Here's Bella and Bronte again, this time coloured in a completely red theme. Again, the card is for Sarah's nineteenth birthday, but this one has COUSIN on it as Lianne and Lewis wanted to give this card to Sarah.
I decoupaged Bronte and Bella's arm, body and head and her boot. I added some red ribbon for texture and highlighted certain parts of the background paper by adding glitter.
I think Bella looks good in red and I just love Bronte as s/he reminds me of my dog Ali. Although we rescued her from a dog rescue centre just a few months ago, after she had already been there for twelve months. It turns out that we will only have her for a short period of time as she has a tumour growing in her stomach. She stopped eating for a while and got very, very skinny so we took her to the vet, who gave her a steroid to help her gain her appetite back. Unfortunately, now that she is eating, and eating well, she is also feeding her tumour, which has grown considerably in the past week or two, which means that her time here with us is borrowed and therefore, we won't have her for very much longer. Which is sad, but I am grateful that she is with us, with a loving family, surrounded by people who love her, instead of her dying in the kennel that she had called home for twelve months. Although she was well cared for there by the workers and the volunteers, I still wouldn't swap the past six months for anything. We love you Ali xxx
I know that some of you love owls and this is another freebie from Dustin. He is so sweet I just love the way this has been drawn.
This is another of Dustin's freebie dragons. I love them so much and thank Dustin for sharing them with me and others.
This is another of Dustin's freebie dragons. They're just too cute and I love the expressions on their faces. It's the cutest dragon I have ever seen (do you remember the Whimsical Dragons? I think that's why I like them so much, as they remind me of them).
This is a freebie from Dustin Pike's Blog. I just love his dragons (and so did Lewis, my son, which is why I had to make one of the images up on a card especially for him). Anyway, this little Fire Dragon was perfect for Lewis as he loves anything to do with firemen and I just loved colouring him in with my ProMarker pens (that's the dragon...not Lewis ha ha). I have a link to Dustin Pike's blog so pop over and have a look if you love this little chap as there is a new freebie this week. The writing on the left and the hearts were written and drawn freehand and the circle greeting was one that's been lying around in my collection for a while. We are proud of him as he just received a medal for being a 'Hat Trick Hero' in his football team at school. Well done baby!
Another great Penny Black stamp, perfect for a little new born baby. The stamped greeting is also Penny Black and I kept the lilac theme going by adding some lavender coloured flowers and gems.
This is the pumpkin that I made for my family this Halloween. We bought the tombstone from Asda and the pumpkin, which is huge, was a bargain at a £1.
This is just a really simple Wedding card. I decided that I hadn't used this stamp in a while and I wanted to see what it looked like coloured in with my ProMarkers. I stamped the image and then stamped it again so that I could decoupage it and stamped 'a day to celebrate' underneath the image. Simple and elegant...
