Dream Catcher

I made this card using a digital stamp I bought today from the Sugar Nellie range from Funky Kits. I wanted to play around with my promarkers (I'm still a learner!) and when I found this challenge at The Sugar Bowl blog, I knew it was my chance! The theme was blue and I followed the sketch. I do love this little image and my daughter loves dream catchers so I may have to make something for her with it.

(please not that the icky looking bit around the edge of the wings is actually glitter but just shows up as some blobby mass of goo on my camera! I'm not in the habit of adding ick to my cards!)

It's a girl!

I made this card with a digital image downloaded from pinkpetticoat.co.uk. The set is called 'Sweet Cheeks' (how cute is that!) and comes with a lot of images. I love the things they do there. Go check it out!
I coloured it with my promarkers and used glamour dust for a bit of sparkle. The grey bow looks a lot darker in the photo than it does on the actual card but not much I can do about that.

I though it would enter this one into the challenge 'SOMETHING NEW' on the Bee-crafty blog even thought it's not one of their images (sorry!)

Hard days work

I made this card for the Lili of the Valley challenge blog. Their stamps are so cute (I've ordered 3 more) and are great for pro marker practice!

It makes a nice change to have a nice male stamp. It's so tough making cards for men but I enjoyed making this one.

With Love...

 I made this card for the
create4funchallenge
it's one of the first times I've done a challenge and I quite enjoyed it! I got this image from My Grafico and used my new pro markers to colour it. (I'm still getting used to them and need a lot more practice with my shading!)

Fairy Card

I made this for a family frinds 40th birthday and thought I would also enter it into
Cute card thursday challenge - someone special.
It's the first time I've ever entered a challenge like this...wish me luck!

Digital Images

I've been using a lot of digital images lately, this is one of the many that I got from http://www.mygrafico.com/index.php They have some really nice stuff.
We actually had a sunny day, so I managed to get outside to take pictures. They always look nicer in real sunlight!

Anniversary Card

I got the idea for this one out of a magazine. I made the birds out of mire but found it really tricky to stick them in place. (Don't look too close or you'll see the glue!) I embossed the flowers with a cuttlebug folder in my bigshot and distressed it to bring up the white. I also used my nestablilites. It came out better than I thought it would but I would have like to be able to use less glue on the wire birds.

Baby Card

I made this new baby card on commission for my friend Heather. I actually got round to using my new craft robo. After a bit of playing around with the software that came with it and after a lot of searching forums for tutorials, I managed to 'weld' my words and make this card. It's my very first attempt at the craft robo and I'm pretty please with the results. I just need some new ideas or everyone is going to be getting very similar cards this year! 

Nan's birthday card

I made this for my Nan's birthday using some of the free papers I got with one of my craft magazines. I never seem to get round to using the freebies but I should, some are really nice!

Baby Lauren

Although it's a little late I made this card this evening, for my Cousin and his wife who had a little girl on the 16th October, baby Lauren who is as cute as her name!
