Hi.....i'm alittle late posting today...that's because i made the card i'm sharing with you today a couple of hours ago...i wasn't going to post it untill tomorrow...but my son's just asked us if we will have our grandson tomorrow and i'm not sure what time and if i will be able to get on the computer....so here it is....
I've used a stamp i won last week on the PENNY BLACK AND MORE CHALLENGE...that will be one of the challenges i will be entering it into...i will list the challenges at the bottom...


Before stamping the image Penny Black "Butterfly Suite" i created my background using Pan Pastels (Burnt Sienna Tint and Hansa Yellow Tint),i blended the two colours with a sponge.....the two colours are not showing too good in the photo :(....i used the Pan Pastels so that i could rub out the areas i wanted to colour with a eraser...like using bleach on inks.....and then i used Promarkers and Prisma Pencils....i stamped the image again so that i could 3d the flower head and the two butterflies.
The aperture was created using a Spellbinders circle die....and the "Thinking Of You" sentiment is from a Marianne Designs Collectables  Stamp and Die set...

I'm entering the following challenges :-
PENNY BLACK AND MORE..."Dies and Punches"...only used two hope that's ok.
CUTE CARD THURSDAY...."Oranges and Lemons"....hence the colour scheme.
ROBYN'S FETISH..."Things With Wings".
INCY WINCY DESIGNS..."Things With Wings".

OMG.....IT'S BEEN THAT LONG I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M DOING !!!!!
Firstly HI to all....it's  been two years since i last blogged...and boy what a shock i had when i signed in to do this post....all change...so if this posts all over the show don't be suprised....LOL.
I haven't done much card making over the last two years....none really with any colouring on...in fact i haven't really done any colouring  during this time.....and have even purchased cards...now how bad is that!
I decided it was time to see if i could still step up to the mark....so yesterday i picked this gorgeous "Ava" image from Saturated Canary...sorted a couple of challenges out and set about creating a card..YAY!


So onto the card.....the challenge over at Saturated Canary at the moment is "Emerald" with a photo too for alittle inspiration....i've coloured "Ava" with a mixture of Copic's,Promarkers and Prisma Pencils.
The base card ive embossed with a A4 Embossalicious "Perfect Paisley" embossing folder.
I've used a scrap of Core'Dinations cardstock....alittle glitter for the ballon,ribbon and button from stash.
I've followed this weeks sketch over at Sketch Saturday....lovely sketch Jen...and perfect to ease me back in.....So with that i'll love and leave you for now...hope i can do the links..
Take care
