The image is LOTV "Fairies-On Tiptoe"...i've had this stamp since it's release and never got round to inking it up...shame on me!...such a gorgeous image and a dream to colour.
I've used Copic's and Prisma's as my colouring medium and added some crystal Stickles to her wings,flowers and the ground...every fairy needs alittle sparkle!
The paper is Basic Grey "Euphoria",and the textured cardstock is DCWV.
The sentiment is Personal Impressions.

GDT CARD FOR POLLYCRAFT...."IN STITCHES"

Today i'd like to share with you me GDT card for the POLLYCRAFT CHALLENGE....this week it was Michele's turn to pick the theme "IN STITCHES"....this can be real or faux,i've gone for the faux stitching,and i've stitched the buttons on (maybe that counts as real..lol).
I've got two sewing machines,both away in cupboards...too much trouble to get them out,i haven't got enough room to leave them out so they don't see the light of day very often :0(.
I decided to do alittle paper piecing,i love this technique,i think it sort of brings everything together.
The image i've used is from the Pollycraft "Baby Love" set and the papers and textured cardstock are DCWV.
The small sentiment on the pram handle is Personal Impressions and as been cut out with a tag punch.The other one in the corner is out of a button pack from Hobbycraft.
I've added a touch of glamour dust to the dangling heart,ribbon,buttons and adhesive pearls from stash.

I'm also entering this card into the following challenges :-
PINK ELEPHANT CHALLENGE......Ribbon and Sparkles
THE CORROSIVE CHALLENGE #77.....Faux Techniques.

LILLI OF THE VALLEY......"SKETCH BY BEV".....

Well another week over they seem to be flying by...soon be Christmas,LOL.
Decided to join in the Lilli Of The Valley Challenge this week...there's a great sketch to follow by the very talented Bev...thanks Bev loved working with it :0).

I've inked up another neglected stamp LOTF "On The Garden Wall", although i haven't been crafting or blogging for quite some time it hasn't stopped me indulging myself with some gorgeous goodies...now i need to use them!

I've coloured the image with Copic markers and shaded alittle with Prisma Pencil's...must admit i love to combine the two colouring mediums.

The sentiment stamp is from a Personal Impressions set by Paula Pascual "Square Essentials".

The papers are K & Co "Hopscotch".

The scalloped border was made using a Fiskars "Threading Water" punch.

Alittle glamour dust to his flowers and pearls from stash....thought the pearls added to the background paper gave it alittle dimension.

Well i'm ashamed to admit this but i'm still in my jim jam's ....must go and have a shower and get ready,it's my dad's birthday today and want to take some flowers to the crem....still miss him lots.So dad if you can see this "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" XXX

Hope you all have a lovely weekend
