Ballet Student

Hello Everyone! Jane here today with a card made using one of the fabulous new Simply Adorables digis which were released this weekend at Funky Kits. The image I have used on my card is called Ballet Student and is available here.


I used Echo Park papers and a sentiment by Paper Smooches and coloured my image with Promarkers and Graph'it markers before I cut her out leaving a small border and adding her to my card with foam pads. I then added lots of lovely embellishments from my stash.


Here is a close up of my image, she was so lovely to colour in. I added glitter glue to her dress as a finishing touch. I hope you have a lovely Wednesday!

Christmas...in July?! Why not?!

Happy Monday all you sweet little elves!! Pat Frank here checking in to see what you'be been up to! Oh, and of course, I have another new Sugar Nellie DT project to share with you all! But first, I have to ask...did you have a great time at Saturday's "Summer Adorables" Blog Hop?! The new images are...well, they're ADORABLE! And they're digis...and they're available right now HERE at Funky Kits...and, because they're digital images, instant gratification!  Ya gotta love that!!

Now...let's talk about Christmas and Winter Holidays, shall we? How many of you have started your Christmas/Winter Holiday cards? This makes #3 for me! Wheet whoooo! Take a look...


Yep...as tempting as it was for me to create something summery with the new "Summer Adorables"...or those precious fairies from the "Return to Fairy Glen" stamp collection, I just had to ink up this quirky little "Pointsettia Girl" stamp by Leanne Ellis! She's available HERE at Funky Kits.

Once again, I colored this image with Copic Sketch markers...then deepened the shading a bit with colored pencils! Here's another, kind of "artsy" angle...


I do so love making "shabby chic" cards with my Leanne Ellis stamps...and I think this card is definitely shabby chic! I hope you've enjoyed looking at my latest Sugar Nellie project!! If you'd like more info on this card plus a look at a few more pics, please visit my blog HERE!!

Ooooh...please leave a comment telling us just how many 2013 Winter Holiday cards you've made so far! And...have a fabulous week!! Hugs...until next time.

SOS - Much Excitment

Good morning my lovelies, how as your week been. Creativity is not at the forefront of my week because for a rare summer its hot and we have headed to the beach most days.

I am still working in the pop up shop for a couple of days each week, luving it!

The House of Sugar has had a few big deliveries that Kate is working her way through between this months magazine submission for Sugar Nellie, yes its Christmas stamps this time, Christmas in July!

Much excitement as the four new Summer Adorable are launched, the DT as always do a magnificent job, they are very cleaver girls and that is why they are on our DT. A huge thank to you all and to Gayle who keeps you all motivated, excellent job all round.

But our customers too are excited by these four digital stamps. It's so quick with digital, no post to wait for and no ink to smudge up.

Todays card is by Jacqueline Bourne Jacqueline Bourne and was posted up on the Facebook group last night, how quick was that.
Beautiful card Jacqueline, lovely and soft to match this darling girl.

If you are good at desk top publishing you can get two stamps from one image by just using a head shot. Once we sold them seperatly but I think by now you are all clever enough to do that yourselfs.

blogger is giving me problems today so i am stopping here.

have a great Sunday and I will catch you again soon

Yippee!

The day is finally here, and I didn’t jinx the launch because, the sun is still shining here in my little part of Scotland!

It’s really hot here so, lots of colouring will be done in the garden with these super sweet little digi stamps..

There are four in all, and you can find them all at Funky Kits right 


Now it wouldn’t be a Sugar Nellie launch without a launch day hop...

So without further ado, I will send you off ‘across the pond’ to


who will point you in the direction of our other DT members and very special guests however,
should you get a little lost along the way, the full hop order is at the bottom of this post.

Now, it wouldn’t be a Sugar Nellie launch without a little sugar candy up for grabs so, I want to see you leave our lovely ladies
some love along the way and I’d like you to come back and leave me a comment on this post telling me your favourite of the four adorable digi’s.

My goodness it’s getting hot in here…..cool drinks at the ready?
best hop along quickly, before we all melt! 

Enjoy your weekend

Luv’n’Hugs

Just Because

Good morning and happy Friday to all of you!  I thought I would share one of the new Fairie Glen fairies with you today. 
 
 
This little sweetie is called No Shell Like Home and isn't she a beautiful fairy?  I have colored her with copics and colored pencils and then sprinkled Glamour Dust on her wings and her flowers.  I added a flourish and some flowers with pearls.  You can find the entire fairy collection over at Funky Kits.


And don't forget to join us tomorrow at 10 am.  I just know you're going to love our new "Summer Adorables"!
 
Thank you for stopping by!
 
Hugs, Anita
