Trying my hand at Illustration!

Hello all!
Today I decided to do an illustration on my card for the Moxie fab "Foxy Foxes Challenge". This is way way out of my comfort zone...never tried this before!
I was inspired by this illustration by Lauren Minco, that I came across on Instagram.

I wanted to make this a One Layer Card, so I first drew the image in pencil and then using my Versamark pen  I heat embossed the image in Black. 

I then coloured the image with Camel Watercolours. I then added the sentiments from Hero Arts All Occassion messages and Everyday Sayings stamp sets.

The border is from the Hot of the Press Delicate Patterns stamp set.

I am also submitting this card for the Catchy Challenges watercolour challenge.

I like my illustration...what do you think?

Wish Big in Vegas!

Morning All!

Here is a quick card for the Moxie Fab ready-made embellishments challenge...

For this card I used a 3D sticker from 'Recollections' and added the stamped sentiment from Studio G.

I added some self adhesive gemstones for pop!

I love the way it turned out!

Am also linking it to the Paper Players CAS Masculine Birthday Card Challenge and the Moxie Fab genenral craft supplies (gemstones) challenge, and the Moxie Fab Stickers and Tape challenge.

Thanks for stopping by!

Have a great day!

Bottle cap heart.

Here's another card for  the Moxie Fab Metal, Wood or cork challenge and the Retro sketches Challenge

To the cute pink bottle cap I added a stamped sentiment from Studio G stamps. The heart stamps are from Studio G and Hero Arts as is the sentiment.

Bakers twine is from the twinery.

To create the border , I masked the card and added colour directly from the inkpad to the paper.

Love the effect, don't you?

Thanks for stopping by!

Enjoy your evening!

Give me more!

Here is another card I made for the Moxie Fab World Stickers and Tape challenge, using the polaroid die from Lawn Fawn and a photograph that I have taken.

This fab speech bubble sticker is from EK success. I stuck it on some acetate and cut around it to give it some body and to be able to use 3D foam tape to pop it up.

I think the sentiment goes perfectly with this photo of a scrumptious chocolate truffle cake, don't you?!

the background is embossed with the happy birthday folder from cuttlebug.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Have a great day!

Colour my life

Hey, everyone!

I have been down and out with a bad cold and cough...compliments of the season!

I haven't made a card in days, and I couldn't stand it anymore!

So here goes...

I made this card for the Paper Smooches Sparks Designer Draft Challenge, but missed the submission by a few minutes!!

I am submitting it also for the Moxie Fab World colour media challenge.

The Polaroid die is from Lawn Fawn and all the stamps are from the I Heart Art stampset from Paper Smooches.

Simple and fun, isn't it?

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Enjoy!
