Cat in a China Cup - Cupcake Crafts Guest DT

Well today is not only my first week as Guest DT for Cupcake Craft, but makeover day for the blog too... It has a gorgeous new look so make sure you check it out!!!!  This weeks challenge is something beginning with C. This can be a colour, item or an image... Here is mine...


The image is Kitty in a Cup from Tiddly Inks (too cute I know).  I've coloured in simply with promarkers (Ice Grey 1,2,4, Blossom, China Blue, Cobalt Blue, and Blender).  The deep blue pearlescent card is from Anna Marie designs and the check and pale blue is from Pink Petticoat (Of course).  The tiny gems are from my stash (from the days I use to do nail art). I've sewn around the edges ( very roughly) with my little sewing machine ( I think I really do need some practice but it only has one speed... very fast... so it's hard to keep even vaguely straight).  I do quite like it, especially the colour...

Make sure you check out the rest of the DTs creations

Hope you like what I have done

Spring Chick

I'm thinking that I must have been reading Mary and Andrea's mind for this months Ribbon Girl Challenge when earlier in the week I ordered the Ribbon Kit in yellow, as it couldn't have been more perfect for the Green & Yellow challenge..  I am also combining this with this weeks Penny Black challenge which is Spring is Sprung, Sketch n Stash #57 Sketch and DYSU #11 - Add a Bow.  Here is the card..



The image is Penny Blacks Spring Chick which I picked up from the sale stamps at Hobby craft a couple of years ago after Easter and I have coloured in with pro-markers ( satin, tan, blender, blossom, buttercup, tulip yellow, ice grey 1).  The tail is finished off with a little bob tail made from the white pom poms cut up....

I've been fairly bold on the colour scheme, and I've used some pearlescent chocolate brown paper from Anna Marie Designs and the yellow paper is MME Stella & Rose, and I've use one of the Martha Stewart Border punches as well as some of the yellow ribbon from the kit from the Ribbon Girl.  It's finished off with chocolate brown card candy and a simple sentiment from "Tiny Sentiments" by wood ware.

Hope you like it

Man of the Match

I'm on a roll tonight and I'm here with my entry into this weeks Cards For Men sketch challenge and CES #27 Cards for Men. This card is for one of the lads at work's birthday tomorrow.  So here is the card.


I've use a Papermania image and coloured in with promarkers ( Cool Grey 3-5, Lipstick red, berry red, Burgundy, almond, dusky pink, buttercup and mustard) and then cut around it leaving a very fine border.  I've used the Promarker card I picked up from Anna Marie designs yesterday and no bleeding (yippee!!!).. Following the sketch I have used Pink Petticoat papers from the Big Fella collection, and on the stripe I imported it into word and layered it with white writing so it would leave a void in the stripes.  I have then gone around the letters with a black fine liner in a dash fashion to make it stand out.  The Footballs are made using a wood ware clear stamp from the sports set that have been stamped using stazon onto white shrink plastic.

Thanks for looking today.  Hope you like it
