Sitting Pretty

Hi all,

Lyndsey here today to show you a card I made for the new Forever Friends Challenge. Pink Gem is sponsering the challenge this fortnight and us girls were asked if we wanted to guest design, a few of us said yes and here is my creation. The challenge theme is Ribbon & or Lace - so nice and easy!!

I have used the gorgeous Faye with Flowers, and used the B&W image and coloured her with my promarkers. The image also comes as a pre-coloured design, so great if you need to make a card in a hurry.

Promarkers used to colour the image are

Skin - Coral, Sunkissed Pink, Oatmeal & Blush

Hair - Walnut, Cinnamon, Tan & Satin

Clothes - China Blue, Cornflower, Pastel Blue & Powder Blue

Flowers - Raw Siena, Mustard & Buttercup (centre) - Almond & Satin (petals)  

Here is the sketch if you fancy having a play yourself

Thank you for dropping by the inspiration blog today

Warm Winter Wishes

Hi all,

Its Lyndsey here and  I am very excited to be posting my first card to the Gems of Inspiration Blog. My for debut Pink Gem Showcase I have chosen to use the very adorable Winter Phoebe which is available in either Jpeg or Png format - coloured & just line image. I have also used the sweet little Christmas Circle Sentiments 1 set.

I coloured Phoebe with my promakers and teamed her with some lovely foiled papers. She was Die Cut out using the following Spellbinders Dies - Rectangles Classic Large & Fleur dis Lis Rectangles, which are both available in store and at such brilliant prices too. The card has been finished off with a bit of lace, organza ribbon and christmas flower.

The promakers I used to colour the image are :-

Skin - Burnt Orange, Coral, Sunkissed Pink, Oatmeal & Blush

Hair - Walnut, Cinnammon, Tan & Satin

Coat, Hat & Boots - Azure, Colbalt Blue, Sky Blue & Artic Blue

Trim - Island Lagoon, Soft Green & Pastel Green
