Welcome to my blog!

From x stitch I moved into card making - now I am playing around with mixed media! I am taking part in different workshops and with help from crafty pals, learning about different mediums and techniques. Hope you feel inspired to create after a visit to my blog - Happy Crafting!

Challenge 70 – it’s a sketch!


This week’s challenge at Digi Doodle Shop Challenge is a sketch. This means you can use any image you like BUT if you use one of Digi Doodle’s your entry will count twice – double your chances!!

On this card, I have a mix of embossing, distressing, digi, rubber stamps, nesties, brads and punches..wow it wasn’t intentional!!

Flower punch/brads/ribbon/gems from stash.
Coloured with promarkers.
Distressed with TH distress inks.
Sentiment from Pink Petticoat.
Sentiment punch from SU!
Image from the Shop – Doodle Flower Set 2.

Hmm in real life all the brads are yellow and the same colour!!! These photo’s don’t do it justice! hmmph!

Such a pretty card from a gr8 sketch Debs. I don't know anyone who's entirely happy with 100% of their photographs!

Moleskin journals "seem" to be designed specifically for use as art journals with paper suitable for use with acrylic paints - btw

Happy Thursday

Super card from a gr8 sketch. I don't know of anyone who's 100% happy with 100% of their photographs either.

btw - moleskin journals appear to be designed with art journaling in mind and consist of paper suitable for use with acrylics

Happy Thursday
