FRIDAY SKETCHERS CHALLENGE/CARDS FOR FRIENDS

FRIDAY SKETCHERS WEEKLY CHALLENGE

This is my entry into this weeks Friday Sketchers challenge, i have used one of the fabulous High Hopes stamps, this is going to be a birthday card for Daniel, his favourite colour is green so I hope this fits the bill. Again in not sure what the papers are they were sent to me by a wonderful friend. The ribbon and sentiment is from my own stash.







OTHER CARDS

This is a card wallet using the adorable whiff of joy stamp. I have coloured in using the SU Brush markers and glittered the wings with stickles. Again the paper im unsure of but I love this design so if anyone can enlighten me I would be very grateful. Untie the ribbon bow and lift the flap to reveal a folder full of images to colour. The flower is a punch then layered with a gold bell cap and diamante centre. The small gold flowers are also bell cups with a diamante centre.


The next two cards have been sitting on my desk half finished for well over a week, I finally decided to finish them today. They are both for friends who are at the moment going through rather difficult times.


This one is using my new Magnolia pink tilda, which i adore, and as you can see isn't so pink!!!! she's lilac, but pretend you didn't notice that. The flowers are punches, and then glittered using stickles again. The flourish is a quickutz die, one of my favourite ones.


This second card has a Pollycraft image, which i love. I love those cute freckles, my little Jasmine has freckles, she hates them but i keep telling her its a sign of beauty. The paper is by MME (my minds eye). I love these papers they are such great quality. I have used adhesive pearls around the inner circle and a stretchy lace round the main circle. Flowers are prima with pearl centres. Ribbon from Stash and coloured with SU brush markers.



So thats me done for today. Enjoy your weekend.
