Yearning for ...

Good evening

Boy don't these weekends just fly over!! 

This little cutie from Penny Black is called Yearning and I've coloured him with Copic pens. 

The background was created by stamping and heat embossing with Wow powder.  (Sorry the photo doesn't really show this up very well.)

Hi there

Welcome to another Winter Wonderland challenge.  This week the theme is:

Photo Inspiration

and we have this gorgeous photo to inspire you

This week we are sponsored by Crafters Companion who are offering a £10 voucher to the winner. 

The rest of the girls in the DT have produced some gorgeous projects and you can see them by popping over to the Winter Wonderland challenge blog and below is what I made:

I was inspired by the colour red and the candles.  The image is 'Dear Santa' by Di's Digi Stamps and I've coloured him with Copic pens.  I added white fun flock to the fur trims and stickles in the centre of the flower.

It's Friday which means it's time for a new challenge over at Winter Wonderland and this week the theme is:

Red and Green Must Not Be Seen

(We are looking for Christmas projects in any colours you like,

except for Red and Green)

This week we have two fabulous sponsors (so two chances to win!)

My DT card this week features a digi image from Pink Gem Designs. 

 

 

The image is called 'Nativity Philip' and you can find him here.  I've used Copic pens to colour the image. 

 



 



The stars and letters were cut from white card using my Cricut machine and George and Basic Shapes cartridge.  I then passed them through a Xyron label maker and covered them with glitter.
