Breezy & Beautiful

Day 5 of Krista's colouring challenge has the theme of 'Favourite Krista Image'. I've dug out one of my old rubber stamps from the 'Saturated Canary' days called Breeze. I love her sassy pout and lovely flowing hair!

Especially for You

I've had this super cute llama image called Penelope and Percy which I've never coloured up, so this was the perfect image to for the 'Together' theme for Day 4. I used an old pair of earrings as a bonus embellishment too, to give it that extra bit of glam.

Especially for You

Another entry for Krista's colouring challenge. This time I'm using Bubbles Mermaid for the 'Under the Sea' theme. Again coloured in Copics.

Thinking of You

Playing along with Krista's colouring challenge. This is my entry for 'Thinking of You' using Grow, coloured in Copics.

River Love

This is another card request. The intended recipient lives on a houseboat with her dog. This is the closest digi stamp I could come with. I used an old Kit and Clowder monthly class as inspiration for the background (September 2016).

Card ingredients include:

Stamp: Krista Smith Stamps Big Doggie Luv

Coloured in Copics

Lovely Fairy

I'm really enjoying to see how I can use my watercolour brush markers to their full extent. This is my first effort at colouring a digi stamp up. Not as much definition as with markers or with pencils, but can definitely see progress.

Card ingredients include:

Stamp: Krista Smith Art Lovely Fairy

Coloured in Zig watercolour brush markers

Autumn Goddess

It was a successful day of being on holidays and ignoring the kids and spending the day in my studio challenging myself to put into practice all that I've learnt from the past Create & Learn classes from Kit & Clowder. I decided to use one of the recent Krista Smith subscription images over a random background images I found in my collection.
