Hello chicks...

I created this card for the Challenge over at Tiddly Inks.

Challenge #163

Paws for Thought (Animals)

I used these cute chicks/birds for my card and hand-wrote the HELLO greeting on the image .

I added some cute little feathers on the one side of my card to give it a little texture

I hand stitched around the base of the image and the patterned paper too.

This card is 9 x 4" (fitting into a #10 Business envelope) 

Here's a peek at the feathers and stitching.

I hope you like what I've created.  It had a lot of fun with this card.

Time for a new challenge at Kit and Clowder

and this month we have a really fun theme "Aminals"

We all got to play with this stunning image Winterlight Wishes Wryn by Tiddly Inks.

Colours used

Polar Bear - BV00, BV11, BV13

Girl - BV11, BV13, Alyce's Skin Colours

Fox - E15, E19

Sky - purple and blue chalks + yellow moon

I had a lot of fun with this image and wanted to do it in non-traditional colours.  Of course it's a relatively CAS creation.  It's mounted on black and then Silver cardstock to give it some pop.  

I hope you're inspired to play along with us this month for a chance to win 3 digis of your choice from Tiddly Inks !!

There are all kinds of wonderful classes at Kit and Clowder.  You can check out the Animal Class to learn how to colour a variety of animals (even penguins - woo hoo!!)

A little bit about my colouring journey...
If you've been following my blog at all you'll see that my colouring has improved in leaps and bounds since starting the Skin and Hair class.  over at Kit and Clowder.  I can't wait to get into the Clothing class soon (I've signed up and printed the class booklet, and done a little reading)

Here's a peek at my before and after images...
coloured after taking only part of the Skin and Hair Class

Tiddly Inks new release at Kit and Clowder

I created this journal for myself!!  I just love this new Tiddly Inks Image BEARY SWEET

I used the basic skin colours from Kit and Clowder's Hair and Skin Class
E000, E00, E11, E21, E04 and R20

For the dress I used R83, R85

For the hair I used E23, E33, E37

I gave this journal a bit of a shabby chic look and even made a bookmark to hold my place in it using the Japanese symbols for LOVE, LUCK and HAPPY from the new BEARY SWEET SAYING. image.

I hope you'll head over to Tiddly Inks to see all that they have to offer, and pop over to Kit and Clowder to see all the wonderful things going on there (Great Classes, challenges and a wonderful array of cards from card-markers/colourists of all skill levels).
