Just Magnolia

Happy Friday! :O)
Hope your all enjoying the evening. Well, i've managed to make a card for this weeks Just Magnolia Challenges which is a fab sketch by the uber talented Tab.
( see above)
I wanted to go really bright with this card and i knew that my new Citrus Pack from DCWV would be perfect. Nikki, is currently selling them in her shop, Bunny-Zoes Crafts, they have a fab range of gorgeous designer Paper to chose from including the delish new BG Pads. So why don't you pop over there and have a browse!


They are really glittery- not that you can tell from my rubbish picture lol. I've never used glittery paper before, and i think it looks really pretty!

Materials:
Paper and Cardstock- DCWV: Citrus Stack, avaliable from here.

Image: Magnolia, new Summer Collection.

Embellies: White Raffia Lace, perfect pearls, and white peel-offs.

For this card, i cut out the image of Tilda leaning, embossed the back so i would curl, and popped it on top of the strawberrys with silocone glue. I coloured the images with Promarkers and sakuras. I made the flowers myself, from punched cardstock and white peeloffs. :O)

The Inside:

I also decorated the inside for a change, with another Tilda, some more paper and a few gems.
Thanks for looking,

Pink and Girly

Materials:
Paper and Cardstock: Dovecraft and PM

Image: The Greeting Farm coloured with whispers, promarkers, and sakuras

Embellishments: Prima and Petaloo flowers, the spacers and raffia lace available from here.

Hi Everyone,

Hope your are all O.K.

Wow what a fantastic day, the sports were fantastic, and i've still got 6 more days to go! I still managed to make a card though, and i thoroughly enjoyed it. I picked out lots of girly colours of embellishments! :O)

I've used some gorgeous White Raffia Lace, and beautiful Silver Spacers from Bunny Zoes Crafts. I used a mixture of flowers, as i thought the dark pink petaloos matched the paper exactly, but i also wanted a lighter shade.

I am entering my card into this weeks: Papertake Weekly Challenge which is a colour combo.

I have chosen, pink, lilac, and white.

I also recived this fabulous award from Avril and Cheryl aswell.

Thank you so much girls, i really appreciate you thinking of me! xx

Thanks for dropping by, please leave a comment if you have time, i LOVE reading them! :O)

Good Evening,
I broke up from school today, i was really looking foward to the Summer Holidays, but i've been crying all afternoon. I'll really miss my Primary School... and today made me think of the 8 years i'd spent there...

Materials:
Paper- K+Co
Image- C.C Designs... i have to get this stamp, i love it lol! x Coloured with whispers and sakuras
Embellishments- Perfect Pearls, Prima flowers, and woodware brads.
Tools: MSBP

Anyway.... { lol } onto the card! I'm entering it into this weeks Roses On Paper Challenge, which is summer! I think my card is fairly summery, i tried to keep to a light colour combo! :O)
Can you tell?.... i've edited the photo in a Lexmark Programe. The image is sharper and i blured the background... the original lighting was terrible, so i played around with that too.

My GDT package came from Nikki today, so i'll get some cards done for you to see soon. I'm on a sports course all this week though... so fingers crossed i'll have some spare time! xx

Hi,
Hope your all enjoying the last of the weekend, and guess what? I've still got 2 more days of school before i break up for the Summer hols! :O(
I've been really busy this afternoon with all my orders, and i thought i'd share a few of them.

My next two cards are just Anniversarys, i haven't followed any challenges.

Materials:
Paper and Cardstock- K+Co
Embellishments- Perfect pearls, prima flowers, and buttons from stash.

Ok... so i've got a felling that every card i make from now on is going to have prima flowers on... so be prepared lol! :O)
I tried to kepp this fairly clean and simple, i like the textured white card, and it's a shame to cover it all up with papers.

My next card has been made using lots of scraps of BG papers, i cut a 6.5CM square out of 4 diferent patterns inked the edges, and viola.....

Materials:
Paper and Cardstock- BG + PM
Image- Unknown- sorry! Coloured Whispers and Promarkers, highlighted with a white gel pen.
Embellies: Prima flowers, woodware brads, perefct pearls, and a PM peel-off.

I hope you like them.... i've got plently more to show you tommorow!
Thanks for all your fabulous comments.

Good Evening,

I've just had a fantastic afternoon. My dad took me to a shop near Tamworth called Forever Cards and Crafts they have their own website too.
I managed to get hold of some gorgeous Prima flowers while i was there... i've looked everywhere for them, and the Glitterpot always seems to be sold out lol. I also got my hands on some perfect pearls which you can see down the side of my sentiment.
I am entering this card into the Penny Black Saturday Challenge which is Soft and Sweet.
This little girls is sooooooooooo sweet, and i have used very soft and subtle colour tones.
The image has been coloured with whispers, promarkers and highlighted witha white gel-pen.
I'm really proud of my colouring, i think i'm finally improving.

Friday Sketchers.

Materials:
Paper and Card- PM and BG Offbeat
Image- The Greeting Farm, coloured with whispers and Pro-Markers
Embellishments- Card Candy, Prima flowers, brad, pencil topper, and ribbon from stash.

Morning,
Sorry for the lack of posting, i've been so busy lately with loads of card orders ( 13 THIS WEEK ALONE!) and the teachers handmade gifts! I haven't had chance to follow any challenges. Until i came across Friday Sketchers, and i knew i had to use the layout- it was great! :O)
I've just bourght a few items from Joanna Sheen, i've never shopped there before, but it's great for adhesive, and embellishments, because the P+ P is free!
One off the items that accidently fell into my cart was a single promarker- blush. I can't find a whisper pen that suits the skin colour, and this pen is fantastic. I might just buy myself a new set of Pro-markers....

Anway got to go, school awaits me!
