Happileigh Scrappin' Challenge #27 Bright Colours - Oranges, Yellows, Reds

I'm thrilled to announce that I'm a brand new member of the Happileigh Scrappin' Challenge Design Team.

The Challenge this week is to use Bright Colours - Oranges, Yellows, Reds, and for my very first DT project I've made an ATC using the delightfully cute Sea Turtle which you'll find by popping over to the Happileigh Scrappin' Shop. 

I've coloured him using Promarkers - slightly shaded my background with a aqua blendable pencil (blended with a dry stubby thing). I've added sand coloured Flowersoft...well as sand, some Basic Grey fibres as water plants and scattered a few undersea themed beads about - not forgetting the little mini faceted gems I've added to some of the air bubbles. 

You don't need to use a Happileigh Image to join us, but if you do - and why indeed not when there are freebies available - you will be given 2 entries into the draw. Also, not to be forgotten, for every 3 images you buy at the store, you will get one free. 

The rest of the Team  have some wonderful projects to share with you, pop over to the challenge and take a look.

Amber's Crafts & Stuff #12 Teen Celebration.

At Amber's Crafts and Stuff this week we are making projects with a Teen in mind. My teen project is my very first easel draw box, which I've made for the lovely daughter of a good friend of mine. She has the most beautiful red gold hair...which I've tried to imitate on the image. 

I'll be stuffing the draw with crafting goodies for her to make a few cards - it was orginally going to be chocs but there were just toooo many to fit....so she's getting a extra gift lol. 

The pin is made using some beautiful purple glass beads that Joan kindly sent to me a few days ago. The 'draw nob's' are also made with some of the beads she gave me.  My image is coloured with promarkers and the flowers and butterflies are highlighted with Sakura tira glitter pens, and glazed with the glaze pens. I used a couple of Marianne Design corners to 'frame' my image and made some roses with matching cardstock.
