Glinda the good witch - Kraftin Kimmie, Stamp & create spotlight

I have decided to show you Glinda the Good Witch from Kraftin Kimmie today. She has been coloured in copics and mounted onto some old basic grey porcelain papers which are no longer available. I have added onto the card a wilton doily, pink silk ribbon and a rainbow charm. The bow was made using the bow easy. The We must be over the rainbow sentiment is from the Dorothy Stamp also by Kraftin Kimmie. I have used the magnoila bunting die to create the pennants and added stickles for some extra sparkle.

I hope you like it.

PTW Sketch 67

Jean Luc playing with Claude - Sarah Kay

This was the card I made for Henry's 5th Birthday, I forgot to photo it before I gave it to him hence why it is photographed on the mantlepiece!

It is an old Sarah Kay image coloured in copics, but I think it looks just like H pleaying with my Dad's puppy! The papers are new in to Stamp and Create called MME Nostalgia.

I have matched it up with another PTW sketch - these are so fab when you have alot of cards to make at once, this is number #67.

Lola Lollipop - Kraftin Kimmie

Hello, happy saturday to you all.

This is one of my latest stamps, which I have used for the birthday card of one of my youngest sons friend.

The papers are a very old basic grey pad called Porcelain which I have odd sheets of left out of the three pads I had originally of it.  I have matched it up with kaisercraft pearls from Stamp and Create, the brads are an old purchase fromhobby house and the flowers are a very old selection from Prima (yes I am slowly trying to use up all of my stash as monies are tight). The lace I think was a ribbon girls purchase.

I have used PTW sketch #68. (I must admit I love using old sketches of Dawny P's to help get the mojo going after such a crafting absence)

Image is a little bit of country got from Stamp and Create. Paper is kaisercraft vintage timeless, the flowers are woc, pearls are a rak of Heather, the lace is a scrap, the ribbon is again woc, and the sparkles on the flowers are from Stamp and Create.
