Hi - hope your having a great weekend. I'm back today to share another digital image I coloured up.
This one is Power Poppy's newest digi called Garden Fireworks - just love this, as I love all of her images.
After downloading I made several different sizes to print out. I like doing this because I never know what dies or layout I might use, so having different sizes available makes it easier in the end.
So, with saying that I used one of the smaller images. I'm also going to enter this into this months challenge - Pencil me in!
Sorry for the bit of shadowing in the picture. I took this outside rather than in my shadow box. I love how white the white is in the natural light.
I cut the image out using one of the dies from spellbinders Captivating Squares. I then coloured the image using Caran D'Ache pencils and blended with gamsol. For my next layer under the image I used spellbinders ornate labels one embossing folder. The folder is an A2 size, but I cut off the bottom portion once embossed and just kept the top portion.
Designer paper is a piece of 12 x 12 MME - Penny Lane. It's very lightweight paper so I layered this onto a piece of white card stock before adhering to the card base. I wrapped some pink shimmery ribbon around the center portion of the card, popped the image up using some foam tape then adhered a tiny bow in the bottom corner of the image. Added some pearls and glitter to the flowers.
A beautiful card for any occasion. I think I'm just going to keep the liner blank and add it to my sale basket.
Thanks for visiting today.

I had a 4 day weekend this past Easter weekend, and I accomplished so much in 'card making'. I'm working diligently on my Mother Day card orders. I saw that Power Poppy's challenge this month is "Pop of Pastel' so decided to whip something up that falls into that category and enter it into their challenge. You can see all the details for the challenge here.
I'm using Marcella's digital image called "dancing with daffodils'. This is one image that I will never get tired of colouring. So many different colour combo's you could use, I can't wait to colour more.
After printing off the image, I pulled out my copics to colours - but first I cut out the image using one of the dies in the spellbinder A2 devine eleoquence set. Next I cut some MME paper using spellbinders labels 28, which was then layered onto a piece of Memory Box paper.
I used some deep purple ribbon to pick up the colour in the purple flowers, which was tied on a diagonal. Finished off with some glitter and some clear baubles from PTI.
Supplies:
stamp - Power Poppy digital - dancing with daffodils
ink - printer, copics - Y11, YR0000, YR000, YR01, YR02, YR12, YR15, YG01, YG13, YG17, YG67, V01, V12, V15, E21, E23, E25, E27, B0000, BG0000

Well that's it for tonight. Lots more to share, see you again real soon,

Hi everyone. You are probably wondering where I have been (or maybe not!). Well I was on vacation since May 16th, just returned back to work today. Bill and I took a trip up to Sault Ste. Marie Ontario. We did (well Bill did) lots of picture taking along the shores of Lake Superior.
We spent a lot of our time doing the hiking trails in Lake Superior Provincial Park. It is so beautiful up there. As you can image because of the harsh winter they still have ice/snow along the lake edges, some of them are huge like small glaciers! There is also snow along some of the trails that are in the hills and in the interior of the forest areas. Upon returning home on thursday night, I noticed that my gardens needed some attending to. Because of the warmer weather and rain we had while gone, everything is up and in bloom (and so were the weeds!). So needless to say I spent a few days tending to the gardens.
So tonight I decided that I needed to get some cards made. I decided play along with the challenge going over on
Powerpoppy's blog.
I used the gladioli digi image.
After printing off the image I coloured using copics.
I then cut out the image using Spellbinders Opulent Ovals - I actually cut out the image before cutting - I've learned from past experience that something can go wrong and you ruin your coloured image!
I layered my image on a piece of light lime green that was cut using the larger die from the same set. I used dimensionals behind the image to lift it a bit.
Here is a picture of the glitter, since it's hard to see in the above picture.
Supplies:
Stamp - Powerpoppy digi - gladioli
Paper - Memory box, lime green bazzill, white, SU Cameo Coral
Ink - copics - YG01, YG03, YG25, R30, R32, R35, Y38 (stamens), YG0000 (shading around the flowers)
Misc - silk ribbon, pearls, glitter, MME enamel dots
Thanks for your visit today. Have a wonderful week!
Pauline
