Annabel

Hello sugar addicts.  Today I am sharing a card using one of the beautiful Vintage Adorables from our latest release ...

Annabel

 

 

I colored her with copics and colored pencils.  I don't use the color green very often but I thought it would look good with her red hair.  I made a mistake while coloring her bangs so they look a little different than the actual digi image ... I think they call that artistic license, don't they lol?  I added a small flourish and diecut flowers, a bow and some pearls.  I adore all the new Vintage Adorables and I'm not sure yet which is my favorite.  Do you have a favorite?

 

Thank you so much for stopping by.  Have a wonderful day!

 

Hugs, Anita

 

 

A Christmas card

Hello sugar friends, are you making Christmas cards yet? I am, and today I have a Christmas card to show you. The stamp I have used is not a Christmas image, but I think it works anyway:) This beautiful girl is a Sugar Nellie Simply Adorable digi, and her name is Flora. You find her over at Funky Kits.

This time I have used Prisma Colors for coloring, and I have decorated the card with flowers, die cuts and swirls. I have made the frame with punches from Martha Stewart, and the corner swirls are dies from Quick Kutz.

I wish you all a wonderful weekend.

Hug from Marianne.

A little baby ♥

Maria here with some Adorable inspiration.

Those of you who are following The Sugar Bowl know it's not long since I used this sweetie last. 

But I have a few friends who just got babies and I do love coloring up this cutie and that you can make the baby either boy or girl. 

This is one from Sugar Nellie's digi collection and the image is called Bambino 

He is colored with copic and the paper is beautiful Pion that goes so well with the soft colors I wanted on a baby card. And last week I found a box full of treasures in the basement. My husband's old stamp collection. And yes I asked him permission to use them on my cards ;) Gives a little vintage look.

Hope your having a wonderful weekend.
We will be eating cupcakes and enjoying ourself. It's my "baby's" 3 year birthday today and all she wished for was a Cupcake. So I made lots of them for her party Sunday ♥
(But she's also getting a pink tricycle)

Hugs Maria

Goodmorning everyone,
I hope you all had a good Christmas with lots of love, family and warmth :)
Of course we had a lot to eat with a nice glass of wine, but now 2011 is going to end, at our place we have a birthday to celebrate, my father is turning 77 years and New Years day starts with the birthday of my husband :) So ..... I still have a lot of things to do :)

Okay ladies, this is my post for today, the last one this year, but I'll be back next year :)

I made this card with the lovely digi stamp Victoria Standing, you can find all these beautiful Simply Adorables at Funkykits !!
The base has been made with the Go Kreate Die XXL Frame Frilly #2
The paper is from Echo Park - Wintertime
The tree is a big Die from Tim Holtz
Sentiment is from Whimpsy Stamps - Winter Letter Seals
I coloured here with my Copics

Unfortunately we didn't have a winter at all, right now it's a stormy weather, a lot of rain, I prefer snow and frost :)

For now I only can say : A HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!!

Thanks for visiting :)

Love Astrid xxx

Happy Christmas...

Good morning everyone its my turn to show you something sweet and its my last post on here before Christmas...so I wanted to take the chance to wish everyone the very best Christmas ever, I have to admit I have a great soft spot for these Simply Adorable digis, this stunning little beauty is Sybil and I just used the head, I love colouring these beautiful images and used Distress inks to colour her, these lush Christmas papers were a freebie with a magazine, I hardly ever buy magazines but cant resist a bargain or freebie...I edged the papers in some mat gold card stock and cut some of the baubles for decorations...all the details are on my blog as always...have a wonderful day everyone and enjoy your Christmas

Its all about the eyes...

Good morning fellow sugar lovers, Mina here and today is my turn to show you a bit of lovliness from the House of Sugar and boy do I have a little sweetie to show you, this is the stunning Nathan, now how could anyone resist those eyes, hes one of the Adorables...I think he is one of my favourites although its hard to tell as they are all so stunning...doesn't he make a fantastic Christmas card for any little boy in your life...I colour with distress inks and the paper is from Basicgrey, all the details are on my blog as always...a little hint when your colouring the Adorables, there's a white bit in their eyes and when your adding colour if you leave this uncoloured it really makes their eyes sparkle...whatever your up to today have a brilliant one

Thank you so very much for all of your hard work ladies!

Remember as these are digi stamps, these are an instant sugar fix....

These are highly detailed and have extra shading to help with colouring.

Let's play fair girls, the artist although un named still surfs the internet to see how her artwork is recieved and

I does upset her to see people taking advantage of her hard work in selling her artwork on to others}
