Bellarific Friday- We'll always have Paris!

Hey people! It's Bellarific Friday again and last week's challenge was a v cool black and white photo (see below)...

I used Opal The Optimist coloured with copics. This is my first time doing a black and white image and I LOVED doing it! I masked Opal out and stamped in PTI's Eiffel Tower on top so it appeared behind her. The sentiment is PTI also. Papers are MME- it's like they were made for this card!

Here's a close up of Opal

Bellarific Friday- Love Ya!

Can't believe it's Friday already! Here I am with another Bellarific Friday challenge which was to use the sketch below...

Here is the totally adorable Mo Manning's Love Ya.  She is just the cutest don't you think? The sentiment that comes with her is just perfect to be stamped inside! I've coloured with copics and usual lyra shadow. Papers are LOTV cut out with stitched square dies done to give a patchwork feel. Number 3 is Dienamic By The Number die. Doodlebug sequins added- I love how they seem to have a colour that matches any paper! How do they do that?!

Here's your cutie close up

MFT A La Mode Key To My Heart

Hallo! Here is a card I made for my hubbie for Valentine's Day but forgot to post...

I've used MFT's A La Mode Key To My Heart. She's coloured with copics with a black gel pen used for her shoes. I cut the PTI "forever" out in white cardstock and then glued it on to chipboard and added lots of Stickles to it. The heart strings are a Simon Says Stamp die. "In my heart" is a PTI sentiment.

Close up!

Bellarific Friday- Stamp of the Month: Birthday Hamster!

Hey my crafty friends! How are you all? 

Today's Bellarific Friday's challenge was "USE WASHI OR RIBBON". The DT were also tasked with showcasing Em's Stamp of the Month which is..... Mo Manning's Birthday Hamster! Old Hammie here is 20% off the WHOLE MONTH folks!

Birthday Hamster is coloured with copics and some white watercolour pencil added here and there for highlights. I used a copic multiliner to do all the dotty shading- I haven't done that sort of shading since my Art A Level so I thought it was time to bring it back!! Papers are Fancy Pants. 

Here's your close up

Here is your sketch for next week's challenge. Reminds me of patchwork, no?

Happy Anniversary!

Hey everyone! Happy Monday! 

Today I thought I'd share a LOTV card I made for my in-laws...
