A Little Late! ...

Hello Guys, Sorry I haven't posted for ages! but here I am back with a card, now I think I have probably missed it as I am so late in putting this on tonight but I would like my card to be entered for the passion for promarkers challenge this week which is a sketch and any colours of your choice. I really enjoyed making this card and I hope you'll enjoy looking at it :D! so here it is..


The sentiment reads: 'Hope You Have A Toad-ally Cool Birthday!' as it is a toad on the front of the card, get it? haha.. oh well: I found it funny& rather witty for me:)!


My Recipe:

(Well this is going to be fun& games as i was using old stuff after I had a craft clearout!)
Image: recieved from an imgae swap, I think!
Colouring: Promarkers-I will update this with the colours soon, as I'm at grannys and my mum has ran off wtih all her promarkers.
Papers:
From a pack 'Cardmaker's Creativity Pack, The Ultimate Collection'

Flowers:
Were punched from leftover bits of my paper with a brad stuck through them.

Sentiment:
Printed off the dreaded old computer!! (well its not old, but thats what my granny calls it, just 'cos she cant use it- heehee!)


Thank you so much for looking, I hope you like it!!

Big Hugs,

Good afternoon everyone !
Hope you are all well..
and yes I am back: twice in one day!!! how have I managed it?!

But I was blog hopping this morning and found this amazing sketch from Crafts For Eternity and I absolutley loved it! So I decided that was it.. I was doing it. Then I don't know what happened but I thought I was doing the Just Magnolia challenge so changed my image from a Sugar Nellie to a Magnolia.. then I coloured it all and stuck it down and finished off the card then I realised that this sketch was for the other challenge and not the Just Magnolia one. So I have started a new card with their fabulous sketch...but back to this one.

This is the sketch:

Good morning everyone!
Im on rather early this morning.. couldn't sleep much last night 'cos I kept thinking about posting this card! I really wanted to take part in the crafty monkeys challenge this week and couldnt wait for a new one to be posted.. though when it came up- it was 'One for the men' and i can't stand making cards for boys or men.. all my ideas are mostly pink focused!
But I was determined to give it a go.. So I started blog hopping for inspiration and found that the Simon Says Challenge and this week their challenge was 'One for the men' too! Wait for it.. So I continued hopping along on my travels and found that Friday Sketchers had a lovely sketch that would fit well with my card for their challenge this week.. and none of these blogs say you can't combine their challenges with others so I think I have myself a 3 challenge combo!
I would like this card to be entered into:
1. Friday Sketchers - Sketch.
2. Crafty Monkeys - One for the boys/men.
3. Simon Says - One for the boys/men.

Here it is..


and my colouring....


and I didn't decorate the inside as such.. but I did stamp and mount a wee greeting for it, so here is the greeting i used..


Card Recipe:

Image: Freebie Digi Download 'Cool Dude' from Curly Girly Me.
Coloured With Pro Markers.
and
A bit of white gel pen for a shadow.
Papers: Blue&Green stripey stuff from my stash.
and
Just some light blue, dark blue and brown CS from my stash too!
Embellishments: Some tiny little blue pearls (kanban)
and
Some nice light blue ribbon from my stash.


I hope you like it& please leave comments if you have a spare moment

Hello Everyone..
I really really liked the look of the Sugar Bowl sketch this week, which is a sketch by Marlene; with a 'Please Include' of buttons, so I thought I would give it a go. Now its quite late and my mums camera doesn't work very well at night, especially when she does nothing but use it all day.. by the end of the night I think it gets quite tired. So my pictures are a bit dark, and my buttons look red.. but really they are dark pink.

So here it is..

and my image close-up..



Card Recipe:
Image: ' Gorjuss Sitting'coloured with distress inks, then white gel pen on some bits for a shadow. Distress ink colours:
Tattered Rose for Skin
Worn Lipstick for Dress
Frayed Burlap for Hair
Worn Lipstick and Mustard Seed for Tights
and
Mustard Seed for little flower in her hair.
Papers: Pink cloudy stuff from my stash (well my Grannys!) for the very back bit
Empress Cream from the Porcelain pack for the next bit
Some pink and yellow bazzil CS from my stash for mounting
Yellow CS from my stash ran through the bug with 'Swiss Dots' for the strip down the middle
and
'Bumble bee daydream' CS (doodlebug) for the 3 little strips at the bottom.
Embellishments: The flowers and buttons used are from my stash (well Grannys!).



I hope you like it, Please leave comments if you have enough time.
