Left overs

I love my papermaina signature range papers and when there are little bits left over I just cant bear to throw them away.  So today I made a card using the odd bits that normally go into my daughters craft box, not this time!!!!


I have used a gorgeous image, its a gorgeous Tilda that was sent to me by the lovely Cheryl, it only arrived yesterday and I just had to use it straight away, its been a long time since I have used a tilda image and they are so wonderful to work with! 

The Papers are Paper mania, image coloured with water colour pencils, pro markers and gel pen to do faux stitching detail, polymer flowers, pearl beads from my stash.

She is with out a sentiment at the moment as I do not know what she will be used for as there are many options.  I hope you like her as much as I do.

Have a lovely crafty weekend!!!

My entry for Incy Wincy Challenge 26

Here is the card I was working on yesterday but gave up on!  I sorted the problem I was using the wrong size card as a base and it all just looked wrong!

The challenge over are Incy Wincy this week is Colour Me Wonderful, use your favourite colouring medium.  At the moment I am back to using my water colour pencils and I am loving it!  I love my pro markers but some times its nice to use some thing different.  I would love to get some prisima pencils so they are going on my birthday list!!!



I have used a lovely image which I believe is a Sarah Kay this was sent to me by the very lovely Cheryl.  The flowers are from hobby craft, beads from caroles crafts, heart embellishment is from my stash, so is the ribbon.   The sentiment was also sent to me by Cheryl and I believe it is one of Allissa Design Cabin digi downloads that you can buy Here!  I have used my paper mania chalks around the edges.

Thanks for stopping by and thank you tto so many of you that have popped by this past few weeks and left such lovely comments, you are all stars!!!!

Spring Westie for 2 challenges.

Here is my latest card, I am working on another but I cant get it to go right so I thought I would take a break and show you this one and then maybe my brain may work and I will be able to finish the other!  Here is my Spring Westie.


This Stamp is a little claires stamp and I love it, I don't get to use it a lot so when 2 challenges came along that involved animals I thought this was my chance.

I have used some papers from the dasiy and dandelion range, they are from last year, they have dasisys all over them as you can see.  The ribbon is new and has daisys on too.  I have coloured with Pro markers and water colour pencils.  Gems and flowers are from my stash.

I am going to enter this card into:
THE CRAFTY PAD challenge 54 - Animals
 PAPERPLAY challenges - week 2 - furry friends

Thanks for popping by, and thank you for your comments.
