Through The Purple Haze Challenges- #57 Whoopsidaisy

Good morning everyone, I hope you had a great weekend, it was a busy morning for us here, as my little man started senior infants in school. I can't believe how fast the holidays went, we had a wonderful Summer, but now I may be able to get back into my routine, that's the plan anyway lol.
This morning it's time for another challenge from 
Through The Purple  Haze Challenges
& this week we have been kindly sponsored by 
Our theme this week is Anything Goes with optional twist of CAS
& here is my make
I find CAS cards very hard to make, I don't think I ever get them right, but hey I try lol.

I coloured my image using my promarkers in greens & purples. I inked a mat for the digi & the sentiment to match. The gingham card is from my stash & I tied a bow around it. I cut a butterfly with my cameo, assembled the card & added some gems.

She is a little cutie & I coloured her hair blond for a change, I usually go with black or brown.

Thanks so much for stopping by.
I would like to enter the following challenges:
1: Crafting From The Heart: Anything Goes
2: 613 Avenue Create: Anything Goes
3: Fairytale Stampers: Everything Goes
4: Robyn's Fetish: Use A Digi
5: That Craft Place: Summery Colours

Through The Purple Haze #56

Good morning & welcome to a new week & a new challenge from
Through The Purple  Haze Challenges
This week we are sponsored by 
& our theme is 
Anything Goes
Even though it's team As week I decided to join in on the fun & here is my make using Koko Bramblelashes
I wasn't sure what to do with this image first, it's so cute though & then I had the idea to turn it into a photo lol

I cut my base on my cameo & the camera is a file from the silhouette store

The image was coloured in with my promarkers & I cut the sentiment with the cameo too & ran some glitter pen over it. 

I used promarkers to colour in the camera as I had cut it from white card. 
I then assembled the whole thing & curled the image a bit to give it more dimension
So there you have my make, thanks for stopping by.

Through the Purple Haze Challenges

Boooo, yup it's me :) I've been in hiding for a while lol. I took some time out but now I'm back & what better way to come back than with a new challenge from 

Through The Purple  Haze Challenges

I've moved teams & am now with the fabby girls from Team B & this week we have been sponsored by

& also by a new sponsor


Our theme this week is
Sweet Summer
& I hope where ever you are the weather is better than here in Ireland, we've had alot of lovely sun the last few weeks but that's left us & we've been having major rain fall :( come back sun, I miss you lol
Anyway, enough of me waffling & on with my make. 
I got to use 
Smurfette Honey from Sassy Studio Designs & you can find her in the store
I made a 5"x7" card blank from A4 cardstock & printed off a digi paper before matting it onto blue & a layer of silver mirri,I cut a plain border from the blue too. 

  I matted my coloured image onto the same cards & mounted it, at an angle, onto the base. I added some rolled roses & foliage, cut with my cameo & some gems 

My bow was made from some rolls of paper wrapping ribbon I got on offer in Lidl & I made the bow using an afro comb :)

I have tried to use different colours when colouring skin & I recently bought a ebook from the lovely 
Donna-Marie, she is just fab with promarkers & all proceeds of the book are going to charity, pop by the fb page to find out how to grab a copy. I so wasn't sure when I was colouring her, I thought the skin looked too dark, but once I had the hair done I was quite happy :) I used shades of blue for the outfit of course, being Smurfette lol 
So, there you have it, my first DT effort for Team B, do pop by & see what the rest of the girlies have come up with xxxx
