Tickled Pink Stamps - Use Music Sheet

Good afternoon. This week on Tickled Pink Stamps we would love to see you use some music sheet on your projects.

There is a beautiful music paper in the new My Mind's Eye Lost & Found 'Sunshine' paper pad. This pad has to be one of my favourite pads ever {I say that A LOT!!, lol} because it consists primarily of 2 of my favourite colours - Teal & Mustard. The notebook paper behind my image is from a pack of vintage embellishments I bought from Ebay a while ago - only getting to use them now!! 

I matted and stitched my papers onto a mustard cardstock, added some vintage looking flowers, lace and peals and finished off with a Tim Holtz Adage ticket.

Copics-

Skin -E00, 01, 11, R20

Hair - E23, 25, 27

Mustard - Y21, 26, 28

Colo{u}r Me Creative & Basic Grey Challenges

Good morning! We have a new challenge over on Colo{u}r me Creative - Winged Things with Butterfly Inspiration. You don't necessarily have to use butterflies, you can use any winged thing. 

We are being sponsored by the very lovely Zoe from Make it Crafty and she has kindly given the DT some fabulous images to work with. I have merged 3 images together to create my scene - Notti, Snap Dragon Garden and Whimsical Mushroom. 

 I kept my layout very clean and simple so as not to take away from the image. I've coloured the image using copic markers - way too many to list - and created the sky with Tumbled Glass distress ink and a large brush. 

The papers are from one of my My Mind's Eye's new collections, Lost & Found2 "Breeze" and I've machine stitched them down onto dark blue cardstock from The Paper Mill. The fabric strip and flossed button are from my stash. 

And of course no winged image is complete without some Star Dust Stickles applied to make their wings magic ;)

Basic Grey Challenges 

This week on Basic Grey Challenges we have a free for all .. yep, Anything Goes this week.. as long as you use Basic Grey products somewhere on your creation that is ;) 

I got some new Sassys in the mail this week and have been having lots of fun inking them up! This little beauty is called City Girl.

My papers are scraps of Basic Grey 'Granola' that I had left. They are usually one of my GoTo boy papers but I followed the sketch over on The Sugar Bowl and they have an optional colour theme of Blue, and I thought these papers worked well with the blue image. I used a scrap of white card and my MS Cornice punch to do the border work.

Flowers -  Wild Orchid Crafts

Pearls - Kaisercraft

Ribbon, Button & Heart Pin - Stash.

Challenges -
Cardmadfairy's Digi Days Challenge -  Buttons
Crafty Ann's - Scallops and or fancy borders

Waltzingmouse Stamps August Blog Waltz

Good morning and welcome to Waltzingmouse Stamps August Blog Waltz. Our theme for this month is Tea/Coffee and you can find all the details on how you can join in HERE on Claire's blog.

The Waltzingmouse DT have another agenda for this month's waltz - and that is to bid two of our dear friends/design team colleagues adieu! Sadly we are losing both Bonnie and Carly :(  So we have made our cards in honour of these wonderfully talented ladies who will be sorely missed.

My papers are from the Lost & Found 2 Blush Collection from My Mind's Eye. I am LOVING these papers. I've paper pieced the tea pot {from the Afternoon Tea stamp set}, cut it out using circle Nestabilities and matted it with a scalloped circle. The sentiment is from Say it Loud and I've broken it up onto 2 mini tags, which I tied together with bakers twine. 

I added some white rose trim, pearl topped pins and flat backed pearls to embellish and I decorated the inside of the card to match. 

Thanks so much for dropping by. Happy hopping and have a wonderful day.

Sandie
