Hair Anyone!!


Hair Anyone?

Hey all, just a quick post to show you all my card i made with Saturated Canary hair dresser image. It was perfect for me to give my hair dresser this year. I've been waiting for a image like this as she is so deserving for the magic she uses to keep my hair in line..


This one was coloured with promarkers except for the pink, that's copics. Got out my flowers to add a little depth to the card and there you go...all done. 
Many thanks for dropping by and hope to see you all soon..

Many Thanks!

 
THANK YOU!!
 
Hey all, surprise surprise, I have another Saturated Canary image coloured up.
I made so many cards in the last few months but haven't had the time to post any.
This one went into my stash to sell at my local craft sale.
A super fabulous image for all those caregivers at hospitals who
take such good care of others.
So a shout out to all the nurses, doctors, and all staff who keep
the hospital up and running.
 
Let's have a look
 
 
I used Promarkers for this one but for one exception, which is the brown hair. I just had my brown copics out this day of colouring and used them. It was a bit difficult finding papers to match what I coloured but I think it turned out ok. Very simple design, I wish I had some die cuts that would go with this type of image. I'll have to be on the lookout for something.
Many thanks for dropping by and will see you all soon.

Gift Anyone?

Gift Anyone??
 
Well I have to show you the most adorable image yet from Krista Smith.
I think this is my most favorite one in a long list of images from the wonderful Krista Smith of Saturated Canary..Let's have a look see... 
 
 

I coloured this one up with my usual promarkers but the hair and pink are done in copics...i'm afraid a few of my colours are running out in my promarkers and I have to make time to purchase more..it's just such a mess trying to order from other countries..One day i'll get to it..ha ha
I just added a little ribbon, a couple die cuts and a sentiment and BAM i'm done.

Christmas Card Swap!!

Kit And Clower Christmas Card Swap!!
 
Hey all, welcome back!! The Christmas Season is here and who is ready for it..
Most of my shopping is done, just a couple things left to pick up and baking of course. I'm hoping to start on some of that this weekend. I do find though that the earlier I bake the faster it is eaten and then I have none during the holidays...such is life in my household. HA
 
Well I was lucky enough to be included in Kit and Clowder's Christmas Card Swap and this is what I made to send along with some tags and a little flair from my shop. I sure hope she likes it..
 
Let's have a look at another Saturated Canary Image
 
 
I coloured her up with promarkers and just added a few embellishments to make this a simple designed card. Which is my normal style of course.
 
Now check out what I received from Joanne Bell
 
 
Could this be any cuter. It's hard to tell but it's glittered up real good and she has a couple layers on the penguin. A lot of time and effort went into this one. I just love it and to top it off she also sent me a cute ornament for my tree with some gift tags. I always need those. And did you notice the lovely box envelope she sent along as well. Perfect to preserve all the embellishments on her card..Many thanks Joanne it will hold a place of honour in my craft room..
Thanks all for visiting and I hope to see you all soon.
 
Challenges I will enter with my card are:

Saturated Canary GDT!!

 
Hey all, thanks so much for dropping by. I'm putting my hat into the Saturated Canary GDT. As you know I just love Krista's images and colour them often. Here is Kit that was offered for this very call. You should see all the ways this sweetie has been coloured up. Go take a look at her FB page and you will see how stiff the competition is. There are some amazing talented colourers and card makers in cyber space. Everyone is just so in love with these images and no wonder..
Let's have a look!
 
 

 
 
Both of these images were primarily coloured with promarkers except the brown hair which was done with copics. I did make the blue hair a little dark so I added some white dots to break it up..Funny how a mistake can turn out to be a good thing. Just added some embellishments to both cards, flowers, die cuts, and some 36 shade of flair..I'm just loving working with my paper flowers lately..Now just to figure out how to get them in an envelope..ha ha.
 
Many thanks again for visiting and cross your fingers for me. Check out all the fabulous images at Saturated Canary Store. I just know you will want to have them all..We won't say how many I have..ha ha ha

Happy Birthday MOM!!
 
Hey all, welcome to justwordz. I've made my Mom a birthday card this week. She just loves Fairies so I just had to use one as a image.
This cutie was missing for a long time. I went back to my old old emails and found them. Thank goodness as I recently coloured a new one up and wanted to find them. I think I have something in mind for these sweet images that will go with my fairy doors I'm making for my friends and family. Let's have a look..

I coloured this one with my fabulous Letraset Promarkers and added a few more embellishements than normal, seeing as it's going to my MOM and will be hand delivered. I did add wink of stella to the wing, flower and a touch in the hair to give it a little sparkle.

Sweet Birthday!!

 
 
Sweet Birthday
A Sugar Nellie image
 
Hey all, welcome to another creation that I did today. I went for another stamped image by Sugar Nellie, and as you can tell this is another one of Krista Smiths drawings. I thought I would add another card to the Sugar Bowl DT call to show them I can add a few more embellishments when called for. I tend to stick to the simpler designs for mailing purpose for the most part. But I do love a lovely card on occasion. Lets have a look...
 
 

 
 What do you think? I coloured her up with promarkers and I picked out the colours from the paper for this one. Added a sentiment and some fabulous paper flowers to add some loveliness to this card. The red pearls may be a little much but I wanted a pop of colour. I sure hope you like and will see you all again soon as I have many cards made just need to blog about them..ha ha

Make it Crafty..surfing dad!

 
 
Hello again..I've been rocking the cards lately. Finally had a little time during my holidays to colour up some super fabulous images. What do you think of this one. A freebie for those who subscribe to Make it Crafty. How lucky are we!
I just had to colour him up and can't wait to see the others in this series. I also fell in love with the exercise images they just released. I've got to save up some pennies to get some but I will in time.
 
Surfer Dad
 

 
Again I coloured this one with promarkers and had such fun picking colours. And I know the paper isn't very manly but if he can rock the ironing board and still look cool, I think he can get over the paper choices. I used the sentiment you rock, and embossed the white behind the image with a thank you folder. There are many men out there who do their fair share of the chores so I thought it was a good sentiment to go with. I did try and do a colouring tutorial on this one but for some reason I has so many issues today. I'll have to get one done soon for you all with a Make it Crafty image..they are all just so fabulous. To finish this one off, I added a couple brads, sentiment and did some fussy cutting. Super simple but done..Again thanks for dropping by and leaving the most awesome comments.
 
Challenges I would like to enter are:
 
 

Sugar Bowl DT Submission!!

 
Hey all, I'm here today to show you another fabulous image by Krista Smith. I've coloured this one a few times but still love it. I wanted to try and apply for a DT position for The Sugar Bowl.
This super sweet image can be found at Funky Kits. She comes as a stamp and is on sale at the moment so make sure you go have a look.
 
Bad Hare Day
 

I coloured this one with my promarkers and the bunny was with copics. Can you tell I'm loving butterfly's at the moment. Kept it pretty simple with a few die cuts and a birthday sentiment.
I did a colouring tutorial for her and will have it uploaded by the end of the weekend. You can find my youtube channel HERE. Wish me luck Peeps!!

Look Who's 50

Look who's 50 Redonkadoodle Style...
 
Hey gang, I'm glad you dropped by to have a peek at my new custom order I did for a co-worker. She had a couple of friends who were celebrating their 50th. She wanted a funny one as they like to tease this couple on how much older they are compared to them..maybe a yr or two at most..ha ha 
I had just the images to share. Redonkadoodles has both these amazing images and seeing as all her images come in png file mode, it was as simple as overlapping them to get them close together. Please excuse the quality of the photos, but the camera I was using was returned to the owner who was so gracious to lend it to me. Now I have to count on my small canon power shot..For some reason the pictures never do come out the way I think they should..
Any who...let's have a look see shall we?
 


Super fun couple that should bring a smile to anyone's face. I coloured these lovelies with my promarkers and just added a few diecuts with a sentiment or two to finish it off.
I'm actually going to enter a or two challenge with this one. Yippee!!

A thank you for an Instructor!

A Thank You Card..
Well to have two postings two days in a row is rare for me these days. But I wanted to show off this commission card I created for my hubby. He just finished a course at his work and wanted a super sweet card made up to thank her.
I picked this image from Saturated Canary as I thought it was perfect for the occasion.
Lets look...
 

I used my promarkers for this one and I have to say trying to get info from my husband on hair and eye colour was very challenging..Kinda red does NOT cover it..ha ha.
Anyways I hope I came close using my promarkers and mounted it on the biggest card stock I could find so there would be room for everyone to write something.
I added accents for her glasses so they have a shine to them and just did a few die cut embellishments to finish it..I just love this image and hope to colour her again.
 
I'm going to through my hat in at Saturated Canary Facebook page as they have
a challenge there. Wish me luck...

1st Birthday..super cute

First birthday!!
Oh my, i found this picture while cleaning out my computer. I'm in the red big time with my storage space and have to clean it out asap or I won't be able to make room for any more images... I just don't know how I'm going to do it. This one happened to be missed and i just couldn't not post it. 
It's a super cute image from Saturated Canary, and it was a perfect choice for a little girls first birthday. Let's have a look...


Wow i can't believe I made this card a year ago...It was a hard one to give away..I just loved how it turned out. I used my promarkers and for the pink, copics were used. I added what the customer wanted for the sentiments and just did a couple die cuts to finish it off. The colour combo on this one is super cute and will have to use it again.
Many thanks for dropping by and I hope to see you all again soon..

A little Gardening??


A Little Gardening...
 
Hey all, welcome to my blog. I've just been gardening lately and decided I should do a super cute gardening card. I picked a cute Saturated Canary image I've had for a while.
Let's have a look see...
 
 


I coloured this one with my promarkers and used a variety of colours. Even though I threw together so many colours i think it turned out fabulous. Just gets you in the mood to see the wonderful flowers in bloom this time of year. I added a bit more embellishments this time around. I just had to add some flowers to keep in the theme of the card.
Many thanks for dropping by and hope you come by again..

Baptism...

 
 
Baptism
Well I'm here again to show you a super cute image by Krista Smith that was actually a thank you image but I thought I would make a perfect little girl baptism card.
My granddaughter finally got baptised so I made this card for her
 
Let's have a look...
 
 

 
I coloured this one with promarkers and kept it white as I could. She wore a beautiful white dress and was just pleased as punch to get baptised. It was so funny the priest asked her if she felt different after the water over her head...she smiled a wide as could be and said...YUP!! Everyone there had a chuckle. It was a beautiful day for such an occasion.
Thanks again for dropping by and will see you all again soon..

Chirp Chirp Chirp anyone!!!

Chickens Galour!!
 
Hey gang..long time no see eh?? Just a quick post to show you some cards I made for a secret santa swap. The girl I chose has 4 chickens and I thought I would make her some generic cards she can give away. Unfortunately I did not receive my gift in return. I guess it's a chance i took, this was the first time that I did not get something in return after participating several times over the last few years..This was a craft only swap. I also sent her a handmade scarf, and a beautiful bracelet with crystals..as well as these cards..Let's have a look shall we..
 




I must say it was a challenge to find little chick images as well as how to colour them. All of these were freebies at one time or another. Funny I did receive a thank you for the lovely gift and how much she liked the cards but sadly she did not send through her end...But I always think positive and only hope it got lost in the mail. Not very likely but I can always hope..
Thank you so much for dropping by and hope to see you again soon.
(my house is torn up with reno's and I can't find a thing...)

Sweet Fairy!

Sweet Fairy!!
Hey all, i'm glad to see you. I finally got to colour this fabulous image by Emerald Faeries. Such an adorable image. I do have a few other images from them but for some reason i can't find them.. I've got to stop purchasing images out of my ying yang. I did purchase them when i first started card making and just can't seem to find them on my harddrive. What to do eh...buy new ones..ha ha. Which i did of course with this one. Let's have a look  



This super sweet image was coloured with promarkers and the hair in copics. Super cute and i just embellished with a couple die cuts to finish this one off. Super simple as you know but cute none the less. If you would like to see how i coloured this one up you can http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sbjB0S2TsAM&feature=c4-overview&list=UU8mx8wyzD40ajYR6wKn5Yvg

Redonkadoodles Day!!

 
Hey all, finally I got back to colouring. I haven't coloured anything since before Christmas. I lost my mojo for sure. Getting ready for Christmas craft sales, and our family Christmas is so jam packed with projects that I usually have to take a little break. So I think I'm ready to get back into the swing of things. I have a few stamps I just have to colour and want to get them done to show you all.
But lets look at what I got done last night...at 1am of course ha ha
 
 


 
I coloured this one with my promarkers of course. I did have a little trouble with the hair but I think it turned out ok... I added some brads and a little sentiment to finish it off. Funny how the green brad looks very different from the colours in my image but in real life it matches I swear...Very simple as usual but that's how I roll..
Thanks so much for dropping by and will see you all soon..
