I just love these patterned papers and i wanted to use them to make as many cards as possible

Hi Everyone,

I hope Monday treated you well, at least it is now closer to the weekend than it was :)

As you may have gathered from my last two posts, i am absolutely in love with these blue and white patterned papers by Fabscraps, now i do have a scrap bits box but i know what i am like, the pile just gets bigger and i forget whats in there so they rarely get used. So i used this as motivation to try and use up as much of the patterned papers as possible. I also brought a whole load of digital images over the weekend and it just seemed rude not to use them :)

I also wanted to try something a little different with my layout so please feel free to leave any comments or suggestions, i tend to get in my comfort zone and then everything kind of becomes the same...i guess you don't know until you play around and try.

For this card i used:

Image - Saturated Canary

Patterned Papers - All by Fabscraps

Dies - Spellbinders

Pearls - From stash

Colouring - Copics (same colours as my last two posts but the addition of B21 for her beautiful eyes)

Card Stock - Bazzill

I would very much like to submit my card in the following challenges:

Cute Card Thursday - Fancy Corners

Crafty Cardmakers - Stripes

Crafters Cafe - Lots of Layers

Creative Knockouts - Lots of Layers

Crafty Catz - Use your dies/Punches

The Paper Shelter - Make it digital

Thank you so much for stopping by and taking the time to read my ramblings.

Have a fab week

Hannah Lynn - Monica

Hi Everyone.

Well i know, its a shocking surprised but another Hannah Lynn image. I haven't used Monica for some time but thought she would fit nicely with the layout i was going for.

I was trying a few different things with this one, i wanted to colour her hair using a different colour to my favourite brown copic combo on E13, E15, E17 and wanted to stick to the Purple and Blue colour scheme completely. On my bottom layer i only embossed two corners and i actually really live the effect it has, it really lifts that bottom layer and really draws your eye to the image.

For this card i used:

Hannah Lynn Monica Image
Cardstock and coloured paper from stash
Ribbon (coloured with my trusty copics) from Stash
Purple & Blue Gems by Kaiser Craft
Metallic Purple, Clear Star & Blue Star Gelly Rolls
Copics - BV11, B16, B45, E50
Embossing folders by Couture Creations and Cuttlebug

I would like to enter her in the following challenges:

Hannah Lynn Dahlia Image

Hi everyone,

I brought this designer paper pad quite some time ago, its by Papermania i think. I must confess that i brought it on a whim as it reminded me of a dinner set my Nan used to have for special occasions, that white china with the beautiful blue images. I am still not 100% sure why i brought it as the dark blue is not a colour i usually use in my cards, hence why it hasn't been used before but the patterns are gorgeous and i am glad i finally got around to using it :)

This is one of my favourite Hannah Lynn images, Dahlia is such fun to colour.

For this card i used:

White Bazzill card stock
Patterned Papers by Papermania
Hannah Lynn Dahlia image
Clear & Blue gems by Kaisercraft
White ribbon from stash
Blue Pearlesent paper from stash
Marine Star & Red Star Gelly Rolls
Copics - G05, C1, B21, B39, E13, E15, E17, E50

Skating Wryn - Have been looking forward to using this image

Hi Everyone,

Back again with another post, certainly a successful day crafting that's for sure. I enjoy it and i find it a great way to relax, well at least when i am not over analysing my work and stressing myself out LOL.

I purchased this image a while ago, i think i got a little carried away with my Hannah Lynn images and have neglected others that i have and today was about trying to use some of these images.

Isn't she super cute, i love how the image pops out when you highlight around it with light grey, its only a small thing but i find it really does make all the difference.

For this card is used:

Skater Wryn image & Sentiment
Designer Papers are by Kaiser Craft
Gems and Flowers by Kaiser Craft
Bazzill card stock
