Lil Coffee Bean Bestie

Time for a new Challenge over at The Paper Funday Blog.

As we are every month, our theme is Anything Goes, and our twist this month if you want to play along with is Love is in the Air.

This month we are sponsored by My Besties and Hetty Clare Art.

I am using an image by My Besties called Lil Coffee Bean Bestie - Doll 16

I coloured the image in with a new set of pencils I bought - it's nice to mix it up a bit.

I decided to print the image larger than I normal would so I could adhere it on the front of my crafting planner.

How sweet! and a perfect addition to my planner cover.

This is my last posting from the team as I have decided to step down to take some time out to just be. Like a lot of people, with the events over the last year, both with the pandemic and also in my life, I am needing a break to recharge, evaluate and decide how I move forward. 

I have enjoyed my 6 months on the team and hope I have inspired at least one of you along the way.

Hope you find time to join in our Challenge.

Until next time, keep chasing white unicorns!

Journey Through a Book

A New Year, and let's hope it is a better one for us all!

With that in mind, it's time for a new Challenge over at The Paper Funday Blog and this year we have TWO sponsors per month!

As we are every month, our theme is Anything Goes, and our twist this month if you want to play along with is to Use the colour Blue.

This month we are sponsored by Star Stampz and Karamfila.

I am using an image by Star Stampz called Journey Through a Book.

When I saw this image I was thinking of how many books may have been read during Isolation 2020!

I added her to my planner bills keeper divider.

I coloured her thought bubble with my Born Makers and her and her books with my copic markers.

I die cut a background using a new die from Uniquely Creative that I got in my Mystery Advent box.

The Isolation tab is from one of the Cut-a-parts by Uniquely Creative as well.

 A bit of washi tape to cover the tab marks and adhered onto my divider.

Super sweet!

This actually the back side of my divider, here's the front.....I used some of last years monthly dividers and trimmed the sides, then glued the ends for my pocket and added a tab - my own custom divider.

Hope you find time to join in our Challenge.

I got to use the image Reindeer Ellie with Ornament.

Seriously, how cute is this girl with her kitty!

I coloured Ellie and her kitten with my copic markers and used one of my tag dies to cut out.

I used my white gel pen for a few highlights. 

I decided to pop two die cuts I cut from red glitter paper to add to the sentiment which is from one of my Jaded Blossom sets.

Added some enamel dots to offset it a bit and adhered to card base.

As we are every month, our theme is Anything Goes, and our twist this month if you want to play along with it, is Halloween.

This month we are sponsored by Hetty Clare.

I got to use the image called Marnie.

Coloured her with my copic markers and fussy cut.

I used my white gel pen for the dots on her dress and a few highlights. 

I used a Tim Holtz die from a set of 4 (sorry don't know the name as I didn't keep the packaging) to create a background on my black card mat. I then distressed the edges and well yes, got a bit carried away on some added dots!

My sentiment is stamped with white craft ink and from the stamp set Wicked Strong Coffee by Jaded Blossom.

I then adhered my card mat onto my base and then Marine onto the card mat with some foam dots.

So did you notice the new Badge on the sidebar of my blog? 

Yes, I am now on the Design Team over at The Paper Funday Challenges ..... 

so excited to be joining the lovely talented ladies there.

Ok, so are you ready to be inspired?

This month as is every month, the project is Anything Goes, an optional Twist if you are game...for this month it is Fall / Autumn.

This month's Sponsor is: AMB Illustrations and I'm using Woodland Critters.

Super cute!

First one I used one of the wreaths and flipped it to face the other way, and then added the owl in there sizing to fit. Second one I used the assembled image as was and just resized to fit my label.

I used Jaded Blossom's Coffee Slider Die (absolutely love this die!) along with stamps from their  Wicked Strong Coffee and Coffee Break sets.

I heat embossed the sentiments using Espresso Embossing Powder from Stampin Up.

My background papers are from Vectoria Design's Sweet Autumn Collection.

I hope you find time to join in with us this month.

Until next time, keep chasing white unicorns!
