Connie Fong - Bella with gift.

Hi everyone, today I am showing you the adorable little Bella with gift from Connie Fong, this images a free one from her Facebook group.  I have coloured using copic markers, and set on a kaiserkraft DSP background.  I have used stampin up cardstock in calypso coral and mint macaron, along with the doily and sequins.  The flowers are from a box I found in the craft room.  I have used liquid pearls on the heart and wink of stella on the bows which never photographs well.

Have a lovely week my crafty friends, Love Lynsey xx

Ching-Chou Kuik - Magic Wish

Hi everyone, I started colouring this image with copics, just on her face and then thought I wanted to take it a little darker so stayed in monotone for the whole image.  I really like how it turned out with the purple/silver style.  The cardstock is kaiserkraft and the card colour is stampin up wisteria wonder (R) and basic black.

The ribbon and sequin trim are from my local spotlight.  Again, lots of wink of stella in her hair and on the tale, and liquid pearls used.

Have a lovely day my crafty friends, Lynsey xx

Little Miss Muffet - Customer appreciation Day - Robins Mailbox

Hi guys, I had the pleasure of being a guest designer for the little miss muffet challenge blog for their customer appreciation day.  

I have coloured the image using copic markers but did a little twist and didn't colour the robin in the red traditional coloured but brought in a touch of yellow.

The card is stamping up granny green apple and highland heather.  The DSP and ribbon are kaiserkraft. There is a lot of wink of stella which never photographs well and i have used liquid pearls for the flowers.

You can grab the image here...Robin's Mailbox

Happy Friday my crafty friends, Lynsey xx

Di's Digi - Merry Mice

I am clearly making a start this year on my Christmas cards, using loads of supplies from the craft room up as well.  Today I have coloured these adorable mice using copic markers.  I have added wink of stella to the lanters and the mice's faces where snow would be melting and used glossy accents on the ground to show melted snow.  The snow added is white gel pen.  

The papers are last years stampin up DSP with garden greens and cherry cobbler card.  Stampin up basic black ribbon and embellishments from some hidden cupboard.

Have a great day my lovely crafters, Lynsey xx

Cute as a Button - New years eve

Hi everyone, I actually coloured this image up quite a while ago but was really confused as what to do with the background, that is until my friend posted a picture with a image on where she had used the stampin up star stamp and then I realised what I wanted to do, achieving it was another issue, but the idea came together and Im quite happy with it.

Coloured all in copic markers, I have used the alcohol drop technique on the background with the mentioned stamp and loads of wink of stella in her hair etc.  Glossy accents attached to her eyes, lips and champers.

Lace and sequins from spotlight, kaiserkraft silver paper and stamping up real red and basic black card used.

Thanks again Louise ;)

Cute As A Button - Kindergarten

Hi everyone, this was my card for the Cute as a button Facebook progressive challenge.  She's sooo cute, I have coloured her in copic markers, and used glossy accents on her shoes and eyes and the penguins eyes.  I have coloured her ribbon and the penguins tummy with wink of stella.

I have used stampin up cardstock in whisper white and bashful blue (R) and some old retired DSP.  The die is from kaiserkraft and the ribbon kaszazz.  The buttons are found in my craft room.

The sentiment is Liliofthevalley and the punches used to border are stampin up (R).

Thanks for having a look, have a lovely weekend my crafty friends.  Lynsey xx

Aurora Wings - Pansy

Hi everyone, today I would like to show you Pansy by Aurora Wings, I have coloured this a couple of times and its always a favourite when Im looking for a feminine card.  I have matched my copic colours to the paper colours which is a kaiserkarft DSP.  I have used stampin up Sahara Sand and Mint Macaron as the base colours.  The brad is a retired SU and the lace and liquid pearls from spotlight.  

There is a touch of wink of stella in he butterfly and centre of the pansy which never photographs well. 

Have a lovely week my crafty friends, xxx

Paper Nest Dolls - Nurse Emma with Teddy

Hi everyone, for my design team project this month I decided to use this adorable little image as I was asked by a lovely friend of mine to make a card for the staff at the nursing home who looked after her father.  The family is all white blonde so that decided on my colour scheme instantly.

I have coloured with copics, and used stampin up cardstock in blushing bride and baja breeze (R) with kasierkraft DSP.  I had added white gel pen as the accents, some brad from old stock and lace.  There is wink of stella on her hat and the bears heart which never photographs well and glossy accents on the bears nose and eyes and Nurse Emmas eyes. 

You can pick up the image here on the link.


Have a lovely week my crafting friends, Lynsey xx

Thanks for stopping by, hugs Lynsey xx

Tiddly Inks - The honeymooners

Hi my crafty friends, today I want to show you this picture I made using Tiddly Inks the honeymooners, I have coloured this image using the kit and clowder July markers colouring class and it was perfect to make it into a present for my friends wedding.

I have coloured using copic markers with a hint of wink of stella in the flowers on the car and the ladies hair.  The colour scheme of orange and blue was the colours for the wedding and I had to sneak in their names and wedding date in the number plate.  The purple jacaranda was purposely picked as purple is my friends favourite colour.

At the actual wedding we were getting other guests to sign the edges of the frame but I never managed to get a picture of it.  The frame is from spotlight.

I had so much fun with this, hope you like it too my lovey friends xx
