Snowman Have not had much time for blogging but managed to colour and make a card with one the images from Lady Anne's Christmas Challenge . The two free images are from Anji's Antics  and I decided to do the snowman first. He was coloured using Jasart water colour pencils and love the soft look it gave. The snowdrifts are just torn pieces of cardstock, coloured and mounted on a piece of white card then mounted on a white card base. The stamped sentiment is from Dark room Door set Yuletide Vol 1.

This card  was done for the CDAC Anything goes Challenge  and I had some fun with this one. I love the image from Sliekj Stamps  and it just cried out to be cute and girlie.  The PP is from Fancypants designs 6x6 Beach Babe pad, lace WIP , and flowers are from my stash. The leaves Martha Stewart and Carl punches. The large blue flower in the back nearly ended up in the bin as it has been floating around my desk for ages. Just trimmed the bottom to fit and another thing recycled. The image is coloured with copics and used glossy accents on the cupcakes. Copics : Mouse: R000, RV21, E70, E77, E74. Cupcakes: RV13, R81, E33, E37. Ground:  E43, E55, E57. Shadow: YR20. Sprinkles: Sakura Gelly Roll pens in variety of colours.

All the new challenges have started over on CDAC  and this is my card for the  1-2-3 Challenge. We had to have 1flower, 2 design papers, 3 pieces of bling. My image, carnation from Nina B was printed twice, coloured with copics, then just the flower was fussy cut out.  Spellbinders circle die used to cut one out and mounted the flower on top. This was then mounted on a Nellie Snellen patterned circle die. PP is from Prima Botanicals 6 X 6 pad, CS from DCWV, Kaiser bling and lace from stash.   Copics: R81, R85, R89  G82, G85.

O little Town of bethehem My second card for this challenge  is also from Crafting with Jack and is a digital image. It is coloured with prisma pencils and mounted on CS . I printed the image twice, once on white then yellow CS and cut out the large star and sentiment and mounted them with dimensionals. Thought it needed just a little something more and this palm tree brad seemed perfect. Sorry but I didn't take note of the pencils.

Poinsettias and Candle . In my quest to have my Christmas cards done well before Christmas I am participating in Lady Anne's Progressive Challenge. The first sponsor is Crafting with Jack and I love how this poinsettia digital image turned out. It is coloured with copics and the sentiment is from GinaK  holiday greetings. The PP is from the reject shop, high tea doily from MFT  , Kaiser CS and ribbon by creative corner.   Copics : P oinsettias: R14, 27, 29, 46, YR23, E07.  Leaves: G24, 28, 29. Berries: R46. Candle: E50, 51, 53, 55. Flame : YR16, R27. Shadows : Y15, Goooo, E71. 

My card today is for the challenge on Tiddly Inks . The images are Magda from Dragon Friend stamp set and suitcases. I coloured the image with copics, mounted it on DCWV textured CS, PP is designed by Rachel Harper, Let's fly Away, for Quick cards. Lace from stash, computer generated sentiment and spellbinders dies completes the card. Copics used: Skin: E000, E11, E51,  R20. Hair: R02, R05, E07, E09. Dress: BG15, BG23, BG49, BG53.

Water-coloured this stamp from Stamp-it ages ago and finally made a card with it. All the CS is left over pieces, used Martha Stewart border punch, Kaiser bling and organza ribbon. The sentiment is computer generated.
