Sketch Saturday Jeanettes DT week... and the winner of my Bag....

Good Morning all....

Wow it looks set to be a glorious day here... hope its lovely where you are....

First things first..

I hope you all enjoyed our birthday celebrations over at Sketch Saturday last week...

Thank you for the lovely comments on my little fabric bag...

in answer to the commonly asked question:

'How did I colour the fabric?'

I used promarkers, and just VERY lightly sort of dabbed the colour on... and avoided going to close to the lines.... thats basically it!

I have to say it wasn't easy, and it did take me 2 attempts...

anyway.... the person who will be recieving it to have a closer inspection is:

Congrats!! the bag is yours, and so are the secret crafty goodies inside...

Please contact me with your address.

okay, so on to this weeks Sketch Saturday!

Its Jo's week off this week... and the lovely and oh so talented Jeanette has provided us an awesome sketch to work with...

heres my take on it...

This is my all time favourite stamp... she was originally from Sugar Nellie, but you can now get her HERE at Belles and Whistles... she comes with a post box, but I was in a rush to make this card, so I cut off any extra colouring (blush)

She's coloured with promarkers...

the papers are a mix of MME and pink paisley...

Flower is from my stash

our sponsor this week is:

MFT stamps

and theres an awesome $25 gift voucher up for grabs...

Thanks for looking today!

A Card at last!!

Good Evening!

You didnt expect me to be posting on a Tuesday... I bet!! LOL!

I've made 2 cards today, but I'm late in the day taking photos, and the other one I just couldn't get a photo of..

This is my entry following the fab sketch at Passion For Promarkers...

And as the Secret Crafter challenge is 'Anything Goes' I'd also like to enter it there...

Looking at this now, I'm not sure about the colours I've used!... it may just be the quality of the Photo...Anyhoo...its made now...

I've used a gorgeous Belles and Whistles stamp (Tania Baking) I've coloured her with Promarkers and Pencils...

The papers are a bit of a mix! DCWV green stack, and BG origins... In real life they look good together...I promise!

Pearls, buttons, ribbon and stuff, are all from stash, and I've finished with a handwritten sentiment, and a bit of doodling....

Thanks for looking!!!

Sketch Saturday #94

Morning all... its Saturday AGAIN!! where did that week go?

I'm afraid I've been a bit 'all or nothing' again lately...

to once a week!

Really am going to try hard to enter some challenges this week...

Anyway Saturday means another Sketch over at Sketch Saturday

So get yourself over there and join in!!

Heres my DT card for this week...

I am in LOVE with this Belles and Whistles stamp!! I need more sisters so that I can use it more..lol!! (mum?.....no I don't think so...lol!)

I've coloured the image with promarkers and pencils...

Cut out with a nestie, and then used the same nestie as a stencil, and chalked the edges a bit..(not sure it shows)

The Papers are DCWV Green stack

Ribbon was a RAK from a fabulous friend!!

Buttons from stash...

Sentiment handwritten...

Thanks for looking!!!
