Just Inklined

Today I have a card to show you using just one of many fab digi images from Just Inklined.

This image is called 'Iris' and you can buy and download it HERE.

I used ProMarkers to colour the image and the main dies are by Spellbinders including the border.  The ribbon is from Mei Flowers and the pins are some I made a long time ago.

The usual close up!

ILPM's #140 Christmas is Coming!

Yep, it is coming whether we like it or not..... lol.  So for this weeks challenge over on I ♥ ProMarkers we would like to see Christmas cards.  

We have a fab new sponsor for this one, Marianne Designs and they have a great prize on offer too, 2 stamps and some foliage dies, pop over to the challenge blog to see a picture of the prize.

Here's my DT card.

 This is a digi image from Mo's which I bought last year and never used, no idea why as it's just so sweet.  The papers are from Just Inklined, the flowers were cut with a Marianne die, and the holly leaves a Cheery Lynn die, and the sentiment is from Cuddly Buddly and the glitter is Chameleon glitter from Debbi Moore Designs.

A closer look at the image.

Silver Wedding Anniversary Card

I was asked to make a Silver Wedding Anniversary card this week, so thought it was the ideal occasion for a white card, I love them!

I used silver card to matt and layer onto and also silver coloured pearls.  This was the first time I've done this kind of card, so make the mistake of embossing the card front first.... lol, so when I came to cut out the centre, it flattened the embossing slightly.  But it took me ages to do the embossing, so didn't want to do it again.  I used Spellbinders dies for the aperture, roses, sentiment and the fancy bits round the sentiment, and also the lattice.  I used memory box dies for the other flowers.  The sentiment is computer generated.

Hope the recipients like it!

DDSC #122 - Use Pearls

Here's my DT card.

I just love this image, but then I love all the flower images from DDS.  This image is called Violets in Wagon which you can buy and download HERE.  I used ProMarkers to colour the image and parts of it are 3d. The flowers are hand made by me and I used a MS punch for the border, I think the papers are from DCWV, but will check that out.  For some reason blogger insists on turning round the bottom picture, it should be sideways!

Lili's Little Fairies

I came across a paper pack today, that I've had for ages and never used, so thought I'd make a card with it. This card fits the present challenge over on Lili's Little Fairies, which is 'Monochrome'.  The stamp I used is called PomPoms.

I just love these colours, they're so pretty.  The paper is from Pampered Pets by Andrea Jayne.  The image is coloured with ProMarkers and FlexMarkers, I also coloured the ribbon and flowers with ProMarkers.  I made the flowers and the bead pins myself and used dies from Cheery Lynn for the border and corner.  The pearls are form Mei Flower and the glitter from Debbi Moore Designs.

This image is called Pansies and you can buy and download it HERE.  I used a Cheery Lynn die for the border, cut twice, a Marianne die for the foliage and cut the flowers with the Retro Flower punch and added a rose to the centres.  The sentiment is a stamp from Wild Rose Studios and the pearls are from Mei Flowers. I have no idea where the BP came from, I found it in my off cut box, but I do know it's a digi download.
