Mad For Markers - Aussie Christmas
Can it be .... can it really Christmas already??? Wow how this year has flown ....
This month we challenge you to create AN AUSSIE CHRISTMAS (it might rain ... but no snow).
For my card I have used this cute little boy and his dog from the Buddies set from The Greeting Farm. You can find The Greeting Farm Stamps here.
I adore this stamp! I love this sweet little boy and his best friend. I thought it made a lovely Christmas image .... as most little children like to spoil their pets at Christmas. (I know my 3 year old does)
I have coloured him in the following markers:-
Skin - E000, E00
Hair - E29, E35, E37
Clothes - YG25, R27, R59 and C1
Dog - E35, E37

Using Multi Liners .. Mad For Markers
Hello there :) Its a new challenge over at Mad For Markers Challenge Blog ... and we are challenging you to use your Multi Liners. I tell you what .. I use mine a lot! I'm not a great stamper and I do tend to 'miss' bits. The Multi Liner is great for fixing up these little errors. Its also great for going around the 'white' edges on your card when you fussy cut. Not to mention drawing on 'stitches' and so much more.
I have used some Multi Liners to 'highlight' certain areas on her clothes and also to fill in her eyes and make them darker.
As you can see I have used lots of colours. Here is the list :-
YG00, YG03, YG11, YG23
Y02
G07
E000, E00, E11, E13, E15, E37
YR20, YR23
Y38
R22, R24, R29, R81, R83, R85
I have used some lovely paper from the Kaisercraft Christmas Carnival Collection 6x6 Paper Pad and of course some spica pens.

Anything goes at Creative Craft Challenges
Sunshine .... not here ... butterflies ... haven't seen any .... bright summery colours ... nope .... sigh ...
so I made my own!
Our latest challenge over at Creative Craft Challenges is ... ANYTHING GOES. We are being sponsored by Bugaboo and Crafty Ribbons.
For my little project I have used these gorgeous butterflies from Bugaboo called Chubby Butterfly No. 1 and Chubby Butterfly No. 2
I used a lovely embossing folder on the front of the card to give some texture and some strips of patterned paper down the side to break up the white. Then I used a die cut to put a hole in the middle! and then used the same die to do the 'insert' for inside the card. The sentiment is from Stampin Up.
Now talk about cute! While I was trying to take photos my 3 year old daughter thought she would help by holding the card shut for me .... awwwwww .... how cute are those little hands!!
This is the inside of the card ....
Thanks for stopping by. Don't forget to check out the rest of the projects by the DT and then get your project in for the chance to win a prize!

Spring .... gorgeous colours!
So its Spring! Apparently! Not here in Victoria ... here it is COLD and WINDY! But it is lovely to see the blossoms on the trees and the gorgeous leaves peeping out from their bare branches.
I love that fresh little bit of green coming through. What a marvellous thing to see.
In celebration of Spring Growth we have been using Copic Markers in G's and YG's this month over at Mad For Markers.
I have coloured this gorgeous Digi image from Some Odd Girl in the colours I am currently seeing in my garden. I decided she was the perfect image for spring. You can find gorgeous images from Some Odd Girl in Clear Stamps and Stamp Sets .. here.
Now is the perfect time to head on over to the store ... because ... there is a sale on Copics!
Looking forward to seeing your Spring creation using G's and YG's .... got to be in it to win it!

Tickled Pink Stamps is Sponsoring Do You Stack Up
This week the Pink Ladies decided to have a little fun and create something - we don't get the chance as often as we like these days! The gals have done some truly gorgeous work and if you want to check out their projects in more detail head on over to their blogs.
We also wanted to let you know that the store is having some major technical issues at the moment and is currently closed - we hope to get it sorted out for you ASAP.
For my card I have used Lil Futuristic Stefan from the Tickled Pink Store.
I have tried to create a Masculine card. Please excuse the dark pictures ... we have not had sunshine here in days. And unfortunately the whole household has been sick with that dreaded cold and cough thing thats getting around so I only created this at the last minute .... ooopppsss.
I coloured the image using copics and used some glitter glue on his space suit.
Some torn paper ...... and done ..... I'm actually quite happy with the result ... especially since I've coughed constantly whilst making it :(
Thanks for stopping by.
Until next time :)

For my project I have used this delightful image from Digi Doodle Shop called Tu Tu Shy. I fell in love with this image as soon as I saw it and new I wanted to colour it for this gorgeous girl who is turning 4 very soon.
This image was an absolute delight to colour! and I'm thrilled with how she turned out. I used the following Copic Markers W1, W3, W5, R83, R85, R20 and B000.
Thank you so much for stopping by .....
