A busy few day blogging. If you're after the Make it Crafty Blog Hop you'll find it a few posts further down xxx
I've had a colouring day today and made two things I've been meaning to make for ages.
The first is an insert for my mobile phone case. I've had this planned for ages, but had to delay it when my phone broke and I had to source a replacement (which was a different shape & size).
I used Coloring Lucy from Saturated Canary. She's the custom digi I ordered a few months ago and I love her to bits. I cheekily added my name (handy for if I loose my phone) and an 's' to the 'Live' sign to make it just right for the phone case.
Here it is coloured.
And here it is on my phone. I've just slipped it inside the clear gel phone case I've got. It's suffering a little from a wrinkled bottom - but hey - so many of us do - so I'm not worrying :P
It's difficult to capture on camera but I added a wash of Wink of Stella to the white space so it gives it a touch of shimmer.
I'm so pleased I've done it at last. I LOVE it :D

The second creation is one I've had in mind since the sad news of Alan Rickman passing.
He was an amazing actor & perfect in so many of his roles - not least Professor Snape in Harry Potter. I decided to create a tribute to him using Niamh Make Believe coloured as Lily Potter & the beautiful 'Always' tribute that Sam of Autumn Moon Designs created when the news was announced.
Ideally I'd mount it in a black frame, but this white one was on the only one I have at the moment.
Here's a close up of Niamh Make Believe coloured as Lily Potter. Now I know Lily doesn't wear glasses, but hopefully with her hair colour, Griffindor colours & of course 'those eyes' she reminds everyone of Lily enough. With the history of her & Snape it just had to be her.
This is the beautiful tribute designed by Sam of Autumn Moon Designs. I don't think my printer and camera did it justice as it's just beautiful. I added some Wink of Stella to it to give it a bit of shimmer & magic
