Wanna Dance with Somebody...

That song kept ringing in my ears while I saw the image for Sasayaki FB Challenge last fortnight

The Bendi card is made using Tonic Window dies. Image colored with prismacolor pencils and copics. The embossing folder is Tattered Lace. I wrote in the sentiment instead of printing. Sometimes you need to have your won handwriting on stuff even if it's not all that good. As we get older and with all the technology nowadays I look at the pen or pencil in my hands and almost forget how to use it to write. That's bad.

Happy Father's Day Pop up Slider Card

Here's the card. Image colored with copics and prisma colored pencil.

Antique Lace - DS4J

Recently I got some tattered lace dies and this collection - the ornamental antique lace I should say is one of my favorites along with the tuck in dies to match.
And When I saw the digistamp4joy challenge this month both on the Fb Challenge page and their challenge Blogspot I thought this would be the perfect die to use.



Image : Dress up Dummy (which can be got from this link here after reading and following the rules)
Colored with copics and the background is with distress ink and prismacolor pencils
Dies used : Tattered lace ornamental antique rectangles , ornamental tuck in dies and flower medley
Sentiment : Printed in computer.

Happy Spring from Flower Ant

This card is for the Mid March FB Challenge at Sassayaki Glitter.
Quick coloring with copics and cut out by using scissors, trimmer and spellbinder die.


A few more die cuts for embellishments. The central one at the bottom is snipped from tattered lace die and the corner dies are from cottage cutz . A few rhinestones to glitter up and the card is done.

Spring Card

Here's another card and this time for Scrapper's delight. I was able to walk up the stairs  to my craft room to create and sat and did 3 cards at a stretch and this is the 3rd one scheduled one a day :)
The image is a cute egg in a basket so I decided to make an Spring/Easter Card.
The die cut is frame die from Amy Designs. The embossing folder is cherry folder from either Darice or Sue Wilson. Not sure.
Image is colored using copics.

You Color my World

Made this simple card for Art by Barb FB Challenge.
I created the background using photoshop. And colored the image using copics.
Cut the grass using Martha Stewart Scissors which has multiple blades rather like herb scissors.
I hand drew and cut some copic markers to add  more embellishments .
But that's it.
