Andrea's Happy Place

Sunday, 29 December 2013

Hello, hoping everyone had a Merry Christmas. I had a bit of spare time and decided to colour this big scene I had created using all Make it Crafty images http://www.makeitcrafty.com/

It took a while for me to get started on this but once I got going I didn't want to stop. I have several step by step photo's to show.

Sorry about the quality of the photo's, I hope you enjoyed looking at them anyway :)

Hello, I did a bit of bartering with a very lovely young lady recently and in return for my goods she asked for a card made by me, I was so very nervous colouring this image as I look at this lady as one of the queens of colouring but I gave it my best shot and this is what I came up with

She has received this card and loves it, YAY!!

Here are a few progression pics.

So happy she loved it :)

This cute little girls name is Lizzie and you can find her here

Having a play with this cute Santa Mouse again, He's a Stamp Art Design by Kathryne image,

and can be found at Whimsy Stamps

When I finished colouring this little guy he looked a bit flat

So I thought I try this funny yellow shadow/dotty thing

which I thought to be honest looked a bit silly, but when I put the card together it grew on me and now I'm quite happy with it :)

Thanks for checking out my blog :) feel free to leave a comment.

Hello, today I made a bright and cheery card using Big Chesire Cat http://www.makeitcrafty.com/big-chesire-cat-digi-stamp.html and Whimsical Log http://www.makeitcrafty.com/whimsical-log-digi-stamp.html both from Make it Crafty, I am practicing how to create texture on the images using only the markers. anyway this is what I have come up with for my first try.

I have a few progress pictures too

He was a lot of fun to colour although adding texture is hard.

I will enter this card into
