Berry Happy!

Well today's card comes with some very exciting news....I'm thrilled to bits, and highly honoured to say that I've joined the girls over at Aud Sentiments as a new DT member.   *TC now dancing around the room*


So today's card is my very 1st DT card...I think that deserves a toast, well yours may need to wait until after work, but hey I'm celebrating, & I've just broken up for my holiday too! ;)
For this challenge it's a nice and easy one...A project or card with any sentiment.
We're sponsored by DtsArt, they are giving the winner 2 single digital stamps.

I'm using their lovely Pari Berry Fairy. Isn't she gorgeous, I wish I had such lovely big eyes! lol.
I've coloured her with my ProMarkers, & added a bit of fairy dust (aka glitter!)
She's sat upon a gorgeous lush strawberry, one of my favourite fruits, and now I have the song Strawberry fields in my head!


The paper is what I recoloured some time ago when my mum wanted some red dotty paper. The Strawberries are Miss Mint's. The flowers are images cut out and layered. I've used Sizzix elegant texture plate for the background & the following dies - Marianne Design Creatables Ribbon Border, Joy Crafts floral flourishes and spellbinders nestabilities circles & scalloped circles. 
The sentiment has been printed out from my PC.


I don't know about you, but it's got me feeling in the mood for summer, and some tasty strawberries ;)

Oldie but a goodie Challenge- Things with wings - 6months + Paper, texture plate, Ribbon die 
Top Tip Tuesday - Dig out the old - 6months + Paper, texture plate, Ribbon die

21st Birthday

A special young lady shall be turning 21 very soon, and boy has that time flown by!
This particular birthday is the whole reason how I stumbled across digi stamping. I'd been looking for quite some time for something for my Niece's 21st birthday, and when I saw Bodacious Bev from KennyK I knew my search was over. The image reminded me of my Niece, and the lil hottie she is ;) It also introduced me to the wonderful world of digi stamping.

The lovely Bev has been coloured with my Pro Markers. I've turned her into a bunny girl by adding some bunny ears, & then decoupaged her.


I'd fallen in love with cheesecloth, which I've seen on lots of your lovely cards, but I couldn't find any. So in an attempt to make my card textured I used a bit of everything...feathers, lace, paper lace organza, & angel hair, along with lots of layers. I'd also fallen in love with the hat pins that are very popular at the moment, again I couldn't find any in my local craft shop, so I thought I'd have a go at making my own. I was quite pleased with the results.



The hat pins sparkle quite nicely, along with the organza, and the bit of glitter I added to Bev's bodice & earing. 

I decided to make it into an easel card. It just needs a verse now, & and a matching box.


I would like to enter the following challenges

Digi doodle challenge - 107 - bingo - Choice of 3 options! Flowers, Pearls, 3 different papers, or Flowers, something new (angel hair, organza, pins, butterflies) lace or A bit of sparkle, something new, Pearls.

Thanks for looking, and your much appreciated comments. Apologies for the lack of blog love this week, I've been trying to get up to date in the real world, sadly has to be done, so that I can play in blog, & craft land! I shall be back loving soon! lol

T.T.F.N, hugs

Bunny Girl Birthday Wishes

Another Male birthday card! This one is for a special 70th Birthday. I've used one of my favourite images Bodacious Bev from Kenny K. I added some bunny ears before I coloured & cut her out, so she's now a hot bunny girl. 
The papers are from one of my favourite digi scrapbooking sites, Peppermint Creative. These were from the twinkle toes kit, but I've recoloured them to blue, to co-ordinate with the colours I used for Bev's basque. 
Shelly's Images challenge this week was to use, or should I say not use any dies or punches...Oooo tough one I thought. How do I add elements to a card without my beloved dies?! Lol.  I sat for some time browsing my digi scrapbooking kits for elements. Finally, help came from a digi kit called colour of music by Julie Marie Designs. From this kit I used the record, stars & ticket. I added the 70 to the middle of the record, & Happy Birthday to the ticket before I cut out all these elements by hand. They've then been added with silicone glue so that they stood out on the card.
