Man & Remote


Managed to find some time this afternoon to make another mans card as I need several when I am back from my holidays. This is an image from Phindys Place
I came across her images several weeks ago & they are gorgeous, so go take a look for yourself.
Coloured with Prisma pencils & Sansador (Can you tell I love these pencils..lol). Papers are Dovecraft Abstract Prints & card from stash. I have also used a Glitter Girls corner punch & Martha Stewart "Rings" punch.

Entered into the following challenges.
Cupcake Craft - Food & Drink (he is holding a can & there are crisps by his side)
Practical Stampers - Have to use something you have had for a year. (I used my Craft Robo for the circles which I have had for 2 years)
Fab N Funky - Its all in the technique. (I have paper pricked the edges of the circle & the image corners.

Bookmark

I am away on holiday on Sunday for 3 weeks so have not had much time for crafting this week. My bookmark had become a bit cloth eared, so thought I had better make another one & by sheer fluke, found A Spoonful Of Sugar had a challenge to make a bookmark, so heres my very quick effort as time is short. The image is from Digital Ink Co which has now closed, coloured with Prisma pencils & Sansador. Mounted onto card from stash & a flower, also from stash. Sentiment made on Word. Very quick & easy & I now have a new bookmark to take away with me.

Make Up

Not sure if I like this one, but anyway its done now, so the first backing paper is from the Robert Adams Botanicals CD & the paler pink one is from the Papermania Rose Garden pad. I have also used some pale lemon hand made paper that I have had for ages. The make up images are from the now defunct Digital-Ink Co site. They are coloured with Prisma pencils & Sansador with a little glitter added here & there. Ribbons, brads & buttons from stash.
