Happy First birthday Lilly

Last night my hubby's cousin asked if I could do her a last minute card for a one year old.  She had bought her a stool with a bunny and her name on so wondered if I could match the bunny image.  Luckily I had my Nellie Snellen Christmas with Dawn stamp and thought I could get away with it not looking Christmassy, what do you think??

The image is coloured with copic's.  I have added glamour dust to her skirt, a gem to the flower on her headband and clear glitter pen to the bow on the parcel and some of the hanging orrnaments.

The flower is a magnolia doo hickey die and the the swirls are from Marianne Designs with their ribbon flowers.

The papers are Bo Bunny and the cream netting is Champagne netting from Stamp and Create.

Hello and welcome to a new challenge over at Magical Monday's.  For the next two week's we want to see you using our very own Heidi's sketch.  And please don't forget to use a magical image on your project. 

 As Christmas approaches don't forget that the main man Father Christmas and his sidekick Rudolf are magical characters, along with their ever so helpful elves.

This is the sketch that Heidi has designed for us all to work with.

And here is my take on the sketch :

Poor Teddy Bo, I don't think his Christmas job is exactly what he had planned.  This Bo is called Sugar Plum Fairy and he doesn't come with wings I added those in adobe elements.

No only is Bo in a skirt he's also been blinged up to his eyeballs.  Sorry Bo.

Bo is coloured with copic's and I then added glamour dust to his wings, blue ultra fine glitter to his stars and 2 coats of crystal ice stickles.

I used tumbled glass distress ink on the circle and the fancy tag.

The paper's are from the DCWV winter wonder stack.  The gems are fizzy moon and the ribbon is from my stash.

The sentiment was created by my very talented friend Marion.

I would like to enter my card into the following challenges :

Totally Papercrafts - Christmas

Bunny Zoe - easel cards

Bearly-mine - bling

Cards for men - anything goes

Totally Gorjuss - cute and cuddly

Crafts 4 eternity - flags, tickets, tags (I used a fancy tag as a stopper)

Thanks to my great friend Marion I can share with you the word art she made me for this card.

It's raining hearts on Teddy Bo and Bea

The other day I mentioned to my MIL that I wanted to do a shaker card and as soon as she saw Love Showers Teddy Bo digi stamp she said that I should get that and make it into the shaker card.  So as any good daughter-in-law would do I did as I was told and went to the shop and added love showers to my basket.  As I was there another couple of digi's fell in the basket and then I saw that Gayle had released the first lot of their new goodies, a new 8x8" patterned papers book so that fell in too.  Well it would be rude not to wouldn't it??

The papers arrived this morning and I'm regretting only buying 1 lot of papers.  They are gorgeous and printed on the best quality paper I've ever found.  I had planned on using them on this card but just couldn't take my scissor's to them. 

I am entering this card into the following challenge :

Bunny Zoe's - easel cards

Cute card thursday - weddings

Craft us crazy - anything goes

Teddy Bo - love is in the air

Anything goes - celebrations

Bearly mine - bling

Critter sketch - wedding

Stamptacular - fancy folds

Totally gorjuss - going round in circles

I began by colouring in Teddy Bo and Bea in sepia tones to match the gold sequin hearts.  The actual shaker piece is the plastic covering for the red thin super sticky tape.  I them went onto the gallery on Make the cut and found this gorgeous frame.  I needed to fiddle with it a bit to get it the perfect fit for my shaker.I them cut it out of punch tape and covered it in gilding flakes.  Next came the time consuming job of brushing off all the excess flakes, which wasn't easy due to the frame having so many fiddly bits.  I finally cut a shadow mat and glued everything together.  The front is finished with card candi by craftwork cards.

The inside was made to repeat the front, only making smaller frames to fit the wedding sentiment on.  The cream spotty paper is Bo Bunny double dot.

I think that just about covers it all,

Hugs
