From this week, The Crazy Challenge is going fortnightly!

This week our sponsor is the fabulous Digi Doodle Shop

 

Who are offering the winner a $10 gift certificate

Our theme is Childhood memories, something that reminds you of your childhood.

I choose this little dude, he reminds me so much of both of my boys, as i type now my youngest is naked!!

The image is from Digi Doodle shop and is coloured with promarkers

SKIN: Coral, Sunkissed Pink and Blush (fm)

HAT and BOOTS: Umber, Cocoa and Tan

RED is Burgundy, Poppy and Lipstick Red

The papers were scraps i had in my box, the brown spotty i am sure is from Crafts Too, but i'm not sure about the other.

The string and candi were in my stash too.

A quick and simple card!  I will add a sentiment when i use it, maybe father's day or a birthday!

Thanks for looking

2 DT Cards, some news and a Freebie!

Afternoon everyone, it is a beautiful sunny day here in the west midlands, you wouldn't know it was October!!

I have one card for 2 DT's today.  As most of you will know i am a team member on Incy Wincy Designs and The Crazy Challenge, well October is the month for Breast Cancer Awareness and both teams are having the theme of THINK PINK!  and they are both sponsored by my wonderful team mate at Incy Wincy Nikki who owns Limited Runs Digital Stamps. Well, at The Crazy Challenge our sponsor for this week let us down at the last minute and Nikki was kind enough to step in for me so a HUGE THANK YOU TO NIKKI!!

Breast Cancer is something that is very close to my heart, as one of my family members was diagnoised with it in June, so i thought about my card long and hard when i made it.

I wanted to keep this card simple but effective.  The image is coloured with promarkers and flexmarkers.  The mirri pink card was in my stash and the glitter card is from a pack of Create and Craft card from Wilkinson.  I did mean to add an embossed panel but i forgot!!  The white ribbon was in my stash as was the pink.  To make the breast cancer ribbon i just looped it and put a brad through.  The white pearls in the corner are Anitas 3D dimensional paint.  The flowers are from Crafty Emmas Store and Wild Orchid Crafts.  The card blank is from a pack of 3 from every crafts a pound.  The 'hope' ribbon is a freebie that Nikki is giving away.

Please be sure to pop over and say thank you to her!!

And now for my exciting news!  I have been asked to join the Glitter Geeks DT!!

I am truly honoured and can't wait to get started with them!

The Crazy Challenge - 3 Colours

This week at The Crazy Challenge we would like you to use just 3 colours!  Any 3 you like (not including skin)

We are sponsored by Sassy Studios which made this quite easy!

Still going with my christmas cards!  I used this sexy missus from Sassy, i coloured her with promarkers.  The backing paper is from Craftwork Cards as is the happy Christmas sentiment.  I'm not very happy with this as it was silver at first it didn't fit in with the theme so i went over all the silver with a quickie glue pen and added ultra fine black glitter, i just think it is a bit messy!  The star border is from a pack of on the edge borders and is embossed.  I used pink stickles for her scarf and round the edge of the nesties.  On her hat and shoes i have added some Dawn Bibby Shine time.

I hope you like it and thanks for stopping by!
