Crafty Catz DT - Paper Piecing

Hi everyone,
 
Here's to another Friday challenge over at Crafty Catz. This weeks theme has been set by the lovely Jac who wants you all to use Paper Piecing. We are sponsored by Bugaboo this week
7 images of winners choice
So this week I used the sponsor image 'Stella's magical substance' I love these images and the matching sentiment - it makes me laugh so much.
 
The papers are both offcuts left over from other projects; the back is from Stampin Up and the pink is from a free paper pad I got with a craft magazine. The image is coloured with promarkers in Ivory, Blush, Cool Grey 1, Duck Egg, Maroon and Burnt Sienna. The buttons are from stash.
 
So there we go. I hope you like it and I hope you will join us this week at Crafty Catz. Until next time, happy crafting!

Crafty Catz DT - Anything Goes

Good Morning!
 
So another Friday is here and another month is almost over - eek! Never mind. I do hope everyone is keeping well and is going to join us this week at Crafty Catz for our Anything Goes week.
 
We are sponsored this week by Stampin Boutique and Bunny Zoe Crafts
3 Digi Images of Winner's Choice

 

Aren't you the lucky ones? lol! we we're given images from the Stamping Boutique to play with but I decided to dig out an older image of theirs which I already had printed.
The image was coloured with whisper pens this week and I teamed up the image with some new papers from Basic Grey's pad - Life of the party. The ribbon and buttons are from stash and as always a bit of stickles glitter to finish the design.
 
I hope you like it and I look forward to seeing you over at Crafty Catz this week.

I would like to enter this into the following challenges:

Crafty Catz DT - Cream, Green and One other colour

Morning all,

Another Friday and another challenge at Crafty Catz. This weeks challenge is set by Christine who would love to see you use Cream, Green and One other colour. We are sponsored this week by the lovely team at Alota who are offering our winner a gift certificate:
My card this week is:
My papers are all scraps, the cream paper is called Christmas scroll, but I don't know what the green floral print was called. The image is a woodware bubble flower, coloured with promarker in china blue and paper pieced with scraps of green for the leaves. The blue flowers are punched out using a small woodware punch from scraps of blue paper which I then darkened using Distress Ink faded jeans. The gems are all from stash.
 
So that's it from me, hope you like it and don't forget to stop by the other girl's blogs to see their fab creations. Until next time happy crafting!

Crafty Catz DT - Lady in Red

Good Morning,
 
How are we all surviving with this weather? isn't it grim. My thoughts are with any of you who are suffering from the flooding - I can only imagine your distress.
 
Friday only means one thing round here and that's a new DT card for Crafty Catz. This weeks theme has been set by Carol whose theme is Lady in Red. We have two fab sponsors this week - Mei Flower and Rick St Dennis who provided our stunning images to play with this week.
£20 Voucher or £20 of Goods

So on with my card this week:

The image I chose is called Valentines Hat. I coloured her this week with watercolour pencils. The spotted DT paper is a magazine freebie, the sentiment, by Coco Chanel I printed. Marianne Dies Circle. Pearls and flowers from stash and leaves are a woodware pinch.
 
I hope you like it and don't forget to swing by the other girls blogs to see their fabulous creations.
