Evening all

Colour Challenge

Our randomly selected winner is sponsored by 

Diane's Digi Downloads

and our Forever Friends Favourite prize is sponsored by

Milk Coffee 

who also provided images for the DT to work with, yippee. And the one that I chose is definitely one of my new favourites, it's so unique, adorable and versatile!

So here's my card, made using a Milk Coffee image.

I love this Milk Coffee image! So much fun to work with :D The birdcage is a Tim Holtz diecut that I was sent in a candy from the wonderful Brenda of Floral Fantasies, inked and Glossy Accented all over, the papers are from a We Are Memory Keepers pack, the sentiment is Lili of the Valley, the flourish is a Cheery Lynn diecut, the fabulous charm is from Ribbon Girl, the gems are from Wild Orchid Crafts (but got squished in my Grand Calibur lol) and the rest is from stash.

A closeup of the image, smooshed gems and all! Coloured with Promarkers and I put Stickles on there too.

My sparkly flourish :)

A closeup of this charm - it's so pretty!

Today's card

Evening everyone :)

First of all, I'd like to say a big thank you to the DT over at Penny Black and More who chose one of my cards to be in their Spotlight of the Month feature, I'm happy out :D Also, I'd like to say thanks to Brenda of Floral Fantasies, as I won a candy from her, and all of it is AMAZING! I'm now totally addicted to Glossy Accents!

So I'd like to share my card with you - I'm actually happy with how it turned out! Which doesn't happen very often for me at all :) It's an unusual colour scheme for me, not that I don't like it, I just don't have ANY papers that go with, or are red! I just can't seem to find them :P I like how summery these colours look though :)

So this is my card :D The papers are from a Bo Bunny pack called Alora I think. The image is from Milk Coffee, they have such cute digis! The ribbon and gems are from Wild Orchid crafts. The swirl is a Marianne Design one. The birdcage I won in the candy, along with the red ink that I used to colour it, and the Glossy Accents that are coating it.  

A closeup of this darling image, which is also accented with Glossy Accents :D It's coloured with Promarkers.

My bow and Glossy Accented Swirl (I'm addicted to this stuff now!)

A closeup of this birdcage, I actually love this diecut, it's beautiful.

So that's my card :)
