Adding Sunshine to My day.

This fun card is made for the Chalk N Stock #3 Challenge, Bingo. My paper is from the Mystery Pack I had from Sarah Wright Designs. I chalked all around the edges to distress it a little, and also chalked the white card behind my digi's. I merged the Sun digi and sentiment in PaintNet. I coloured Image with promarkers, and Lyra pencils, and outlined my cardstock with promarker too. My stickers, ribbon and buttons are stash. My digi's are a special set was created for Jennifer Scull who is battling cancer. All proceeds from the set will go directly to Jen's family. I know she'd be pleased if you popped over and gave her some some, she's a lovely and  inspirational lady.

And here is the other couple of cards I had fun making with it. 

My Heart Pieces

The image I used for the above plaque is called Nature, is by my blog buddy Priyanka and can be found in her new digi store here. She has a new challenge blog starting 15th May. There is just three days left to enter her DT call (ends 30th April). Click here for details. 

 I made this for my daughter who (some of you may know) has been bedridden for three years now. She's improved a little, at least she can talk more, and laugh now. She enjoys listening to the birds singing outside, but as she can rarely catch sight of any I am gradually filling her room with them lol. I have made some with needle felting, and I print pictures out for her. I recently saw a picture of an Eastern Bluebird on Dorcas' blog and knew my daughter would love them.

 I used 'artistic licence' and made the birds into Eastern Bluebirds, despite knowing they were a little on the small side really. She decided she'd like them hanging from the screen around her bed, so I punched a hole in the top and added a ribbon.

I used Lyra Pencils to colour, my cardstock and gems are stash.

Crafting For All Seasons Challenge - Anything But A Card

I Spotted a Pop Up

A card I made for my Grandson for him to go back to school after the spring break. As a Jehovah's Witness, I don't send him birthday, xmas cards and the like (he's not a JW) so I do like to make him cards  whenever I can. This is of course a Mo's Digital Pencil Image...and it was so much fun to colour with my Lyra pencils. My G.son is a curly blond, and I just wish I had enough confidence with my colouring to give him a head of curls....still he usually has to have the curls shorn off before going back to school...how I miss them. 

It's another free standing pop-up, and below is how it looks folded for posting,

 this fitted into an C5 envelope. 

I have added a homemade fimo heart charm, decorated with sakura souffle pen,

 and a handmade with love heart charm. 

They are fastened with a brad I decorated myself.

My brads were coloured with acetate pens and then dotted about with sakura pens. My 'ribbon' came tied around a new set of towels. It reminded me of the tape my mother used to write out names on to sew into our clothes for school. Of course my grandson would have no idea of such things...but it appealed to me for a going back to school card.

Mo's DP2 Challenge - I see Spots 

Thinking Of You In Pinks

This Breast Cancer Awareness Freebie is (of course) from Saturated Canary. Isn't she beautiful. I've coloured her using my Lyra Pencils, and a dot of Sakura white glaze on her eyes.  My papers are Craft Creations, the Lace from Joanna Sheen, dew-drops (thought appropriate lol)  and seam binding are The Ribbon Girl, the rest is stash. My tickets are once again Bitavin's Bastel Blog , a blank ticket which I added sentiment and colour to in Paint.net.
