Cowabunga!!!

Good afternoon! I have been so busy with paperwork for applying for our green card that I haven't posted much over the last few weeks. I think I am now caught up with all that so I'm back to blogland!

Today is my showcase day for Scrapoholic Candy Shop and I have another sweet critter for you today

Meet Turtle from the Snuggle Palz collection

He comes as a set with the adorable cat too!

So I wanted to do something different with him to show how you can turn these characters into designs for all ages.

Meet Raphael

Yes I added a mask to him and he now looks like a cute version of well know ninja!

After drawing in his mask I colored him with my alcohol markers. I found some design papers on a party website that were perfect for the design so I matted these with red card before adding to a 6x6in card blank.

I then used my graphics program to make my well know sentiment and after matting them with the same red card I added this and my image to the card

Of course you don't have to color him up as a Ninja the images are great to use with any design and so easy to color!

You can find him and all his friends in the Snuggle Palz section of the Scrapoholic Candy Shop 

We also have a Facebook page where you can get more inspiration from me and my teamies, there are also giveaways and discounted posted frequently!

Ingredients used:

Spectrum Noir ultra smooth premium white card stock 

Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers

TMNT design papers

Red card

Feeling Beachy

Good morning - one more month of Summer break left - I can survive this!!!!! The school break is just way too long.

 

yes it's August the first which means another challenge starts over at So Suzy Stamps. The theme this month is under the sea - although my card is a beach theme the lovely little turtle does venture under the sea!

 

 

This little guy is has been colored with my spectrum noirs and fussy cut . The frame card was made from 2 beach scenes I printed on my PC and a template from My Craft Studio. I typed the sentiment onto one of the scenes. I then made up the frame and centered it over the wording, ensuring I matched the beach lines up before gluing it in place.

 

I stole a couple of starfish and a shell from Mollie's collection and added these as embellishments.
