Friday Sketchers #103 ... and a Whiff of Joy ;)

 Hi!! I hope you are all having a great Sunday. It's very warm here today, perfect weather for a BBQ... certainly too hot to cook indoors, lol.

My card today is created using the awesome sketch over on Friday Sketchers. I also made my card with the guest DT call on Whiff of Joy in mind. The colours to use are Red, Orange and one of your choice, so I chose black. Of course when I read what the colours were BG Marrakech sprang to mind.. but I was all out.. typical. However I did have some Ambrosia left and they were perfect for the colour combo Katharina asked for. 

Angel Charlotte is the newest addition to my collection of Whiff of Joy stamps. I have coloured her using copic markers. I've added stickles to her wings and glossy accents to both her halo and the star on her necklace. She has been cut out and mounted her on 3D pop dots. 

 My ribbon is from one my favourite Raspberry Ribbon kits - full of wonderful browns and oranges. The beautiful orange pom-pom ribbon in the kit was quickly claimed by a 4yr old who insists it was meant for her!! hmmmm....

I complemented the colour combo with co-ordinating flowers, all of which are from Wild Orchid Crafts, and finished off with some black gems. 

I am also entering into the following challenges:

Your Next Stamp - Cut it out and Pop it Up

Papertake Weekly - Say it with Flowers

Thanks for stopping by :)

Spaghetti Face & A Football Star

Just a quick post as I'm fighting a flu today and have zero energy. I made both of these layouts last week using BG Ambrosia which is fast becoming a favourite for me :)

Now I'm off to do a quick blog hop and then bury my head in a Lemsip and hope the meds kick in quickly.

A Gorjuss Day

As I said... it was a Gorjuss day and I couldn't resist playing with the new kit. Of course then I couldn't decide which stamp I wanted to use.. so I ended up closing my eyes and picking 4 randomly, LOL. I still haven't decided if she's a blonde, brunette or jet black!

Basic Grey Challenge #33 - Colour Combo

"For this weeks challenge we would like you to use this colour combo :)

Now you may be asking what does the +1 mean, well this means that you can choose the third colour for your creation :), sounds like fun doesn't it :), now don't forget that you must also use at least 1 item from basicgrey somewhere on your creation, so have fun and we can wait to see your wonderful creations and what third colour you have chosen :)"

My third colour is Orange. I used BG Ambrosia which were just perfect for this challenge. There were so many fabulous papers to choose from in this range.
