Little Mermaid

I haven't done much crafting today as my cold is bothering me.  I did however, find some time to make this one:


I would like to enter:
Gecko Galz - Little Mermaid
http://geckogalzscrapbooking.blogspot.com/p/challenge-of-day.html

I have used a piece of background paper that I have had in my stash for a couple of years.  I bought a pack of mixed cardstock and papers that I still haven't finished using.  The two pieces on the left have been made with shaving cream and Distress Ink Refills.    The image is from Gecko Galz.

You're In My Thoughts and Prayers

We are midway through the In Bloom Challenge at Scribbles Designs.


I have used:
Scribbles Designs - Flower Set 2
Scribble Doodle Designs - Flower 1 Digi Paper

Colouring is with copic markers.  I raised the flower up above the card using mount tape.

Spring Adds New Life

This is my third post of the day - I've been busy crafting



I would like to enter:

A Bit More Time To Craft Extra - April Challenge
https://abitmoretimetocraftextra.blogspot.com/2020/04/abmttc-extra-challenge-april-anything.html

I have used a digital paper from Trimgym for the main background and then layered on a digital paper from Lozzy.  The image is from Oddball Art Company and the sentiment is from Desert Diva.  Colouring is with copic markers.  I added a pre-made butterfly to the layered piece of digital paper.

Hoppy Easter

I have been busy crafting today - it was about all that I felt like doing.

CRAFT Challenge - Easter/Spring
https://trimmiescraftchallenge.blogspot.com/2020/03/challenge-550-26th-of-march-easterspring.html

I have used some smaller pieces of digital paper from Trimgym which I put together patchwork style.  The image and sentiment are both from QKR Stampede.  Colouring is with copic markers.  I added some washi tape,  a flower and an enamel dot to complete the card.

Rose Garden

I made another canvas today.  I found these roses when I was tidying up but they are far too large for a card so when I saw the theme at Gecko Galz I just had to use them for that.

Gecko Galz - Rose Garden

I have used a patterned serviette as the base for my canvas.  I stamped a few clear stamps randomly on the serviette.  I matted the image and then added it to the canvas.  I  used Metallic Gilding Wax to colour the chipboard leaves and Gilding Polish to colour the butterfly.  I added some clear translucent beads along the right of the image.  I also added the roses that I found when tidying.

A Birthday Wish

I printed out a few images at the start of the daily challenges at Gecko Galz.  That was before we went in to lockdown and I realised that what ink was in the printer is going to have to last until we come out of lockdown.  So to conserve ink, I have used one of those images today.

Gecko Galz - Happy Birthday
https://geckogalzscrapbooking.blogspot.com/p/challenge-of-day.html

I have used strips of offcut digital papers from Lozzy and Scribble and Scrap.  There are actually 5 pieces vertically - 3 of the Lozzy one and 2 from Scribble and Scrap - but I ended up covering over some of them.  The image is from Gecko Galz and the sentiment is from Desert Diva.  Colouring is with copic markers and Wink Of Stella.  I also added a pre-made butterfly embellishment.

I can't stop the downpour

It is the first Monday in April already - a third of the year has already passed.  It is time for the next Anything Goes Challenge at Lil Patch Of Crafty Friends.  This time our sponsor is Pattie's Creations.



I have used an image from Pattie's Creations called Duckie With Rain Boots.


I also used a doily from my stash which I coloured using Dylusions Spray.  Colouring of the image is with copic markers and Wink Of Stella.  The sentiment is from Create with TLC.  Matting is blue cardstock.  I also added some glitter gems in two different colours.
