mojo monday

Hello again,

I have made today's card for the Mojo Monday's sketch.
I have used the Sweet November's Star Girls Sagittarius image and coloured her with copics V06, v12.v15, e02,e00 E93, e04, r29,b02,b05. I have used the SU designer paper and SU cottage garden tag and changed the sentiment.

I paper peirced the borders and used the border punch.

Thank you for looking.

200th post



Hi everyone,

It's my 200th post!! I can't believe it.

Here are two cards that I made with my new Sweet November Star Sign stamps.

Here is Virgo and Scorpio. These are really fun to colour with copics you can be so creative.

The first card Scorpio I used the same colourings as the creator Amy had in one of her cards as I just love the colour combo. I put my personally touches with the stars (can you find the southern cross). I used SCS 214 sketch as the background and kept the colour combo going through the card. Gee I am a big fan of the Cherry Cobbler colour. The second card fell into place since I had the background all ready to go. I carried the green theme into the flower and I chose big blue eyes as I wanted a tropical theme. I ummed and ahhed which sentiment to use since I had limited space and eventually went with Stampin' Up! Happy birthday from hostess Afterthoughts stamps set.

Hope you enjoy it.

Easter Blessings


Hello everyone,

I am created this card for several challenges today.

I wanted to recreate the moment of the cross with the 3pm sunset. I sponged different purples to create a layer effect finishing with cameo coral and the green grass. The cross was stamped first and covered with a post it note to keep it clean. I coloured the cross with copics.

I used the MOJO monday's sketch and my new black satin ribbon, so I was delight the sketch as a ribbon element. YAY!

I am also entering it into the following challenges.
Anyone for Anya?? - Easter card
Stampin for the weekend - Easter
Have a good weekend.
