Sketch Saturday Challenge No. 38

This week's entry for Sketch Saturday Challenge, I've used one of my brand new Smirk stamps, which I think are so sweet, and I've coloured it in with watercolour pencils and a black Sakura glaze pen on her hair. It's not very clear in the photo but her dress is a scrap of the pink dotty backing paper. The backing papers are from one of my favourite collections at the moment, "Funky meets chabby chic" which I downloaded from Funkyfairiespapercrafts.com. The brad is from my stash and the sentiment is from Penny Black.

Penny Black Challenge - Romance

I received a set of Penny Black stamps today in the post just in the nick of time to enter this challenge. The stamps are gorgeous, but in the end I choose this sweet little hedgehog, the "love" sentiment is from the same set. The background papers are from Funkyhand's "It's Funky Too" CD and the ribbon is from my stash. I went for a clashing mixture of pinks & purples, quite bold for me, but I think I've pulled it off!

3rd card today - what a busy girl I've been

I've been wanting to use this stamp for ages & finally got around to it today. Had a lovely crafting afternoon, no clients & Georgia went to a friend's, so I didn't have to do the school run & I just put my head down, crafted away & finished three cards (that has to be my record in one day!)

I used:

• Ellie Stamp from Stamposaurus coloured with Sakura Glaze pens
• Backing papers & banner from FunkyFairiesPapercraft.com
• Dotty ribbon from my stash

Stamp Something for your Valentine Challenge

I made this card with an Art Nouveau heart stamp I've had in my collection for ages, the small hearts were cut using a Cuttlebug Die and part stamped with the same stamp, the background paper is from the FunkyHand Too CD and the mesh behind the heart is from my stash.

Sketch Saturday Challenge

This is my first Challenge entry, and I'm pleased with the results and it gave me an opportunity to use my brand new Magnolia Tilda stamp, which is gorgeous.




The stamped image has been coloured using Sakura Glaze & Stardust pens, the backing papers are from FunkyHand's Downloadable Paper Blossom set and the button brads are from my stash.
