 This week's theme over at the  Sweet n Sassy Digi Challenge  is Flag, you're it - so we want to see flags or pennants.

 I used Cocoa's Baby Block, and coloured it using my promarkers.  I have used a new paper for colouring my digis, and am not very happy with its blending ability, so am going baack to Rymans. The dp is DCWV Nana's Nursery and I used a Whimsy die to create the pennant, before adding alphabet stickers.  Some layered ribbon completes it.

And now for today's challenge: 

Bling it On!

Add Bling (rhinestones, pearls, Jewels and etc.) for your creation!

 I used this gorgeous image, Goldfinch collage, and printed it off onto watercolour paper.  Its coloured using my distress markers (fired brick, crushed olive, weathered wood), and I distressed the background using distress inks (aged maghogany, crushed olive,vintage photo and walnut stain), before misting it all with some water to create a mottled effect.  A little tip for you if you want to watercolour digis - if you are finding you ink is running, sliuce the image under running water first, and let it dry.  This way any excess ink will be removed and the image should be fixed.  I used papers from Basic Grey's Pyrus pack and added some chocolate coloured ribbon and pearls.

Here is my card - I do love White on white!!  Shame the exposure setting has broke on my camera so it looks more bluey lilac than white!

I used one of the butterflies from the Everyday Miracles digi set and coloured it in using my promarkers and flexmarkers, before cutting it out.  I embossed the white cardstock using a couple of embossing folders, added some white ribbon and a bow, and popped the butterfly on.  The sentiment is from the Many Thanks digi set, and I split it up.

Sweet n Sassy Digi Challenge

This week's theme over at the  Sweet n Sassy Digi Challenge  is feminine. 

Now for those of you that know me ... I don't really do feminine and lady-like, very much the tomboy!!!  So this was a bit of a challenge for me!

I used Poppies, and coloured the image using my promarkers.  I used a sizzix embossing folder for the white cardstock and added some red gingham ribbon, a hat pin and so flat backed gems.  Nice and simply, but hopefully  feminine and pretty!!

Challenges
I love promarkers-  hat pin
Do You Stack up - use a flower

Sweet n Sassy Digi Challenge

 I am proud to say I have been asked to join the Sweet n Sassy Digi Challenge DT and this is my first challenge for them.

The theme is "favourite holiday", and I have chosen Easter.  I love Easter - we always spend it at my Mum an Dad's and there are usually lots of lambs to feed and play with, as well as the Easter Egg Hunt, a bus rally for the hubby and a bit of a rest for me LOL!!

I used a Cocoa Mouse stamp, Egg-cited Cocoa and coloured him with my promarkers.  The dp is Basic Grey digi paper and I added some ribbon, layered mulberry flowers, and flat pearls.  I think Cocoa looks so sweet popping out of this Easter egg!!

And some Eater pics ...
The girls bottle feeding the orphan lambs ...

Lambs ...

 The egg hunt ...

Hope you find the time to join in, you need to use a digi image, and it would be great if you could use a Sweet n Sassy digi ... you can found them here ;)
