This is Autumn is Coming. I have coloured her with copics - and then......the dreaded OOPS happened!

DRATS!!!!!  The joys of handmade art eh???   The sentiment is from Magnolia and the papers and rhinestones are from my stash!!!

Our sponsor this week is THE PAPER SHELTER.  The DT were fortunate to get some digis to work - I adore these images, they are so sweet!!!!! Head on over to the CHALLENGE blog and see what the rest of my teamies have done!!!!

Here is my  card for this week:

I used the colours for inspiration, not the scene this time. Orange, yellow, blues and greens!!!!  So pretty!!!! I used A. Mucha Influence - Winter and coloured her with Copics.  I added some white 3D paint to the snow, flowers from my EK Success flower punches and the branch is from Martha Stewart. 

Have fun and good luck!!! I hope you'll join us this week!

Incy Wincy challenge - Let's PARTY!!

HAPPY MONDAY!!!!!!

This week the Incy Wincy Design team has a GREAT challenge for you.

Let's PARTY!

It can be any kind of party - birthday, Christmas, beach, anniversary....whatever makes you celebrate!!!!

Our sponsor this week is The Paper Shelter -  I just adore these images!!!  They are SO cute!

Here is my little scrapling card for this week:

I used an image called SUNNY DAY! Ohhh how I wish I was laying on the beach somewhere, with drink in hand!!!! AHHHHH!!!!!  Oh wait, I WILL be on Thursday! LOL

 I have coloured her with Copics and added some crystal lacquer to her glasses and her drink, plus some stickles to the flower in her hair.  The rhinestones and ribbon are from my stash.

I am entering this into The Paper Shelter challenge this week which is ANYTHING GOES! Wish me luck!

Have fun and good luck!!! I hope you'll join us this week!

The Paper Shelter Design Team call

So, after much deliberation, I decided to throw my hat in the ring for The Paper Shelter DT call..... I guess I'll never know unless I try!!!  They wanted the focus to be on our colouring so I printed off about 6 TPS images and started colouring.  I, of course, wasn't happy with any of them, so I started all over again!  OY!  I guess we ARE our worst critics eh?

I decided to use this image called Magic Bubble Bath  - I THINK it shows my shading and colouring abilities well (at least I hope it does!)  I have coloured it with Copics and added 3D Glittering Crystal paint to the bubbles to give it that sparkly bubble feel - it looks so much better in person!!!! I wanted to keep a fairly simple layout too, so the girls at The Paper Shelter could see my colouring!  It is also a reflection of my style I guess.....simple and clean, a few embellies but not overloaded!!!

I'm also attaching a coloured image that I was quite happy with, but didn't get a chance to make into a card (the deadline is creeping up quickly!!!) - so thought I'd share it too for fun!  The "snow" is 3D paint. 

Thanks for popping by, have a GREAT day!!
Hugs,
Chris

My first PAPER SHELTER card & challenge entry!

I discovered The Paper Shelter images one day by total fluke, and am I ever glad I did! Their images are soooo cute!!!  I LOVE them!!!!  So, I purchased a few and decided to try to join in on their challenges!  So, here is my first card using a Paper Shelter image and am entering it into The Paper Shelter challenge blog - the theme is Be my Valentine, so I hope this still qualifies. 

I made it for my niece who loves purple.  Inside the sentiment says "Be My Valentine" (freebie from The Stamp Fairy) but I forgot to take a picture of it, and it is already in the mail!  OOPS!

The CS is Alpine Aster from WorldWin Papers and the DP is from Magnolia - Hummingbird Stripe.  I made the flowers with my 2 EK Success Retro flower punches and the sentiment is from a Simon Says Stamp Exclusive set of sentiments. I have coloured the image with Copics and added a few stickles to her flowers and my stardust gelly roll pen. 

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a GREAT Sunday!!! See you tomorrow - I will have THREE posts tomorrow so be sure to stop by!!!! 
Hugs,
Chris
