The Crafting Cafe "Favourite Colours"

Good Morning lovely bloggers!

This ismy second post today! Scroll down for my Just Inklined card,

or hit home then scroll down!

Here I am with my DT card for the second challenge at

The Crafting Cafe 

Our theme for the challenge this month is

Favourite colours!

I made this card for a very special lady who was celebrating a 

very special birthday last month!

Our very own lovely boss lady Nikki turned 40! 

(that's 40 exclamation mark, not 401 as it looks in my typeface!)

Whoop Whoop!

Luckily we share a favourite colour so it was easy peasy!

Our sponsor this month is the lovely Teri Sherman of

Delicious Doodles!

The team were all super excited to be working with Teri's fabulous images.

The image I have used is Steampunk Fairy

I think she's just absolutely gorgeous!

I've coloured her with a mix of Flexmarkers & Promarkers.

I've added some stickles to her wings for a bit of glitter!

My papers are Do Crafts & I've had them forever in my stash.

(I think I bought them when I attended one of Nikki's demos at a local craftshop!)

The cogs are die cut with Spellbinders Dies.

I  used my chalk inkpads to lightly distress,

The ribbons were chosen from my local fabric shop & the fabby little tiny

button brads were purchased at Southfield Stationers shop.

The font I have used is Ornatique & you can download it free here!

I can't wait to see what you create for this months challenge!

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:
A&T Emeral Faeries - Bling
Paper Minutes - Real Metal (My button brads)
Artisitc Inpirations - Metal

Created With Love - Button Up ( my buttons are brads hope that's okay!)

Crafting With Lady Victoria!

Good afternoon bloggers!

Long time no see my lovelies!

I've been meeting myself coming backwards again so,

 I must apologise if I haven't visited your blog lately!

I promise I'll try to rectify that really soon!

Todays card is my Crafting For All Seasons DT project!

Where our theme for Challenge #46 is

Die Cuts & Punches

Our sponsor this time is Kenny K! Woo Hoo!

I managed to work with one of my fav images from his shop!

Lady Victoria! 

She's such a stunner!

As you can see I've gone all red & black!

I just had to as I love that colour combo!

I've used my Spellbinder Grand Nesties to cut out the card

Then die cut cogs for embellishments!

I've used promarkers & flexmarkers to colour the image

& added a couple of charms & some gems as well as a sheer ribbon bow!

There are no design papers, just

good old CS

Here's the back of my card. I cut a small slice off the bottom curve

to stop the card falling over to one side!

Here's the side view. As you can see I used the red CS to

line the inside too!

Thanks for dropping by!
