Guest Designer Noelle Martin using Ellie with Kittens

Guest Designer Noelle Martin has made two wonderful cards using the same stamp, Ellie with Kittens!  This is such a sweet image, and I know Noelle is a big fan of kittens; she has two of her own :)

This rubber stamp can be found in the online shop here.  If you're looking for darling images that are great for all ages and walks of life, you can find them in the The Paper Nest Dolls Shop.  Christine's images get cuter and cuter all the time.

Thank to Noelle for sharing these great creations with us, we hope you can find something on the blog or in the shop to inspire you!  Don't forget to join in with the Anything Goes Challenges every month here on the challenge blog.  If you use a PND image, you can be eligible for the top prize.

Vannessa's Inspiration Post Using Fairy Emma with Unicorn

Good morning and welcome to another inspiration post from me! Today I am sharing with you a card I made using Fairy Emma with Unicorn using non-girly colours. I tend to always go for pinks or purples when using fairy images, so I thought I would challenge myself to use some different colours for a change. The patterned papers were the colour inspiration this time and I actually really like this change.

She has been coloured with Copics and you can find out more about her on my blogpost here.

Don't forget there are still a few days left to play along with our challenge and there are some fabulous prizes to be won too! 

Some Creative Inspiration "Using Little Birdie Ellie"

DT Melanie here!!! Today I have a really sweet card. While out house hunting with my mother we have ran across some beautiful flowers. I have snapped photos with my phone every chance I have gotten. I have always loved the purple and yellow combo but when adding the green it really has given it a fresh look. 

I am using the adorable Paper Nest Doll's stamp called "Little Birdie Ellie Isn't she just precious? I have used the Focal Friday collage above as my inspiration.

 

I adore using Wild Orchid Craft Flowers and they worked perfectly for this theme. I had a lot of fun with the birdie. My mother was with me in my craft room while coloring and she suggested to color her like a Robin so here is my attempt with it. How did I do?

I have used some fun dies with this card as well as Copic Markers. Here is the selection I have used.

Here is a close up of my coloring.

I even finished the inside to match.

Thank you for stopping by today. I'd love for you to join my Facebook Page to share your projects using this week's Focal Friday. Happy Stampin!
