cute with buttons

Morning girls

It's another wet miserable one here in Glasgow.  Winter is on the way me thinks never mind autumn:(   Time to get the woolie jumpers and boots out.  Oh but I've a reason still to be cheerful girls.

I WON ONE OF THE NEW CHRISTMAS LILY OF THE VALLEY STAMPS

Yip, lil old me had her name drawn by mr randon.org to win one of the new releases.  I can't wait for the postie to come!!!!

So onto the reason for my post this morning.  It's Friday girls!!! That means a nice new challenge over on Totally Papercrafts and this week we'd like to see...

CUTE WITH SOME BUTTONS 

sponsored this week by

I won a challenge over on Kelly's Kids last week and couldn't wait to colour up this little cute.  Isn't she adorable?  Pretty as a picture eh?

Coloured as usual with copics.  Papers are from Pink Petticoat, buttons from me stash.

Do pop over to the challenge girls and have a peep at my teamies creations.  Each and everyone of them is fantabulous as usual:)

Morning girls

It's another damp, dismal one here in Glasgow.  Nothing new there then eh?  One of these morning I'll waken to brilliant sunshine!!  Well a girl can dream can't she?  We've had it all this weekend, from torrential downpours to bright sunshine all the while a wind that would cut you in two!  All seasons in one day!!

It's time for a new challenge over on Karen's Doodles and this week our theme is

FANCY FOLDS

 

Now it's been years since I've made on of these cards.  Don't ask me why this shape popped into me head but it did and I must say I quite enjoyed putting it together:) I even managed to get some decent pics despite the weather.  My last few have been terrible which makes the cards look bad too although this bottom one could've been a bit better.

 

I've used two of Karen's newest images on this card.  Beat the Heat on the front and  Boating Fun on the inside, both of them available from the store.

Coloured with copics, prisma pencils and I tried on of the new techniques Zoe and her team are showing over on Make It Crafty which is to use a white gel pen to add water droplets although I'm not quite sure I managed it successfully lol. Papers are from Pink Petticoat, sentiment is Sparkle n Sprinkle and the other bits and bobs are from me stash.

So, that's my effort, do pop over to the challenge blog for some more fabulous inspiration from the other Doodle Divas, even better, why not play along for the chance to win some of these fab images.

Morning girls

Have you been over to Karen's Doodles challenge blog yet this morning to welcome our new Doodles Princesses.  Boy we'd some fantastic entries, it's such a shame we couldn't have more girls on the team.

Anyway, this week we'd like you to play bingo with us.  

Choose a line in any direction and create your card.

I've gone with the top line across, buttons, ribbon and flowers although I've cheated a wee bit and 

used floral ric rac.  

What do you think of this new image of Karen's.  It's called 'Beat the Heat'  Cute or what?  I couldn't wait to colour it over the weekend.  I used prisma pencils blended with mineral spirits and a dash of sakura glaze pens on the flowers 

of Rosie's dress.  The papers are Pink Petticoat and the ricrac was from me stash.

So that's my effort for this week girls.  

I do hope you play along with us as it's always nice to see how you interpret our themes.
