Black plus One at PCJ

Afternoon all, I’m here to share my card for the new challenge over at Paper Crafting Journey. The theme this time is:

BLACK PLUS ONE OTHER COLOUR

I already had this cute little Tilda coloured up as a Bumblebee (although I think she’s supposed to be a Dragonfly!) so it seemed an obvious choice to go with Black plus Yellow as my colour scheme.

I’ve followed this weeks fab sketch at Sketch and Stash and rotated it 90 degrees anti-clockwise:

Tilda has been coloured with a combination of ProMarkers and FlexMarkers and I’ve teamed her with some fabulous papers from the Echo Park Springtime paper pad and also from the Yellow Papermania Capsule Collection. I’ve also used black card from my stash, my nesties, a Tim Holtz border die, a mix of stamps from a Woodware set and a Paula Pascual Personal Impressions set, ribbon, flowers from WOC, hatpins from The Ribbon Girl, gems and pearls from Kanban, Memento Tuxedo Black and Dandelion inkpads and a Brilliance Graphite Black inkpad.

Don’t forget to head over to the challenge blog and see what colours the rest of the DT picked as their plus one.

CBGM – Anything that Flies Challenge

As you are reading this we are spending our last day in Ireland and this evening will getting the ferry from Cork back to Swansea, The ferry journey is long but is overnight so hopefully we should be able to get some sleep.

Ooh I do waffle sometimes…..anyhoo I am back with my final GDT card for Creations by Gill M  where the theme this week is ‘Anything that Flies’

I’ve used Bumblebee Tilda but wanted to colour her up in different colours to tie in with the gorgeous papers from First Edition. Inspired by Joanne Wardle I have stamped Tilda on Kraft card and coloured her in with Derwent  Cumberland Coloured Pencils, and considering this is my first attempt at colouring on Kraft I’m pleased with the way it turned out.
