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.
Thank you to those who have joined as followers and to those who comment.

Julia Spiri challenge 1 - use something new

The day we have all been waiting for has finally arrived and it is time for the first challenge on the Julia Spiri challenge blog and the theme is anything goes with a twist/use something new
http://juliaspirichallengeblog.blogspot.com.au/

I have used my new Julia Spiri digi stamp "Mermaid and Octopus"
New paper from Lozzy's "Fun" paper set
Sentiment from Ginger's House blog.
Sun, fish, shells and birds from Sweet Shoppe Designs and Digital Scrapbooking Studio.
I have coloured the image with twinkling H2Os, chalks, markers. Glitter pens for the beads in her hair.
I wanted to colour the hearts on her tail a different colour but I am having eye problems so they were too small for me to see.

I hope you will go over to the challenge blog and see the lovely work by the design team and join in the challenge.

We also invite you to join in the challenge on the Julia Spiri fans facebook group

Good idea to color using the H2O's I have never done that. Maybe I should pull them out and have a go at it. Thanks for joining us at Crafty Hazelnut's Patterned Paper challenge.
