CES DT Card..............Wish Upon A Star with Teddy Bea

Good morning its me back again with my 2nd post. This one is my CES DT Card.

This week over at CES Challenges the fabulous Sue has drawn a fab sketch for this weeks challenge. Pop on over to take a peekskie you will love it us DT girlies sure did.

For my DT card as I'm working my way through my stamps I thought I would work my way through some of my un-used digi images too & I really love these guys.

Yayyyyy Teddy Bea I soooo love these bears I'm not really a bear person but these are just so adorable.

The sentiment is a wood blaock stamp off my shelf I just inked 1 word up on 1 tag & the 'for you' on the other tag....simples lol.

I added diamond stickles to her wings, yellow stickles to her wand & glossy accents to her boots which I just think look fab!!

Faux stitching around the circles using my all in one tool & a white gel pen.

This teddy is called 'Wish Upon A Star' & I've coloured her with my Prisma pencils. I used all of my colouring mediums within 10 days yayyyyy lol. I so enjoyed colouring this with my pencils I really should get more use out of them & practice more.......just need the time now to do it lol.

Have you noticed I've used NO flowers OMG I didnt even realise til I loaded it up on the DT blog lol. I'm having withdrawal now tho so if I end coming back later with another card you know why lol. If not I will be here in the morning with my Kenny K dt card.

All products used on this card except the image, gems & all the card for matting are available in

Crafty Emma's Store

Sweet Stampin DT Card..............Marie Antoinette

Well good morning all my lovely friends how are you all?

Well its Saturday & its double trouble from me today lol........yes I have 2 DT cards to show you but I will show you my other one later.

First up we have my Sweet Stampin DT Card & this week the theme is....

Choklit

I am trying my best to get through all my un-inked stamps...........yep there is a lot!!

This is a stamp that I got for crimbo, I went more for chok colour.

This is 'Marie Antoinette' by Kraftin Kimmie I got a load of them for crimbo & they have just been sitting in a tin. I think she was brought from here.

The flower I made myself & the corners I made with a Marianne die I forgot I had brought & never opened. I cut the corners out of thin brown metal which looks gorgeous IRL, altho the camera has picked it up pretty good.  

The ribbon is from my stash it supposed to say 'Chocolate Heaven' but I just cut off the 1 word. The charm is from my jewellery making stash again one of those things that I found that I forgot I had.

Here she is close up. It took me over 21/2 hours to colour her up. It always takes me about an hour to colour an image anyway cus of the layers & all the shading but I just love her dress & tried to get each & every pleat to stand out....if you know what I mean lol. I love this stamp I think she is fabulous & she comes with 2 sentiments 1 is something about cake.

The beautiful paper is off my fab blogging buddy Marie. She made Natalie a beautiful card which is still on her shelf, she loves it & she sent me a gift up 1 of which were these gorgeous papers, my eyes welled up when I opened these they really did. I dont live near anyone who is into crafting so everything I have to buy myself I am lucky to have a fab hubby who buys me lots. I dont know anyone to do stamps swaps & what ever other things crafters do lol..........you know what I mean dont you.

Well I'm going to go now as it is really 1 in the morn & Natalie finally stopped screaming about 15 mins ago, whiskey worked a charm........for me I mean lol so this is scheduled & now I'm off to bed.

Pop on over to see my fabby teamies YUMMY creations......I was drooling when I saw them mmmm mmmm. Hope you will come join in the fun.

I will come see you all very soon.....well when I waken lol.

Toodles for now will be back later with my 2nd DT card, there is just no escaping me is there

mmwah, thankyou for stopping by I love you all loads xoxoxox

Now I dont have any requirements at all for this candy all you do is place a comment & thats it. You can however enter your name twice if you do 1 thing.....

The fabulous Emma is trying to raise £1000 for the Yorkshire Air Ambulance she is soooo close.

Good morning my lovelies & what a beautiful morning it is up here along the coast. You gotta love sunny mornings they just perk you up for the rest of the day.....I think so anyhoo lol.

RIBBON

Yes RIBBON most of us love to use this.....we have to.........ITS THE LAW!!!!!

This week I have used another stamp it took me a while to get cus she had always flown the nest but she finally flew home to me & here she is.....

WARNING PHOTO HEAVY

This is the beautiful 'Orchid Of The Night' by Molly Harrison which of course is exclusive to Crafts & Me.

The sentiment which I found in my stash says 'Friends' on it but its got a sheen to it so was hard to photo.

All of the flowers are made by moi using Bearly Mine papers that I've used on the card slightly dabbing them with white ink & then inking edges with vintage photo & finally giving them a spritz of 'Gold' glimmer mist also from Crafts & Me.

Matting for the image I've used the new release nestie, isn't it gorgeous you may see this a lot to be honest lol. Everything has had their edges inked with Vintage Photo distress ink & all papers have been distressed as well with my skissors....

Here are 2 of my handmade flowers. The stamens in the middle are from Crafty Emma's Store.

She has been coloured with copics.......I keep using diff skin tones as we all have diff skin tones so the last few have been diff....anyway

Whimsy Special Blog Hop..........'Heal the world'

Good evening my lovelies, hope you are all fine & dandy.

Hello and welcome to a very special blog hop today!  You may have been on the first hop that Whimsy put on for this special cause.  Well, there were so many who volunteered to join in that we had to do a second one!  The illustrators of Whimsy Stamps have come together to draw a special set of digi images for the purpose of raising money for the relief effort in Japan.  All proceeds from the sale of these images will be donated to that cause.   Kenny K, Raindrop Echo Designs, Meljens Designs, and Crissy Armstrong all contributed art work. 

For the whole month of April, you can purchase the images as a set or individually (your choice)  by visiting this page on the Whimsy store site.  Please consider helping this special cause by purchasing one or all of the digital images we are offering.  

If you have landed here from Dawn's Blog, you are right on track.  If you have come here randomly and would like to start hopping from the beginning, please go to Ann's blog.   She has the blog rotation order posted if you need to refer to it. 

The amazing ladies of two design teams have come together to host this blog hop for you!  Ann's team from Sentimental Sundays and the Kenny K Krafty Girlz have joined forces to design some amazing jaw dropping creations for you.  You have seven days to hop through all the blogs and enjoy all the lovely creations from these talented people. 

The hop runs from now through til Sunday April 17 at noon.  There will be several opportunities to win blog candy!  Four random commenters will get a chance to receive one of the three individual images or Ann's sentiment set.  So be sure to leave comments all along the way for your chance at a free digi!  Also, if you post the "Help for Japan" button on your blog's sidebar, you can enter into the draw for the grand prize!  The grand prize will consist of the entire digital set made just for this cause as well as a gift certificate donated by Ann of Raindrop Echo Designs worth 10$ to use at the Whimsy Stamps store! To enter, you must help us advertise for this cause by posting the "Help for Japan" button on your blog's side bar (just grab it from my side bar or from the top of this post) and then get your name on the Inlinkz option on Ann's post so we can be sure to find the winner.  

Now on to my project: 

I have used Anime DJ by Kenny K in my project today. As soon as I saw this fab image I knew I wanted to do something with music & obviously relating to Japan......the first song that come to mind was Micheal Jacksons 'Heal The World' which I thought was perfect for this special blog hop. I have used an image off the internet for the sentiment & even managed to get the song sheet which I then distressed with inks.

Here is Anime Dj

The paper is from K&Co everything else is from my stash & the flower I made myself using pages from an old book. I never have time to read anyway lol. She is coloured with Copics but she has been coloured for a while so I cant remember the colours sorry peeps.

Next you'll want to visit the fabby Amy's Blog to continue hopping.  Thank you so much for stopping by, and for your support of this very worthy cause. 

Please help this very worthy cause what they have had to endure is just un-imaginable....please PLEASE help!!

                                           Thank you so much stopping by you all totally rock mmwah

Sure we have loads from the boys & I have proudly kept every single one but this is Natalie's first & it feels like we've won the lottery......as they say 'Life is not about how many breaths we take but how many moments in life simply take your breath away'.....
