I decided to make a centre stepper & as I thought the image was quite vintage looking, I kept to mainly browns & golds.

The image has been matted & layered onto creams & browns. The back panel is coredinations cardstock from Crafters Companion & was run through my cuttlebug & sanded back.. The side panels are some papers from my stash. I then made & cut the sentiment on my cameo & finished off with faux stitching & gems

This morning it's time for another challenge from

& 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.

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.
