My digital pencil too challenge entry.

Good morning everyone,

This weeks challenge over at DP2 is Vintage: Distress and Lace.
I struggled at first as we don't realy do much distressing or vintage, but then i came up with this.
Yes, it uses the same image i used for the story/poem challenge but does'nt it show how versitile the images are???
The paper came free in a magazine, the image was coloured with promarkers and then distressed around the edges. The sentiment too came in a magazine. I used some ivory/cream lace and made a border before attatching with musical note brads.



Please remember to take a look at my mums entry too. http://craftylynsblog.blogspot.com

Good afternoon,
My project today is a lili of the valley card. Its made using my new stamps. I realy like the new Oh So Girly range so i have three of those and one of the boys collection.

This card uses my minds eye papers, a Martha stewart punch, Some green ribbon, some turqouise coloured card, a sentiment, main image and some sequin flowers, including the large pink one.

The image is coloured with promarkers. The colours are:
Almond
Blush
Buttercup
Pale blue
Meadow green
Sandstone
Rose pink
Red

The sketch is quite simple, but it looks very effective and busy even though there isnt much on. Im realy happy with the result, please feel free to try it out and let me know.

Can i also say a MASSIVE thank you to everyone who has seen and commented on my hansel and greatal and house mouse challenge card. Your comments mean a lot.

Please leave a comment and tell me what you think.
Natalie.

My Digital Pencil too challenge. Based on storys or books.

Good Morning,

I spent all of last night creating my challenge card. My inspiration is from the fairytale, Hansel and Gretal.
It took me a while to think of a book, because although i read a lot, i had to find a digi that went.
I used the brother and sister digi and created a background using aqua markers.
The main image is coloured with promarkers. I chose the colours, pastel green, rose pink, pear, cocoa, blush and almond.  These colours matched the paper used for my second layer, which are from a my minds eye collection. The brown backing paper actually has a wood effect, although it doesnt realy show up that well.

                                        The sentiment reads: 'Hoping today is perfectly lovely'
                                         Coloured with promarkers. From Cuddly Buddly.

The pastel green and brown flower are from my colection of pretty petals, and the small pink ribbon flowers are papermania. I added a pearl to the large flower.
