http://fridaysketchchallenge.blogspot.co.nz/2015/10/sketch-102.html


I have used some scrapbooking papers from my stash for the background.  The image is Boobie Love from Saturated Canary.  I coloured her with copic markers YG03, E00, E43, E41, R22, R20, R59, E08.  I matted with some pink paper.  I added a flower embellished with a pink pearl from Rosie's Studio as well as adding some crochet flowers (bought ones because I can't crochet!).

Thanks

Rainbow Girl

The inspiration for this card comes from the challenge at PINspirational Challenges.  When I saw the photo it reminded me of some of the photos that Krista has of herself on her blog.  She is the artist behind Saturated Canary - so I decided to use an image from Saturated Canary:

Red and White

It is time for another Colour Challenge at Incy Wincy Designs.  This week we are sponsored by Saturated Canary who are offering 2 digis to the lucky winner!

I have used a lovely image called Spritz which was just perfect for this colour challenge.  I have also used various red and white background papers.  Matting is red cardstock.  The die that I have used is a Beaded Oval die from Spellbinders.  I have coloured the image using copic markers R29, R27 and E00 plus I added some Stickles (not sure which one I used now).  I added some Glossy Accents over the cane to give it a bit more of an authentic candy look.  Some rhinestones have also been added to the card to further embellish it.

The Outlawz Greetings Challenge - Colour Combo
http://outlawzchallenges.ning.com/group/birthdaycard/forum/topics/greetings-challenge-july-1st-mellon-mango-month

I have used a paper from Teresa Collins as the background for this card - the colours matched the colour swatch at The Outlawz perfectly.  I have also used a green paper from a paper scrap pack for matting.  The image and sentiment are from The Saturated Canary.  I have coloured using copic markers and embellished with some pearls.

Photo Inspired Girlie Card

I love this image but hadn't had the chance to create with it.  I took it with me on holiday and coloured it up and finally got to create something with it.

This card is for the following challenges:
PINspirational Challenge - Photo Inspiration

Robyn's Fetish - Spring Colours

Shelly's Images - Kid Theme
http://shellysimagesblog.blogspot.co.nz/2013/05/ttt-challenge-theme-schools-out-for.html

I have used a background paper from MME for this card.  When I first looked at this paper I thought it was a bit too bright but with a large image over thetop it tones it done considerably.  The image is one from Saturated Canary and has been coloured with copic markers.  I used the Out of the Box technique to cut the image. Both the matting and the flower embellishment are cut from metallic paper.  For the flower I have used a Mariannes Creatables Die that I purchased while on holiday.  I have also added some soft pink rhinestones for a bit of bling.

Saturated Canary Embossed Card

A fairly simple style card with some embossing and a beautiful Saturated Canary image:

This card is for the challenges at:
Penny's Paper - Embossing
http://pennyschallenges.blogspot.co.nz/2013/01/challenge-111-embossing-wet-or-dry.html

The background paper that I have used comes from Trimgym.  The embossed panel is an embossing folder.  The image is from Saturated Canary and has been coloured using copic markers.  The matting is a paper from DIY and Digital Designs which was the right shade of red to complement the Trimgym paper.

Giving Thanks

The challenge at Incy Wincy is all about Giving Thanks
http://incywincydesigns.blogspot.co.nz/2012/11/giving-thanks-with-saturated-canary.html

I have made a general Thank You card - that is, not one specifically for teachers which is what I seem to be focussing on at present

The card uses a background paper from Webster's Pages from a collection combo pack - Western Romance & All about me.  The image that I have used is from Saturated Canary and is called Rose Red.  I'm not sure if it was the name of the image or that my daughter has auburn coloured hair but I tended to go with the red-auburn colour scheme for the hair!

I have glitzed the card up a bit with some glitter tape and also used some glitter cardstock from DCWV for the matting.  I added some ribbon roses in a couple of sizes and colours to the card and then kindy glitzed them for a bit of extra sparkle.  The Thank You sentiment is an acrylic stamp which I stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black.

Autumn Leaves

I have created another autumn coloured card.  I just love working with this colour palette even though it is springtime here (or at least it is meant to be!!)

I am entering the card in the following challenges:
