Bee Buzzy Gnomie

Inspiration for the second half of October.  The sponsor is Polka Doodles.

 

I have used an image by Polka Doodles called Sweet Gnomie - Bee Buzzy.

 

I also used a digital paper in the background.  I cut some of the bees from the paper to add around the image.  Colouring is with copic markers.

I have used a digital paper from Décosse's Dynamite Doodles and images that came with a magazine. 

I followed a tutorial for a Double Panel Card by Iced Images.

Watercolour Pumpkin

 I actually managed to find some time to upload this card before the last minute.  Go Me.

 

I have used watercolour paints along with coloured pencils for the colouring.  I kept it simple by layering the image on to some coloured cardstock and then onto the cardbase (using foam tape).  The image is by Nan Murphy.

Happy Birthday

I have had this card completed and sitting waiting for a day with good light to photograph it.  Yesterday and today we have had periods of blue skies which was ideal.

Let yourself grow

We are now officially into Spring here but it sure doesn't seem like it.  It is still very cold in the mornings and not a lot of heat in the sun either.  

It is the start of the latest Anything Goes Challenge at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends. The sponsor for this fortnight is Star Stampz. 


I have used an image by Star Stampz called Little Seedling


I also used a paper from a paper pad by Kaisercraft.  Colouring is with copic markers.  I added some ephemera leaves and sentiment.
