A Little Touch Of Sunshine

It's been a beautiful day where I am in Kent today, rather chilly but the sunshine sure feels good on your skin. With that in mind I thought it would be fitting to share a sunny coloured card today using one of the gorgeous

 "Floral Delights" digis. it was a dream to colour, I just used two Copics and varied the way I used them on each bloom, topping a few with Swarovski hot fix pearls.

I used distress inks to add colour to some of the edges and to frame the image.

It's also a good opportunity to remind you that there's still one week left if you want to enter the 

"TLT Pink plus one challenge"

I'm using this card for the following challenges:-

Bunny Zoes, Flowers and pearls,

CC85, Blooming,

DMC76, Anything goes,

Lexis 84, Monochrome,

MIM 128, Anything goes.

Thanks for stopping by,

Cheers.

I thought I'd share a card that was requested by a friend for her husband's special birthday.

They run a pub and she was thrilled with this personalized creation. 

I'm not a great lover of decoupage, I really don't like lots of layers and foam pads but the images on this sheet were so perfect, nothing else would do.

I decided to just shape each layer slightly and add only a thin squeeze of Pinflair gel instead.

Some numbers cut on the Cricut, ribbling and embossing,

paper piercing and twine along with my favorite, hand cut bunting complete the card.

I'm using this card for the following challenges:-

Fab n Funky 158, It's on the inside,

SOS89, Birthday,

TTCRD, Anything goes,

TT134, Anything goes,

CWLC28, Birthday,die cuts, embossing,

MIM127, Anything goes,

TCC138, Birthday.

Pink Plus One

It's time for another challenge with the Ladybugs and this time is the lovely Laurie who's hosting and has set the theme,

"Pink Plus One Other".

Kerry has treated us again with yet more new digi's!

check out my "Billie Bear" (I think Kerry must have eaten too much of a certain meat product as a child.) My children used to beg me for Billy Bear ham when they were little.

I know it doesn't show in my rubbish photo but I made a tag requested by a friend for a maternity leaving present.

I am so disappointed with how the colours look, that's the trouble with taking photo's in artificial light. 

I'm using this for the following challenges:-

MIM 127, Anything goes,
DCD102, Red,pink,purple,white,
Whoopsi Daisy, Tags.
