Kadoodle Snail Wagon

Hi everyone, a card today for Stamp Something where the theme this week is think spring. I love the fresh spring colours, pinks, blues and greens and I've used these colours in the card, buttons and water colouring of the image. The Snail Wagon image is my Kadoodle design available at the Craft Barn and I've water coloured it with Ranger distress inks, added some stickles and glossy crackle accents to the snail shell. The background is blue core'dinations card which has been partially embossed at angles with the Argyle cuttlebug embossing folder and then sanded and distressed on the edges. To decorate I added the three colours of ribbon, buttons and Woodware sentiment.

I'm doing a colouring technique demo tomorrow at the Craft Barn from 10am-4pm so if anyone from blogland is in the vicinity and has any time to pop in it would be lovely see you. Take care and see you tomorrow with my BasicGrey Challenge crad. TFL. Chris

Daffodils

Hi everyone, a card today for A spoonfull of sugar where the challenge this week is 'Love is in the air' and for Cute Card Thursday with a challenge of 'Valentine's'. I've used one my new digi-stamps 'Daffodils' which is available at Sketching Stamper Digi-stamps and is one of eight images available from today. The image is marker coloured and mounted on coredinations card mounted on dimension tape. The background layer is yellow coredinations mounted on dimension tape which has been embossed with the CB and hearts folder and then sanded. All the edges are distressed and I've added stickles to the flowers, the ribbon, mini pearls and a yellow heart gem. TFL.

Materaials: Sketching Stamper Digi-stamp 'Daffodils, Promarkers ( in pastel yellow, mustard, gold, lemon, primrose, moss green, pastel yellow, pine, agean), yellow and dark aqual coredinations card, dark aqua canson card. Cuttlebug, hearts embossing folder. Yellow satin ribbon, yellow stickles, yellow heart gem, mini half pearls, edge distresser.

I've been given some fantastic awards this week, thank you so much ladies, they're very much appreciated but I've got myself so muddled with them and I hope you can excuse my not linking up properly, I really am rubbish at this, sorry.
















I was also tagged this week with the sixth folder, sixth photo tag, by Deifen, thank you Dei! The sixth folder contained number templates, not very interesting and so I've gone to the seventh which are garden photographs and this is one taken last year of my day lilies, I love these flowers.
