Friday Sketchers #99

Here is a card I made using this weeks sketch over on Friday Sketchers. The main image is from the Mikey collection over on Charmed Cards & Crafts. I have coloured him with Copics (available HERE from Tracy @ Dies to Die For) using the following colours...

Skin - E000/E00/E11/R20

Hair - E44/E47/E49

Shades - C3/C5/C7

Clothing - R46/R59/B93/B95/B97

Soccer Ball - C9

The papers are all Prima Marketing {You}th collection. I have used my star shaped Nestabilities and a Stampin' Up star punch to create the stars, and the sentiment was made by me on the PC.

Be sure to pop on over to the Friday Sketchers blog to see what the DT have offered us as inspiration...totally fab!

Well, I have been off work a couple of days with a stinky head cold...I have no voice, a super sore/swollen throat and am having trouble with breathing. As I am breathing through my mouth....I cannot talk and breathe and breathing also makes my throat hurt....what a sorry excuse for a human being I am....LOL (I would if I could)....at least I can still sit in my craft room, and watch re-runs of The Gilmore Girls and Ugly Betty.

Cute Card Thursday - Sketchtastic!

This week over on the Cute Card Thursday Challenge Blog we have a sketch for you....and it's one from me....and it's only the 2nd one I have ever done.


For my card I have used one of the Charmed Crafts & Cards downloads, the collection is Holly & Maddie. I have printed them and coloured them with Copics using the following colours...
Skin - E000/E00/E11/R20
Eyes - B12
Hair - E50/E51/E53
Clothing - R20/R21/C1/C3/C5
The papers are all October Afternoon "Cherry Hill" layered with Bazzill Bling and Bazzill cardstock. I have used my Martha Stewart & Stampin' Up punches and embellished with Stampin' Up "basic gray" taffeta, bow and feather from Craft Fairy, bling from my stash and a sentiment by Craftwork Cards.

So please come over to the Cute Card Thursday blog and join in with my Sketch.

Daring Cardmakers Prize

I thought I would share a little piccie of the amazing prize I won over on Daring Cardmakers back at the end of November. Loads of lovely products....thanks so much to Karen over at http://www.charmedcardsandcrafts.co.uk/.
It is full of things I will use which was just what I needed on Tuesday when I was off work feeling lousy....a real pick me up. So a huge thanks to Karen for sponsoring the challenge over on Daring Cardmakers, and to the DT over there for their inspiration.
