Our sponsors are



Another simple card from me today but I am so chuffed with how this bear turned out, I wanted him to stand out! I have used "Teddy Frame" from Deedee's Digis and used Copics and the fluffy rag technique to colour him in. My song inspiration was "Hello" by Lionel Richie but as luck would have it, Adele's new song is also called Hello!


So now it's over to you! Sing yourself a card!

WINTER WONDERLAND

Hi everyone.
My colouring has not been fun recently ( bad eyes, and a very naughty E04!) so I thought I'd treat myself to a few new images from Sugar Nellie and see how it went colouring something a little different to my norm. I have used Reindeer Games for this card, coloured in with Copics and using a little alcohol on a rag to give her clothing a "fluffy" appearance (thanks to Kit and Clowder colouring classes!). The background papers are from Michele R Designs and I've added some Stickles for a little Christmas sparkle.
Hugs

ROCKET MAN

Hi everyone.
My second card of the day is my DT make for the new challenge over at The Crafter's Cafe and we are challenging you to "Create a Sky Scene"!
I have gone a little crazy with my Copics to create mine. Lots of colours ranging from black and greys, with some purples and blues added to create my night sky. I wanted a perfect moon so I die-cut a circle of white card, and I've used a Moloto marker to add stars.
The image is called "Retro Rocket" , coloured in with Cool Greys, and it's from Dr Digi's House of Stamps, one our many sponsors for this challenge.





So now it's over to you....let your creative juices flow and "Create a Sky scene"....day or night!
