I watercoloured this gorgeous Leanne Ellis image in using distress inks and then inked the edges in dark brown. I love this blue paper with the brown flowers and it goes so well with the pnk spotty paper. I punched some flowers and inked the edges in brown, and added turquoise organza and pink and turquoise gems.
Do take a peek at the other DT blogs. I am on holiday this week so I am sorry but I will not be visiting, so I will catch up with you next week.

I coloured Tilda with my promarkers - still practising shading, and not sure about the pink! As I hae yet to get the octagonal nesties I cut an octagon out and put it at an angle. I added organza ribbon and some punched flowers and a swirl, and some gems in the corner. As there is bling on it I am also entering it for this week's Cute Card Thursday.
I coloured my image in promarkers and added white gel pen to highlight. I kept the layout quite simple, just matting he purple dp so it stood out a bit more. I added some lace and punched some flowers, leaves and a scroll. I am quite pleased with my colouring ... not too bad for an amateur!
I coloured Tilda using promarkers (still working on the blending) and used the scraps from theis Papermania pad, Retro Floral. The ribbon is also a left over bit, and I punched the flowers from the scraps off the scraps!

I watercoloured the iamge and Ellie helped cut it out using my nesties. Ellie chose the papers and wanted the butterfly to show, so we have decoupaged it. Ellie inked the edges of the image and chose the ribbons, the yellow organza doesn't show up brilliantly. We added clear buttons with pink ribbon tied through. Finally I stamped the sentiment.
I watercoloured the image and the background. I have kept it all quite simple, just added a few punched flowers and swirls.
I love these House Mouses - don't they look so cute. I do find House Mouse images quite hard to colour, so I tend to stamp in Sepia and do a bit of shading. I used DCWV Nursery stack for the papers and chose turquoise and lemon as the colour theme. I watercoloured the image and matted it. I embossed the coredinations paper using swiss dots and a buttons border, and then distressed it. I loved the curved paper from a recent Friday Sketcher challenge so used that again. I added yellow organza ribbon and white ric rac, and stamped the sentiment in sepia.
I watercoloured the image, and resisted the urge to put lots of mud on Hamish!! I have kept the sketch simple and only used the rugby ball and buttons for embellishments. I think these K and Co papers are fab for bloke cards. Finally I added a sentiment.
I watercoloured her and used one of my fave K and Co pads for the dp. I kept it to just 2 papers. I added rosebuds to some white mulberry flowers and glimmer misted them. Finally I added some pearls.
I cut out the card shape using my nesties. I have kept it all very simple as it is quite a small card!! I coloured Tilda using my promarkers (I am finally getting used to shading with them!). I added a bit of ribbon and a flower. Ellie has decided that I have made it for her ... its pink!
I don't really do glitter or bling so this was a bit of a challenge for me!! I love this Gorguss Girl ... she is so like both my girls! I coloured her in using promarkers and cut her out using my nesties. I added little heart gems to the dress and hair and gems to the image and flowers. It is quite blingy!!
I made this card for one of Beth's friends who was three recently. I watercoloured thei mage and cut it out using my Nesties labels. I have kept the layout and the embellishments simple as the papers are quite loud!!
I watercoloured thei mage and distressed the background. I used Bsic Grey papers and distressed the edges and inked them with pink and green ink. I added cream lace and flowers, and stamped the sentiment using Sepia ink.
I do love this image and I watercoloured it using antique linen, tea dye and broken china. I cut it out using my nesties and added gloss and baby blue stickles to the bubbles. These papers are lovely for muted tones - definitely sky blue, ecru and tan! I added cream lace for the scalloped part of the sketch (its ecru!) and blue organza ribbon. I added a button and tied more ribbon through it and attached the charm. Finally I punched some flowers. I put it onto an ecru (cream) card base to finish.
I love this Penny Black image and watercoloured it and then added stickles to the bottle to give the impression of shiny glass. I kept the layout quite simple and used my nesties to cut the image out. Finally I added flowers with stickled rose buds and the sentiment.
I watercoloured the image and cut her out and then matted her onto the squares which I cut withmy nesties. I used dp from the same pad for all the elements of the sketch. I punched the flowers and swirls and added pearls. I forgot the ribbon - doh!!! Mojo please come back soon!
I watercoloured Melinda and cut her out (I have just noticed that I forgot a bit doh!!) and matted her onto the dp. I used papers from the same pack for the circles and backing. I added the green ribbon and cut out the letters using my CB Olivia font. I did ponder flowers but they just didn't look right ... so no flowers and a very plain and simple card.
I won this image on the Sugar Bowl Challenge and love it. I coloured it in distress inks and then matted it onto navy blue cardstock. The Dp is My Minds Eye and all matted onto blue cardstock. I added a sentiment stamped straight onto the dp and some green wire.
I have kept it all very simple and used the same cardstock and image for both.
