Sugar Bowl - December challenge

Hello All ... Its time for another Sugar Bowl challenge hooray :-) .... As always there are some fabby prizes up for grabs, one winner will receive 4 Sugar Nellie digi's and another winner will get 2. There are some fab new digi images in store, so well worth playing along.

I have reached for an old Favorite this time this gorgeous Diane Duda image ... You can find some of Diane Duda's digi images here  I coloured this one a while ago, so before I got into the habit of taking a note of the copic's I used. decided to create a shaped card this time, and embellished using dies from HOTP and x-cut. The papers are from my minds eye.

Hope to see you in the Sugar Bowl ... can't wait to be inspired by your creations

Blackcurrent Love

Hi All,

Finally got into my loft and got a little more crafting done. I coloured up this tiddly inks image a few weeks ago. I have totally changed the way I craft, I used to always choose a DP then colour to match. Now that colouring has become an obsession I just colour away as the notion takes me and then every so often have a wee session in the loft where I try and make something with my little pile of images ..... yes it does take longer as I have to hunt around for paper that matches, on the upside I am re-discovering paper that I have had in my stash for ages like I did here I found this DCWV paper pad "Black Current" .... considering the match wasn't planed I am really happy with how it turned out. The die's are new to my collection "spellbinders/heartfelt creation - romantic garden" ... It also has matching stamps, so I stamped and embossed the bleeding hearts and the message.

Copic's I used:

Skin: E000, E00, E21, E11, E04 - R20 (blush)
Hair (girl) - E49, E79, E77, E71, RV34
Hair (boy) - W9, W5, W3,W1
Dress - W9, RV99, RV69, RV34, RV06, RV02, RV000
Coat - W9, W5, W3, W1
Trousers/Scarf - BV29, BV25, BV23, B60

I would like to enter this into the following challenges:

Clear it Out - Anything Goes
Tip Top Tue - 3 or more papers ( 4 papers from DCWV Blackcurrent stack )
Brown Sugar - Anything Goes
Creative Fingers - Anything Goes
Sister Act - Anything Goes
Sweet Stampin - To Die for ( bleeding heart detail & setiment have been stamped )

Marc & Cleo

Hi All,

I know I must be waaaay behind the times, but I have only just discovered The Paper Shelter .... Treated myself to quite a few digi's. This image really appealed to me, maybe because Hubby and I had a Nile cruise a few years ago.

Amazingly this card took me 2 evenings to make ... I got the basic layout that I was happy with (pretty much the one you see now ) I kept trying to add fuss but it just wasn't working so in the end I stuck with C&S

I have Coloured  with copic's

Cleo:
skin - E000, E00, E21, E11, E04, R20 (Blush)
eyes- E00,E97,E59
eyeshadow- YG11, YG95
Lips- E04, R20, R22, R14
Hair - C10, C7, B91
Outfit - BG09, BG05, BG01, BG000

Marc:
skin - E000, E00, E21, E11, E04, E95

Cape - W9, R89, R46, R27, R35
Armour - E37, E15, YR18, YR14, YR12, Y08

Chaise Long:

The card blank is From Kanban (bought years ago, just after that Egypt trip, under the illusion I would scrapbook my photos ) The blue paper is also Kanban, and the red card Cor'dinations.

I created the little embellies using paper clay and Martha Stewart Molds. I coloured with distress ink Antique linen and I used distress marker - Pummis Stone to add the detail.
