Inky Impressions :: Flourish and Faux

Good evening, It's time for another Inky Impressions challenge and this one set by the lovely Lisa is "Flourish and Faux" .... Unfortunately I "failed" on the flourish part really... unless you count the streamers IN the piccy... but check out my faux buttons and stitching!!

I have used the beautiful new stamp Zoe's Birthday cupcake (still on sale at the "show special" price!!!) .. and the sentiment is a new Inky one too! I want to enter this into the Copic Creations challenge... For this card I decided to make a single layer card and so I used one of my favourite papers... Neenah 352GSM, the only thing I don't like is it feathers a bit... my absolute favourite paper is Xpress It blending card... although thanks to Copic Creations I've sent off an order to try out that Cryogen paper! :D

I'm entering this into the Anything Goes - Pink and Brown challenge

Inky Impressions:: Easel card challenge

Good evening! It's time for a new Inky Impressions Challenge which has been set by the very lovely Annette... so can you guess what she wants us to do?? Yup that's right .. She wants us all to make an easel card!!

I have made a mini little easel card using Hazel baking cookies...

Here's a closer look at the gorgeous Hazel!!

Inky Impressions :: Winter Wonderland challenge

It's my blogoversary ... please scroll down to enter my candy giveaway:D

Good evening.. It's Wednesday and that means..... yup!! time for a new Inky Impressions challenge to start :D This week it is a Winter Wonderland theme and I have used this gorgeous image of Lili with her bunny .. I thought she would look extra cute with glasses and she does indeed :D I also used a charm and some dew drops.. all of which are available in the Inky store!

.. I think my snowflake, swiss dots on the circle, colour scheme and Lili's clothing work into the theme of Winterwonderland.. although I must admit making winter cards when it's humid as anything here is a little challenging! LOL :D

I coloured Lili in with Copics and gave her glasses with a multiliner :D
Here's a closer look....

I followed the sketch over at Friday Sketchers... although it's a little skewed due to the different shape of the card... but I think you can still see the sketch OK in there!! :D

I am also entering ...
Pile it on challenge which is all about cute children - tick (Lili is very cute!)
The Craft Your Days away challenge is "Anything Goes" :D
Papertake Weekly Challenge is "cold and frosty morning"
the Cute Card Thursday Challenge is "out with the old" .. I have decided to use up my boxes full of scraps.. and that spotty paper has been in there for about 4 years... :D one of the bits I love but have not put onto a card! LOL
