colour throwdown 81


This card is a different size as I would normally do. I used the lace backgroung stamp from hero arts and colour it with copic markers. Then place it under chocolate chipcardstock then placed it onto old olive and finished it off with ribbon from American Crafts. Here are the colours http://colorthrowdown.blogspot.com/if anyone wants to have a play. LOve the colours this week.

colour throwdown 80







My girls were mucking around while I was taking the phot so they wanted to join in. This stamp is from Hero arts. I embossed it with white embossing powder then coloured it using stampin up markers. The copic markers just didn't cut it with the emcossing. Wasn't sure how to add the burgundy so I put it underneath and I think it set it off nicely. You can try the colour throwdown for yourself it is heaps of fun.

colour throwdown


This weeks colours were lovely at this weeks colour throwdown would have never thought to use this combination. It has a spring feel even though it is very hot here is Australia at the moment. I did use my new best friend the copics to colour in the butterfly. This is a window type card hope the photos pick that up.

Okay it is raining here and I wanted to post this so sorry about the photo. This is for my niece who is turning 6 soon. I love these colours we had to use
Kraft, Soft sky and pink pirouette.

I love this girl stamp from hero Arts. I colour her with copic markers and used foam tape. I then cut the circles out with my nestabilities and the ribbon is from American Crafts. Have a good day everyone.

I embossed the so saffron with the cuttle bug. Because they are spring colours decided to go with butterflies. The stamp set is garden whimsy. I think I might give this card is my 10year old daughter. Back to school tomorow after seven weeks off.

Got my order from two peas this week. Everything is a little cheaper over in America compared to Australia however the postage is a bit of a killer. Anyway I had to get the wooden hero arts stamps with the girls on it. They are so cute expect to see them in every challenge for a few weeks I love them. I colour the girl in with a blender pen and ink all from stampin up. Took a little practise happy with the outcome I still need to play a liitle more though. Waiting on a order for copic markers from Japan can't wait. Tried to match the colours best I could. The flower is also from Hero arts. Okay have to go was at the beach yesterday and now we are off to movie world (theme park:)
