Ooooh la la

Hi everyone

Just adding another quick card before I nip off to bed, as I really love the way this one turned out.

She's called 'Denise' and she's by Saturated Canary. She can be found here. Isn't she great?

I love her hair and she seems to be a little 'ooh la la'.  Coloured with Copic Markers and added some crafty paper, stars, numbers and ribbons.

This was made at the request of a Facebook friend, who got in touch and asked me to make a card for her. She really liked it and said that the photograph didn't really do the card much justice, so I apologise for that, but as you can't see the original card, I guess it doesn't really matter that much to you guys.

Anyway, I loved the way the whole card turned out (I have to admit, my favourite colour combos at the moment are black, red and gray).

I hope you like it too. Come back soon x

The Red Velveteen Rabbit

Hello fellow crafters
I trust you are having a pleasant evening whatever you are doing?

I just wanted to share a little something with you that I have been working on this evening, while watching an old Doctor Who episode with my son, Lewis.  I really miss David Tennant, although I do like Matt Smith as well.  We were watching the episode where the Doctor and Martha go back in time to visit William Shakespeare at the Globe Theatre, called 'The Shakespeare Code' and my son showed me where he sat when he recently visited the theatre in London, with his school.  Bless him, he's really excited.

Anyway, I think I might have been a little bit inspired whilst watching as I came up with this dark and ever so slightly, eerie card. Maybe it also has something to do with Halloween coming up too. Who knows??? Anyway, I really quite like it.

The digital image is from the Saturated Canary, she's called Honey and she can be found here.

The background papers are from DCWV The Madly in Love (12x12cm paper) Stack but the red paper is just a piece of scrap that I cut to size and ran through the BigShot with my Cuttlebug embossing 'Spots' folder.

I then added some ribbon that I cut into strips and stuck behind the main image and added a Craftwork Cards sentiment to finish it off.

I hope you like my card and thank you for taking the time to visit.

Thanks for stopping by
Hugs, Fae xxx

Starla

Hi there, once more I return this evening (this is the last time, I promise...) I have made one more card that I would like to share with you.

This is not being entered into any blog competitions or blog hops etc. its just something I have made this evening for a friends birthday while I was watching TV.  I plucked two 'ideas' from my Inspiration Jar and they said

1. Use two colours from a paper pad that you haven't used before (even if it looks like they wouldn't go together); and
2. Use a digital stamp that you have purchased in the last month.  I recently purchased this stamp 'Starla' from the Saturated Canary.

I hope you like my card and thank you for taking the time to visit my blog today. Your visits are much appreciated.  If you like or dislike my card, please feel free to leave a comment, all comments are gratefully received.

Good night, for now... until tomorrow, when I will return with more inspiration for you (I hope).

Fifty Shades

Hi 'fifty shades' fans. I thought I would share this little card I made earlier with you all. I just love this image.

It's a digital stamp called 'Grey Tie' from Saturated Canary and you can find it here.

I have read all of the Fifty Shades' books and I just think this would be a cool card for a male or a female.

I hope you like the card and thanks again, for stopping by to visit my craft blog.

Enjoy.
Hugs, Fae xxx

Little 'Blue' Peep

Full version of the front of the card

Well I can't believe another Friday is here already... where does the week go?

I have been convalescing at home for the past month due to health reasons and I can't believe that we are turning the clocks back this week and November is practically upon us. I'll have to get out my book of spells for next week and my broom could do with an airing. Maybe I'll take it for a pre-Halloween (hypothetical) spin this week to blow out any cobwebs.

Anyway onto today's card... I have decided to enter this card into the following challenges:

Fashionista Challenge - Anything Goes
Passion for Promarkers - Pets Theme

Close up view

I started with an 8" by 8" white base and then added some papers from my Grace Taylor 'Blossom' 12 x 12cm scrapbook pad.  The blue paper with the text I am not sure the origin of... sorry! I layered the blue and the circle of brown directly onto the base card and then used a nestie and my Big Shot to cut around the image.  I used my Promarker pens to colour in the digital image (Jules from the Saturated Canary) and then I mounted that to the front of the card too.  I then added all of the embellishments; gemstones; flowers; brad; pins and coloured adhesive pearls, not to mention the Craftwork Cards Happy Birthday Sentiment which seemed to match the shape of the nestie (well...almost).
