I used this fab new manga from Sugar Nellie and used my promarkers and copic pens to colour it in, before cutting it out. I embossed some white core cardstock with my spider's web embossing folder and sanded it. The papers are Basic Grey Oliver, and finally I added some little brads.
I used Snowman and son from the fall/holidays release, and you can find it here. Aren't they a couple of cute snowies?!! I coloured them with my pens and then cut them out using my nesties. I added glamour dust to the hats and as snow. I love adding ribbon and this satin and organza one is fab for Christmas.
I coloured this fab SN manga using my promarkers and copics, and then did a dot background. I followed the sketch over at Everybody-Art-Challenge and used the Pocketfull of Posies peach and aqua colour challenge to help me decide my colours. The papers are very glitterly and strokeable so I just inked the edges and added some punched flowers and a ribbon and bow.
as you can see hubby has taken over half my work space with his bus modelling!! When he first did the room it was abouta quarter of my desk ... it has doubled in size, and often I have to move his things off my work space before I can start ... suggestions?!!
The image is a frebie from Polycraft .. I love these bears. I coloured them using copics and then added liquid pearls and stickles. The dp is new (bought at Penrith Crafts while I was away for Samantha's wedding) and it is scrummy, all pearlised and very strokeable! I added some cream ribbon and flowers.
Miss Thang is coloured using my promarkers. I had forgotten about this BG pack that I have - plenty of green in it :) I placed the image and the bands from it at an angle ... she has enough attitude to cope with it!! I added some card candy and flowers from my stash to complete it.
and she offering 2 lovely prizes from her latest Cuthbert and Kiki range,
I have no idea who the bear is ... a friend stamped some for me ages ago! I coloured it using my pens and simply matted it on to cardstock and a piece of dp (again unknown!)
And you guessed it ... I just had to use this gorgeous Mermaid Tilda from the latest kit! She is masked on to the seaweed from the same kit. I coloured her using distress inks and then added lots of stickles!! I have kept it all simple as I really didn't want to hide the gorgeous dp ... it is so sparkly and glittery and I thought the circles would work well with the bubbles. I added some co-ordinating lace - it is supposed to be wavy! Non of my flowers looked right on ... so it looks a bit plain, I think I need to add to it .. .so another shopping trip is in order!
This cute little boy is coloured in using my promarkers and copics. The papers are by Smirk and I added a tag I found floating at the bottom of my embellishment basket. I used card candy to finish it off.
Danni and Bella are coloured using promarkers and copics, and I cut them out using my nesties and inked the edges. I added glamour dust to Bella's hat and stocking. The ribbon is recycled from a huge basket of smellies I got ages ago, and I added gems to the flowers rather than charms. All the papers are faux stitched using white gel pen.
The image is coloured using promarkers and I cut it out using my nesties. I inked round the image and managed to get it everywhere! I punched the dp using a EK success punch and added a white ribbon and bow. the sentiment was stamped directly onto the dp. To compensate for no flowers I added 3 deep blue pearls!
I coloured the images using my promarkers and cut them out (masking turned out to be too difficult today LOL!!). I distressed the papers with my Tim Hltz tool and inked the edges. The punch is a Martha Stewart one. I was going to add flowers but they looked too cluttered so just the ribbon. I made the card slightly bigger than my card blank (dopey one I am!!0 so I have to now find an envelope to fit!
Here is my card ...
I used one of my new Kenny K images, coloured her and cut her out. The scalloped edges are created using a Martha Stewart punch, and I added organza ribbon and pearls.
I adore these cute bears from LOTV, and just had to use one for this challenge. He is coloured using my pens and I fauxed stitched the image and darker dp. I punched snowflakes, added card candy and gems, and some gingham ribbon.
I wone 4 Elisabeth Bell images not long ago and this was one of them. I coloured her using my pens and then followed the sketch over at Sketch Saturday. I added some little gems to it, and a CB charm and number 2. Its very pink, so I reckon Carly over at Charisma Cardz'll love it!!!
The InStyle Stamps design team are having a surprise blog hop to celebrate our boss Virginia's birthday. We have all made a tag with a letter on it to spell out a banner.
I adore this Mo Manning image ... it screams summer, although if that were my girls the ice-cream would be half melted and all over them!! I coloured the image using my pens and mattted it on to co-ordinating cardstock. The punched border was created using a Martha Stewart punch, and I added orange organza ribbon.
This is Jocelyn, and doesn't she look like she is having fun in the leaves! I have 2 little girls that love the big piles of leaves ... and jumping in them!! I coloured the image in using promarkers and copics, before inking the edges with an off gold ink pad. The papers are Basic Grey and I added a ribbon and bow, and a layered flower. The scalloped edge is created using a Martha Stewart punch. 
This card uses the image, Harvest Veggies. I love squashes and we have a farm near by that grows about 15 different types ... yummy!! Again the image is coloured using my pens ... it took some playing around to get the colours near the correct colour! The image and mat are cut using my deckled nesties and the image's edges inked up. I added orange raffia for texture and some organza ribbon.
I coloured this gorgeous image using my promarkers. The layout is really simpl, just a punched border, a couple of flowers and a ribbon. As the ribbon is gingham and the papers are BAsic Grey I am going to enter this card into this week's Basic Grey Challenge - gingham (another not fond of thing!)

I haven't got any vivid blue papers so rather than using the cocktail, I used the lagoon photo! Tilda is masked onto the dandelion and coloured using distress inks. I was slightly distracted by a small person (who will remain nameless!) and coloured Tilda's dungarees in the wrong blue!!! I distressed the image and the Basic Grey Two Scoops papers and added stickles to the dandelion. Some flowers, pearls and swirls to finish it off.
This image is from Meljen's Designs and it has been donated to help raise awareness of Michelle's accident. I coloured it using my pens. I used BG Urban Prairie papers and matted them onto red cardstock. The punched border is made using a Martha Stewart punch.
