DT call at Tiddly Inks!!!

Hi sweeties

I´m back with one more post for today,

I thought I was going to run late with this one

but I got some extra time to finish it, Hurry!

Click here to read more about the DT call

I´m a new fan of these super cute images from Tiddly Inks. I simply had to get a handful of them from the shop. I have used one of my favourite ones to make a card. She is called Happy Bee Day - Extras included. Aren´t those little bees adorable? I simply love them.....

I used some pattern papers from my stash. Tried to make it like a little scene with gras and blue sky. Clouds and sun are die cuts using a die from Lawn Fawn. The little hearts is another die cut from Memory Box.

I have coloured the image with ProMarkers. I also added some glitter using a wink of stella pen.

It´s not long time left on the DT call but I wish everyone good luck!

Happy Birthday dear...

Mother

Happy Birthday to you!!!

Here is a card I made for my mother´s 60th Birthday.

She loves cats so it was a certain motif. Her favourite colour is red so that also had to be part of the card.

I used paper from Maja Design. I used a red cardstock under the pattern paper and also for some die cuts like the music notes and the number. It looks quite dark but it´s red. Please click at the photo to see better.

I coloured with ProMarkers. Isn´t the kitty cute? I love it, the image comes from Di DigiDesigns.

My DT card for Scribbles Design Challenge

Last card for today,

there are a new challenge over at

SCRIBBLES DESIGN

It is time to celebrate the men in our lives. Fathers, husbands, brothers, uncles, nephews and friends. Many of us have a plethora of men to choose from.

For others there may just be a few. This month create a card

for one of the special men in your own life.

Top Scribbler receives $10 worth of digital images, winner's choice
Top 3 receives $3 worth of digital images

Donating: 7 digital images, winners choice

I used one of Scribbles Designs truck images,

this time the cement truck. I think these images are great for Birthday cards for boys any age... I am planing to add a number in the top right corner, but not sure who will get this one yet so it has to wait...

I also used a freebie image called nuts and bolts.

I have coloured with ProMarkers. Papers are from a 6x6 paper pack from Lawn Fawn and the button and stars are stickers from Jillibean Soup.

Please pop over to Scribbles Design and play along. There are some awsome boy creations made by my talented team mates as well.

I would like to enter this card into following challenges:

Anything Goes with a Twist - Color Palette

I made a birthday card using the very sassy

Delores D'ammage

I have coloured with my ProMarkers. I tried to copy the feathers blending look. Think it turned out pretty well even if my colours are a little bit brighter than the colour palett.

DT card for Sparkles Monthly Challenge...

I got a lot of post ready for you today,

since it´s the 15th there are a few new challenges to get your hands on

and I´m going to tell you about a few of them...

So let´s start with

SPARKLES MONTHLY CHALLENGE

We got three wonderful and generous sponsors with us

Prize: $10

and

Prize : 7 digital images

So what about the theme?

Our talented Helen N has picked

More than one fold

I made a Birthday card fitting any kind of Birthday monster...

Used two digital images from PollyCraft. The sentiment is a freebie from Pysseldags (I think it was). Images are coloured with ProMarkers. I also saw that the pattern paper and image didn´t match each other when I put them together so I had to go over each dot on the pattern with a promarker to make it match. (note to self, don´t do that agian)
