.....and the rest!

Today is the final day of my shares. The cards today are made using images, which I Love, haven't used nearly as much as I should have, and also couldn't put into a post individually.

Sit back and have a browse.

I'm not sure all these will make it to the coffee shop, but I'll try.

I hope you have enjoyed, and have felt a little inspired to use those odds and sods to create little pieces of art!!

Take care and Enjoy your day.

Mo Manning's Trinity!

I was hoping to post this last night but, Blogger has changed its designing process and to get the new look (which I'm not sure about) took forever!!!!!!!!!!!

Anyway better late than never!!

I love Mo Manning Digital Pencil Images they are so cute and childlike, they really capture the characters of children beautifully.

Please let me introduce you to Trinity. I have coloured her using my Copics, which I have to now get more of as I seem to be buying more Digital Images and my Promarkers don't work that well with them. The Dotty background is something I saw on PapercraftbyRach's Blog and I have been practising it, I like these colours as they remind me of the film, Bedtime stories, where the Gumballs fall out of the sky.

Here is the card. I want to do something a little different, so made it look a little bit like a bag / satchel with the straps. I used Stampin' Up Papers, which I think are retired now.

I added a read button with linen thread.

Along with some grey buttons and linen thread, on each strap.

I wanted to add some apples to the front but it didn't look right so I put them inside. These are cut using a very old sizzix die.

I love this card, and think it would be perfect for end of year teachers cards or even for a children starting the new year. Just have a thought. Would look great reduced in size and put on a bookmark as a leaving pressie to my class ready for new year!!!!! As Mo has school boy images too it would be perfect!

Anyway the sun is shining today. can't walk far as the hip is not co-operating so may have to spend time in the Garden colouring, what hardship.

Have a lovely day all.

PS: On Monday I am going to start 6 Days of a showcase of Kathy Hare's New Images available from Funky Kits now. So pop by and have a look if you are interested!!!!!!

Some goodies from the NEC

I have loved this image ever since I saw it, I think it was when Rachel, of Papercraftsbyrach, coloured her and created a gorgeous project with her, and although I have it as a digital image, I couldn't resist when I saw it at the NEC.

The image is called SOAKING UP THE JOY, I was surprised at how small it was but then I realised it means I can put her onto lots of 3D projects too.......... watch this space!!!

I punched out my favourite flowers in Bazzil Papers and sanded them. I also bought some EK Success Swirly Punches, and punched these out in Old Olive Cardstock.

I then added some of the Brads I made using the i-top. IT IS BRILL!!!!! I Love It!!!!! I'm just waiting for more punches and some more brad daddies, cos the stall had sold out.

I also added some Tim Holtz Ticket, which I have had for a while, but really suit the image.

I hope you like, I love it!!

Have a great evening.
