Truly Scrumptious & Inky Impressions DT Challenge Card

Hi there and thanks for stopping by. Well today is Wednesday and that means it's challenge time over at Truly Scrumptious and Inky Impressions. We have another fabulous sketch for you to follow this week with the added theme of a recipe which is 3 flowers, 3 brads and 3 gems/pearls.

 

And the challenge this week over at Inky Impressions is to make your own DP with the extra of using stitches on your card either faux or real.

Our sponsors this week over at over at Truly Scrumptious are Home Impressions

So this is what I came up with. For my card I've used the gorgeous Angelica Bunny Hugs from Inky Impressions and I've coloured her using my ProMarker pens.

The paper I created myself by using a couple of stamps and added real stitches. I think I'm getting used to my little sewing machine now as the stitches came out quite straight, lol.

The flowers I made myself by using my Peony die from Spellbinders and the pearls/brads are from my stash.

A Spoon Full Of Sugar

Hi there and thanks for stopping by. Today I'd like to show you my card that I've made for the ASFOS Challenge, where there is a fabulous sketch to follow.

Yesterday I found out that I won last weeks challenge at ASFOS and the prize was $20 worth of digital images from Mo's Digital Pencil. I've been thinking of getting these gorgeous images for ages but have never got round to it. I had to make a christening card for a friend of mine and I thought that this image was ideal.

The adorable image has been printed out using my laser printer and then has been coloured with my ProMarker pens.

The DP is a download from Papercraft Inspirations

The flowers I made myself using my new Peony die cut from Spellbinders that was part of my birthday present from my hubby.

The heart charm I also made myself by using my sizzix heart shaped die, embossed it with clear powder and then sprinkled some Making Memories Highlights.
