Faerie Marci in the Garden

Hi all, hope you are all keeping well, another busy week here and another scheduled post.

For my inspiration this week over at the Mad for Markers Store Blog I have made this one layer card using this beautiful image Faerie Marci, from LaLa Land Crafts and is available from the M4M Store here.  I have wanted to try and make it look like she is fluttering around in the garden, I originally wanted to colour a little pond but a little to ambitious for me lol!  Maybe in a year or two lol!

Two closer looks to show the added spica, couldn't show it all with one photo lol!

This one shows the her tight, shoes and some of her wings better

Hi all, hope you are all well, things have been a little busy here so not had much time for blogging but will be catching up with you all soon.

First I would like to spread the word from Dawny's blog who is asking crafters to knit these special knitted jumpers and beanies for babies in India (called the newspaper babies) full details on her blog.  So Rosanna and I got our knitting needles out and this is the set I made and we are still knitting Rosanna's set together (working from each end of the ball of wool lol!) which hopefully will be finished soon.  So girls if you have time please get those needles out. 

Here is Annabel modelling the Jumper and Beanie

Here is what the look like off the model

Now onto my inpsiration over at the Mad for Markers Store Blog I would like to show you this wonderful fun image from LaLa Land 'Hunny Bunny Marci' I was lucky to win her in Karen's Easter Candy, but she is available from the Store here. 

Rosanna and I were crafting and the Big Shot came out.  Rosanna had a go at embossing alsorts of things and embossed the purple foil paper from her Easter Egg for me, I then glued it to some card (very carefully lol).

Today I would like to show you another 6 fold card I have made using Ballerina Marci, available here in the Mad for Markers Store.  Our New Mad for Markers Challenge this month is to use your R's and/or RV's.

The ribbon on the cute charm was coloured using RV00 and RV02 to create two shades of pink, I have used the Midnight Madness Monthly Sketch for inspiration.

 Kindyglitz the pink edge and added rhinestones and pearls (some coloured using RV02 and RV04)

on the inside I have added various flowers, rhinestones, pearls and the beautiful recipe sentiment from LOTV, I was very lucky to win a 10.00 pound voucher from my gorgeous blog buddy Lorraine, THANKYOU!  I do have more some LOTV goodies to play with lol!

A closer look at the sentiment, also cut some ribbon to get 'Princess"
