Flowers, flowers & more flowers

I have been playing the last couple of days & as you can see, have been making my own flowers. Now its not like I don't already have enough flowers, but thats not the point, I wanted to see how well I could make them & I am pleased with the results.
I have used a variety of punches & also Paper & Roses set, (which I cut out on my trusted Robo), from Fred She Said to make them and glittered them where appropiate. I added a few jewels & coloured them with either H2Os or ink pads. I will certainly be making more of these.

OSAAT challenge 27 Shapes

Another week has gone by & here we are again with another OSAAT challenge. This week we are being sponsored by Craft Brulee who are very kindly giving away a $10 prize to be spent at their store. This time is all about shapes & we were asked to make something other than a card if we could, using shapes so heres my entry.
The image is by Sylvie stamps over at Stitchy Bear shop & I Did It Creations. Its called Baby Clapping, which I have coloured with Prismas again. I have used rectangles on the top of the box for my shapes.
This is mounted onto a box I made, which I thought could keep babys first tooth, hospital bracelet, that kind of thing.

Another Just Inklined

This is another image by Just Inklined which was given away as a freebie, coloured with Prisma pencils.
Nesties Labels 2 used to cut out an aperture in the front of the card. I then mounted the image onto the back of the card & stuck acetate onto the front to cover the aperture. Kept it quite plain as its a male card.

My crafting friend Jak Heath is the designer over at Just Inklined which is  a new range of digital stamps recently come onto the market. Jak is also seen on Create & Craft presenting La Pashe, & her blog is fantastic, so go on over and take a look at both.

Fred She Said flowers

I bought & downloaded some Fred She Said digital flowers today and have been playing around. I bought some Christmas pointsettias & these paper roses images which were blank & I have cut & coloured them  up into flowers. I am so pleased with them, took me ages, but well worth the effort me thinks. It makes a change not to be doing too much colouring in...lol
BP from stash as is the white flower.
