SHE SELLS SEASHELLS

Hi lovely people!
It's been a Bank Holiday here in England, and my lovely hubby took our little girl down to our local fair (I don't like going- hate crowds!)....and my boy went out with his mates, so I've had a whole day to myself....CRAFT HEAVEN!
I've caught up with a few DT cards but this one is just for me. I've had the idea brewing since I got the freebie image of Heather Valentin on her Lacy Sunshine Facebook page...fell in love with this little mermaid as soon as I saw her!
For a change, I have used lots Polychromos to colour the image, together with some Promarkers. I die-cut some shell shapes to make the base card, adding some Frantage to both sides. I also die-cut the image and some little swirlies. The embellishments are quite simple; I always keep the offcut stems from mulberry flowers (just in case!) and I've used a few of those today to make little twirls, by twisting them around a wooden kebeb stick, and covering them in German Glass Glitter. The only other bitsies I have used are a few flowers, pearl string,cheesecloth and some flat-backed pearls. Here' a close-up of the image:

Hope you like it!

GOING GIRLY AT THE CRAFTER'S CAFE

Hi everyone.
My card today is my DT make for The Crafter's Cafe where the theme this week is "GIRLY". Easy as pie!
I have used a gorgeous image from Delicious Doodles, called "Blossom". I LOVE her!! Having had a few Copics slip into my craftroom in the last couple of weeks, I have used a combination of these and my Promarkers to colour her in. Did I say I LOVE her?! The base card is from Whichcraft and I've used yet more freebie papers layered up onto pink card. Simple embellishments of a few butterflies finish the card off.
We have two fabby sponsors this week:

Now it's over to you! Go GIRLY!

FLYING HIGH AT CFAS

Good morning! Hope you are all well.
My card today is my DT make for Crafting For All Seasons where the challenge is "Things with wings". We have the fab Lacy Sunshine as our sponsor and I've chosen to use an image called Truddi FruitFly Buggmee.
I've coloured the image in with Promarkers, going a bit wild with the hair again! I found some lovely strawberry ribbon in my craftroom when I tidied it up a few weeks ago, and wanted to use that, so I thought I'd have a go at a new card shape for me. I don't know what this design is called, I'll try and find a link for it later! The backing paper is a digi from Raspberry Road (I think) and the padded strawberry is from my stash.
Now it's over to you. Flutter or fly over and show us your crafty makes.

ICE QUEEN COMETH

Hi everyone. Thought I'd have a sit down and enter blogland for a bit. I started tidying up my computer desk this morning....three hours later, I've cleaned the whole room, top to bottom! Even washed the curtains! So I'm having a cuppa and a rest!
Today's card is a simple one. I've embossed the whole front of the card with dotties, adding a snippet strip of snowflake paper on silver mirri card. The image is called Christina and she's from Delicious Doodles. As the inspiration for this card was the blue poinsettia I cut out WEEKS ago, I went for the wild blue hair look!
Hope you like it. Back to the grind now!
Hugs
