SMC Challenge - Valentines

This week at SMC the challenge is Valentines.  I have used Cupid Miki available from here.  He is coloured with promarkers. 

Red and Black Tilda

This card is a little out of my comfort zone, but i really like how it has turned out.  Tilda is coloured with promarkers and glossed with glossy accents on the bow and arrow.  And there is glitter on her headband.  The card blank is from Craftwork cards. I'm not too sure where the paper is from as it was a bunch i brought from ebay.  The flowers are prima with card candy in the centre.  The black doily is cut from a nellie.  And the ribbon is from Crafty ribbons.

Penny Black Baby Card

I have tried to keep this card clean and simple.  The blue checked paper is from Papermania.  The embossed square is embossed by a cuttlebug border folder.  The flowers are from prima and the centres are brads.  The image is coloured with promarkers and glossed with glossy accents.

I would like to enter this into the following challenges:

• Penny Black at Allsorts - Say it with flowers

Sarah Kay i think? NO IT IS BUGABOO!!! I MADE A MISTAKE!

I love this image!  It just really appealed to me.  The card is Top Notch by CraftWorks Cards, the paper is some from a Pink Petticoat paper pad that was free with a magazine.

I think this image is Sarah Kay, but i could be wrong (If anyone knows please let me know) I coloured her with promarkers.  No it is Bugaboo! Sorry for the mistake!

The butterflies are punched from a Martha Stewart punch and glitter with stickles.

The flowers, pins, lace and stamens are from Wild Orchid Crafts and Mulberry Crafts.

The ribbon is from Crafty Ribbons.

Weddings!

I have never made a Wedding card before but when i saw this image i just had to use it!  I don't think you cn see it too well but the white card is embossed on the cuttlebug!  The image is from here

The Crazy Challenge - Lots of Love

This week's theme at The Crazy Challenges is Lots of Love and Our sponsor is

Hobbisimo

The theme being lots of love this week and Valentines day just around the corner, i thought i would make a valentines card (funny that!).  I have used 2 of the Magnolia Tilda stamps, which i absoloutely adore, they are coloured in promarkers and glossy accents have been added to the shoes.  The flower is a fabric flower which i just stuck on to add a bit of texture, this is from papermainia. 

The flowers in the corner are fom Mulberry Crafts and Wild Orchid Crafts.  I was a bit annoyed when it came to putting the flowers on as i realised the only red flowers i had were the little tight buds, so i had to improvise!  But i think it works okay with the pink.  The pins, stamen and pearled stamen were all from Wild Orchid Crafts.

The backing paper of the heart is Forever Friends, not sure where i got the red one from.

The gems were all in my stash and took me ages to stick around the heard as they are so tiny!

And just a quick thank you to Jenny for the advice and to Jaqui for the Watermark!
