CBC Pens Pencils and Paints

I think this just about qualifies for the challenge on Crafts by Carolyn Forum.

I've been meaning to take part for ages.

I've coloured and used water on the pencils to colour Tilda, and then to glitter the dragonflies, I've used a glaze then sprinkled glitter on it before it set.

Ingredients:
Stamp by Magnolia
Sentiment - Cosmo Cricket
Punches - Fiskars, Xcut and The Punch Bunch
Pencils - Derwent Water Colour
Lace, brad, flowers and handmade paper from stash

Dutch Dare - Green Blue and Brown

Green Blue and Brown.

Ingredients:
Paper - HOTP
Stamps - Rhonna Farrer and Anna Griffin

Made this card this afternoon. I was making a card for the Di Hickman sketches and I cut this polka paper but didn't end up using it. So I made this instead also using a piece of cardstock I had scored wrongly, that why thees the blue strip at the bottom. I love happy mistakes!

Ingredients:
Paper and sticker - Melissa Frances
Punches - Fiskars and Woodware

Buttons galore!

The challenge of using one or more buttons was set on Arty Girlz this week.

Like I needed an excuse to use buttons.

This is a belated birthday card for a friend, but I won't say who in case you are reading this!

I have been trying to take photos of my cards in better lighting, had to venture outside to my front wall to take this.

And yes, I am still obsessed with Magnolia stamps! Also my cards are getting so layered, I'll have needing to send them parcel rate soon!
