Glitter N Sparkle - Week 189 - Anything Goes week - The Stamping Boutique Sponsor

Wow, another week  is almost over and this weeks Glitter N Sparkle Challenge is one of our most popular themes and is 

Anything Goes week

One of this weeks sponsors is the fabulous The Stamping Boutique and I was very lucky to get to choose from their amazing selection of digi's

I chose:

Audrey the Equestrian

I thought it was such a  fun image to work with and would work really well on a larger card size.

Here is what I came up with

I have coloured this image in using Promarkers:

Horse: Cinnamon & Burnt Sienna

Tail & Mane: Sandstone & Praline

Saddle & Bridal : Henna

Blanket: Grey Green

Skin : Blush, Saffron & Pastel Pink

Hair: Burnt Sienna

Jumps: Lipstick Red

Rider's t-shirt : Cardinal Red

Grass: Pear Green & Marsh Green

I made a large 8" x 8" card blank from a sheet of A3 card stock, next I used a Stampin Up Stamp set which included the apple and used memento ink to stamp the apple border on the card blank. I also stamped and extra 2 on a scrap piece of card to use as embellishments.

I have matted and layered the image with coordinating papers and card stock colours.

The final pieces were to add the apples and then the sentiment which is a Woodware Crafts Stamp set called Make a Wish.

I love these fun cartoon like digital images, if you would like to win some of these great images or soem from our other sponsors then pop over to Glitter N Sparkle Challenge Blog and add your entry using the linky.

Have a great Sunday

Glitter N Sparkle Challenge Week - Anything Goes - The Stamping Boutique Image - Carousel.

Good Morning and welcome to my blog this week. It's been a funny old week with Christmas and New Year and it's nice to get back to work and designing some new cards.

This weeks Glitter N Sparkle Challenge is all about 'Anything Goes' and I was lucky enough to be given a choice from the amazing The Stamping Boutique which with their brilliant selection of digi's it was hard work picking something. I fancied something a bit different and the Carousel image caught my eye (Carousel Image) I printed it quite big so that I could make a nice 8"x 8" sized card.

Here is my card below in all it's glory.

I have been trying out my Copic markers this time rather than Promarkers as I have been on a couple of lessons on how to improve my techniques with Kit & Clowder, still playing around but very happy with the overall appearance so far.

Colours Used are:

YR02, YR15, YR20 & YR21 - Mane & Tail

BG01, BG09, BG72 - Ribbons

BV00, BV08, V09 - Saddle

E33,  E29, E25  - Horse

R29 Pole, Hoofs & Lace.

The rest of the card is made up using a A3 White card sheet cut to size, Kanban Crafts Fresh Autumn Basics paper pad ( Orange zigzags), Red Polka distressed paper from a pad by Recollections which I purchased from TKMaxx, Off cuts of Yellow polka dot paper die cut & punched from accents, lilac buttons which I added orange ribbon and tied for effect. Finally to add to the funfair aspect of the card I made my own Admit one ticket .

I love the card and it's full of bright colour and fun.
