Jump

Good morning, an extra post this week as I'm hanging around keeping the dog out of mischief as Al's man shed is being erected today.
Yesterday was the first day of CASology's latest challenge. I love looking to see what the DT have come up with to go with the week's cue card. This week's is -


Well that could mean lot's of things, I'm amazed by the way peoples minds work and their DT came up with lots of different takes on the word. This is mine:-


I thought of this little guy when I read the word jump, he's from a free Pink Petticoat set from a while back. I used the little fish in the same set for a card a month ago. It's not as original as some of the projects but I like him. I chose the sentiment from the same set, pretty broad in it's interpretation.

I cut a small square from a scrap which I had coloured using Peeled Paint, Squeezed Lemonade, Tumbled Glass and Broken China Distress Ink Pads. The little frog was coloured with Copics, 
YG 11, 13, 17, 61, 63, 67, 91, 95.
The square was stuck to an A6 white card with the froggy sitting slightly off the bottom.

I shall of course enter it in the following challenges-
By the way there's plenty of time to enter our CAS challenge over at Cardz4Guyz. They are also looking to increase the DT so if you feel like joining us just put DT after your entry. 

All the best, come back soon.

Bubbles

Afternoon all. 
Looking a bit miserable outside, already need the lights on and its only just after 2.
Been a little busy in the old craft room yesterday working on my designs for Cards 4 Guys (starts Tuesday 14th January) DT,  as well as some for a new challenge blog I have been asked to be on the DT of , Fantasy Stampers. I did apply around Christmas but didn't hear anything until yesterday. Their first challenge -Your favourite Stamp- is still ongoing, so nip over and have a look and perhaps take part. Anyway watch this space as I will be posting my designs as soon as all the challenges go live.

Now I can post this little project.


This is a bit of fun using a free Pink Petticoat stamp I found in my stash. Not sure how long I've had it but it amused me and fit the brief on a couple of CAS challenges. The heart bubbles were stamped 3 times to get a longer flow of bubbles. The fish were coloured with Copics as follows:-

Hearts- R22, 27,29
Large fish - YR12,15,16,07, Y11,15,17
Small fish - Y11,15,17,00,02,06 C5,7,10

I will enter it in the following challenges:-
Less is More- Hearts (One Layer)
CASology- Bubbles

Well I hope it brought a smile to your face, see you soon and thanks for popping over.
