Magnolia 'Tilda with Little Pocket'

Evening all,

Just thought I would drop in to show a card I have made a for a friend’s birthday. 

 I put my time to good use last week and I am organised for once lol.

My friend is a crafter and another big fan of Magnolia stamps and easel cards

and her favourite colours are pink and purple. I adore Tilda with Little Pocket

and thought it was a great stamp where I could combine both colours. 

 I am also really into this deep purple satin ribbon at the moment.

 

Copics I used are:

 Skin: E21, E00, E000, R20

Hair: E57, E53, E23, E51

Jump Suit: R83, R81, RV000

Tulips: V09, V06, V04, V01

Fence: E43, E42, E41, E40

Grass & Stems: YG99, YG95, YG91

 Pencils: Black, Dark Umber, Burnt Ochre, Tuscan Red, Sienna Brown

Thank you for visiting my blog.

La La Land Crafts 'Faerie Marci'

Morning all,

It’ time for inspiration Monday over at  the La La Land Crafts Blog

This week the theme is 'Pastel Colours'.  I decided to colour with pink because it is my favourite colour (you may have guessed that by now lol). I picked Faerie Marci. She is coloured with Copic Markers and Prisma Pencils. The photo doesn't really show it that well but she has been  blinged  up with some stickles on her wings and a few clear gems.

Saturated Canary 'Princess Zella'

Hello everyone,

I have had another crafty afternoon today as it has been snowing most of the day,

although it hasn’t settled. There is nothing better than sitting crafting whilst it is

freezing cold outside. I have a busy week ahead of me so I have spent this week

orqanising myself so that all the upcoming birthday cards and DT cards are done.

Today I am posting a Saturated Canary card. I was given this digi for Christmas, but this is the first time I have had a chance to ink her up. It took me hours to colour her, although I think I still need a bit more practice. I am also trying out a few new colours with my copics and it is not quite the shade of purple I was hoping for, I think the problem is it is too pink. Unfortunately this shade of purple doesn’t photograph very well either so apologies for the quality of the photo.

Copics I have used are:

Skin: E21, E00. E000, R20

Hair: E37, E35, E33, E31

Dress: V09, V06, V04

Pencils:  Black, Dark Umber

Saturated Canary Digi Stamp: Princess Zella

Die: Nellies Multi Corner

Ribbon,Lace, Pearls and Flowers are from my crafty stash.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

 

Take care

Hello my lovelies,

I have so enjoyed my time off so far this week, although I had a catastrophe on Monday, the handle of my Grand Calibur snapped, that sent me into a right panic, but all is not lost I have a replacement on the way and Phil has temporarily fixed the broken one so I can still use it phew!

 It is time for a new challenge over at Marvelous Magnolia and the theme is Floral Bonanza yaay another challenge right up my street.
For my card I decided to stay with the theme and  use the lovely
‘Tilda Loves Flowers stamp’.
 I have used Copics and Prisma Pencils to colour her.

 

Copics I have used are:

Skin: E21, E00. E000, R20

Hair: E43, E42, E40

Dress: R83, R81, RV000

Flowers: R85, R81
