Whimsy Wednesday inspiration Card

Hi everyone to another sunny Wednesday today my project is a bookmark I made using the fab image from Whimsy Stamps by Stampart Design by Kathryne

Called Little Bear This is a hug

and the sentiment on the other side is also by Kathryne

Grab a Hug Sentiment for Teddy Bear

I coloured the image with copics and polychromos pencils

The DP is from Whimsy Stamps Coutry Cottage Charms by Michelle R Design Papers

all the trimmings are from my stash

I stitched around the bookmark and added some white lace this is a very girly bookmark I live in a house full of males lol so my girly side screams to come out sometimes lol

I inked all around the edges with Mr Holtzs pink ink pad and stitched around the sentiment which is sooo fab and cute I will add I had a nightmare taking a pic of this lol but hey you get the jist.

and the theme this week is 

One For the Boys

I know how you girls love doing mens cards so this us right up your street

When I make a mens card I tend to not put to many embellies on it, not like my ladies cards which I cover in flowers and pins and ribbon lol. But of course the lovely men in our lives just dont get it so keep it simple is my moto for men.

so I coloured this image with copics the paper is from Cuddly Buddly Digi paper 

the ribbon is from my stash and the buttons are punched from a Martha Stewart button punch my most fav for mens cards they are in place of flowers lol.

I added some bakers twine in the same tealy blue and some gems from my stash.

This image if from lili of the Valley and is great for a fathers day card sooo cute

A Little bit of Scrap goes a long way

Hi my crafty chicks hop you are having a nice weekend and the weather has brightened a bit for you. We managed to get my new Gazebo up as the sun shined on and off today and no rain it will probably rain now for the rest of the month so I cant sit out in it lol.

Anyway todays card is called Scraps thats because all the DP and matting layers are all from my scap bin and from the bottom of it I might add, I had a good sort of of my scrap drawer I was very anul about it and sorted it into white paper colour matting paper and patterened paper lol.

but at least it is a bit more manageable I am not very good at throwing my scraps away.

so

So the image I am sorry to say I dont have a clue who it is by I am very sorry for that but it was one I had from ages ago that I stamped at a craft class I only just coloured her last week she was so easy to colour to.

I used copics to colour and polychromas pencils and sansador the DP like I said is out of my scap box and not sure who's it is again it was from a craft class the lace is new and I love it its from Hobby craft they do some lovely lace there all flowers are from my stash that I have not touched for yrs the ribbon is from the yellow paper-mania capsule range I have had for ages two I stitched all around zigzag with my machine and added a few lemon pearls I hope you like my card  I really enjoyed making it and the image is cute must find out who its by I need more like here.

oh and by the way I have just notice my lace is on the wonk and not level grrr will need to sort that it will annoy me otherwise

hugs

oh and please follow my new magnolia blog I have a new card going on there tomorrow so keep a look out
