A new Willow Sketchie Challenge

I can't believe it is Thursday already and time for another Willow Sketchie Challenge. This week we have a lovely sketch by Rosie and a recipe. Rosie wants to see some embossing, some holes and some leaves on your projects this week.
I embossed some pink card from the Papermill shop and covered my base card with it. The butterfly paper is from the DCWV Blossoms and Butterflies stack. I die cut a scalloped square and punched holes through the scallops to mat my gorgeous Ballet fairy image onto. I finished the card with a gingham ribbon, the sentiment backed with leaves and a couple of gems.
Here is Rosie's lovely sketch. Make sure you pop over to the blog to see the rest of the DTs cards and to join in with the Challenge for the chance of winning some of Sharon's gorgeous images.
Have a lovely Thursday.

A new Willow Sketchie Challenge

It's Thursday already so time for another Willow Sketchie Challenge. This week we were given another lovely Ballet fairy image to play with and a sketch by Sharon.

The recipe that Sharon wanted us to incorporate into our card layouts this week was:

1. Something pleated

2. Something pink

3. Something floral

All the papers I used, are from the new Henbury lane collection by Papermaia. I added some pink pleated gingham ribbon, a couple of Imaginesce flowers and some Prima gems. The image was coloured with Promarkers and I added glitter to the wings and the edge of the image panel.

Here is Sharon's lovely sketch, lots of lovely layers, a great way to use up all your scraps!
I hope you will be able to join us for this Challenge for the chance to win a digi download from Willow designs.
Have a lovely Thursday!

My DT card for the next Willow sketchie Challenge

It's time for another Willow Sketchie Challenge and this time Heidi has given us a lovely sketch to work with and a Recipe theme: 3 buttons, 2 papers and 1 ribbon.

I used some lovely papers from the Walter Owl download and this week we got to have a play with the Grace digi stamp. She is so lovely to colour in and I coloured her with my Promarkers using lovely pastelly shades. The Butterfly button was bought in France and the mini buttons are from a little shop in Cornwall.
The ribbon is from Craftwork cards.

Heidi's sketch was very chic and classic and lovely to follow, I will definitely be using it again.
I hope you will have time to join us for this Challenge to have the chance to win some of Sharon's gorgeous digi stamps.
Have a lovely Thursday, the sun is shining here and I have the afternoon off. I am having lunch with my best Friend and her adorable Son and then I am off out this evening for a Craft session with my lovely Crafty Friends. I will be stamping and colouring and die cutting all night! Bliss!

My DT card for the Willow Sketchie Challenge.

Here is my card for the next Willow Sketchie Challenge. For this fortnight's Challenge, we got to play with the Walter Owl download. He was so much fun to colour in and I really like these backing papers, I think they will be really handy for New Baby cards and for Easter. I just love playing with ally my Willow Designs scraps and seeing what I can make as they are so gorgeous and I hate to throw them away!
I used my new Martha Stewart punch on this card and some of my Nestabilities, the Butterfly is also a new punch I bought last weekend. I love it! I used what I think are flower centres which I bought from Ashridge farm to make antennaes.

The sentiment is by Hero Arts, I think their sentiment sets are unbeatable, so versatile and always lovely fonts. The sentiment was stamped on to a Spellbinders tag shape through which I threaded a lovely lilac gingham ribbon. The gems are by Papermania and Kanban.

Not so sure about my colouring this week, I have been experimenting with a new linen card and my Promarkers and it is not as nice to use as the canvas textured card I had got used to.

This is the lovely sketch by Karen which we followed this week. Make sure you pop over to the Willow Sketchie blog to check out the rest of the DT's gorgeous makes. Join in with the Challenge this week and you could win one of Sharon's gorgeous Willow designs downloads.
Have a lovely Thursday!

New Willow Sketchie Challenge DT Project

It's time for a new Willow Sketchie and this one is a gorgeous sketch by Karen. I was really chuffed to be able to have a play Sharon's latest download to create my DT project. The new image is so cute and the papers that go with it are just amazing and were so lovely to work with.
I decided to make a box of notelets as my DT project and used the sketch to decorate the lid.


I made the box using some pearlescent card from Payperbox and my scoring board. I inked each layer to give some extra depth. I am addicted to inking the edges of my card layers at the moment!
I added a sentiment from Elzybells which fitted the theme perfectly onto one of my new Nestie label shapes.

I filled the box with 5 Notecards which I decorated with leftover scraps from my Printouts and more images. I used some precoloureds and coloured the rest with my Promarkers.

Here is an arty close up shot of the box lid :-)


Make sure you pop on over to the blog to see all the other DT projects, the girls have made some amazingly inspirational projects this week. Here is a copy of the gorgeous sketch.


I hope you will be able to take part for the chance of winning one of Sharon's stunning downloads.

I hope you are all ok and having a good week.
