My Chrisymas card from Fiance

My Fiance has made my Christmas card for the last three years, here is this years card. I had already coloured the green of the hat but he coloured everything else on the image and is very proud of his effort.

Friday Sketchers card

I made this card for my Fiance's brother following the sketch over on Friday Sketchers and am also entering it at Stamp Something for their Holiday Somethings challenge.

Mojo Monday Card

This is the Christmas card I'm giving my Fiance, his favourite colour is purple so Ive used that on the Forever Friend Bears hat. I followed the sketch from Mojo Monday but was too late uploading it to enter.

Sunday Sketch and Stamp Card

I made this card for my future Mother-in-Law for Christmas. I used the more traditional Christmas colours on this card and hope she likes it. I followed the sketch over on Sunday Sketch and Stamp as I really liked this sketch.

Friendship Swap card

Ive made this card for my docrafts friendship swap partner, I hope she likes it. I followed the sketch from Sketch Saturday. Im also entering this into the Creative Card Crew Challenge for Anything Goes.
The Gorguss Girl was coloured using Promarkers - greys 1-5, lavendar, lilac, amethyst and aubergine.

Quick Christmas cards

Here are a couple of quick Christmas cards I made for my Fiance to give out to people at his work. I had previously coloured the images so the cards took about 10 minutes to make.

Papertake weekly Card

This is the Christmas card I made for my Nan, her favourite colour is blue so I've chosen this as my entry into the Papertake Weekly challenge to not use red or green.
The image was coloured using Promarkers
Hat and Scarf - cyan and sky blue,
Snow - lavendar and cool aqua

One Stop Craft Challenge

The sketch for this card came from last weeks One Stop Craft Challenge. The image was again coloured with promarkers -
Stoking and presents - forest green, grass, lime green, crimson, berry red and red.
Hedgie - vanilla, ivory, pale pink and cool greys 1-5

Sugar Bowl sketch

I really liked the sketch over at the Sugar Bowl so have adapted it and used the Penny Black Little Snowy stamp as my image. I've used promarkers to colour the image and am now getting used to them and want more for Christmas but which colours - decisions decisions.
Hat and scarf - Aubergine, lilac and lavendar
Stosking - soft green, pastel green and blender
Snow - lavendar and cool aqua
Nose - red

Papertake Weekly Challenge

Here I have adapted the sketch from Papertake to create this Christmas card. The image was coloured using promarkers:
Hat and scarf - cyan, sky blue and blender
Stocking - marine, turquoise and blender

Penny Black Saturday Challenge

Here's my attempt at the sketch over on Penny Black Saturday Challenge. I just love Little Snowy, he's so versatile and can match any colour theme. Here I coloured him in with promarkers
Hat and scarf - Crimson and Berry Red
Stocking - Olive green and Moss.

Pink Christmas Card

Pink is not a colour I normally use as I'm not a huge fan but many of my friends love it. I quite enjoyed making this card as its such a change from the usual colours I use.

Blue and Gold Christmas Card

Here's another christmas card, this time I've used a blue and gold(ish) colour theme. The image was coloured using my new Promarkers which I really enjoy using.

Stampin for the Weekend Card

This is the card I've designed using the colours lilac and silver with a tag from Stampin for the Weekend. The scarf and hat are coloured using lavendar, lilac and aubergine.

Forever Friend Christmas card

I used promarkers to colour this Forever Friends stamp which came free with Creativity magazine. I have used the holly embossing folder from cuttlebug as I like to include some embossing on my cards.
The bear was coloured using oatmeal, apricot and vanilla pens.

30th Birthday Card

I loved this sketch when I saw it on I Love Promarkers and as Ive just got some promarkers and thought I would give it a go. The card was made for my sisters 30th birthday.
Hair, trousers and cookies - henna, cocoa and cinnamon
Bow, top and slippers - marine, turquoise and cool aqua
Apron - aubergine, amethyst, lilac and lavendar

Joanna Sheen celebrated her forums fourth birthday yesterday. She asked people to make a card to help celebrate and here is my attempt. The girl was coloured using my sisters promarkers.

White Christmas Card

Ive used the white on white design from the Penny Black Saturday Challenge. This challenge was from a couple of weeks ago but I liked this idea and finally got round to making a card using it.

Mojo Monday /Cupcake Craft card

This is the card I made for the challenge on Mojo Monday. This is the first challenge I've taken part in, I really liked this sketch so thought I would give it a go. I have also entered it into the Snow Much Fun challenge over on Cupcake Craft Challenges.

November Card Swap

This is the card I made yesterday for my November card swap partner. I hope she likes it. The image is coloured using Whispers pens.

First 2009 Christmas Card

This is the first Christmas card Ive made this year. Little Snowy was coloured using the Contemporary Christmas pack of Promarkers. Its the first time Ive used Promarkers at home so I was a little worried I wouldnt do the pens or image justice.

This is the card Ive made for my fiancee. His favourite colours are purple and blue so Ive used these on the card and combined them with the most boy-friendly Penny Black Hedgie stamp I have. The image was coloured using whispers pens. The bottom right hand corner has three small tiles purple, blue and silver in colour.

Black and red square birthday card

I like this layout so much Ive used it again. I like the contrast between black and a bright colour such as red. I used a Penny Black stamp and coloured it with Whispers pens.

30th birthday card - blue

Here is the card I made for my friends 30th birthday the other week. Her favourite colour is blue so I thought this card layout worked well.

New blog

After much persuasion and with having free time now Ive managed to start my own crafting blog. It may take some time to get to grips with the whole thing so dont expect too much to happen for a while.
