Another Beautiful Kith & Kin Image

I'm here to share another gorgeous digi image from Kith & Kin Stamp Company and when I say gorgeous I mean gorgeous

This is 'Ella Ballerina' isnt she adorable, the sentiment is from Kith & Kin too

I coloured her with pro markers and added glossy accents to her eyes, lips and the heart on her hair bow. The papers are from my stash and I used a deep purple card for matting and the die cut frame. I used 2 shades of pink organza ribbon, 1 thinner than the other and used my bow maker to make a super bow (my bows are normally wonky but this one is great), and added some flat back pearls in pink & purple to finish the card

Keep a lookout on the facebook page here for more new releases

JIC with Delicious Doodles

It's time for another Team B challenge at

Just Inspirational Challenges

and what a fab challenge & sponsor we have this time

 KRAFT CARD/PAPER

Delicious Doodles will give the winner 4 digi images

Here's what I made with 

ZODIAC - SAGITTARIUS

My Mum will be 60 this year so I wanted to make her a special card. I started with an 8x8 kraft card and it kinda all flowed from there. I knew it had to be blue & white, her fave colour combo, and not be too fussy or girly. As her birthday is in december i cut some poinsettia flowers from kraft paper and the centers from the cardstock I had backed the image on. It needed some texture so I used some swirl embossed white card (see pic below). The image is coloured with pro markers and her hair & tail have fine glitter on. I added some cloudy blue paper & a strip of white organza ribbon but it still needed something special so I decided to add a total of 60 pale blue gems as borders & corners, now it is complete

I hope you will join in the challenge with us this week. Pop over to the challenge blog here to see my fabulous ladies makes using kraft

Beautiful Rory Fairy

I'm here with a new release from the uber talented Kyra at

Kith and Kin Stamp Company

this is the beautiful

Rory Fairy

Isn't she just gorgeous

When I went on holiday a couple of weeks ago I printed off loads of images & packed up all my pro markers so I could sit & colour in the evenings, so Rory came to the seaside with me

I decided to try a darker colourway than the usual fairy pastels I do, and I think it worked out OK

She is coloured with pro markers & for her wings I used sakura's, backing paper was from my stash as were the gems. I brought the fab big roses for 50p a bunch of 5 on holiday (got them in 4 or 5 colours) and the long spiral is from WOC thanks to my team-mate Tracey for letting me know about them (I now have those in 4 or 5 colours too), the other flowers are from my stash

There will be lots more new releases over the coming weeks as I know Kyra is working on & has done some fabulous images, so you might want to bookmark the site & join the fb page here

BLOG CANDY!!!

OHHHHHHHHHH I was just playing around with my blog when I noticed its my blogoversary in 59 days. It got me thinking maybe I could have a little candy. Then I looked at my followers 181 with google & 4 with bloglovin and I came up with an idea

I will have a surprise blog candy to be drawn on my blogoversary (59 days time) AS LONG AS I have a total of 200 followers combined between google & bloglovin, I already have 185 so that's only another 15 to find

So what do you have to do to be eligible?

1. Be a follower ( and NOT just a candy grabber)

2. Share my candy either in your side bar or a post

3. Post a comment here with a link to your blog/post

That's it, simple. So if you want to be in with a change of some surprise candy, and don't worry it wont be a used foam pad or a dried up glue stick, it will be some pretties & sparklies, then get sharing my candy and fingers crossed I will be back with a winner on December 20th 2013

She's A Siren

Its New Release day again at

The Stamping Chef

and this week we have

SIRENA

She was so lovely to colour and I am really pleased with how she turned out. I used pro markers to colour her and clear ZIG Wink of Stella to highlight her tail and hair.

I decided once she was coloured that she needed to be on more than a card so found this wicker basket, that once housed candles, and set about altering it. I used turquoise, green & white spiders web and a strip of hessian that I pulled apart slightly and stuck it all to the basket with loads of pva, added turquoise and orange dew drops, and bronze sea themed charms to the top of the basket and then washed all over the top of the basket with Pixie Dust Glimmer Glam. On the front of the basket I unraveled white & turquoise paper raffia and stuck that and twine in waves & swirls on with pva and dotted turquoise dew drops around. Then i covered the rest of the basket again with glimmer glam. I used the same twine to tie the lid to the back of the basket so it flips open.

I really enjoyed making this and although it doesnt have a use at the moment it wont be long until I find something to fill it with

If you would like to get Sirena to play with you can get 20% off this weekend only
