Conway Tweetie

Hello! I got some time to play! And I could not resist my new Lawn Fawn papers and this gorgeous WSD stamp called Conway Tweetie!


Coloured with Promarkers and Flexmarkers. Inspired by the plaid paper.  Some Stampin' Up! Cardstock in Pool Party, Regal Rose and Crushed Curry.  And some random dies which are no longer in their packaging!!


I hope you like it!

So now, some time to play!

 

 

Hailey Hummingbird

Hello!  Busy enjoying being on holiday here today as the schools are off.  It's a shame the weather is so cold, wet and miserable but it's lovely and warm in the house!


A time for some mum and daughter crafting time.  She's busy with the polychromos at the moment, and doing really well with them!  I might need to buy more as there are some obvious gaps in the range the set of 60 offers.


I've been playing with my new Whipper Snapper Designs stamp called "Hailey Hummingbird".  I've stuck with the colours used on the image that comes with the stamp for this first attempt.

The swirls in the background are white on white and my photo skills are lacking!

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges;

Flowers for you

Hi!  Well, it's Friday again and another week has disappeared!
I've been playing with my Copics again with this little guy from Whipper Snapper.   I never think to make get well cards but this greeting from my Tim Holtz set just seemed to fit the with look in his eyes and the flowers!

Hi!  It's Wednesday!  Another week is disappearing!!
I hope you are having a good week! 
It's cold and wet here, and now trying to snow.


 This is one of the benefits of looking through old stash... I found one of my most favourite stamps from Whipper Snapper called "Mouse with Flowers". I've used Copics to colour him.


The greeting is from Tim Holtz "Crazy Talk".


I've kept this card really simple and limited the colours.  I'm going to enter this one in the Incy Wincy Designs challenge "White with a splash of colour"

Have a good week!

Swing Monkey

Hi!  It's Friday!  First working week of 2016 now complete and it's time to relax.  Still continuing with water colouring for the moment I thought I would have a go at this Whipper Snapper stamp called Swing Monkey.  I've used Tim Holtz Distress Markers to colour him.

I'm entering this card in "Anything Goes" at the Brown Sugar Challenge Blog.

Hope you have a lovely weekend!

Birthday Beagle

The challenge ...  to make a male card and it has to be anything BUT square!  I found this challenge over at Cardz 4 Guyz.  I had to try it as I'm very much in the habit (when I am crafting!) is to make all my cards square, and to avoid anything other than female birthdays or general good wishes.  So I thought I would give this a try with Birthday Beagle from Whipper Snapper.  Coloured with Lyra Aquacolor crayons.  And using a teepee card as a base.

The teepee is made from three 10cm x 10cm squares of cardstock (Stampin' Up! Island Indigo).  The balloons are on thin strips of acetate so they can move. I used a Signo Uniball white gel pen just to highlight his nose and the shine on the balloons.
