Back To School



It's been a wonderful year so far and to top it off I am extremely proud to announce I am now a

Sunshine Girl!!
I couldn't believe it when I was asked to join this amazing DT, Heather Valentin is an awesome artist and incredibly talented lady.
I am both honored and proud to be given this opportunity to work with and showcase her amazing work.

So on to my very first project for this amazing challenge blog........

Our theme this week is 'Fall Colours' and the image I have used is Zoe Back To School and she can be found here among Heather's New Release Digis







I have designed a cute little note pad/Jotter
Zoe has been coloured using copics and the scrabble tiles I have cut from a design sheet I have on my computer.
The flowers and leaves are die cut and the backing papers are from stock.
The note pad is held closed by a little magnet and there is a little slot for your pen or pencil on the side of the note pad.

I do hope you like her and don't forget we have some amazing prizes for our challenge winners

First prize - 5 Images (winner chosen by random)
Second Prize - 3 Images (winner chosen by random)

What A Cracker!

MIM CHALLENGE #161 WITH KENNY K DOWNLOADS

It's my most favorite time of the week it's MIM TIME!!

This week our sponsor is the amazing Kenny K Downloads

Our sponsor is generously offering our winner 5 Digis of their choice!

I have to say that I own a number of these digis myself, I just love the cheek each character has, they are full of personality and for this weeks challenge I have chosen to play with Elf Boy and Elf Girl







I have made the card in the shape of a Christmas cracker and have coloured the images using Pro Markers, the backing papers are from stock and the little present die cuts are quickutz and I've added a little bit of Sprinkles glitter glue for that extra glamour.

I'm rather chuffed at how this card turned out I think the card compliments the cheeky little Elf's just perfectly.

My lovely DT members have also created some beautiful inspirational work so pop over and take a peek you won't be disappointed and join in our fun linky and you may just be this weeks lucky winner.

Our wonderful sponsor this week is:



There are some amazing and unusual digis in Rick's store especially if like me you like to dabble in the darker side of stamping and enjoy using unusual images.

Rick is generously offering our winner 2 digis of their choice from his Etsy store.

I chose to play with Bewitching and this is the card I came up with




I have coloured the image using Copics and have distressed the edges of the papers using Tim Holtz Distress inks.
