Toadally Fun!!

Happy Sunday to you all
Five little speckled frogs
Sat on a speckled log
Eating some most delicious bugs.
YUM! YUM!
One jumped into the pool,
Where it was nice and cool,
Now there are four green speckled frogs!
GLUB! GLUB!

Have you seen all the cute ribbons in the Crafty Ribbons store

along with there fabulous buttons 

I created a trio of fun

The little bag was cut on my portrait and attatched the 

Animal Cuties jumping Frogs Ribbon

Loving this ribbon so much!

I just adore his sparkly crown, every Frog should own one

I then coloured two Frogs from 

Toadally in Love Set

these are from DigiStamp Boutique

They are a set of 3 frogs , a rock and also sentiments 

Well worth a nosey!

I added googly eyes for some extra fun

I used Graph'It Markers to colour up and then some chunky glitter

Finishing of attatching Ribbon and then those absolutly stunning fun buttons

Basics 2 Go Heart Bright Buttons

They were the perfect finish

 Don't forget to take a peek at my little video for lots more inspiration xx

Happy Wednesday Everyone

I had a miserable day yesterday, so last night sat down and did a little crafting

It cheered me to use the bright colours , and the sun has got his hat on today

Sooooo here is what I made.

I had seen a similar cut card in my magazine , so that was my base

I simply die cut most of a circle die onto my 6x6 card 

I then dusted round with Distress Oxide Inks ~ Using magical Unicorn colours

I used a paint brush to add water droplets and then dried.

I matted the inside of my card with Pink Pearl Centura card (very pretty)

and then added a square of acetate to cover the circle

Then came the fun part , colouring and adding the images and seeing my card come to life.

I already knew I was going to use the unicorn with the sentiment - I got them both for FREE , as I joined in last months Facebook Challenge, for Digi Stamp Boutique. How cool is that!!

Be sure to join in , there are some really lovely cute images instore at very affordable prices.

If you did not join in last month you can still get the image right here (be quick it is also on offer)

I also wanted to add in an image that I had for some time

Fairy and Unicorn

I coloured both images using Polychromo Pencils and Graph'It Markers and then I used a Spectrum Noir Sparkle pen, it really is hard to capture the sparkle in camera mode but in real life it twinkles away

I finished off with a few random mini pearls

 Thank you so much for looking 

and here is wishing you a magical type of Unicorn day

Happy Saturday

So much snow again in the UK oh dear does that really mean I have to keep warm and cosy in my craft room? Such a shame (she lies)

I have been trying a few new ideas these last couple of days some have been automatically binned but there are a couple I quite like and have stored for future use

I saw this new image the other day from Digi Stamp Boutique

Silhouette Fairy

Normally I use stamps with my Distress Oxide inks, more for ease really but I loved this digi so much , I really wanted to make it work

I used very pastel Distress Oxides I am going to make another but go really bright

I removed some of the oxides with splatters of water , her wings were painted with sparkly watercolour paints

I also love the border that came with the Fairy, how lovely is that (hurry to the store its on offer at the moment)

The sentiment used is from another  set from Digi Stamp Boutique Black Floral (sorry there is no link but I can not see it for looking I'm wondering if its a retired set)

Thank you for stopping by today

Happy Monday

I have had so much fun today playing with my distress oxides

I love these sooooo much

I had wanted to try a galaxy effect for a long time and today was the day

I used various colours of distress oxide inks and used black soot and faded jeans to bring it all together.

I splashed with water at the end and dried it with my heat gun . I then used a Posca white pen to dot some tiny stars. For my first try at a galaxy I am pretty pleased I would change a few of the colours next time 

The planet and sentiment and cute alien monster are from Digi Stamp Boutique

Space Adventure Set

This is absolutly amazing value , you get 7 digi stamps plus sentiments

It was absolutly perfect for my galaxy effect.

For the sentiment I edged with Distress Oxides and did a little squiggle around

The planet was painted using silver water colour paint

and the little monster alien was coloured using Graph'It Markers

The Ribbon is from Crafty Ribbons, which I totally love

Well it's half term next week which means I get to have my beautiful Granddaughter for the week and not only is it pancake day it is also valentines day and this is going to be her fun little tag for her gift

Thank you so much for looking today
