A Red Frost

I'm a bit late posting this today but had a call to arms!  

So, this is Frost from Mo's Digital Pencil  but in some unfrosty colours  - we actually had our first frost here yesterday morning!  

I've coloured her with copics  - R89/R39/R29/R27.

The frame is a fabulous Marianne one - LR0627 - and the papers are a great pad  of 12x12  Christmas papers from The Works.

That's me for now - looking forward to a bit of Strictly tonight - and we have Holly and Violet sleeping over, yayyyyhhh!

Hugs, Juliexx

Apple Harvest

This is the Harvest Fairy Apple from Mo's Digital Pencil - it's about eight years since I last coloured this image!

The papers are a mix of Marianne and Recollections, and of course a few other Marianne products, listed below.

Christmas in August

Morning folks - well we have a Christmas in August theme on our new challenge starting today over at Passion for Markers.

I've used one of Mo's Digital Pencil's Christmas Gnomes - this is from the Father Christmas Gnome set - I'm still loving these guys!  I've also used a brand new mask stencil from Marianne Designs for the background.  So simple to create but so effective I think. And you get two types of tree backgrounds on the stencil - these Fir tree outlines and also an oak tree style option.

 I've also added a new lamp  post die and the sentiment from Marianne, details below.

I then splatted some white brusho and Posca pen onto the background for snow.

Hope you will come and play along and get one your Christmas cards on the go!

Valerie in Winter Trio from Mo's Digital Pencil

Well, another Christmas card from me today using a favourite Mo's Digital Image stamp - Valerie and Pup - those ears peeking out of the snow are so cute!!  The stamp is actually one of a set of three called Valerie in Winter  and are fantastic value at $6.75 (so a little less in English pounds!)

I've also coloured her in  my favourite  copic blue combo of B29, B26 and FB2.  The papers are Bo Bunny and the Sentiment and Snowflake are Marianne products, details below.

Sentiment - Happy Holidays - CS1009

Snowflake - LR0393

Still warm here in the Lake District  and it's Nanny Duties day so we may pop to the beach!

Rock Chick or Little Punk!

This is Little Punk  or Rock Chick as I've titled her from Mo's Digital Pencil!  Love her sass!  And you still have a few days left of July to get 15% of Mo's fabulous images, including some hot off the press new ones!!

 I coloured her with my Promarkers then fussy cut her out,  and leaned her against the guitar die cut!   I used a new Marianne Stencil to  create the spotty background which rather suits her grungy feel.

Beautiful Weather

A very good morning blogland.  Despite all the trials and tribulations of 2020, the weather here in the Lake District has been wonderful and looks set to continue for  at least the next couple of weeks.  So my sentiment here is so appropriate.

My card uses Country Boy from Mo's  Digital Pencil - what a sweetie - and I love the expression on the chicken's face! I chose my colour scheme from these fabulous Crate Paper papers - Farmbouse and there are a few Marianne Products too - list  below!  I love the American Barn die set and this fabulous sentiment also from Marianne Designs.

PFP Dies and Punches

Today's card is for our new challenge at Passion for Promarkers with a fab theme chosen by Marie of Dies and Punches - I do love me a die!!

The image is from Mo's Digital Pencil - Carry The Cake - and is just perfect set in the centre of these little cake box segments made with a die from Marianne Designs!

The little rolled flower comes with the box die but the candles are from another Marianne set  and fits perfectly into the rolled flower which I've used as a candle holder. (Details of Marianne goodies below).

The boxes open too and make lovely little gift boxes for lovely little gifts which is exactly what I used my whole 'cake' for.  So easy to make up too - the segment is all cut with one die and then there is just a little folding and sticking!

Cupcake Monster - perfect for your little Monsters!

It's my turn to host this week's challenge at Passion for Promarkers and I've gone with a nice, easy theme of  Children - so can be an image of a child or a card for a child!  I've clearly gone with a card for a child using the Cup Cake Monster from Mo's Digital Pencil.  You can use him with or without the candle holders  too or you could just use them on their own! And you get the sentiment thrown in!

I've used some old papers that have been in my stash for a while, details below.

Little Match Girl - red version

Just realised I hadn't posted this card using Mo's Match Girl, this time coloured in red. I just love her!

The layout is fairly similar to the green version that I posted here before Christmas. This time I've used the free-standing candles from Marianne Designs rather than the candle bridge, details below

Little Match Girl

I just adore this new image from Mo's Digital Pencil -  Match Girl - our family was such a fan of this film  when the children were all younger!

She does come with a fabulous sentiment too but I felt this was is better for the recipient I have in mind!

The  Double Stitched Oval Die (CR1467) is from Marianne Designs, along with the Candle Bridge Die (CR1427).

It's quite icy here today and we've had hailstones too, so it's quite apt today - keep warm peeps!

Hugs, Juliexx
