Holly Fairy


It's the last challenge of 2014 at the Graph'it Markers challenge and we have a nice easy theme of
Winter Wishes.
I have used an Aurora Wings image Holly Fairy, so cute and I have coloured her in with my Graph'it Markers. All the layers have been cut out using my Woodware paper trimmer, that can use different blades, using the scalloped blade some cut with the scallop in and some out. I think that makes it a bit more interesting to use.


I have die cut the holly leaves and used gems for the berries. The Happy Christmas greeting is die cut. Then a bit of 3D snow added to the fur trim on her jacket. 

Happy Christmas to you all x x

Pink Bee Fairy



Its challenge time at Through the Craft Room Door and as usual it's anything goes.

The image is from Stitchy Bear and I have coloured it with Graph'it Markers
I have then die cut the image and frame using Spellbinders Dies.



I have cur the swirly borders using a Memory Box die and added some paper roses and punched leaves. A little bit of glitter highlight the wings and edge the flowers. Then a simple birthday greeting to complete.

Pretty Miss India


Welcome to the last Challenge at the Crafting Cafe and the theme is 
Your favourite things of 2014.

I've used 2 or 3 of my favourite things on this card so it was quite fun to do.


Firstly I have coloured in the image with my polychromos pencils. Although I have had them for quite a while I have only relly got back to using them this year and I have really enjoyed that. The image is a Besties.


Some of my favourite colours are oranges and golds, warm autumn colours I have used for the background.


Then some very pretty embelishments. A punched border in gold, a tassled brocade trim, some sequined shapes and a lovely bow with a metal flower in the centre. They looked very Indian type decoration and perfect to complete this card. I hope you like it too.

Pink Ppinky


This is my card as GDT for Crafting by Design for December. I have used a Ppinky Doll image and I have coloured her with Polychromo pencils.


The back ground has been stamped and coloured with distress inks, using swirl and butterfly stamps. 
There are die cut leaves and hearts, also I have die cut the image and layer.


I was really pleased with the colouring on this image, I have been using these pencils a fair bit recently. Please pop over to the challenge and see all the other lovely inspiration,

Africa


It's time for a new challenge at Through the Craft Room Door and this is my project. The image is from Little Claire one of our sponsors for this week.


For the background I have used Bo Bunny Zebra patterned paper and the image has been die cut with a Creative Expressions frame die.


I have then die cut lots of leaves and grasses using dies from Memory box, Marianne, 
I think it makes quite a striking card in black and white. 
It's always Anything Goes for the TTCRD challenge so please join in and you may win a nice prize.
