Baby Shower

 I finished this one a day or two ago but have only just managed to blog it.  I am gradually using up my accumulated stash of printed digital papers from Trimgym.  

I would like to enter:

QKR Stampede - Anything Goes
http://qkrstampede.blogspot.com/2021/09/qkr-stampede-challenge-428.html

I have used a digital paper from Trimgym.  The image is from Eureka Stamps and the sentiment is from Nana Vic Digitals.  Colouring is with copic markers.  I also added a white doily.

All That Stickles - Anything Goes
http://allthatstickles.blogspot.co.nz/search/label/Linky%20Party

I have used a poinsettia paper for the background.  The image is from Nana Vic as part of the Progressive Challenge at Lady Anne's challenge.  I have coloured the image with copic markers and added some Stickles - crystal.  The sentiment is from Netty's Cards - I edged around it with copic marker R35 and then raised it above the card using mount tape.  I added three pearls from Sullivans to each of the top corners.

Tree Shaped Sentiment

The sentiment was in a triangular shape so I worked from that and turned it completely into a tree!

Sentimental Sundays - One Layer
http://sentimentalsundays.blogspot.co.nz/2013/08/challenge-167-one-layer.html

I have used a white card blank for this card.  The sentiment from Nana Vic has been printed onto white cardstock and then stippled with a shaving brush and Distress Ink - Pine Needles.  I was aiming for a tree look with the stippling.  The star is a Spellbinders die which I have cut from some glitter cardstock from DCWV.  I then "stitched" around the image and the outer of the card blank.

Woodland Baby

Glitter n Sparkle - Stitching (real or not)
http://glitternsparklechallengeblog.blogspot.co.nz/2013/04/challenge-28.html

I have made a feature of the image for the CDAC Progressive Challenge.  The image was supplied by Nana Vic.  The background papers are both from a paper pad by MME.  The sentiment is also from Nana Vic.  I crafted the flower myself from orange scrap paper using a Marianne's Designs die.  I then scattered some rhinestones across the top of the card.

April Showers

Decided to try a patchwork layout this time!

QKR Stampede - April Showers
http://qkrstampede.blogspot.co.nz/2013/04/challenge-33-april-showers.html


The card uses background papers from a set called I'm yours by Harper Finch.  I have based the design around the octagon die-cut.  The image that I have used is a challenge one from CDAC and comes from Nana Vic Digitals.  The sentiment that I have used comes from Daizeefli and was just perfect for the temperature of April showers in NZ!  The "stitching" on the patchwork is Peelcraft border stickers.  The image is coloured in primary and secondary colours using copic markers and the final secondary colour appears in the rhinestones on the umbrella!
