My New Birthday Present…..

It’s time for a new challenge at Fussy & Fancy Challenges and this time the challenge is…..

‘Birthdays’.

Our sponsors for this challenge are Sweet Lilac Flowers & Sherri Baldy - My Besties.

We were provided with some images from Sherri Baldy and this was the one I was given to use. Now I’m not sure if I’ve made it fit the ‘Birthday’ theme too well but I’ve looked at the image as playing with a new Birthday present (the doll).

The image is called IMG30 which you will find here. I have printed the image onto X-Press It Blending card and coloured with my Copic Markers.

The colours I’ve used are: Skin – E11, E00, E000, R20, R30; Hair – E47, E44, E42, E40, E57, E55, E53, E51; Clothes - RV06, RV04, RV02, YG25, YG23, YG21, Y38, Y35, Y32; Eyes - B04, B02.

Here’s a closer look at the image.

Dreams….

It’s time for a new challenge at The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog and this time the challenge is…..

‘Back to School’.

This week, as always, we are sponsored by The Paper Shelter and Veronica & Pedro are offering a fabulous prize of $30 to spend at their site.

If you use a TPS image in your creation you will receive the full $30 to spend on their gorgeous designs, and if you haven’t used a TPS image then you will win 3 Digis of your choice from their site.

I always find this theme a hard one as in Australia we really don’t make a fuss when it’s time to go back to school. That of course doesn’t mean us parents don’t get excited to have some ‘child free time’ and get excited just that we don’t make things for teachers or our children just because they are going back to school. However, I’m really happy with my image on my card today. I’ve used the lovely ‘She is Adorable’ image.

My image was printed onto X-Press It Blending card and coloured with my Copic Markers.

The colours I’ve used are: Skin - E11, E00, E000, R20; Hair, Shoes & Bag - E47, E44, E42, E40; Clothes - BG75, BG72, BG70, YR24, YR23, YR21.
