blog Hop today I picked up this little Digi Image by Pink Gem, I liked the effect I got colouring the clouds in using my lovely Copics, just a few brushes with the cool grey and a wipe across with the blender and they look all puffy! I believe Scrapbook Sisters have just had another delivery of the Copic Ciao pens this week, must see if I can add to my collection before they sell out again, I'm sure there must be some colours that I haven't got.

The Lovely little buttons are by papermania, The papers are the Pink Parfait,forever friends collection and my most favourite flowery paper is Crate paper I believe. Hope you like it,
Thanks for stopping by,
