Magical crafts #19 - Christmas in July

Good morning all on this wonderful rainy day, I am beginning to feel human again instead of like a limp wet rag :o)

This is my entry for the Magical Crafts #19 Christmas in July challenge. I have never entered this one before, I found the link on the lovely Doreen's blog and as I am making some of my Christmas cards at the moment I thought it would be a good idea to have a go :o)

Sorry folks, I'm waffling again, don't fall asleep on me yet :o)

Onto the card, which is supposed to be why I am here at the moment!

I've used MME Paper which I thought complimented the wonderful digi image which is from Karen's Doodles US  and I am also entering this card for their challenge which just happens to be Christmas in July. These are the first digi images I have bought and I can see why folks are so addicted, although I must remember to print them  a tad smaller next time :o)

Image coloured with copics and sakura stardust pens, with a smidgin of glamour dust for the snow. Nesties weren't big enough so I just cut out the circles to matt the body and head onto.

You can all wake up now :o)

Karen's Doodles - Bling it up

Good morning bloggers, I hope you aren't all melting in this heat PHEW!

This is my entry for Karen's Doodles (US)  Bling it Up .....

..... the bling in this case being pearls, Sakura Stardust pens and Glamour Dust.

The fabulous image is a freebie from Karen and I've coloured it with copics then mounted onto Nestie shapes which I've popped with foam pads. The image is raised with silicone glue. Background is my own and the flower stamp is from Magnolia, sentiment from SU.

If you've not yet seen Karen's fantastic digi stamps then hotfoot it over there and have a look :o)
