No colouring... almost!


Hello everyone! I'm back today to share a very CAS card, inspired by our January CAS Challenge theme at Make it Crafty - No Images! I used one of the new chipboard quotes and tried to avoid colouring - I did cheat a little since I coloured a heart ;) but no character! Here is my card:

Hug prof copyr wtmk

I used the Make it Crafty Inside Your Hug Chipboard and coloured it with a black Copic. For the background, I used several Distress Inks applied with a blending tool and added stamped stitches around my coloured square. I stamped a heart from the Harmony At Home stamp set by Tiddly Inks, coloured it with Copics and cut it out. I also added a heart Chipboard from the Outlined Words With Love Chipboard Set which I painted with Distress Paint and covered in Stickles.

There is still a couple of days left to enter our No Images Challenge, go HERE to join us! Thank you very much for your visit, have a great day! Hugs,

All about Love!


Hello everyone! I love having hearts on cards, so with Valentine's Day just around the corner, now is the perfect time to share some love ;)! Here is a card I made for Copic Marker Europe :)


I used one of the adorable Cupids from CC Designs, stamped and die cut with a heart frame die from the CC Designs Cutter Make A Card #12 Smoochies Die. I stamped a second Cupid on another piece of card to colour him with my Copics, then fussy cut it and pasted it on my framed Cupid. I added a sentiment from the Cupids stamp set and used little hearts from the frame, coloured them in Copics and adhered them to the card.

I wanted to paint a simple little scene for her :) For the background, I used my watercolour pans only which were a bit dusty and called for me, and I coloured the image itself using Copics.

Make it Crafty CAS Challenge


Hello everyone! I'm back to share my inspiration card for our current CAS Challenge at Make it Crafty - No Images! I can hear you scream and trust me, I was scared too - what, make a card without an image??? Well, yes, it is scary but it's a fun challenge! And you can use chipboard ;)! Here is my CAS card:

Shoot prof copyr wtmk

I used watercolour paper for the background and my Tombow and Zig pens in shades of blue and dark purple - which unfortunately my camera did not pick very well! I embossed my beautiful MiC quote Shoot For The Moon Chipboard with white embossing powder and used a moon and little stars from the Shooting Stars Elements Chipboard Set. I coloured the stars with a Pitt pen and the moon with Distress Paint and covered them in Stardust Stickles (Wink of Stella for the moon).

 We hope you'll give our challenge a try - don't be scared, you can do it ;)! Thank you very much for your visit, have a lovely day! Hugs,

Paperbabe Stamps Challenge #24


Hello everyone! Happy Friday! Today is the start of the first challenge of the year at Paperbabe Stamps and our theme is an easy one - ANYTHING GOES! We would love to see your Paperbabe Stamps and Templates, but you are of course welcome to use anything you like! I went a bit Mixed Media for this one and made another portrait - I absolutely love all the face stamps and hair templates Paperbabe Stamps have!


Stamps: Paperbabe Stamps Profile Face Mini Stamp Set
Templates: Paperbabe Stamps Profile Face Mini Curly Fringe
Colouring: Watercolour, Zig pens and Copic Markers on Canson Montval

For the face, I used my Paperbabe Profile Face Mini Stamp Set and stamped the different elements using either Versafine Onyx Black or Memento Summer Sky. I used the Profile Face Mini Curly Fringe Template and traced around it to create the hair. To colour, I used watercolour and Zig pens and for the hair I used Copics. I thought about adding other details on the background but finally decided to leave my portrait like that, I like it like that I think :)

Take It Make It - Take A Stamp Anything Goes
As You Like It - Anything Goes
