PRETTY WOMEN

I have always loved seeing crafters use these stamps from Prima, so much so that I bought myself a couple, in fact I have just ordered a Christmas one that I hope to get early next week. 
I have kept this card very clean and simple I stamped the image 3 times onto Linen card stock with Momento Black Tuxedo ink, I only used a touch of colour for the hair and skin using my Graph it Markers, I then decided to paper piece them using some left over scraps from my SU dotty paper, I stamped the sentiment and the sun, which I also paper pieced, I mounted the linen card onto black card then adhered it to a 6 x 6 scalloped white card
I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:

BALLERINA MINE #2

Today the sun is shinning but still a little windy and not as warm as it has been but I am certainly not complaining about that, lol.
I mentioned in my post on Sunday that I was going to post my second Ballerina card and here it is, I chose a completely different colorway than my first card.  I was inspired by the song 'Ballerina Mine' by Nat King Cole, I used Graph It Markers for the image, the papers are from Elusive Images (now Chocolate Baroque) I have had them for ages and ages but the pattern and colours fitted what I wanted for the image, I added some yellow organza ribbon and bow, a rose cluster resin flower, pink flower and a sentiment.
I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:
I would like to thank everyone for their comments on my previous postings I really appreciate them, I hope that you have enjoyed your visit, please come back soon.

LET THE SUN SHINE IN

Today I have a card to share with you that features one of the new Sherri Baldy Fancy Pants digi images, this one is called 'Saturday Afternoon Stroll, and I have coloured her with Graph It Markers.
I mounted the image onto both pink and yellow card stock, I used my Dimension Stamps for the sentiments around the edges of the image, the inks I used were from SU.
I used yellow gingham card stock and pink happy birthday card stock both from Anna Marie Designs, I then punched some wee little flowers and used Viva Decor Yellow pearls for their centers. I have kept this one quite clean and simple so the card and image could take centre stage.
I took a photo of the main card from 2 different angles due to the light changing not sure which one is best.

Closer look at the image

I want to thank you for visiting my blog I hope that you have enjoyed yourself you are all welcome back anytime.

BALLERINA MINE

Well Hurricane Bertha decided to bypass the Gloucestershire area but we have had torrential rain and a few claps of thunder but all is well.  
I had major problems with Blogger yesterday it just would not open up any of the blogs but it appears that today it feels like playing ball so I thought I would post one of my 'Ballerina' cards that I have made over the last few days.  I noticed on Facebook that Morgans Fae World had a special 25% off her images so I treated myself to the set of 'Dancers' available HERE
I chose the title Ballerina Mine as these images reminded me of the song by Nat King Cole.
I bought the set of four and have made cards with two of the images I will try and post the other one tomorrow.
I have used a colour combo of yellow and brown, the papers are SU Dotty paper all mounted onto Kraft card.  The image I coloured with Graph It Markers then used my 18ct Gold Leaf pen around the outside, I then mounted her onto both yellow and Kraft card, I punched the flower circles out with my SU punches and added a couple of resin Dahlia flowers, I added a sentiment that I got from Anna Marie Designs also some ribbon and yellow organza bow topped with a yellow button
I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:
Many thanks to all who have taken time out to visit my blog and to those who have left me a comment, I do try to repay everyone's kindness but it might take a little time so please bear with me as I know how lovely it is to receive comments from other crafters.
Have a lovely day.
