Hark the Herald......

Morning Folks, a new challenge has started this morning over at Craftitude, our theme being Anything Goes/Christmas Sparkle. For this I have used the image High Angel by Digi Darla. Here is what I created....

My Sample

Close Ups



For my project, I coloured the image with Promarkers, Almond, Blush, China Blue, Cool Grey 1, Buttercup and Satin. I glittered the wings using Gelly Roll pen Clear Star and for her sash I used Gelly Roll Gold. I used Creata mirror board and backing paper card for my base. The music sheet was a freebie off the internet. For the embellishments I used Creata flower forming and Metalic rub on transfers. To finish I used gems and ribbon from my stash.

Hope this has given you an idea of what to do. Look forward to seeing all your lovely creations.

Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving such nice comments

Something different ! ....

Morning everyone, hope you are all well, there have been a few nausea/stomach bugs going round and unfortunately I caught one of them. Been feeling rotten for a few days...hopefully it will pass soon! Anyway on a brighter note, we have a new Anything Goes challenge starting over at Crafty Girls. I wanted to do something different other than a card, so here is what I came up with.....A Christmas hanging decoration!

My Sample

Close Ups


For this I have used the Annalise digi by Glamoureyes which you can buy here. I coloured in using Promarkers, Almond, Blush, Buttercup, Satin, Lavender, Lilac and China Blue. I used Ranger Crystal stickle glitter glue over her wings and used Clear Gelly Roll pen as highlights. I die cut out the snowflake using Sizzix Bigz die with paper from my stash, I also added gems and ribbon from my stash to decorate. What do you think?!

Please feel free to pop over to see what the rest of Design Team have created for more inspiration, then you can have a go. Looking forward to see what you all create!
