It's also time for another challenge from


& for this challenge we are sponsored by the lovely
Crafty Sentiments Designs

Our theme this week is, as always, anything goes, with the optional twist of Fall
& here is my make


I got to use Blitz

I printed off a digi background of an outdoor scene, I then cut out lots & lots of leaf shapes using my cameo, I cut them from cream card & went to work on them with my distress inks. I used the cameo again to cut a bare tree & designed a layered sentiment.
I then put it all together, layering the leaves. Some were stuck flat & some were raised using foam pads, I added the digi to make it look like she was playing in the leaves

I used a different skin combo of Apricot, coral, oatmeal & pastel pink for my skin colour & I quite like it. Her clothes are all in different combos of browns & her hair using caramel, mustard, tulip yellow & buttercup.
So, there ya have it, thanks so much for stopping by.

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

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.
