Balloon Birthday

Hi all,
I am back to do another challenge. This one is happening now over at Bizzy Becs Online Store Blog the challenge is a Colour Inspiration of Chocolate, Mint, Cream & Raspberry. The prize is some brand new Spellbinders die set floral doily motifs, so join in the fun.
Ok on to my entry, this colour combination is a real challenge! The image is a Magnolia stamp of Tilda with a balloon. I coloured her with copic markers (see below for list ) the cardstock is bazzill and the patterned paper is from collections elements - Baroque. I used Nesties Oval and a MS punch.

The cardstock is a very deep brown, it looks almost black in the photos. I found these colours very challenging, but I am pleased with the final result. I enjoyed every minute of making this card.

Sweet Baby

Hi, over at Flourishes Betty Wright is hosting the FTTC #98 Challenge the request is to use pearls.
Pearls are one of my favourite things so I just had to enter, for this card I used the baby bassinette  from the beautiful set called Baby Love available at Flourishes. I used copic markers RV000, E50 and W1 to colour the image and craft concepts embossing folder called budding vine and of course pearls.

Christmas Friend

Hi Everyone,
I have made this card for a friend of mine, no challenges, I just thought I would show you this one.





The stamp is Flourishes Christmas Wreath, I love this stamp and all the elements to colour, I used the Ranger white pen on the pine cones & berries, and a gold gel pen on the bow. The embossing folder is cuttlebug victoria and spellbinder fancy tags. The gold ribbon is from a two dollar shop.

Here is a close up of the Wreath, sorry about the glare!
These are the copic markers used to colour the image.
Ok that's all for today, there is some fantastic candy on offer at the moment, check my side bar for details.
