Glitter 'n' Sparkle Challenge#227

Hello and welcome to a new challenge over at the Glitter 'n' Sparkle Challenge blog. 
For challenge #227 the theme is...

RIBBONS OR LACE

Our amazing sponsor this week is Crafts and Me.

For my card this week the image I chose is called - Heart Pixie by Sara Burrier - available at Crafts and Me. This is such a gorgeous image - all that lovely hair piled up on her head was a challenge to colour! I have coloured her with copic markers after picking out the patterned paper I wanted to use so I could match the colours.. The patterned paper is from Pink Paislee - 6x6 pad - Switchboard. I chose to use ribbon and lace on my project and some lovely flowers and buttons. Love how it turned out!

Copics used:
- Skin - E000, E00, E21, E11
- Hair - E43, E44, E47, E49
- Red - R00, R02, R05, R17
- Green - BG70, BG72, BG18, BG78
- Wings - RV000, RV10, RV11, RV13, V91, V93, V95, V99

I hope you have a great week and get a change to join us in this challenge. Check out all the great inspiration from the Design Team and don't forget to leave some love.

Thanks for looking.

Glitter 'n' Sparkle Challenge#217 - Traditional Christmas Colours

Hello to you all. Another week begins and 20 days until Christmas - the time is absolutely flying - has this year just flown by for anyone else? I haven't even thought about Christmas presents or Christmas Day. I will be working right up to Christmas and all through the Christmas period so it gives you a false sense of the time of year...

Our Challenge Theme this week is:

Traditional Christmas Colours

So we need to see all of your Crafty makes with Traditional Christmas Colours of Red, Green and Gold.... Get some more of those Christmas cards finished and sent off to friends and family. We have a wonderful prize for you from our sole sponsor Crafts and Me who are offering an £8 Digi Voucher.

My card this week uses a gorgeous Hannah Lynn image - Berry Branches - from Crafts and Me. Although you would not pick this image for a traditional Christmas image, I think when you make the berries red and use Christmas colours it starts to look very Christmassy, and it make it a versatile image as well. She is coloured with copic markers. I have used glossy accents on the berries however this is hard to photograph. When you then team the image up with some Christmas patterned paper, add some red ribbon and some bells - you then have a great Christmas Card for someone special!

Copic colours used:-

Skin - E000, E00, E21, E11, E04, R20

Hair - C2, C5, C7, C9

Sky - B37, white posca pen for stars

Branches and Owl - E31, E33, E37, E49

Greens - G23, G94, G99

Reds - R22, R24, R27, R39

I hope you have a great week and get a change to join us in this challenge. Check out all the great inspiration from the Design Team and don't forget to leave some love.

Thanks for looking.
