Starlight Fairy

Hi, A couple of weeks ago, for some reason, I decided that I should make a yellow card - certainly not a colour I usually use. So, using this gorgeous Whoopsi Daisy digi stamp, this is what I came up with for the CopicOz Challenge - a little Magic.

I've added stickles to her wings, and used a Spica gold glitter pen to highlight her hair and the edge of the star. The following Copics were used to colour the image.

Skin: E50, E51

Hair: E33, E35, E37

Dress: Y06, Y08

Wings and Star: Y0000, Y00

I used Y00 to colour the white ribbon used in this flower (instructions on how to make these gorgeous ribbon flowers can be found here).

Of course, I just had to use my glow-in-the-dark glitter again... it's so much fun.

Mandy from Scrappy-Go-Lucky is now putting together "Mail-out Copic Kits" for those wanting to get started with Copics, but not sure where to start. The first kit is available here and includes everything you need to get started.


I've also entered this card in the Whoopsi Daisy Challenge - Glitz & Glitter.
Wish me luck.
 
Till next time,

Happy Birthday Tracey !!

Hi, Tracey is celebrating her special day today, so I would like to wish her the Happiest of Birthdays! Tracey deserves everything wonderful that life has to offer, and I hope she has a fantastic day.

This is the card I made for her. I chose this digi stamp from Whoopsi Daisy as I think she looks like the birthday girl. She reminds me of Cinderella going to the ball.

I've used the Cuttlebug Roses folder for the background, and an SU punch for the border.

One of the reasons I love the Copics, is that you can colour anything to match. Apart from the blue paper, everything on this card started as white, and was coloured to match the main image.

The happy birthday (cut at 1.2") is from Create A Critter, and the scalloped oval is from Easter 2010. It was actually a circle doiley, and I resized it into an oval using the Gypsy. The white is cut at 1.6" x 3.2", and the blue at 1.75" x 3.5" after using Hide Contour Feature for the holes.

Happy Birthday Tracey!

I'm submitting this card into the following challenges:

Till next time,

Friendship Fairy

Hi, Last week a friend of mine was feeling a little overwhelmed by everything going on in her life. I decided to make her this card to let her how much I appreciate her, and that the strength of a friendship can overcome many things.

This lovely fairy design is from Whoopsi Daisy, and I have coloured her with my Copics. I found the gorgeous flower stems in a discount store a few months ago and have been looking for the perfect project to put them with.

I've had so much fun recently entering challenges that I've decided to enter her into the following:
     Whoopsi Daisy - paper piecing
     Cuttlebug Spot - Pink (love / hope / strength / faith)
     Stamp Scrap & Doodle - open challenge
     Cuttlebug Challenge - breast cancer awareness
     Magical Monday - back to nature (I've chosen Spring flowers)

And remember - it's always important to let those close to you know how you feel about them.

Till next time,
Luv, Tereesa.

Bride with Buttons & Bows

Hi, The Cuttlebug Challenge for this week is to design a card using an image, a bow and at least 2 buttons. Whoopsi Daisy is sponsoring this challenge with their digital images, and as I love colouring, I thought I'd check them out. I couldn't resist this one - isn't she just gorgeous.

I've used the copics to colour her, and chose a pale pink for her dress rather than the traditional white. I couldn't find the right ribbon in my stash, so I layered a thin satin ribbon over a wider organza.

The "Roses" Cuttlebug folder is used for the background, and the edge is punched with the SU Scallop Trim punches. The flowers are inked around the edges, glitter added (of course), and layered. The buttons are then set in the centre.

I've also entered this card in the Whoopsie Daisy September challenge......create a card with all things flowery.

Hope you like it.

Till next time,

Luv, Tereesa.
