Cards

It’s time for another challenge at Inkspirational and this week it’s a Photo Challenge.

Our sponsor for this month is Milk ‘n’ Coffee Digital Designs.

One of the images we were provided was a gorgeous little girl in a boat so it fit this Photo Challenge beautifully.

Here’s what I created.

I printed the image onto X-Press It Blending card and coloured with Copic Markers and Stampin’ Up! ink as follows:

Skin – E00, E000, E0000, R20
Hair – E55, E31, E30
Boat – YR24, YR23, YR21, YR20, YR0000
Dress & Flowers – R89, R85, R83, R81, R0000
Butterflies – B95, B93, B91, B0000
Sea – Stampin’ Up Baja Breeze inkpad and sponge dauber.

It’s a very clean and simple card I’ve created to focus on the image.

Supplies: (All SU unless otherwise specified)
Stamps: Teeny Tiny Sentiments, Charlotte at Paper Ship (Milk ‘n’ Coffee Digital Designs)

Inkspirational EOTWE #23

I’m back today to share my Inkspirational Challenge card for this weeks Colour Challenge.

Here’s the colour challenge again.

Now when I first saw these colours I wasn’t sure what I was going to do. However, we were provided some gorgeous designs by this month’s sponsor Milk ‘n’ Coffee Digital Designs so I chose which one to use and went to work.

This is what I came up with.

I’ve printed my image onto X-Press It Blending Card and then coloured with Copic Markers.

The colour combination I chose was Melon Mambo (for the Melon), Pumpkin Pie (for the Orange) and Summer Starfruit (for the Starfruit).

The copic markers I have used are:
Skin: E00, E000, E0000, R20
Hair, Wand & Stars: Y26, Y23, Y21, Y0000
Dress & Hat: YR14, YR12, YR00, YR0000, RV14, RV13, RV11, RV10, RV0000
Wings: C1, C00

I’ve also added some Dazzling Details to the wings, wand & stars for some added sparkle and added some Rhinestones the front of the card.

Here’s a close up.

You may just see a little sparkle on the wand and wing.

I’ve also decorated the inside of the card.

I was really happy how this turned out as when I first started I wasn’t too sure how this colour combination would work.

Supplies: (All SU unless specified otherwise)
Stamps: Fairy Princess (Milk ‘n’ Coffee Digital Designs), Magical Birthday (LOTV Dreamy Days Circular Sentiments)
Card: Melon Mambo, Pumpkin Pie, Whisper White, In Color 2012-2014 Patterns Stack (Summer Starfruit), X-Press It Blending Card (non-SU)
Ink: Pumpkin Pie
Accessories: Scallop Edge Border Punch, Dazzling Details, Basic Jewels – Rhinestones, Nestabilities Circles & Ovals in small & large (non-SU), Copic Markers

I’d love for you to leave me a comment and let me know what you think of my card.
