MFT SUPERSTAR ENTRY #2

Back again already.

I couldn't figure out how to link up a second card from the same blogpost so here is my second card again.

All the details are in my previous post.

Thanks again for stopping by, and good luck to all the lovely cardmakers who have entered.

Hugs,

MFT DESIGN SUPERSTAR CONTEST

Hi there and welcome back to my creative space. It's been over 12 months since I have posted, but that doesn't mean I haven't been creating. Just spending much needed family time with my loved ones.

As soon as I saw this awesome competition from MFT I knew it was time to start posting again.

So here goes.

My first card uses a combination of two stamp sets. Pure Innocence cupcake Day and Birdie Brown Somebunny.

I have colored her with copic markers then paper-pieced her clothing.

Patterned papers are from the new 6X6 paper pad called Sweet Celebration.

My second card also uses papers from the Sweet Celebration paper pad.

Stamps used are Birdie Brown Somebunny and You're Rawr-some.

On both cards I have used Nuvo crystal drops for accents.

I hope you like my cards.

Feel free to stop by the MFT blog (link in my sidebar) to see all the awesome entries.

Happy crafting,

Hugs,

Tracey :)

DS204 HAVE A FANTASTIC DAY

Hi there friends. Unfortunately I'm the bearer  of some sad news today. This week's Deconstructed Sketch will be the last ever! It's been a wonderful couple of years on Jen's design team, and I will continue to refer to her sketches for ideas for years to come I am sure.  

Here is my card for this week. I hope you like it......

The image is a Ppinkydolls digi stamp, which I have printed on xpress blending card and colored with copic markers.

Papers are a new range from October afternoon. 

Here is Jen's fab sketch.....

Be sure to pop over to the dt blogs for some inspiration. 

To celebrate our final sketch there will be a prize, and there will be 2 weeks to get your entries in.

Thank you for stopping by.

Hugs,

Hi there friends,

It's time for a new Deconstructed Sketch.

It's been a super-busy week so far for me so i have no colouring to share.

I hope you like my card anyway....

The sentiment and papers are all from Pebbles, which made my card come together quickly and easily since they all match.

Here is Jen's fab sketch for the week....

Make sure you pop on over to check out the other DT girls for more inspiration.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my HUBBY

Hi there friends.

It's time for a new DECONSTRUCTED SKETCH

Hubby celebrated his Birthday this week, and I am well known for neglecting him on the card front.

So I made it my mission to surprise him with a handmade card, even though masculine cards are really not my strong point.

Here is my card....

I've used this cool MR Fixit digital image from Mo's digital pencil, which can be found to purchase HERE

The image is printed on Xpress It cardstock, and coloured with copic markers.

I've added grungy stamping, denim, string, cogs and screws to finish off the masculine look.

Here is Jen's fab sketch......

Hello dear friend

Hi there friends.

To celebrate passing the 200 sketch milestone over at THE DECONSTRUCTED SKETCH, we are each choosing our favourite sketch this week out of all 200.

Since I really love colouring, I like sketches with a large area to color on, so I have chosen one of the earliest sketches, DS19.

I hope you like my card.....

I have used a cute new Saturated Canary image called BAKER. She can be found in Krista's shop HERE.
