Add as much or little sparkle as you want .
There are so many options from sprays sequins stickles to name a few.
This challenge is sponsored by the awesome Lawn Fawn.

At first glance it might not be easy to see where i have added my sparkle. 

I can tell you there is so much shimmer and shine on this card in real life.

I added some gold glimmer mist to my panel after i had coloured with distress inks.

The fairy's wings also have so much sparkle from the diamond stickles.

I have also used wink of stella on the house and sequins and some gold stickles too.

Lawnscaping #129, calling all critters

Hello.
Super fun challenge today on the Lawnscaping blog, Calling all critters.
So many options are there for you to use your favourite critters :)
This challenge is sponsored by the fabulous Ellen Hutson.

I had a  lot of fun making this card.

I started by colouring a die cut panel with some distress inks. 

I used my favourite new technique...which is to use make up brushes.

Once the colour was on I added some extra interest by flicking water on and added some perfect pearls for some shimmer,

Then I used the icicle die for some grass.

The critters and flowers are all stamped on to water colour card and water coloured with Inktense pencils and a water brush.

Everything was then fussy cut.

Once everything was adhered in place I added the die cut sentiment which has been cut and layered three times then covered with perfect pearls and glossy accents.

Final finishing touches were some sequins and stickles.

Thanks for looking.

Hello.
Its time for a new challenge over at Lawnscaping challenges.
This time its a fun sketch you can follow exactly, flip it just use part of it mostly just have fun!
We are sponsored by the fabulous Lawn Fawn

I have used the sketch loosely and focused on the two diagonal stripes in the bottom right corner.

I started with my card base and used distress inks to make a cloudy background.

I then used a wavy die cut and a stitched cloud to follow the sketch.

I used the fairy friends stamp set .

The fairy is stamped in black archival ink and water coloured with Inktense pencils.

I used the small stars on the card base among the clouds and each one has some diamond stickles added.

I adhered the fairy and the speech bubble from A birdie told me on foam tape.

Thanks for looking.

Newton dreams of London

Hello I have my card for Seven hills crafts to share today.

Today's card is for the cat lovers.

I have inked up Newtons Nooks fun new set, Newton dreams of london.

I wanted a soft look to my cards  so I added some colour to my card base using distress ink.

All of the images were stamped on water colour card and coloured with Inktense pencils and a water brush.

I have kept quite clean and simple and just added some little extras with stickles and perfect pearls.

Again I have gone with almost the same style but made the background look more like splashes.

Hopefully it wont rain where you are today.

Hello.

Its new challenge time at Lawnsacping today.

Super fun challenge and open to lots of options it is "Beautiful Floral's".

We are sponsored by the fabulous Ellen Hutson so do join in for your chance to win.

Although the challenge graphic says add a flower or two I went a bit mad using the pretty flowers from fairy friends.

I repeat stamped the image all over my die cut panel of water colour card using black archival ink.

You know sometime you set out to make a clean and simple card but just cant stop?

That's what happened with this card lol.

I then stamped coloured and fussy cut all of my images.

I coloured all of the images with  Inktense pencils and a water brush.

The sentiment was simply stamped on to the bannerific die cut and adhered on foam tape.

Once everything was in place I added touches of clear wink of stella, some dots of diamond stickles and random dots of silver gel pen.

The water coloured panel was attached to a scalloped rectangle of lets polka paper and then the card base.

Thanks for looking.

In bloom birthday

Hello, here is my blog post from the  Seven hills crafts blog

My garden is in full bloom , well nearly just waiting on the tulips now but that inspired me to make this floral card using Winnie and Walters  In Bloom; Annas florals.

Each image is stamped in black archival ink and water coloured with Inktense pencils. 

I kept the colours quite light and I wanted a loose type of water colour style so I have used more water than I normally would.

I then fussy cut and adhered each one to the top part of my card Panel.

The panel was then added to my card base which has a stripe of patterned paper down one side.

The sentiment is also from Winnie and Walter , The big, the bold and the happy. 

To finish I added some sequins.

Thanks for looking.

Party Animal

Hello here is my card from the Make the day special stamp store.

Today's card came about because i was practising colouring with my inktense pencils.

I love the look you can get from them either very loose watercolour or by taking more time and more layers you can have a lot of control.

I have used Lawn fawn stamps sets Party animal and scripty sayings.

The images were all coloured with inktense pencils and a water brush then fussy cut.

I made the background with distress inks and perfect pearls the tamped the sripty sayings to looking like streamers at a party.

I didn't add any extras as i feel there is plenty going on.
