What a Donkey

I don't know what it is about Donkey’s but I just can’t help myself.

This is Precious and Bridie from Digital Delights stamp set Donkeying Around

Precious is simply delightful with her big bow, the teardrop pearl charm is from Wholeport and can be found here

Both are coloured with Copic markers and chalk pencils.

Something Old Something New – Grad Cap Box

This is something Old Something New that the Design Team for Creations by AR are doing each week, every week one of us will share something newly made from one of the older templates in the Creations by AR shop.

I decided to showcase the Grad Cap Box this week as I know many of you are preparing for the Graduation season and this could get many of you a head start.

Just think that little scroll could be a special gift like a rolled up Money or a show ticket, just to say how proud you are and well done.

I stamped the cap top in black ink and found a beaded tassel in my local haberdashery store.

Baby Fairy Ladybug and Free Card Template

I know many of you will be packing your children off to university this year and it will be hard to let go of the apron strings, not only for you but also for them to leave home for the first time.
When I saw Baby Fairy Ladybug from Mo’s Digital Pencil I thought it would be fun to make a Ladybird card and then once I got the idea I soon realised it was like a Mother keeping her young safe, well that's what us Mum’s do best yes?

I made my own Ladybird template for the silhouette, it has a stand which attaches at the back and the wings are separate, I added a brad so that they would open and close for posting.
I coloured the gorgeous Baby Fairy Ladybug with Copic Markers.

Born to be Wild

Sometimes you just have to get down and damned dirty and let the creativity just flow ha ha!

It’s ages since I got my paints out and I had this one figured in my head as soon as I saw the image. I wanted it to be simplistic but arty, I’m not sure if I managed it but I think I like it all the same.

Born to be Wild by Just Inklined

I dusted of my Viva paints and splattered and smudged a black card,

I used Copic markers and chalk pencils to colour the image and matted and layered onto raspberry and black card.
