What's Your Favourite Colour?

Mine is BROWN! :) I guess I've said this a lot of times in my previous posts, lol! I really like brown for IMO, it's very Neutral and I like its earth tone. You can mix and match it to other colours without worrying if they'll look good together.


We're having a challenge over Crafty Muse this week and that is to make a card using your favourite colour/s. Here's my card for that challenge:




She looks so sweet! This is Angelique sitting on a yummy cupcake! After quite awhile, I then once again used my Copics to colour my image. My Copics have been sitting and collecting dust since I started using Prismacolor pencils but! I know it's meant for other projects like this one. I want the image to achieve a vibrant-look so I opted to use Copics as Prismacolor (with odourless solvent) tends to give a subtle, watercolour look.
I combined my favourite colour with SU! Barely Banana (which I embossed with the Cuttlebug Divine Swirl) and a yummy Basic Grey paper from their Two Scoops paper pad. I stamped the sentiment directly onto the dp and finished the card off by putting small Kaiser pearls in Chocolate before and after the sentiment and putting some Stickles Cotton Candy on the icing. I also put a Chocolate ribbon around the card for a bit of accent.
Head on to the Crafty Muse blog and join us for our "favourite color" challenge for the week. I bet you'll be interested to share with us your cards with your favourite colors! You can use any stamps of your choice but you can also use Sammi's images. Also, if you want a GDT spot, just write the word GD with your comment along with link on the card you created.
Happy stamping! :)

Milly Rose - Crafty Muse Sketch Challenge

Hi everyone! Happy Saturday! I just want to share with you a card patterned after the ongoing sketch challenge over Crafty Muse. This sketch was provided by my fellow Craft Muse DT Sarah.

And here's my challenge card for that:

I coloured Milly Rose using Copic markers and Bic Mark-It. I've just noticed that I'm so into Prismacolor colouring these past few days that's why I decided to use my Copics for a change. :) And besides, my papers and cs are all vibrant and bright so Copics can justify that quality. I've embossed the 2 background cs with my Cuttlebug Divine Swirl embossing folder and die cut the sentiment using my Olivia alphabet set. I used Dimensional Magic to give the letters a bit of effect. I then finished my card by putting some Copic Spica glitter pen here and there.

Hope you like my card and if you have time, please visit the Crafty Muse blog and join our sketch challenge.

God bless you!

Christmas Look and Boys Will Be Boys Challenge

Hello everyone!!! Can you believe it? Just 6 more days to go before Christmas!! Wohooo!! Time really flies so fast. That's another reason why I changed my blog background as I want to have a Christmas feel on it (aside fr my Christmas tree countdown). But I'll be using my previous background soon as holiday season is over. You mustn't forget that BROWN is my fav! :) I'm already done shopping for some Chrissy gifts and also with the Christmas cards (I think, lol!) I'm just finishing few bits of my gifts to my "women" churchmates and soon as I'm done with it, I'll surely be posting it here.


Anyway, Crafty Muse is running a new blog challenge and it's all about "boys". So the theme would be "Boys Will Be Boys". Here's my card which I patterned from SC207:






This is Carson, the Mac lover. ;) Isn't he cute? Sammi has been working with him along with the other guys the past few weeks and now they're here!! Hop on to Crafty Muse and join us as we welcome these guys! There are lots of digi-freebies, too, so make use of them and have fun!!

Happy Cardmaking! :) God bless!

Millie Rose Christmas (Crafty Muse)

Hi everyone! How are you doing? Hope everything's in good shape. Just want to share with you card I made 2 days ago. This is one of the Crafty Muse's girls and her name is Millie Rose! Right now, Crafty Muse is having it's fornightly challenge and this time you will use the free images being found there on a Christmas theme card. So timely for the holiday season.

I made a simple card using Millie Rose with her wand and here's what I came up with:


I used Not Quite Navy and Pretty in Pink for this card. Not your usual Christmas colours, huh? Wel, sometimes it's good to try other colour combos and step out of the traditional ones. I sponged the areas around my image using my Versacube ink pad while it's still on the Nesties die. I then matted it on Pretty in Pink cs, ran my Whisper White through my Cuttlebug with my Snowflakes embossing folder then adhered my matted image on it. That simple! I used my concave corner punch and instead of putting brads or pearls on the corners, I used my pink stickles instead.

So, head on to Crafty Muse blog now and join our fornightly challenges! Check out other DT's blogs also to see their fab creations and don't forget to visit the Crafty Muse blog every now and then as Sammi (the genius behind these images) will be releasing "the boys" soon!

Until next post. Have a blessed day everyone!

Yay!! Crafty Muse is now officially OPEN! It is the blog wherein I'm one of the DT members. And I would like to take this opportunity to invite you to check it out and join our fortnightly challenges. You can now have the chance to use Sammi's images which you can get from the blog itself. The blog challenge starts today. :)

So, as a starter, here are the cards that I made using 2 of Sammi's "Angelique" image:



Isn't she cute?? The 2nd card is patterned from SC146 over SCS. I've finished these two cards 2 days ago but of course, I had to wait for Sammi's go signal before posting them anywhere. As I've said on my previous post, Sammi is still looking for 2 more DT members so if you feel like joining us, grab the first challenge now!
Let me know what you think of this by leaving some comments on my blog.
Thanks ladies and have a blessed day!
