This one shows the her tight, shoes and some of her wings better

More Digi inspiration

Hi Jac here with a little more inspiration from the Digi DT.

Today I have made a simple bookmark using the wonderful Katniss from the Hunger Games which is available at the Mad For Markers Store.  When I say simple all I did was print the image onto a long narrow scrap of card I had, coloured her in with my copics and then folded the card at the head end, cut around leaving a small border and being sure not to cut completely across the fold! Then I added a couple of strips of s/a magnet and hey presto 1 bookmark.  So Katniss is now poking her head out of Ria's latest book only she doesn't know about it yet as she is at school so will have to find out what she thinks tomorrow as I'm on the late shift tonight!

Jac

Copics used are R00, 11, B93, 95, 97, YG63, G94, E33, 35, W3, 5, 7, and YR31

Come back next week for Digi inspiration

My Big Boy!

My baby turns 3 on Monday and I have to say this week he has grown up so much!

He has just decided he is a big boy now and no longer wears nappies. Now we have tried a few times and it never goes well, but he seems to have gotten it now and we have only had a couple of accidents. It seems that sometimes they just do it when their ready, who knew...hehe! 

He has also this week come off his training wheels. I went out on Saturday and came home to find that Daddy had taken his traning wheels off and he is now riding his bike like a big boy. OMGosh I couldn't believe it, where has my little boy gone!

We are having a big party for him on Saturday, with all of his little friends, we have even gotten him a big Jumping Castle, he is sooooo excited! Although I have spent most of today cooking in preperation for it and I will spend ALL day tomorrow cooking and baking. He wants a lady bird cake, so thats what we are doing, although we are going to make it a green lady bird...hehe!

Anyway, here is his card that I have made, now the picture isn't the best as I have just taken it and it is dark now!

Copic Colors Used:

Hair - E08, YR07, YR14, YR21

Skin - E11, E01, E00

Tshirt - YG67, YG63, YG61

Jeans - BG78, BG75, BG72

Beanie - E44, E43, E42, E41

My Card has been colored using Copic Sketch Markers and Xpress It Blending card, all of which are available from the Mad For Markers Store.

some LaLa creations

I am just popping on to share some creations I have made with some of the latest LaLa Land stamps... These new stamps are going to be for sale at our project class with Irina on the 16th June (if you desperately need some before then please send me an email).

 

I am sorry I have not recorded the Copics used... I always could take a good guess as I coloured them whilst in Adelaide last week and I had limited markers with me .. I can tell you however that my new favourite PINKS are the RV50s.... so pretty!!! :) And I can also tell you that the middle card has RED in the her hair for extra contrast with the brown... Thanks for stopping by! I'm off to clean up the place again! Really looking forward to moving to our new house in a few weeks and having a room JUST for M4M/ craft!!! :D

Tiny Baker Tia scrapbooking Page

Hi all, hope you are all well, where is the year going!!!  Today for my inspiration I have had another go at a scrap booking page, this is the day before Rosanna's 11th Birthday (she is now 14, way behind lol), with her Aunty Jen and her granny (Jen's and Edward's Mum) when they were here on holiday. As you can image it was a very special cake.

I made this page using Tiny Baker Tia, I just loove her she is so cute and from Some Odd Girl and is available from the M4M Store here. She comes with two sentiments I have used 'just so sweet'.

A closer look at the spicas, special effects, dazzling diamonds glimmer mist, I also made a frame of SU blue glitter around the photo, for extra sparkle!
