Friday Sketchers #46

Here's my take on Friday Sketchers #46 sketch

I've used the Holly in London download from Holly and Madison's World Tour collection available from Charmed  and coloured her in using Prismacolour pencils.

Scrummy Stash Cafe and Friday Sketchers

Scrummy Stash Cafe challenged us to use our tags and Friday Sketchers challenged us to do something using their sketch. So, I flipped the sketch over and here's my offer that combines both challenges

Friday Sketchers and Madison

I've used the current sketch on the Friday Sketchers Blog along with a Madison download from the Holly & Madison collection to make this card. Thanks to a few hints and tips by Lou in the Let's Get Crafting Watercolour magazine, I've been able to get a skintone which I've found hard to master before. Thanks for that Lou.

A Little Crafting

Hi everyone. I managed a little crafting yesterday. Here's what I can show you for now.

First, a card which combines a challenge and a competition:

Dottie's World challenge this week is to use one of the downloads and flowers.
Friday Sketchers competition was to follow the sketch

Over on 3C's, Tee set the members' challenge which was to use the sketch she chose and her added extras to complete a LO, Card and ATC. For the ATC she told us to use whatever theme and extras we wished so here's mine. I have yet to do the LO and Card, but have just over 2 weeks to finish them.

Thanks for looking.

Take care
Love and hugs

Farming

Done for the challenge on Friday Sketchers, here's my farming card

The background is done by mixing acrylic paints and there's stamping in red and black inks.

Friday Sketchers Card Challenge

I came across another card challenge blog this week - Friday Sketchers. The latest challenge on there is to make a card following the sketch provided.

My Card

Close up of Punk George

I water-coloured George (from the Rock & Roll Collection and available from Charmed) using my brush markers before sticking him onto the card with foam pads and adding doodled musical notes and some ribbon. I've distressed the edges of the card plus George's guitar. Well, he is a hard rocking punk after all.

It's Friday!!!

It's Friday which means I'm off to see

stage show at Birmingham tonight. Tickets have been booked for 48 weeks and counting. Have you guessed I'm looking forward to it?

Had my hair cut and coloured on Wednesday by my hairdresser sister. The style's a bit different (choppy I think you'd call it) and the colour's not as dramatic as we thought it would be, but I like it. Haven't got an updated piccie yet.

Have been doing a little crafting this week. Had a play around with a couple of new card templates - K-Card and Spring Card. Need to perfect the K-Card, but I love the look of them both. Have also made another curvy card ready to give my sister for Christmas. She said she's expecting different and amazing and until Lou released this, I was getting worried. Once again, I need to get my camera out in daylight. I've altered the front of Lucy's Christening card and will post that on here too.

I have a busy week-end as I'm out tonight. Leaving at midday as we're meeting my little sis who's in Birmingham studying. Going to McD's with her to have tea. Saturday evening I'm going to Mum's to stay the night. Sunday morning Mum and I are off to church for Lucy's Christening. Don't know if they're doing lunch afterwards, but if not we're going to find somewhere to eat. Next Thursday I get to go Christmas shopping. No, not for my bits, but to drive Mum and do her carrying. I guess if I see anything I'll pick it up. Still waiting for David to re-schedule his day off so we can go and do ours, as he had to work this Thursday instead of being off.

That's my offerings for now. Talk to you all tomorrow. Get ready to hear all about
