Shelly's Images Challenge - Buttons, Bows and Brads

There's a new challenge over on Shelly's Images Blog and this week it's Buttons Bows and Brads (use at least two of them). I've actually used all three and I think it turned out great. Hope you all like it too.
The image I used was a free one from Shelly some time last year (she is very generous) and I recoloured it in a free programme called Printmaster Express, the actual image was black. The paper, card, buttons bow and brads are all from my stash.

Doodle Dragon Studios Challenge " Party in Colours"

I have just purchased an amazing 2nd Blogiversary deal from Dustin Pike over at Doodle Dragon Studios, over 200 images for just $20 .
The image above is from the "Party Monster Collection " and is called "Cupcake Monster" It is coloured with Copic Ciao pens, the sentiments are computer generated and the paper, ribbons, card and bling are from my stash. I am entering it in this weeks challenge "Party in colours" over on the Doodle Dragon Challenge Blog.

Easter

It's ages since I posted on my blog, we have been busy renovating our house and getting it ready to put up for sale so I haven't had much time for crafting. We have nearly finished now, but Easter is upon us and I just had to make something for my grandsons.
It's simple but effective and they will love the "Pogo Bunny" from Dustin Pike over at Doodle Dragon studios.
One of my grandsons can't eat choclate so I always buy them something else, this year it's marshmallows, which they both love.

Michelle Perket Studio Challenge - Ribbon and Lace

I made this card today for the Michelle Perkett Studio Tuesday Challenge "Ribbons and Lace"

I have coloured the image with my Copic Ciao pens and the Background Paper is from K & Company "Classic K McKenna", the sentiment is from Cuddly Buddly, and the Lace, Ribbon, Jewels and card are from my stash

Just a couple of Cards

Hi,
Just a short post today we are in the middle of renovating the house and I have been helping out.Had a few days off to make some cards and here are the first two.

This one uses a Michelle Perkett image for a 30th Birthday card for one of my Daughter's friends


and this one uses a Bugaboo image and is for my Brother who is a big "Manchester Untied" fan


I think the soccer nut image is hilarious hope you do too.

I will try and take photos of the other cards later today but I have to drive to the coast (Gold Coast, Qld) to see some friends later.

Special Leaving Card

My daughter rang today and asked if I could make a leaving card for one of her colleagues and that the lady liked animals. Well I couldn't resist using this set of Digital images pre coloured by Dustin Pike of Doodle Dragon Studios. Hope she likes it?

The sentiment is computer generated abnd the card and paper used are from my scrap stash.the final touch was glittery bubble curcles by Papermania which was a present from my Secret Santa on a forum I am a member of in England
