TIMES GONE BY

 Today my card features a digital image from Crafts and Me I have had this particular image for many years but I think this is the first time I have used it ,she is called Art Deco Rita.  I have coloured her with a mix of markers, the papers are from an old paper pad that I found which in turn dictated the colour theme, I used gold mirror card and used an 8x8 embossing folder I fussy cut out the image and mounted her with silicone glue I added some lace and a stamped sentiment.

IT'S A BEAUTIFUL DAY

 For picking flowers and taking a bike ride.........I have two cards today the first is a card I made quite awhile back but never posted I have a drawer full of stencils, but I have two favourites that I use whenever I can the first is the brick wall the second is the Honeycombe on this occasion I have used the brick wall, I have used a Tiddly Ink image called Big Wheels Turning I used a mix of markers to colour the image, I used the stencil and found some card stock with a brick effect as well the pink paper is from my stash I then added a small crochet flower and stamped sentiment

I would like to enter this into the challenge at 

ALLSORTS - USE A STENCIL OR MASK 


My second card I made quite recently using a Whimsy digital image by Chrissie Armstrong called Fistfull of Flowers, I have coloured her with Promarkers, I used one of my Tonic Oval dies to cut her out and frame her, I used HunkyDory Peach Adorable Scoreable card stock as the A5 base card, I used my Craft Buddy embosser to emboss the lines (if you look closely you may see them) I added an odd piece of patterned paper then added Hobby House die cut flowers and butterfly finally I added a stamped sentiment and small resin flower

I have been doing a lot of colouring over the last several months and have managed to make some cards but not always.  I have loads of coloured images and try to create something with them when I can, obviously some of the cards are themed for Easter /Spring which is why I am posting quite a bit at the moment also my main objective with the items I make is to try and support as many challenges as I can I hate to see so many close down after so much work has been put in to running them I realise that in today's climate with all the rules and regs it is getting more and more difficult for DT's and the administrators I have always admired the people that battle on year after year, month after month I would like to say a big thank you to all.

Unfortunately to the deterioration of my eyesight I am only able to use images with not too much fiddly detail,  I am due to visit the eye hospital the middle of March hopefully the work they do will improve my eyesight.  I have started clearing a lot of my craft stuff as I am not sure if I will be able to use it in the future, in fact, there is quite a bit of stuff that I have either never used or not used for a long time so a good clear out will be good.

Take care everyone
