Hugs & Kisses

Hi there

Its been a while since my last project but loved using this cute ragdoll nurse image from QKR for my DT project for Crafting from the Heart this week. I wanted to keep it quite simple and multi purpose so I've coloured it with promarkers and used serif to compile the background and sentiment

Rubix

Hi there

I felt like making some different for this week's challenge at crafting from the heart, so for my DT project I decided to alter a rubix cube.

The elephant image is from Eureka and I've coloured it with promarkers with the background being a "loud" colour in keeping with the rubix style. I then cut it into 9 squares and adhered to the rubix cube using glossy accents. Each square was then finished with another layer of glossy accents to give it a tougher surface.

The rest of the digis are all from the Eureka/QKR balloon range and the remaining sides of the cube read "its a jungle" on one side and "out there" on the other.

Its all relative

Hi there

This is my DT inspiration card for Krafty Girlz using a turtle image from QKR
I wanted a CAS look so the image and sentiment would be the focus so its been coloured with promarkers and matted on co-ordinating paper, finished with a button and some twine

Time to Celebrate

Hi there

This is my DT card for crafting from the heart using an image from QKR.
The giraffe has been coloured with promarkers and set on a "wood" frame with handmade paper which is set with large leaves. The sentiment stamp is from LOTV and is attached with a little clothes peg.

Beer Mat

Hi there

I was looking at my promakers the other day and realised that I never use the chisel end, ever.. so for this DT inspiration project for 4 Krafty Girls, using a Eureka balloon digi, I decided to make a beer mat and only use the chisel end..

Thought it might end up a big mess so printed two to have a back up but its amazing how much control you have with the broader tip. For the lion's mane it was also a lot easier than trying to use a bullet nib.

Go Wild

Hi there

Eureka are sponsoring the challenge at Crafting from the Heart this week and this is my DT card. I love going on safari and that's what inspired this card. It's actually very simple in concept as I printed the zebra balloon several times, lightly coloured them and attached to the card with silicone gel so that they were dimensional. The zebra background was a great find and the letters were printed and filled in with "grass" using promarkers in a few shades of green.

Fly High

Hi there

QKR is one of the sponsors at crafting from the heart this week and this fabulous parachuting pigeon is one of their images.

I thought it was so cute and wanted to try out creating my own background "sky". I made a template of clouds with a scrap of card and used broken china distress into to create the sky on the card base, I then applied the same technique to the image.

The image has been coloured with promarkers and finished with ribbon, a button and some little tags

Zentangle Heart

Hi there

It's another challenge at 4 Krafty Girls and this fortnight, Eureka is one of the sponsors. My DT card uses their "knot heart" image which I thought was crying out to be zentangled. I've kept the whole design very monochrome as I wanted the zentangle to be the feature.

It's so relaxing to add these doodle patterns on an image and if you haven't tried it yet, I'd recommend it!

Hello Duckie

Hi there

Its a new challenge again at Crafting from the heart and this is my DT inspiration card using a cute image from Eureka. As we seem to be having a little early summer, I wanted to go with something bright and cheerful which could be used for any occasion.

The image has been coloured with promarkers and the background paper is from American crafts.

Too Cool

Hi there

Its anything goes at 4KraftyGirls and one of the sponsors is Eureka. This is my DT inspiration card using one of their images. Its a great image and made me think of a cool teenager hence the sentiment. The background is a piece of wallpaper of all things but I liked the whole london theme and red/grey colours with this image.
