Sorry about all the photos, I just wanted you to see it from all angles with all the details. 

 

 

The Image was coloured using my Faber-Castel Colouring Pencils.

All Cut Out Elements were done on my Cameo Silhouette.

The paper is from a BoBunny Halloween Paper pad.

I finished the card with some flat back bubbles.

I am soooooo late with this post. The Challenge started on the 15th of February......

The theme of this challenge is

'TIP OF THE HAT'

Nice and easy theme.....Just means that what ever you make, must include a hat somewhere. This can be the actual make, on the image, as an embellishment or how ever else you can include a hat in your entry!!

 

 

I loved this theme so much, I made two entries..... Here are the images I used:

 

'Lucy Loo' Mustache

https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/176800061/digital-stamp-lucy-loo-mustache-300dpi?ref=shop_home_active_13

 

 

'Lucy Loo' Strawberry Shortcake Lolita

https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/178610868/digital-stamp-lucy-loo-strawberry?ref=shop_home_active_9

 

 

How brilliant are both these images, and both so different!!!!

 

So, to the bit you are all here for, what I made with them:

 

Mustache -

 

 I cut the hat and frame wit my Silhouette Cameo.

The image is coloured with Faber-Castell colouring pencils.

 

I wanted to make my actual project a hat, but I am not sure it has turned out how I imagined it...... I like it though, as its something different!

 

 

Strawberry Shortcake Lolita -

 

 

 The card base, sentiment and layers were cut on my Silhouette Cameo.

The image was coloured using Faber-Castell Colouring Pencils.

The faux stitching was added by using a white Rangers pen.

 

I would like to enter the above makes into the following challenges -

Left Of Centre - Challenge #65

Welcome back Lovely Followers, Fellow Bloggers and Friends...... I hope you are all well and looking after yourself in the awful weather we are having.

I hate this kind of weather. One minute it is snowing, next it is raining and then it is just cold, but you don't know that until you step outside to go out, and it is then too late to change your clothes to something more suitable to stop parts of your body dropping off!!!

Lelli-Bot Crafts - New Kit Samples

Hello fellow Crafters, Friends, Bloggers and anyone else that has popped in for a little visit.

 

As you know, I am part of the Lelli-Bot Crafts Design Team.

 

Today that had their first 2015 show on Create and Craft. The Design Team were given 3 new kits to work with:

 

Gothic Lace

 

Painted Posies

 

Suited Seduction

 

As you can see, they are all very different and all have their place for lots of different styles of crafting.

 

Since before Christmas, I have been making samples from these three kits. I have enjoyed making them, however they do take a long time to make as I like to do my best to show off the products and make them special for the Shows.

 

I had very few of my samples shown in todays show, so rather than have them unseen, I thought I would blog them so people could see them.

 

Here are my makes with the above kits......

 

Gothic Lace

 

 

 



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Painted Posies

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Suited Seduction

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I hope you like the samples I have made, I am very proud of them.

 

Those who watched the Lelli-Bot Crafts show today, and that you all like the kits and enjoy using them.

 

 

Many thanks for visiting and leaving such wonderful comments, all comments and visits are returned.
