Engineering Some Fun

Hello All
Thank you for popping by. Todays creation is ready for the new challenge at Penny's Paper Crafty, where this week we would like to see you 'Use Something From Your Stash'. We have two sponsors this time,  Inky Impressions and Paper Creator.
I was given a Paper Creator image to play with, which came pre-coloured. I have simply decoupaged him up to give some depth, and then used glossy accents to give his glasses a more realistic look - only problem is, I used crackle glaze by mistake, so he looks like he has broken his glasses - dooohhhh. The ruler down the side of the card is some washi tape from my crafty stash, and the sentiment is a retired stamp from Stampin Up.
I would like to enter my card in the following challenges;
Retarte - anything goes
Crafting From The Heart - anything goes
Get Creative - birthday
AAA - anything goes
Brown Sugar - anything goes
and
Creative Corner - happy birthday
I hope you will take time to join in the challenge - all the team would love to see your creations.
Thanks for stopping by, and I'll be back really soon.

Snow Much Fun

Hello All
It's time once again for another new challenge at Cardz For Guyz, and this week we would like to see your 'Fun In The Snow' male orientated creations.
I am not sure of the make of this stamp, but I love this little group of snowmen. I have partially coloured them with ProMarkers, then used glitter for all the snowy bits, messy but great fun. I have added an icicle die cut, which I now wish I'd cut from glitter card, and finished the card with a ribbon and snowflake charm. The sentiment, was an odd rub on from my stash.
I hope it puts you in a festive mood, and inspires you to hop on over to the main blog and check out the other DT creations, or better still join in the fun, as we all love looking at your creations.
I would like to enter my card in the following challenges;
A Snowflakes Promise - anything goes Christmas
Deep Ocean - white plus one other colour
Passion For ProMarkers - Christmas is coming
Always Playing With Paper - Christmas card
OLLCB - let it snow
Use Your Stash - lots of layers

Christmas In Pink

Hello
Well, here I am again, and todays card is for the new challenge over at Cardz For Galz, and this time round we would like to see your girly cards in your 'Favorite Christmas Colour Combo'.

Animal Parade

Hello Again.

I have done a very simple card using the Bugaboo stamp I was given, All I have done is simply printed it, matted it onto a black layer and coloured with ProMarkers, and finally finished it with a sentiment.
