Pure Angel

Good morning sugar fans! 

-- It's Janine here with my Wednesday post --

  I've been wanting to colour this little sweetie in for ages - she's called 'Pure Angel' by Diane Duda. Now I know she's not available in the Funkykits store (sorry!) but there's loads of other Diane Duda stamps and digital stamps for sale. Just go to Funkykits (the home of Sugar Nellie) using the link.

  

To make my card I matted it with 2 patterned papers edged with distressing ink. I stamped the angel onto watercolour card, then using Inktense pencils I coloured her in; to colour the background I used 2 different distressing inks. I then die cut the finished image and matted and layered it onto coloured card stock. To finish off I used glitter on her wings and Wink of Stella on her dress, then added a die cut flower and a few pearls.

For more details of everything I used please check out my blog here.

 

Thank you for dropping by, and don't forget to call by tomorrow to see more sweet inspiration from our fab Design Team.

Don't forget about our Sugar Nellie and  Sugar Bowl Design Team Call Out - there's still time to apply.

 

 Hugs

Little Angel...

Good morning sugar fans, Fi here with your Wednesday posting!

Hope you are well!

Now I am sharing this card with you, my lovely friend asked me to make a Thinking of You card for one of her friends whos daughter sadly passed away. I thought I would use this lovely Diane Duda stamp which I think is just so perfect, sadly it's not available but I needed to share it but there are still lots of other Diane Duda stamps available from Funky Kits.

I have used digi papers from The Sweet Shoppe and layered them onto bazzill card.....I added some stitching to each of the layers....yes no doodles!!  The cloud and love heart also came with the digi pack...aren't they perfect?

The flowers are a mix of rolled flowers from die-namics and a couple of flowers which I had bought and I added a couple of teeny weeny butterflies too.

Pop back tomorrow for some more inspiration.

Believe-

Hello and good day to you, Sugar lovers!
how was your easter break, peaceful I hope .?
I am returning to a PC near you to share a cheery card featuring an adorable Diane Duda image... "Believe" 

I opted for some warm spring or indeed Easter papers.. and coloured her up to match. you know, you can pick her up for an unbelievable price at Funkykits too .... along with lots of other old favourites, and new ones too! 
I decided on a simple layout, all matted onto kraft cardstock,with lots of distressing thrown in for good measure .Using a simple sentiment and dotting on a few small pearls, it really was a quick make.
I do hope I have given you a little inspiration to dig out your older stamps , and some them some love .
have a fabulously crafty day... and pop back tomorrow for a little more sweetness , won't you?
Hugs Lis

I Believe I see spots...

Good morning everyone, I hope your having a good week...before I tell you about my card for today I want to answer a question I got about the scissors I use and showed on here last week, Edna asked about what size and where to get the tiny curved scissors I use, the size is set as they are Pergamano's own make and are used for tiny cutting on pergamano (I have never done the method though), I would stick with their own make as they are good quality and Ebay is always a good source for them, I bought mine from a local craft store close to home, I hope that helps Edna...right now onto my card for today which is using one of my all time favourite versatile stamps from Diane Duda, shes called Believe, I think one of the reason I like this stamp is that she can be used for any occasion at all...this time I used her for a monochrome card with lots of glitter...I coloured her very softly with my distress inks and all the details of colours, papers etc are on my blog if you would like to pop by...if anyone need any other questions answered please just leave a comment and I will do my best to answer you...have a fantastic day whatever you are up too today

Peace Angel

Hello Everyone! Jane here today and I have a card to share with you today which I made using one the beautiful Diane Duda stamps which are available from Funky Kits. This image is called Peace Angel and you can buy her here. I first stamped my image onto some of the gridded Gorjuss Girls paper and then onto white card. I coloured the image with my Promarkers and added some glitter glue to the Angel's wings and halo.

I added some ribbon and a little crochet flower I bought from a lovely little craft shop in Greenwich and also added a pearl swirl and a wooden heart button.

Here is a close up of my coloured image. I love the sweet little bird she is holding. She looks so serene and peaceful and is perfect for those hard to make Sympathy or Thinking of You cards. I hope you have a lovely Wednesday.

An angel for a cause

Hello everyone!

Here's Kathrin today sharing another card with you and yes, it's once again a christmas card.

This beautiful angel stamp is an older one and it was brought out for a cause.

It was one of the breast cancer awarness stamps and all the money that was earned with this 

was donated.. 

So I thought this stamps is too precious to not use it - not to mention that I really love it. 

And so I picked this beautiful angel to go on my christmas card today.

She was colored with Distress Inks, her wings got covered with Stickles.

And of course I needed some stars to go with this.

The stars and the cloud were cut from a shimmery cardstock so they sparkle. Not much, just enough to put some interest on those details.

I didn't add a sentiment, just liked it better without it.

Hope you like my card and I was able to inspire you to get out this beautiful angel from the drawer it might have been sitting in since some time now and ink it up.

Peace Angel...

Good morning its my turn to show you some sugar today...doesn't everyone need a Peace Angel sometime and this Diane Duba beauty is perfect isn't she...so beautifully ethereal...I coloured her with distress inks and teamed her up with these stunning papers from DCWV....I think this beautiful stamp would be wonderful for a Christening card or even a get well soon card don't you...all the details are on my blog as always..enjoy your day everyone and thanks for stopping by

Bunny Cuddles

Hello Everyone! Jane here today and I have dug out one of my older Sugar Nellie stamps to showcase on a card this week. The stamp I have used on my card is by Diane Duda and is called 'Bunny'. She is available at a Bargain price here from Funky Kits. I have coloured her in with my Promarkers in shades of pinks and browns and cut her out into a rectangle before distressing and sewing aroud the edges.

The papers I have used on my card are from various different My Mind's Eye pads and were in my scraps box. I added some sewing to tie all the papers together and matted them onto pink cardstock. I stamped a 'Paper Smooches' sentiment straight onto the backing papers before adding them to my card. I added a lovely bow using some pretty pink ribbon and lots of flowers and finished with a tiny wooden button and some stick on pearls.

Here is a close up of my image, I added a little touch of glitter to the bow in her hair and a little gem as the button on her dress. I coloured the bunny so she is wearing a matching dress. I hope you have enjoyed seeing one of the older Sugar Nellie stamps, there are so many ranges of gorgeous stamps to play with at Funky Kits, which range is your favourite? Please let me know in a comment on this post, I would love to know which range is your favourite and why...
Have a lovely Wednesday!
Jane
