30 day colouring challenge

So far this month I have managed to colour or paint something every day  following the Daily Marker 30 day colouring challenge hosted by Kathy Racoosin over at The Daily Marker.

My day one image was this Tiddly Inks image called Wryn Spring Bling.  This was the original image.

This is what I did with her :)

I took some purple card and a paper from the stash to make this simple card.

The sentiment is from Studio Calico and is embossed with gold Colour Craft embossing powder.

She will now be added to my collection ready for the appropriate time to give her to someone.

Thinking of you

I have another card using the fabulous Wryn Spring Bling from Tiddly Inks to share with you today.

I enjoyed colouring this one at New Year, following the tutorial from Alyce Keegan of Kit and Clowder.

I used the My Favourite Things Blueprints #13 again to cut the layers and embellishments.

The sentiment is from the stamps free with Creative Stamping Issue 22 which I bought this week.

It has some lovely images which I will be using over the next few weeks.

So there she is.  Hope you like this little card.

Colouring practice

I bought a class in colouring skin and hair from Kit and Clowder (http://kitandclowder.ning.com/groups) and, after my initial enthusiasm, let it sit unused.  

While I've had some down time the last few days I decided to revisit the lessons.  One of them was a tutorial using Spring Bling Wryn from Tiddly Inks.  Although Alyce goes a bit quick for me to follow along I don't think she turned out too badly.  What do you think?

Anyway I was pleased enough to use her for a card.

Although the colours are quite Christmassy, I still thought they would be ok to use for the remaining winter birthdays I have coming up.

The flourish is a new My Favourite Things die I received as a present from my daughter and her family.  I also got a city scape which I will be using very soon.

I also used a few MFT blueprints dies for the other small embellishments.  They really make a difference to how a card looks.

I'm pleased with how this card came together and I hope you like it too.

Singing Wryn

Good morning crafty friends and welcome to another 'Hump day'. Why is it that most Wednesday's feel like they go on forever? unless your doing something fun of course! But unfortunately I'm not doing anything fun, I'm at work today and have a training course this morning :o(

Today's card is made using the lovely little Tiddly Inks stamps that came free with a magazine recently. I'm not sure what she's called but I call her Singing Wryn lol. 

I coloured her with Copics and cut her out with a Spellbinders Opulent Ovals die. 

I used the larger sized die to give her a mat and then used papers from the latest Simon Says Stamp kit and a Kaisercraft Christmas pad. 

I used olive green Silky Crush ribbon across the centre and added a little angel charm. 

I used a simple sentiment again and then added the musical notes using a Spellbinders Die D-lites die called Love Notes. 

Hope you like her, have a good day. See you soon.
