This month's Progressive Challenge at The Outlawz has almost finished and I'm only just getting my card in on time!  It's been one of those months that time seems to go quicker and things just done get done until the last minute (if at all!)

The Outlawz Progressive Challenge - September
http://outlawzchallenges.ning.com/group/freebie-progressive-challenge/forum/topics/progressive-freebie-challenge-september-2018

I have used a digital paper from Create with TLC for the background.  The image is from Createful Heart Digis and has been coloured with copic markers.  I also added a paper strip and some glittery embellishments.

Happy Birthday

I am finally caught up with all of Beccy's challenges from this year.  This one is the sketch challenge from February.  I'd printed out the image in February but that month my father had a massive stroke and passed away.  He hadn't been sick at all so it was a massive shock for all of us.  My mother couldn't cope on her own so I ended up doing alot for her in getting the house sold.  She has now shifted nearer to me and is getting more and more settled all the time.  So, I am now finding I'm getting a bit more "me" time.

I have used a paper, border and sentiment from a paper pad by Kaisercraft.  The image is from Beccy's Place and is coloured with copic markers.  I also added some pearls. I followed the sketch for the February challenge at Beccy's Place.

Best Wishes

This month's challenge at Beccy's Place has this gorgeous image and an optional theme of creating a Dutch Fold Card.

I have used a digital paper, image and sentiment all from Beccy's Place.  Colouring of the image is with copic markers.  I used some copper cardstock to mat the image. 

I followed a tutorial for the Dutch Fold Card from Beccy's Place.

Whooo

I seem to have a bit of a bird theme going at the moment.  I must have heards some birds twittering outside when I was choosing the images!

A Bit More Time To Craft - Anything Goes
http://abitmoretimetocraft.blogspot.com/2018/09/a-bit-more-time-to-craft-challenge-76.html

I have used a digital paper from Lozzy for the background.  I added a piece of mesh ribbon.  The image is from Ching-Chou Kuik and is coloured with copic markers.  It is the first time that I have used a grey scale image and I quite enjoyed colouring it up.  I also added an autumn coloured flower embellishment which was the last in the pack (now I wish I'd bought more packs).  I added a "stem" using pearls

Be The Reason Someone Smiles Today

I don't seem to have enough hours in the day at the moment.  I found a bit of time to craft yesterday but not as much as I would like!  It is good relaxation from everything else that is going on at the moment.

The Outlawz Thursday Challenge - In The Garden
http://outlawzchallenges.ning.com/group/prismaandothermediums/forum/topics/twisted-thursday-challenge-sept-20-sept-26-twist-in-the-garden

I have used a paper, border and two tags from a paper pad by Kaisercraft.  The image is from Miss Rach and is coloured with copic markers.  I added some tiny pearls to the tags and some larger pearls to the card itself.  I also added some flower shaped buttons to add to the garden feel.

Wishing You A Wonderful Day

I have had so many distractions this evening that I didn't think that I would get this card completed!  I should really be in bed by now - but at least I have completed it!  Then I'm off to bed as it is now nearly 11pm!  I'll check for some more challenges to add this to after I have had some sleep!

I have used a paper and sentiment from a paper pad by Kaisercraft.  The image is from Dr Digi's House of Stamps and is coloured with copic markers.  I added some masculine looking washi tape.

Meowy Christmas

This week's optional theme at CHNC Weekly Challenge is "Pick A Patterned Paper".  I used three different patterned papers all from the same paper pad.

I have used an image from Bugaboo Stamps called Christmas Cat and a sentiment from an image called Make It Snappy Meowy Christmas.

I also used three different patterned papers from a Christmas paper pad.  Matting is yellow pearlescent paper.  I also added some olive green ribbon across the card.  Colouring is with copic markers and Kindy Glitz.
