Think Pink

Good Morning lovelies!

I was very luck to be invited to Guest Design this month at

The Sisterhood Of Crafters

The theme for the first challenge is "Think PINK"

(In honour of Breast Cancer Awareness Month)

As some of you will know, this is a cause very dear to my heart as

my mum had breast cancer a couple of years ago! Happily, she is a survivor and

we are greatful to the medical teams & support staff who looked after her so very well!

So, on to my card!

I coloured up the image with my Promarkers.

She's a freebie image I got a little while ago via the Saturated Canary

Facebook Group! Isn't she a stunner!

Here's a closer look at her!

I cut out the image with a Spellbinders die & inked with

 a little Worn Lipstick distress ink,

The papers I've used are from First Edition, Bird Cage Stack

The plain paper is by American Crafts.

The border was created using a Martha Stewart Doily Punch.

The gorgeous Faux Silk ribbon is from my stash.

As you can see the inside of the card is decorated too!

I hope you can play along in the Think PINK Challenge.

A little CAS card to share today!

The pretty image is "Keys Please"from Saturated Canary.

Just perfect for a young lady who has passed her driving test!

Well done Kayley! You're a star! 

I've used pink gingham cardstock as the base for my A6 card.

I coloured her up with my promarkers.

A few little rounded corners, some punched hearts 

popped up on some shaker tape & a computer generated sentiment.........

et voila!

Good morning all

It's time to play in a brand new challenge over at

Here's what I made

I've used my own image this time as I was itching to colour this little beauty up!

She is "Jumper" from Saturated Canary. 

Our sponsor this time is

Stitchy Bear Digi Outlet

I used the sketch from Sketchy Colours

for the layout of my card.

Here's a closer look at my image

I coloured her up with Promarkers & flexmakers.

Ain't she sweet!

The sentiment is by Craftwork Cards

I also added a seam binding, triple bow, some tiny little pearls from Meiflower

& a little Hope awareness ribbon charm. 

I haven't done anything with the inside of this card yet! 

Not sure if I'll decorate it inside or add an insert with a nice verse!

I hope you can join us to play in this challenge!

Live Laugh Love Breathe

Good morning lovely blog readers!

The card I have to share with you is one I made for a bride to be!
The lady in question is one of the girls I work with who is getting
married on the lovely island of Majorca in June.
As the wedding as abroad, and not everyone can attend,

we had a works lunch out in advance to wish her luck for her big day.

The image I have used is a specail image called 

 Breathe from Saturated Canary.

I don't think this one is available in the shop.

I love Krista's images & I was nervous about colouring this one

however, I am happy with the result I achieved.

I still need to work on the hair a bit though!

I kept it fairly simple with only the words, which were mounted on foam pads,

for embellishments.

A closer look at the image

Here you can see the inside of the card.

As there were a lot of people who wanted to write good luck

messages in the card, I added two panels inside.

Glad to say the bride to be was delighted with her card

& all of the messages written inside it!

Good morning all!

Todays card is for the challenge over at

"Make It Girly"

The image I have used is Ice Cream & Pickles

You can't get any more girly than that!

The design paper is from Craftwork Cards, the textured green from 

American Crafts & the Kraft, from my stash.

The seniment is part of a sentiment ticket from

Just Inklined & the seam binding is from my stash

I coloured the image with a mix of Flexmarkers & Promarkers,

the colours are the kind of thing my friend likes & she's

just finished up work before the birth of her baby!

Good evening all!

Here's a special little lady, made for a very special lady!

She also carries a very special message!

If you look at her t shirt,  you'll see she's sporting a 

Breast Cancer Awareness Ribbon

This is something very close to my heart at the moment.

Please, if you don't already do it, 

Check Your Boobies!

I love Saturated Canary images but I didn't own one until a few days ago!

This little stunner 'Boobie Love' was a freebie! 

Yes I said a freebie from here!

Isn't she just gorgeous! 

All that is asked of you is to become a follower of Saturated Canary's

Blog before you download her!

I coloured her up with promarkers!

The Design Papers I've used are from Craft Works

The layout was based on this weeks sketch from

Papertake Weekly

Here's a closer look at the little lady!

I cut her out with an oval nestie then

 matted her onto a scalloped oval

The sentiment was from Rainbow Echo Designs.

I also cut this out with an oval nestie & inked 

while it was still in the die!

The little flower was made with a Marianne Die &

the leves were made using a Martha Stewart Punch

I also decorated the inside of the card!

I hope you like my little card!
