The Pink Elephant & WOYWW

Morning everyone. Hope we are all well. I have a house full of sick kids. My gosh I can't wait until they are all better. I really don't like cleaning up the poos and spews and it just keeps coming. Ahhhhhh....!!! It is doing my head in.

Anyway - thought I would do a What's on your workdesk Wednesday post. Not very exciting as always - I actually cleaned up my table somewhat yesterday so it was messy yesterday, maybe I should have done the photo then LOL. Here it is.

Thought I would make a card with the Oh Boy, Ian stamp I got from TGF for the Card for a Stamp Swap. He is so darling. Great to colour. I always struggle with boy cards but think I just need to more of them. The Pink Elephant are showcasing cards made with ribbon so thought I would whack one together as well.

Anything goes with Tilda

Good morning everyone. It is Thursday so it is my Mad for Markers post day. I must admit I did colour up this stamp a few weeks back waiting for this challenge but only just used the sketch over at Friday Sketchers to create the card. It took me a while to find the DP to go with the colours on this. Unfortunately the bluey-grey of these BV markers do not match a lot but I found the perfect one from Kaisercraft.

I have used the 352gsm card with this card and OMG I am so in love with this card. If you haven't already preordered your card you 'need' to do it now. It is perfect card to use Copics with - it really does blend better than the thinner card. If you use Papertrey ink card than you will love this (hint hint Alleena). LOL.

Anyway a list of colours are at the bottom.


Markers used:
Skin: E000, 00, 21, 02
Hair: YR20, 21, E08
Dress/shoes: BV20, 23, 25, 29, R12, 14, 17
Shading: B0000, B000; G1, blender


Products used: Magnolia stamp; Kaisercraft DP; SU card; SU flowers; beads; thread; AC ribbon; Ezybow

MDUC #76

Good morning everyone. Wow what a silly season it is indeed. I just can't get over how many people are at the shops on the weekend. It is so crazy. If they were smart like me they would have got their Christmas shopping done ages ago - but alas they aren't and are leaving to the last minute. I can't even go to the shops and buy something that is not for Xmas. Crazy I tell ya.

Anyway enough of my ramble. I have finally made a card for Magnolia Down Under Challenge. It has been nearly a year since I left and haven't entered a challenge :( My Magnolia's just weren't appealing to me for a while there but last night I decided I needed to use one of my new Christmas stamps for the new colour Challenge at MDUC. The colour challenge is to use: Red, Brown and Cream on your card. So here is my take on the challenge.

Enjoy your day.
Products: Magnolia stamp from Tickled Pink Stamps; Spellbinders Frame die; Kaisercraft DP; SU card; Memento Rich Cocoa ink; SU ribbon; I am Roses flowers; Antique Linen distress ink; Copic markers used- Skin; E000, E00, E21, E02; Dress/hair: E50, E51, E53, E55, Blender; Socks/Wings: R11, R12, R14, R17; Wand: YR12, YR14, E08, E59, E49; Dress trim: E57, E59, E55.
