Good morning all you lovely jubbly people how are you all? Yayyyyyyy its the weekend dont you just lurve weekends.........
Well its a new challenge over at CES Challenges & this week is the lubbly Julie's turn to choose the theme which is.............drum rollllllllllllllllllllllll
BLUE & CREAM
Ooooh these are 1 of my fave colours on cards & I know a lot of you love this colour. I've been seeing some images around bloggy-land but was really good as I have too many as it is so didnt buy any...........
This week however I caved in & brought some, I really do need professional help!!!!!
This is a card I made for a lovely lady who has a few things going on at the moment & I just want to tell I'm thinking of her............
This image is from D'Arcy's Diaries, which is by the same owner as Teddy Bo. These are just fabulous & soooo easy to colour.....I really enjoyed colouring this one up!!

I've used Whiff Of Joy paper, the sentiment is also out of the paper pad & I used the 'Bracket Tab' die to cut it out...........yep another die finally used I am working on getting my unused dies used lol.

Image is coloured with my beloved Copics & added Stardust Stickles to her wings.
Colours used were........
E21 E00 E000 E0000 R20
E29 E25 E23
B97 B95 B93 B00
E53 E5O & Warm greys for shading around the bottom of image

Flowers, 6x6 card blank, bakers twine & papers were all from Crafty Emma's STore. Ric rac, ribbon, lace, buttons, pearl & cream card for matting were all from my stash.

Well I think thats it please pop on over to see my uber talented DT sisters as they do stunning creations. I'm off for a bloggy womble before my grandaughter comes, I lurve saturdays I get her for the whole night woooooo hooooo. Loadsa snuggles for us & Auntie Natalie loves her snuggles too from her.

Gorgeous!!! So many wonderful layers and colors! I have never seen that image before, I will have to check those out!(just what I need, right?) hehe

I always forget that I can simply use white, or cream as one of my color elements, that's what I get for thinking too hard!

Have a great weekend!
