Besties - Img734...

So October is here! Hopefully this will be the month that we can get back out our coats and boots! Recently it has been really warm which of course is nice but honestly I miss the cooler evenings, autumn is my favourite season of the year! 

Anyway with a new month starting means a new challenge is also starting over on The UK Besties blog, this months theme is Halloween. 

I used the Besties Img734 which of course I coloured with my Copic pens and I was super brave and coloured black I used the C family along with 100 and i'm really happy with the result and it wasn't actually as hard as I thought it would be. 

The back ground paper and the sentiment are both Doodlebug which I had left over from last year! The Black spiders web you can slightly see is from Stampin Up which again is left over from last year!

I cant wait to see what you create for the challenge!

#thedailymarker30day - Day 3 + 4...

Over the last two days I have coloured another lovely Tiddly Ink image called Ellie says happy birthday. 

This is how she looked at the end of day 3...

And then today day 4 I have finished the image and made her into a card :) 

I have used two sheets of Doodlebug paper for the background from the 6 X 6 pad called kraft in colour. which is just a really great basic pad to have in your collection! The oval behind her is a die cut from MFT die-namics called Oval Open Scallop Doily. The banner in front of her legs is a new stamp the die set from Stampin Up which I recently treated myself to called Bunch of Banners and once again just a few odd sequins scattered on the card.

#thedailymarker30day - Day 2...

Today I coloured a My Favourite Things girl called Little Shutterbug with my Copic pens...

Again I had enough time to make it into a card which is super cute! For those of you who know me personally will know already that I am a obcessed with camera's and thing with camera on. So when both the stamp and background paper from Doodlebug have been in my collection for quite a while.  I used the lawn fawn die Scripty Smile to cut out the sentalment and the few silver sequins you see are just some I picked up in a multipack from the range.

Going Back in time to April...

Back in April I created these two Project Life pages using the Doodlebug Easter Parade Collection. 

This first Page is to document Easter Sunday, which all the family gathered around Jobie and Kirsty's for a Easter Egg hunt :) 

The second layout I created with the collection is about the day I took all my cousins and Sofie to visit Gaston Farm to feed the Lambs. 

It was a lovely collection to work with and the animal images are just so cute!

Cindy's Birthday...

I just want to say happy birthday Cindy I hope you have an amazing day.

Cindy was actually lucky to receive a card from me at all this year because as I was making it, I decided I loved it to much to give away but mum convinced me you can't hang on to everything.:)

This is the finished card - 

I really love how it turned out. The background and patterned paper I used is from a 6x6 paper pad from doodlebug called 'Kraft in Color' which is just a picture of all different patterns in the basic colour selection. 

I then die cut the banner from the set Justrite 'Buntings & Buttons' in SU Basic Black and also cut out a selection of clouds from a few dies I have (the largest cloud is actually a top of a cupcake) 

To finish it all off I just layered it up and used the sentiment from crazy about you stamp set and thinlits dies which I heat embossed with the Wow! powders to give a little shine.

I hope you love it as much as I do.

More Project Life...

Two More Pages Complete :) 

The first one is of Grandads 60th Birthday we spent at the grand. I only used one project life card for this layout (the white & grey stripe), for all the rest of I used a selection of Stampin Up card stock.

For the second layout the photos are from when we all spent the day just before Christmas at Longleat Zoo. The paper I used is the 'Frosty Friends' collection from Doodlebug.

Ingalilly Digital Stamp...

Kirsty Wiseman posted this cute free digital stamp a few days ago, so Mum and I both challenged ourselves to use it along with this weeks PaperTake Weekly Challenge. The stamps name is Ingalilly and she is the perfect size for on a larger card.

I used the stampin up colours 'Pumpkin Pie' and 'Melon Mambo' which work perfectly with the doodlebug designer paper called 'Pretty Pink Asterisks' I used Copic pens to colour in the image for her face I used the colours E51 & E50, Hair YR31 & Y21, Flowers Y15 & Y17, The orange YR15 & YR16 and for all the pink RV14, RV13, RV10 & RV02. The large sentiment is from Justrite and its called vintage labels four.

Click here to see what mum created. 

I'm really happy with the way  mine turned out I have to be honest i'm never really a fan of working with digital stuff but I think this one was ok as I got to color it myself and wasn't restrained to colors that had already been chosen.

Christmas Card 2...

I have finally managed to finish all my Christmas cards, I was going to post them all after Christmas just in case anyone who was receiving one was reading the blog, but I have decided after Christmas I don't think anyone will want to still be seeing anything to do with Christmas. 

My little cousin Rosa is a little obsessed with the movie Frozen, so for her card I created a simple snowman looking up, with a Penny Black sentiment stamped in Stampin Up's Chocolate Chip Ink.

I used the new DoodleBug Frosty Friends collection paper for the background and the scarf.
