Hummingbird - Inked Paws

Hello everyone

It is that time again over at Creative Card Crew for a new challenge.  The theme this fortnight is Blue and Silver and we are being sponsored by Simon says Stamp who are offering a $20 Gift Certificate. 

For this challenge I used one of my favourite images from Inked Paws, Hummingbird.  I coloured her up using my prisma pencils and used glossy accents on her eyeslips and rose.  I used blue coredinations paper and silver card as the layering and backing.  I cut the clock using Tim Holtz die again in the silver.  I then used 4 sets of hands for the corners.  I used Tim Holtz alphabet die for the sentiment.  She really does love that cute bird eh!  This has been mounted onto a white card and I will be using this for my friends birthday so this has served two purposes LOL.

Anyway that is it for me right now... need to head to bed.

Why not pop over to CCC for a chance to win that fab prize on offer.  You have to be innit to winnit!

Hummingbird - Kelly Rhodes, Inked Paws

I have put together another card using the talented Kelly Rhodes from over @ Inked Paws.  The image is Hummingbird and can be purchased on her site @ Facebook. (Inked Paws)

I used Prismacolor pencils for the image and added gems along with a feather on her costume.  I used a Whimsy die for the corners and added some stickles to shine them up.  The backing papers are from Raspberry Road.  

The flowers are from WOC and the ribbon, gems and tiny crystals from my stash.  The sentiment I created on my PC.  The miniature doilies I purchased from Tumdee and the crystal heart buttons are from the Stamp Basket. The inside reflects the front.

I really enjoyed making this card firstly because it for a very good friend who moved away (I did ask if it she did due to me LOL)and secondly I love the image.

Anyway thats it for now and try to be back later.....

Barons Daughter - Kelly Rhodes Inked Paws

I was so excited to get this card done as I love the image.  I have only just found this talented artist and have treated myself to a few of them.

This one is called Barons Daughter and I coloured her mainly with prismas pencils and a little promarkers for her skin.  I used plenty of glamour dust on the roses in the image as well as the WOC flowers.  The corners are from Whimsy dies.The tiny doily from my stock and cannot for the life of me where it was from and I so want some more so if you know where I can get them please let me know LOL.  Not sure about the sentiment either LOL.  The inside sentiment comes from Card Making Downloads.  The ribbon is from my stash as are the pearl gems.  The bow I made on my bowmaker.  So handy and couldn't do without it LOL.  Oh yes I managed to sneek in a tiny feather too..... Oh and glittered butterflies .....
