Groovy dude....You rock !!

Hi everyone....My friend needed a birthday card for her bro...So I thought I'd colour up the groovy dude image from Kenny K.
He is such a fun image...I used the sentiment 'You totally ROCK' from the greeting farm.


There is a couple adhesive rhinestone bling down the bottom of the card...(Thanks sammi, I love them!!)
which I coloured with brown copics to match.


Have fun crafting...till next time,

It's a 'NAUTICAL' challenge @ TOMIC

Hi everyone, Thankyou for coming to visit my blog....I love the new TOMIC challenge blog and I am SOOOOOO EXCITED to tell you I am going to be a guest DT for a week!!
I got in the top five with my side step card entry last week.....which means I have a lovely top 5 TOMIC badge to display on my blog ;-) You should have seen the smile on my face when I found out!!
Now onto my entry for the current challenge which is Nautical....I have used fishing Edwin and Fishing tilda
I coloured them with my Copics...The sentiment you are my best friend is from Magnolia.
Here it is.....Check out the 'REAL' WATER....


There's a fish in there.....!! I thought the water was a lovely touch to the Nautical theme....what do you think?
I added some blue micro beads to the water so when you shake it up they float around...
I drew the rocks Tilda is standing on with a multi-liner and coloured them with grey copics.



Tilda and Edwin.....I wonder what's in Tilda's basket?


Here's a close up of the water globe...I hope you like it.....I would love to read your comments!!
Till next time, happy crafting.

Get well wishes feat mini magnolia...

I am here with a gorgeous new mini stamp from Magnolia...not quite sure what she is actually called yet but I'll have a guess and say Nurse Tilda..!!
She was included in the new summer stamp club kit from Magnolia....I cant wait till she is released in a large version cos she is perfect for those get well cards...



I only just realized that this card actually fits in with our current challenge pink and yellow over at mad for markers...hehe http://www.madformarkers.blogspot.com/ 

The 'get well wishes' sentiment is from Stampin up.
Image is coloured with copics...It's kind of hard to tell by the pic but this is actually a mini sized card, I used a normal size card and cut it in half and made it into the shape of a tag.

Hope you enjoyed my post...Im sure I will be back with lots more inspiration for you very soon!!

You are a winner!!

Hi Everyone !!
I have made an Easel card using stamps from magnolia's new summer club kit..... this little Edwin is so cute. The sentiment and the winner ribbon is also from the kit.
I made the card to fit the sketch over at Magnolia down under challenge...I really loved the flag banner on this, I reakon I may use this idea a bit more.




I coloured all the images with copic markers and distressed some of the paper edges to give it a rough look. I used some brown chalk ink on the edges.
I just adore magnolia stamps...can you tell?....lol!!
Thanks for looking
