Who Needs School

Good Afternoon, we have just celebrated the 4th July. Lots of food and fireworks! It is hot hot hot but the humidity is up there too so not nice to be outside through the day!

So good time to be inside coloring and with this week's Chibi new release from Scrapper's Delights there is so much to color!

I have used Graffiti Gill and made a scene with the great wall that is included along with some of the fab graffiti:

These are fab images for teenager cards. I colored the whole image with Copic markers and added Staedtler pens for detail. I then matted an 8x8 inch black card with lime green. I added some of the graffiti words to a piece of florescent orange card and added this to my base. I matted my image with the same lime green card and added this to my card base. Simple card as the image didn't need anything else.

Head on over to the Scrapper's Delights Store to see all of the new releases.

Here are just a few of them:

We also have a monthly challenge where you can enter any makes you do

Cancer Zodiac

Good Afternoon! I have just come in after sitting in the yard sunning myself. First day of summer is a gorgeous sunny day - makes up for all the rain we've had this week.

Today is new release day at Scrapper's Delights and that means one thing - They have a VIP offer on with their new release. If you buy all 3 images you get a ton of zodiac images free! Check out the store for details

I loved the Cancer image so much I decided to blow it up and make a picture for Mollie's bedroom wall:

I printed the image large enough to fit on letter size card. I then colored this with Copic markers, Staedtler Triplus and a Spectrum Noir Sparkle pen. I even colored the mirror to look like her image is reflecting in it!

The picture was cut to size to fit in the frame. I then glued a collection of shells Mollie had been given by a relative during our vacation in the UK onto the glass of the frame. I also added some pearls to tie in with the image.

So do you like what you see? Then head on over to Scrapper's Delights and but the new release - there are some fab images:

Pete The Artist

Good afternoon, and what a beautiful one it is - I've got air conditioning running as it was 70f at 6.30am!

It's new release time over at Scrapper's Delights and they have some great images for artists and school leavers

The image I have worked with is called Painter Pete so I had to make my design colorful:

I printed him on X-Press It card and colored him with Copic markers, he was then fussy cut and put to one side while I made up my card for him. I matted a 5x7 white card base with red card. I then cut a piece of water color card as my next layer.

Brushos were then sprinkled over this in yellow, blue, green and red. I misted the card with water and let the Brushos react which gave me the splattered effect. This was then left to dry before adding to my card base. 

Pete was adhered to the card and my sentiment was typed up on my pc, matted with the red card and  added staggered on my card.

Painter Pete also has a female friend and there are 2 other Chibis images in the new release plus a bonus set of the Cancer star sign :

Aren't they just stinking cute!!!

Oh and here is a sneak peek of one of the July new releases, don't forget to keep a look out for these.
