Merry Christmas

 I created a number of cards yesterday but ran out of time to write the blog posts for them.

Sweet Sketch Wednesday - Sketch 226

I have used a digital paper from Lozzy.  The image/sentiment is from MMedel Illustrations.  Colouring is with copic markers and Kindy Glitz.  I also added some ribbon, a tree die cut using a Memory Box die, some silver cardstock and some glitter gems.

I followed this sketch from Sweet Sketch Wednesday:

Hello

Today is the first day of Spring - and the sun has been shining all day.  However, the weather forecast for the rest of the week isn't so great.  So I guess I'll have some more crafting time.

Sweet Sketch Wednesday - Sketch
http://sweetsketchwednesday2.blogspot.com/2019/08/sketch-165-and-166-with-bugaboo-stamps.html

I kept to a simple colour scheme of mainly black, white and pink with a couple of touches of gold.  The paper is from a paper pad by Kaisercraft.  The image is from MMedel Illustrations and the sentiment is from Dana's Inspirations.  Colouring is with copic markers and Wink Of Stella.  I also used a piece of grosgrain ribbon from my stash

The layout follows the sketch at Sweet Sketch Wednesday.  I had been having a bit of a block on layouts recently and found the two sketches from the current challenge at Sweet Sketch Wednesday gave me inspiration to move past that block.

Here is the sketch that I followed:

Distracted by something sparkly

Some sparkle and glitter for yet another rainy day here.  I am really ready for some sunnier weather.

Penny's Paper Crafty - Anything Goes
http://pennyschallenges.blogspot.com/2019/08/welcome-to-pennys-challenge-443-and-dt.html

I have used a paper from a paper pad by Kaisercraft.  I added a strip of corrugated cardstock from a paper pad.  I cut a square of glitter cardstock and turned it before adding to the card.  The image is from MMedel Illustrations and is coloured with copic markers.  I added a sentiment from Create with TLC.

Canvas

When I saw this image, I knew I wanted to do a canvas rather than a card this month.  It gave me a good opportunity to bring out some stash that I hadn't used in a while too.

The Outlawz Progressive Freebie Challenge -


I have used a blank mini canvas.  I added a pattern using a stencil from Tim Holtz and Nuvo Glitter Paste.  I then added a gold ribbon.  I sprayed so Magic Mesh with some Dylusions Ink and added this at an angle.  I then added some gold flakes, pearls, acrylic paint from Art Alchemy and some clear translucent glass beads.  I also added some embellishments that i created using silicone moulds and resin.  I added a string of pearls around her neck.

Just Because

October has been pretty much a write off for me.  I have finally managed to do a bit of crafting in the past couple of days but the majority of it has been DT makes.  I did manage to create something using the freebie image from the progressive challenge at The Outlawz.

I have used a paper from a paper pad by Kaisercraft.  The tag and sentiment come from a different paper pad by Kaisercraft but work well together with the paper.  I also used some hessian paper and a corrugated paper from different paper pads by DCWV.  The image is from Mmedel Illustrations and is coloured with copic markers and Wink Of Stella.  I also added some pre-made flower embellishments.
