Welcome to Funday Friday Challenge #57 over at  Jo's Scrap Shack

Our theme for this week is "July 4th" 

This weeks sponsor is The Paper Nest however they didn't have a digi stamp available to fit this theme so I did an internet search and found this cute image on Pinterest  from Dearie Dolls Digi Stamps.

My image makes me very sentimental.  As an Australian who spent some years in the USA it reminds me how much of my heart was left behind there.  The July 4th holiday was always one I loved.  The community getting together, the parade, fireworks, and fun.

My image has been coloured with copic markers. I watched a great little video online this week at MarkerPop on easy backgrounds to give images a little more pop or dimension - thus giving me the idea for my grass.  

I loved the simplicity of the image and so just wanted to leave it plain on the card cutting it just short of the card front dimensions so I could simply edge with a copic.

Copics used

• Flag:- R24, B06
• Dress, Shoes, Socks :- B06, B04 B000, W3, 110
• Hair:- E25, E27, E29, E00
• Grass:- G14

Welcome to Funday Friday Challenge #53 over at  Jo's Scrap Shack

Our theme for this week is "Anything Goes" 

Our Sponsor this week is The Paper Nest - I have used their fabulous digital image Artist Avery.

My image has been coloured with copic markers . I then went to look for some background papers and I found this piece in my scraps with the window already cut out. It fit over the image perfectly.  I would have coloured it a long time ago but I can tell you that it is coloured with alcohol inks onto photo or glossy paper.  I finished it off with a ribbon from my stash.

Welcome to Funday Friday Challenge #52 over at  Jo's Scrap Shack

I can hardly believe that it is the one year anniversary of  the Funday Friday Challenges.  

Our theme for this week of course is HB2U - so create a project for a Happy Birthday

Our Sponsor this week is 3 Twenty Crafts - I used their fabulous stamp set Simple Sentiments

I used papers from my stash.  I cut strips for my ruffles sprayed water on the back so they were easier to manipulate. I then waited for them to dry so that the tape would stick. Of course I was trying when they were still damp LOL.  So I arranged the three ruffles on top of one another then found a piece of ribbon in my stash to cover the top.  

This was my first attempt at paper ruffles so I think I might go down this road again.

I hope you join in with us - Come on get creative.

Welcome to Funday Friday Challenge #49 over at  Jo's Scrap Shack

This week we want you to think a little out of the box and make a shaped card - lots of great inspiration by the design team over at Jo's.

This week's sponsors are Bugaboo and Abusybee  

I used the fabulous digital image Clyde Made with Love.

My image has been coloured with copic markers .  I then used watercolours to fill in my background.  I have just recently started to use this medium - not bad for the beginnings of something new.  I used a piece of scrap I had from a previous project for the card front. Both the card front and the image were die cut with a QuicKuts nesting scallops die.  I just put the card front through halfway in my Cuttlebug.

I hope you join in with us - Come on get creative.

All the details can be found over at  Jo's Scrap Shack

I hope you join in with us - Come on get creative.
