About Me

Welcome to my blog

I started this blog in April 2012 so I could join Challenges. I am now on some design teams. I hope you like my cards. I started stamping in 1995 but my cards are still mostly cute.

My card for Feeling Sketchy Week 11 June 11 2012

This is my card for the sketch challenge on Feeling Sketchy http://feeling-sketchy.blogspot.com.au/

This was the sketch challenge, we could substitute something else for the heart.
I used Alison Ellis paper for the triangle, to look like the wallpaper in a room and Kraftin' Kimmie Stamp set "Lucy" sitting on the floor reading.  I had two attempts at this card as the first time I cut the triangle the wrong way.  Coloured with Tria markers.

I notice that some people use one card for many challenges.  I like to make a separate card for each challenge.  I then use them for birthday cards during the week.

It is still teaming rain.  It hasn't stopped all day.

Great card! Havent tried the tria markers. Your colouring is great! Might have to invest in some of them. Still teaming with rain here too at the moment

Thank you Joey. I received a set of bright Tria markers with my subscription to Australian Simply Cards. I then bought a set of lighter colours from Fat Cats. I don't have any copics which seem to be the favourites of a lot of people.
