The Pixie Cottage

I am happy to say that I put my hand up for Guest Designer at The Pixie Cottage and created a sketch and a card to play along in the Pixie Cottage theme!  Here is the sketch and my card.  Pop on over to the challenge blog and play along!  The theme is to use the sketch and add some metal!  


Dont you love a good craft day

I spent the day all alone today other than a few little must do jobs.. I crafted!
The day started with a few purchases.. namely from By Lori Designs (Lollipops), which I had been spying for a week or so.  I then played with print and cuts and digital kits and finally I had to copy the display card on By Lori Designs and I came up with this.    I used my copics and finally understand the numbers on the pens and how they work.. makes a huge difference with blending!
My sewing machine came out to play, my ribbon box was raided and i even managed to find a button to play with!  The paper is Cosmo from a 6 inch pack I have.  The image was printed on my normal printer and then cut with a print and cut on my Gazelle.  Following the instructions from the ever brilliant Alisa.

Bizzy Bec's Challenge - October

I spied this challenge after visiting Cheryl's blog at My Cardmaking Haven.  I love my Tiddlyinks digi's and I wanted to use one of the girls for the card.  So here I am sitting at my friends house (hi deby) creating.. relaxing.. avoiding any responsibilities in life... (joy).. and I came up with this.  Its meant to fit into Bizzy Becs challenge theme of Grunge... Im going to have to call it a pretty grunge as the girl isnt grungy looking at all.!



some recent cards

Ive been playing with my copics and cutter and my new tiddly ink images and decided i should put some photos up.  The gazelle was really only used to cut around the images with a frame and one is a print and cut which cuts it really close to the outline of the image.  I have about 5 more images already cut and coloured i just have to put them together. The first image is a tiddlyink's image that i coloured with Prisma's just so i remembered how!
 This bright orange card was from craft camp as a last minute project
This image was printed and coloured long before craft camp and I took it with me to use it on a project, its from Robyns fetish. 
Another tiddly.. maybe my favourite.  Sorry the photo is so bright 
Again an image i coloured ages ago and took to camp.. the photo was too bright and i tried to darken it to make it more accurate.. didnt work!~!
