Gingerbread Lucy

Evening All! I have been a big fan of CC Designs for years, in fact they were some of the first images I owned when I started colouring, so when I saw some of my crafty friends using some of the newer images I knew I had to have a play.

So here is a Christmas card I have made using Gingerbread Lucy

I have seen this one coloured up like a gingerbread which looked so cute, but I really wanted to give her a bright fun outfit.

And I just had to add a touch of sparkle on her hair and dress bows.

Supplies: 

• Image: Gingerbread Lucy Digital Stamp from CC Designs
• Colouring Medium: Spectrum Noir Original Markers
• colours to follow tomorrow as I’m sat in bed typing this lol
• Card: Kraft Card, Sheena’s Stamping Card and Copic X-Press It Blending Card

Little Mama

Evening all! Just a quick post as I’m super tired and I have had an icky headache all day and I think it’s just about time for a warm bath and then bed.

It’s my turn on the Digi Bells Blog today and I’ve shared a card using Little Mama:

I have got myself a bit addicted to a book and a TV programme at the moment and although I have been colouring I haven’t really had Mr Mojo’s company when trying to create an actual card….hence the CAS card!

Supplies:

• Image: Little Mama from Elisabeth Bell 
• Colouring Medium: Copic
• DP: Pebbles Inc.
• Card:
• Stamps: Paula Pascual Double Saying Clear Stamp Set from Personal Impressions
• Ink: Archival ‘Jet Black’ Inkpad and Spun Sugar Distress Inkpad
• Dies & Punches: Spellbinders Label 4 Dies
• Embellishments:  Paper Flower

Wryn Floating Along

Morning All. I’m just getting ready to do the school run. I think some schools have already broken up for the summer holidays but my eldest has today and tomorrow left before we can relax a little and take a break from the routine.

Anyhoo, it’s time for Tiddly Tuesday over at the Tiddly Inks Challenge Blog and we have a new challenge for you.  Our theme for the next fortnight is Summer Song, so we want you to pick a summery tune and use it as inspiration for your card.

I went quite cheesy and picked Summer Holiday by Cliff Richard. My card is definitely something I would love to be doing on holiday but I don’t think it will be warm enough where we are heading in a couple of weeks……North Wales!!

I have used one of Christy’s newer images and this is Wryn Floating Along. Anyone who knows me knows I love cute characters and Wryn is one of my all time faves. I think this Wryn may just top the list.

Inspired by Miss Alyce over at Kit & Clowder I have been trying to colour up some little background scenes for my digis. There were already some artist drawn lines for the waves which I extended and I’m pretty pleased with the result.

Supplies:

• Image: Wryn Floating Along  by Tiddly Inks 
• Colouring Medium: Copics
• DP: Pebbles Inc.
• Card: Pale Blue and Aqua Card and Copic X-Press It Blending Card
• Sentiment: Doubles Sayings Stamp Set by Paula Pascual for Personal Impressions
• Ink: Walnut Stain Distress Inkpad
• Dies & Punches: Flower Die (magazine freebie), Marianne Anja Oval Die, Small Circle Punch and an EK Success Border Punch
• Embellishments: Glitter Glue
