Spring Connie


Good evening all my lovelies have you all enjoyed your weekend? Have you had your chillaxing time lol?
Tonight I thought I would make a card to put 1 of my coloured images on, the ones that I colour & put them in a box then they never see the light of day again.....do you have any of those? That was until I saw this paper & thought it was perfect for The Sugar Bowl sketch with the theme of 'Spring'........so thats what I did.........

Are you scratching your head?? Yeah me too.....yes my coloured images are STILL in their box cus after I had done this card in lemons & grey I thought it would be fab with just a grey drawing........
....Enter 'Connie' I coloured her skin only & sat her right there & I think she sits well there. She is of course a digi from Funkykits.

The inside is done to compliment the front of course.

Paper is from Etsy, lace, pearls & sunflower is from my stash.
Other flowers are from Crafty Emma's.

The bottom edge of the card I did myself on my Grand Calibur.
Well thats it from me quick post tonight cus I've done no blog hopping today its been one of those busy days & when I did go on the net I went shopping to Crafty Emma's......yes she has the new Websters Pages in & I just love Websters.....& its not my fault that other stuff fell in the basket I did really well & kept it under £40......check me out lol.
Well I'm off to do some blog hopping so I will see you soonies.
Thank you SOOOOO much for stopping by with all my heart I appreciate it.
Take care toodles..... xoxoxoxoxox
Challenge I'm Entering.......

  8. Evening Vicky and guess what - Snap, I went and got the websters to and think our tally was about the same. Wish my fingers wouldn't do the talking all the time ROFL. Gorgeous card, love the lemon/grey and the image is gorgeous just with the skin coloured. Love the sound of the calibur but think its too technical for me. Hope you've had a good weekend!
