Field of Flowers...

This weeks My Partner in Crafting Crime is to use an Uncoloured Image so I thought I would give this a go...So using the sketch from The Sugar Bowl #61 (Theme - Love) and an yet to be inked Gorjuss stamp here is the card.....

The image is Poppy Fields and I have stamped this with Emboss ink and the heat embossed it using black powder (just to stop it looking so flat). The papers are from Stampin Up's Sweet Pea stack and I've made little rolled roses using a circle nestie and cutting it into a spiral. A few pearls from the hobby house are added around the flowers. It's finished off with a simple sentiment printed off from PC ( font is Anke Print).

I'm entering it into the following challenges....

My Partner in Crafting Crime -  Uncoloured Image 
The Sugar Bowl - #61 Sketch with optional Love/Wedding Theme
Diva's in Design - Florals
A Spoonful of Sugar - 154 Flower Power

Hope you like it.... I think I quite like the non-coloured effect

Little Goth Girl

I thought it was time I used another one of the Gorjuss stamps I got a few weeks ago and I really wanted to have a try at "Black" hair so I chose to use Little Goth  Girl.  I've used the sketch from The Sugar Bowl #60 with an optional extra of Birthdays.  I'm also entering this into Divas By Design #2 One for the Girls and I Love Promarkers Pearls. Here is the card....

The image is Sugar Nellie " Little Goth Girl" and is coloured in with promarkers ( Black, Cool grey 4,5, meadow, apple, almond, sunkissed pink, lipstick, crimson), the paper is what was left  from a card this week from Shabby Princess ( see I'm trying to be good and not create anymore scraps). The red card stock is co-ordinations and I've used nestie label 12 to cut out the white.  The lace is from The Ribbon Girl and pearls are from the hobby house, the sentiment is LOTV.

Hope you like it....

Thinking of You

This weeks challenge on Cupcake Crafts is "Gingham and Roses". Now for those who know me, I very rarely use paper roses on any of my cards, so I have tried to incorporate them in a different way... using an embossing folder from Sizzix ( Just hope they count as roses lol). Anyhow, enough waffling, here is the card....

Image is Sugar Nellies "Sitting Down" Gorjuss Girl, another one that arrived last week.  I've coloured it in with my trusty promarkers (Cinnamon, cocoa, walnut, lavender, orchid, amethyst, almond, dusky pink). I've embossed panels with the embossing folder ( I'll try and find out the name if anyone is interested) and it's finished off simply with some gingham ribbon from the Ribbon Girl (thanks Andrea/Mary you are amazing...really can't beat your customer service).  I've used the sketch from this weeks Paper Pretties challenge #152 and I'm also entering it into this week's I Love Promarkers - Song Title as "James - Sit Down".....

Hope you all had a good weekend...

Tomorrow Holds Wonderful Things for a Princess...

Well more new stash arrived in the post today (naughty me) so I had to use it lol. This time they were Sugar Nellie Gorjuss stamps which I have had my eye on for a while.  So much for my stash amnesty - I'm now amending this to be just paper, ribbon, embellie's and the biggest of all.... Digi anything (please don't bring out anything new Pink Petticoat)....
I'm going to see how long I can keep this up for, but I'm aiming for end of July lol (Yes Lizy I will be able to do it..... honestly) and the new LOTV stamps are excluded completely from this amnesty lol.... Anyhow enough of my waffling, here is today's card...

The image is Sugar Nellie's Party Princess and I've coloured it in with promarkers (Cocoa, Tan, Cinnamon, Walnut, Almond, Antique Pink, Dusky Rose, Pale Pink, Buttercup, Carmine). I've followed the sketch from The Sugar Bowl challenge #58 this week (but oops I didn't finish it in time doh) as well as adding the theme of button with some lovely ones I picked up from The Ribbon Girl.  The DPs are from First Editions Love Letters Stack.  The sentiment is from LOTV and it's finished off with a little twine and a touch of glitter.

I'm also entering this into the following challenges:

Passion For Promarkers - Fit for a Princess
Diva's By Design - #1 Anything Goes
My Mums Craft Shop - #4 Cute & Girly
Top Tip Tuesday - Open

Hope you like it...
