I am having trouble sleeping ... so when I am wide awake at 5am ... yep ... I am crafting!!!
I stamped Jelly Pip from Sugar Nellie onto kraft cardstock and coloured her in using prisma pencils. I paper peiced her waistcoat top using some of the dp which is SU and I LOVE it ... shame it is runnig out :( I kept the card reasonably embellishment free ... just some cream satin ribbon and a doilly heart that I distressed with antique linen distress ink to make it look cream.
Challenges:
Craft Your days away - paper piecing
Craft your passion - paper peicing
Stamp with fun - sketch
CES challenge - blues and cream
One Stop Craft challenge - colour on kraft
And one for the boys ...
I coloured this Kenny K image up a couple of weeks ago ... and lost it!!! So having found it I got a card together this morning. The dp is Stell Rose and I added a TH weather clock die cut from grungepaper and painted with black soot distress stain, a gear left unstained and a journalling ticket that I tore and layered using an ideology paper clip.

Hi Cathy! Your masculine card is really cute. I like your weathered clock and gear die cuts behind the layers of really nicely coordinated papers. Your stamped and colored image is very well done! Beautiful shading. I also really like your torn ticket held with the little mini paper clip! Thanks for joining us at Simon Says Stamp and Show. <3 Candy
So gorgeous hun :o)
have a lovely evening...big hugs Vicky xx
Hi Cathy, what a fantastic card. I love the image and your papers are perfect. Thanks for joining in with my challenge over cupcake craft this week. Hugs, Denise x
Visiting from Tuesday Throwdown. Your coloring on the girl image is wonderful. Like the paper piecing. Like all things Pirate so I like the boy card also. Recently created a birthday card with artwork that my daughter created of Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow and had paper tearing going on but it was posted earlier than the Tuesday Throwdown challenge of paper tearing so I created a new card. You can check out the Johnny Depp as captain Jack Sparrow Pirate card & banana card on my blog if you like.
