Baby Line

This brand new digi image called "Baby Line" from Just Inklined is perfect for the birth of a new baby.

Coloured with Promarkers and lots of matting and layering going on. Can't remember the colours I used but what's new? lol

Hope you all had a good weekend and enjoying this very warm weather!! lol

Purple Magnolia

I coloured this gorgeous Magnolia image from Just Inklined in purple because I loved the colour, then realised there probably wasn't such a thing as a purple magnolia, but to my relief after doing a google search, there is such a thing!!! lol

I coloured it in with Promarkers and also coloured the ribbon and pearls which started life as white, the corners were done with a Stampin' Up corner punch and the embossed background was done using a score board.

Colours used are:
Flowers: Aubergine, Purple and Orchid
Leaves: Pear Green, Lime Green and Lime Zest

See you soon xx

Happy Fathers Day Dad

My Dad's Father's Day card for this year.

This is a large 8" x 8" card and I used the gorgeous Forever Friends Retro Collection.

Hope you all have a lovely weekend whatever you're doing and Happy Father's Day Dad xxx

CDAC Sketch Challenge

For all you Just Inkined fans out there, there's a Sketch Challenge over at CDAC with a chance to win three of your favourite digi images. Here's the link with all the details and if you pop over to the Just Inklined blog here, you will find lots of inspiration from the Design Team.

Coloured mine with Promarkers and just used a bit of black and red card and ribbon and that's it!! Easy peasy lemon squeazy!!!

** This challenge has now closed but this fantastic image can be purchased here **

Have a nice day whatever you're doing xx

Colourful Cupcakes

Cupcakes seem to be the fashion at the moment, even wedding cakes are being made out of them, but unfortunately I don't particularly like them. I love looking at them, but as I haven't got a sweet tooth I don't eat them!!!

I loved colouring them in though and this great image from Just Inklined called "High Tea" can be found here.
The cupcake backing paper is from the DCWV pad "The Sweet Stack", and the border is done using the good old Romance board from the Glitter Girls.

Hope you're all enjoying your weekend xx

Black and Gold

I love the Forever Friends bears and this little chap is from the "Black and Gold" range.

The little bear is a ready made decoupage topper and the backing paper is from the Black and Gold pad. The dots are actually shiny gold but the photo doesn't pick it up too well.
Finished off with the usual ribbon and pearls and the border was done using a fiskars border punch.

Have a nice day whatever you're doing xx

Book Box Card

I've seen a few of these book box cards on my blog hopping travels and knew I had to try making one myself. To be quite honest they're so much easier than I thought they'd be and for a first attempt I'm really pleased with it.

There are quite a few tutorials up and down but the one I used and found the easiest was from Bonnie's blog here. Thanks Bonnie x
The backing paper is from Marianne Design Eline's Babies Blue pad. The roses are handmade using a Woodware punch and the leaves are punched with a Leone Em punch.

That's it for now, have a nice day xx

Flower Power

Hiya and welcome to this month's Just Inklined blog hop. Our host this month is Debbie and her theme choice is "Flower Power".

The gorgeous peony image can be found here and I coloured it in with Promarkers (can't remember colours as usual!!). The delicious sparkly backing paper is from DCWV "The Sweet Stack" and the flowers and leaves are punched.

If you're following the hop in the right order you should have arrived here from Toni and from here you need to pop over to Cathy and see what little beauty she's got in store for you.

In case you get lost here's the hop in the correct order. Enjoy!!
